I was gonna stop in today for a sandwich and possibly some deli sides, but as I walked in, the…read moreowner was involved with two of his female employees, berating them for what I can only guess is not mopping the floor correctly. When he was done, the ladies walked over to me and asked what they could get me. I promptly told them "nothing,I don't appreciate the way the owner of this business was talking to his employees, he's a ja**off and wouldn't support someone like that." Upon walking out the door, the owner asked me who the f**k I thought I was. I told him "I WAS a customer". He then proceeded to follow me out door while cursing at me . His behavior and treatment of his employees was incredibly disturbing and completely uncalled for. I will never support a business owner like this. I hope his employees know that there are a lot more jobs and business owners who will treat them with dignity and respect. And if these employees were family members, well, that would be a whole other review. Response to the owners response I'm gonna take this as a threat and make a police report. Thank you for showing us all.

You won't get rich shopping at Carpathia but they have most every Polish or Eastern European ethnic…read morespecialty item you might desire. It's not like they're selling Bulgari jewelry or begula caviar but bring lots of cold cash to shop here because you'll need it. If you're retired or have a big family, you just might have to take out a second mortgage to stock the frig and your food pantry shopping at Carpathia, no lie. I know we've had inflation but some of their prices and the small portion sizes go well beyond that. But if you're willing to blow your paycheck on a good Polish sausage, you've arrived at the right deli but the food is very good, if you can afford it.

It was like an old school grocery stop with a deli shop that was busy when I walked in. Had me curious enough to come back and try a lunch sandwich from here. This meat market has the soup bones for my dogs for a decent price also. I never wrote a review with the intent of a follow up review as I have to come back, grab a sandwich and buy some ready made family style dinner trays that looked like it would make my cooking nights way easier! The lady Çathy up front was extremely knowledgeable of the place. I will be back very soon to provide an update on the family dishes and sandwiches! Can't wait!

Things that seemed strange, there was a sign on the door stating no outside food or beverages and I brought in my own water. The cashier looked at it while I ordered and she kept looking at it..I almost felt like she was debating on whether she should tell me I couldn't bring in my water....ultimately she didn't say anything about it..but it was strange. While I was waiting I witnessed a man order and pay and then decide he wanted a cookie..he was still standing at the counter. The same cashier said I'll ring it up for you this time but next time you have to get back in line. Again this just seemed strange. I don't know what's going on here but to nitpick about someone ordering a salad but not want them to bring in their own water or make someone get back in like to purchase an additional quick item seems pretty absurd to me.

The cookies from Butterfingers bakery are a seasonal highlight. I volunteer with an organization…read morethat hosts a holiday appreciation open-house each year featuring THE BEST cookie platter from this family-run bakery. From traditional Christmas cookies to new twists on the classics (sugar cookie with crushed peppermint pieces) these cookies are not overly sweet, crisp, and delectably melt-in-the mouth with the perfect proportion of textured-add ins. I have even been known to take a couple in a plastic bag to savor later. In the last few years, cookie chains have sprung up, bringing with them cult followings for their elaborate, often hubcap-sized tricked out confections and rotating flavors. Against this backdrop, Butterfingers stays true to the classics, turning out quality products, year after year, that stir nostalgia and evoke positive emotions, much like you-know-who's madeleines. (Sorry...I swore I could make it through a cookie discussion without mentioning Proust, but I couldn't.)

Updating my review as I visited a few weeks ago and was very happy with my visit!…read more They completely renovated their store and it looks wonderful. They also updated their menu to specify prices for a small and a large sandwich and even have the bread clearly on display near the menu. I really appreciated seeing that so much! The lady who I assumed was the owner/manager was very kind and got me my order of a large croissant sandwich meal , key lime pie bar, and an iced coffee. The sandwich was delicious and I upgraded it to a meal. I kind of panic picked my side and chose the potato salad. It is a very eggy-based potato salad and is definitely the choice for you if you prefer that! And the sandwich was great and I was pretty happy. The key lime pie bar had a perfect ratio of key lime mixture and the shortbread crust. I love crust and appreciated that there was the perfect amount to enjoy both flavors. The texture of the key lime pie + lemon bars are more whipped/cohesive compared to the usual lemon bar's acidic softness. I think this would be perfect for people with food sensory issues or just people who don't like the texture of normal lemon bars. Overall, I was pretty happy with my visit and glad to update it with a way better review :) So glad to see how nice the business looks and appreciate the management!
