    To go or a counter to eat there. Quick service on a VERY busy day. Russian dressing was a little heavy for clean eating but it is served with a fork. Combo comes with plain chips (no other flavors) and can of pop. Good serving of corned beef.

    Sometimes a pastrami just hits that craving. Thank god for this place. The coleslaw, Russian dressing, and super delicate pastrami was so on point. Wow. So glad to have lunch here and tackle my craving!

    Glad I shared half a sandwich with my friend to try both the bologna and corned beef. Busy food hall with tons of options. You cannot go wrong with any choices.

    Roast beef sandwich
    Michael B.

    So many places to choose from in Reading Terminal market, but I had the rare roast beef sandwich two days in a row for lunch. Great counter service. Fun to watch the sandwiches being made while eating.

    The Roast Beef & Swiss was delicious.  I substituted Mayo for the spread. YUM

    We visited this deli in the Reading Market. There were so many choices of places to eat. The photos of the sandwiches drew me in and I was not disappointed. I had a Delicious roast beef sandwich on rye. The rye bread didn't really taste like rye bread, but that was ok because the roast beef was amazing! I could eat a sandwich at this place everyday and be very happy. The sandwich came with chips and a drink, which surprised me because it was inexpensive for all that you get. I paid an extra dollar to get a bottled vanilla soda. It was soooo good! My friend had a corned beef sandwich and he loved it. Our server was fast and friendly. Great service. The atmosphere of the Market was fun. So Many Choices! Yummy vanilla soda in a bottle Reasonable price

    "What's the difference between a corned beef and a pastrami?" I asked. "Ummmm." Hard think from the person manning the counter. "I think pastrami has more spices in it." Good enough of an answer that I went for the pastrami combo, which came with the requisite slab of juicy deli pickle, a can of soda and a bag of potato chips for about $12. I loooooved the homemade Russian dressing dressing, the rye bread was just the right texture and all in all, it was hearty, tasty and filled me up. Located in the front of the RTM (Reading Terminal Market) with counter seating.

    Can't beat the prices here. $8 for a Pastrami Special Sandwich is a steal. The pastrami is good, although I like mine a little thicker sliced usually. Not sure about the usage of white bread. Was a little too soft for this type of sandwich and missed the standard rye taste of a pastrami sandwich. Also probably need to dial back the amount of Russian Dressing used. Service was good and friendly. Value: 5/5 Food: 3/5 Overall I'll give them a 4

    Corned Beef special with Swiss. Smoked Turkey special with provolone and tomato
    Spencer S.

    Very friendly counter service. Made sure the order was correct and recommended a few things to get v not get with the sandwiches. Ended up getting the smoked turkey special with provolone and tomato as well as the corned beef special with swiss. I'm usually a corned beef guy, but the smoked turkey was just on a different level. Very very good sandwiches. Reasonable price. Two things I wish were different: melt the cheese and not being located along the busy corridor of Reading Terminal Market

    Jalapeno cheddar cheese wrap with Salome egg and cheese. Onside grapes! Absolutely DELICIOUS. Great SERVICE

    Pastrami Special
    Andy Y.

    Absolutely delicious! Located within the famous Reading Terminal Market closest to the entrance off North 12th Street. There are limited seating for dining-in and a take-out order line. Once ordered, the sandwich was prepared fresh and within minutes packed and ready to go! The pastrami was seasoned perfectly and the dressing was delicious. The portions are hefty for the price. Of the many places available to eat, I am glad I stopped here. Will definitely be back for more. Enjoy!

    Pastrami Special

    Very good Pastrami Special sandwich today at Hatville Deli. Food came out quick, service was helpful, prices were cheap. Only real qualms were that 1) the to-go sandwich was a bit messy and 2) it would have been better with a toasted or warm element to it. Still a really good option in Reading Terminal Market!

    Pastrami special
    Arthur M.

    Best pastrami sandwich at Reading market! Service was quick and friendly and food was served fast and fresh.

    Allen Y.

    Came here to try their famous cold pastrami sandwich Pros: even though the pastrami was cold, the mix of cheesy slaw and meat had a great balance of flavor. The service was fast and friendly Cons: I was not the biggest fan of the cold options but I believe this establishment is mainly for breakfast foods and coffee

    Ok pastrami, nothing special. More similar to something you'd get from a grocery store deli than a true deli.

I had the turkey on wheat with American cheese. I opted for the Russian dressing since I'm not a fan of hot deli mustard. I had it toasted panini style. The service was quick, friendly and you could tell they took pride in what they were doing. My wife opted for the pastrami on wheat with may and provolone cheese, also panini style. She had potato salad as a side and the coleslaw. Both were good. The Marketplace is a very large (formerly Penn Station) turned open market area covering food, produce, meat market, flowers, artisans etc. A wonderful place. The food was awesome the meats were amazingly tasty and worth the price!

We originally ordered just one sandwich to share, but it was so good that we ended up going back for another one. The pastrami was flavorful, tender, and packed generously into the sandwich. We also got lucky because there weren't too many people when we arrived, so we were able to grab seats right at the counter and enjoy everything fresh. Highly recommended if you're visiting Reading Market, definitely one of the standout food spots there.

I'm sure I left stuff out but you have to immerse yourself in it to love it as much as I do. I found that their lunch hero's and focaccia sandwiches are the best in the city for under 15USD each. Every employee is helpful and goes out of their way to make sure things go well. There are a few tables inside and outside to enjoy your meal and snacks. 5 stars!

The incredible cheese selection, the curated Italian pastas, wines, and specialty foods -- it's a food lover's dream. I felt like a kid in a candy store, completely mesmerized by all the options. The staff was friendly, and everything looked so high-quality and well-presented. I was genuinely tempted to buy an assortment of cheeses to bring back home, and I still kind of regret not doing it. That said, I did have one experience that made me pause. Later that evening, as I walked by after closing hours, I peeked through the window to show my husband the shop I had visited earlier and I happened to see a few mice moving around inside the store. It was definitely unsettling to witness, especially after seeing all the exposed cheeses and displays earlier in the day. I completely understand that older city buildings (especially in places like Philly) have their challenges, and I'm sure this isn't unique to Di Bruno Bros. Still, as a customer, it did take away from the magic of my earlier visit. Overall, Di Bruno Bros. is a gorgeous and well-curated Italian market that I'd recommend visiting for its atmosphere and specialty goods but I hope management is able to address cleanliness concerns, because the store truly deserves to shine as brightly as its reputation.
