Galvinell Meat - old world Italian

Best turkey sub sandwich in the world??? Hear me out (and stop off if you road trip up/down i-95…read morelike I do). We all know the typical deli meat- those round blobs of crap shrink wrapped in plastic sitting under the display case. It's turkey. Right? Is it??? It's smooth and round and textureless... But we buy the stuff anyway. Mostly tastes the part I guess. THIS AINT THAT MY FRIEND! Me and my sister ordered a classic turkey (w everything) and a Bobbie (w cranberry and stuffing) for a little kayak trip out on the Susque. When we unwrapped our subs for lunch... WOAH WTF is in here?? REAL TURKEY MY FRIEND! Chopped and shredded pieces of actual factual turkey meat. Not that squishy bullshxt from the supermarket deli counter. CANNOT BEAT a sandwich like that. Or a hoagie or whatever ya call em up in Havre de Grace. Next time I am bringing home a flank steak too because this is really a butcher shop doing god's work on the hoagie front.

TLDR: Galvinell Meat in Havre de Grace lives up to the hype. Massive, beautifully built hoagies,…read morefriendly staff, and a butcher counter full of unique house made offerings. Easily in the conversation for best hoagies in Maryland. This butcher has been on my short list for a while thanks to its recent fame in the Hoagie Gurus Facebook group, where their Old World Italian has become something of a legend. After finally making the trip, I can confidently say it deserves every bit of that buzz. We stopped in on a Saturday around lunchtime and the place had a steady flow of customers. My wife and I ordered the Old World Italian hoagie along with a hot roast beef and gravy grinder that was running as a special. While we waited, the staff was incredibly nice and helpful, and we took some time to browse their butcher case. Everything looked fantastic, and we ended up leaving with several packs of house made sausages that were too interesting to pass up, including a chicken crab cake sausage and a brisket cheddar. After a short wait, our subs were ready and they were both absolute units. Since they have a few two tops for the lunch crowd, we did not even make it to the car before digging in. The Old World Italian was exactly what I hoped for. Piled high with Italian meats and cheeses, sharp provolone, roasted red peppers, and prosciutto, all served on a sturdy yet soft seeded roll. The meats were perfectly layered so every bite was balanced and flavorful. No dead spots, no overwhelming salt bombs, just a beautifully constructed hoagie. The hot roast beef grinder was equally impressive. Freshly shaved beef, rich gravy, and melted provolone came together in a way that felt indulgent without being heavy. Comfort food done right. Between the quality of the sandwiches, the welcoming staff, and the incredible butcher offerings, Galvinell Meat is a destination. It is absolutely worth the drive and firmly belongs in any serious Maryland hoagie conversation.

Hemps is the best place for any kind of beef. I get all my steaks and hamburger when I'm…read moreentertaining. Everyone raves about the quality of the food, even the burgers are noticeably great. Prices are very similar to the grocery store and much better taste and quality. The vibe at Hemps is great too. They all have fun while offering great customer service and recommendations. Oh and their homemade sausage is really good. I've heard other homemade stuff is very good too. The GO TO place for meat.

This place is amazing!!! We have been coming here for 20 years and have never had a bad experience…read more The meat has always been top notch and the staff is so helpful and friendly even though they are usually very busy. I ordered a prime rib to smoke for Christmas dinner and set the date to pick it up and discussed how many pounds I needed for the amount of people we are having. I got there when they opened and there was already a line around the corner. No fear, they have so many people there I was in and out in 20 minutes. Told them we added two more people on and he recommended how much and cut it. I asked him to slice off the bone and butcher twine it back together. They had told me there was $5 charge when I preordered on the phone and I told him that was fine. When I told the guy today that I was smoking it and would cut off the twine, season the part where the bone was and twine back together, he told me he would net it after cutting the bone off and didn't charged me. This is choice meat but it is as close to prime as can be and their price was cheaper than other butchers I checked with.
