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.

The chicken salad sandwich was the best I have ever had. Not overly creamy, just the right amount with plenty of flavor. The fresh greens and tomato in top was super fresh. The seeded buns were also top notch! I purchased two small steaks and cooked them up in the cast iron. It was undoubtedly the best steak I have ever had at home; it melted in my mouth! Just look at the marbling in the pictures. The meat at the store is some of the best quality I have seen and tasted.

The Fresh Market: Hanging With Mom -- Went In for One Thing, Left With Two Bags…read more Takeaway: I planned for one item. Mom planned for a full‑cart expedition. The Fresh Market bakery planned my financial downfall. I'd always wanted to try The Fresh Market, and since Mom and I were close to the Gambrills, Maryland location, we decided to stop in. The mission was simple: get one thing. I even grabbed the small carry cart to prove I was serious. That was mistake number one. The moment we walked in, Mom stopped at the very first display like she had been hired to inspect it. That's when I realized she set me up. I picked the wrong cart, and she knew it. The store itself was impressive -- bright, clean, and packed with every food item known to mankind. Honestly, it was a little too packed. Every aisle felt like it was competing for "Most Stuff in One Space." But everything looked fresh: Meat Seafood Produce All looked like they were posing for a magazine. The Bakery: The Trap We Walked Into The bakery was the star of the store -- managed by a Black woman who was professional, friendly, and on point. She stopped what she was doing to check on us, and that's when the trouble began. The bakery was loaded with: Cakes Cupcakes Cookies Desserts that looked illegal And they were running a sale. A dangerous, wallet‑threatening sale. Mom and I stood there for what felt like hours, mouths watering, debating desserts like we were choosing stocks. We bought way too many. I blame the sale. And the frosting. And the smell. And the display. Basically everything. The Full Store Tour (Thanks to Mom) Mom and her walker inspected every single section of the store. Every. Single. One.I'm convinced she saw things the employees didn't know existed. By the time we reached checkout, my carry cart was overflowing like I had robbed the place. Another Black woman walked us to her register -- also professional, also engaging, also packing our bags like she was building a sculpture. She explained the discounts we received, which made the total hurt a little less. We walked out with two full bags, my hands full, and my "one item" dream shattered. Final Verdict The Fresh Market delivered: Great products Great staff Great bakery Great discounts And a great reminder that I should never trust myself with a small cart We'll definitely be returning...but next time, Mom might have to stay in the car

While in town, we wandered in wishing we had already grabbed some baked goods earlier in the day. And with a mission to acquire some meat for the grill later in the day. Immediately we were met with a variety of whoopie pies (we got a traditional one and cookie one, both delicious), and most of all the BEST cinnamon roll we have ever feasted on. Not only was it tremendous but it was perfectly gooey, and the buttercream (or at least that's how it tasted) frosting in lieu of traditional icing blew it out of the water. We also grabbed some chicken bacon burgers which we grilled up and really enjoyed. Just wished the patties were initially bigger. We ended up putting 2 and 2 (out of the 4) together to make burgers which would actually survive the grill. In general the selection is everything you'd imagine in Amish country combined into one little place. Prices were excellent, quality was great. Definitely stop in!
