| - This place is a true gem, just like their original store! Both locations are owned and operated by brothers from Detroit (repping the Red Wings will get you bonus points at the store lol), and this place is the classic old-school neighborhood convenience store - a rarity nowadays in our corporate world. Imagine if Cheers the bar, was a convenience store; this is it. The staff know most people by name as they walk in! And don't be surprised if you find some celebrities like Shane Doan or Kurt Warner in there sometimes. Why? because of the amazing sandwiches! Sure the store has a good selection of convenience items - snacks, toiletries, newspapers, some groceries, and a large selection of wine & beer etc... things you would find at Circle K, but what sets the place apart are the sandwiches. The store has a small deli inside, and they make some of the very best subs and sandwiches in the valley! SO GOOD. They bake their own bread daily. All meats are quality. The way they assemble the sandwiches is true craftsmanship. I have eaten there countless times, and not once was disappointed with what they made me. My favorites are The Shane Doan (not on the menu, but its a glorious roast beef melt), the Beefstrami, the Caesar chicken (so refreshing!), and my girlfriend is addicted to the Double Play turkey on rye. I cannot emphasize more how tasty their sandwiches are and how welcoming the owners are! I even consider them friends now, they are that cool.
So, if you live around the 101 & Frank Lloyd Wright, near Cactus/Shea.. there is no reason to shop for conveniences at any other place! You will be hooked on their sandwiches!!!
