“Just say gluten free and you don’t need to explain what you can and can’t have”. If passing through bring a cooler. Premade chicken parm, eggplant parm, sausage and peppers, soups, frozen meals…. Tons of sandwich options. Nice to have authentic Italian food that’s super GF safe.

This is a great spot. I am gluten and dairy free and I had breakfast sandwiches two days in a row. I jad the egg and chorizo and the egg and bacon. I had them on a long roll. So delicious. The coffee was very good and they had almond milk. We were in the area for a wedding.

Overall Great experience. I had a Egg sandwich on gluten free bread. It was the best breakfast I've has since finding out I had celiac. The owner said his son has celiac so they take all the proper precautions with cross contamination. Their selection of drinks and snacks etc were all amazing! Also plenty of seating in their dining area. I cannot recommend this place enough! I will be stopping by any chance I get!

One of the best gluten free sandwiches that tastes truly homemade and made with love. Like it hugs you each time! Not mass produced or taken out of a pre packaged meal. The owners are super nice as well and they try very hard to make sure the food is safe and fresh!

Great experience! I asked about the gluten-free menu options and was told almost everything could be made gluten-free. Then the owner came out and told me that his son has celiac disease. They are super aware of cross contact and have a wide variety of both sandwich options and prepared foods. They also have cookies and some other frozen desserts. I highly recommend this place!

Update Sept 2022: still perfect. I come once a week for a Taylor Egg & Cheese or cheesesteak, never glutened.

Great food, friendly staff. Separate prep area for gluten free. They also have pre-made meals in a special GF fridge to buy and take home.

I had a philly cheesesteak and no symptoms 14 hrs later. Definitely a must try!!

This place is amazing. Dedicated kitchen space, fridge, equipment, everything. If you check their website, they have a very in-depth coverage of celiac and gluten sensitivity. I've had an italian combo and it was amazing, the bread is sooo good. Also had a bacon and egg sandwich which was also delicious too. Recommend this place to any celiac, 1,000,000%!!!

I can't say enough about Anthony Pascarella and staff at his little deli in Chatham. It was reassuring to know that my daughter was safe from CC and nice that she had many bread options to choose from. Best of all was the kindness and concern that Anthony showed for my daughter, sharing stories of his family's experience having a son with Celiac. He even gave her a giant GF chocolate chip cookie on the house. We purchased a few GF items out of the freezer case to take with us... they have bakery items, pastas and other Italian foods like meatballs. The space may be small but the owner has a huge heart.
