With the big box stores, chain restaurants, and gas stations, you wouldn't know where you were if you didn't see a few signs start with "Adirondack..." In the sea of all that, we wanted to find a local spot for lunch, and we're glad Yelp brought us here. We just wanted a couple of sandwiches. The lady running things highly recommended the Chicken Philly (the kid with her seemed too nervous to recommend anything), and we also got a bacon egg and cheese (SPK). Both folks behind the counter were so friendly, and during the 15 minutes or so we waited for our sandwiches, we were the only people they didn't greet by name. They obviously have a number of regulars, and it's no wonder, because the sandwiches were great. I actually thought the BEC was outstanding, and better than the Chicken Philly. In addition to good sandwiches, they've got local pies for sale, all the chips and drinks you'd ever want, and tables inside and out if you decide not to take your food home with you. It's obviously a local gem, and I'm glad we came by.

Dixie's Deli & More is an informal sandwich eatery & snack shop in Fultonville, located on NY 30A,…read moreclose to the NY Thruway overpass and Exit 28 is about a mile away via Riverside Drive. The food menu offerings include breakfast sandwiches (all day), hot & cold sandwiches & subs, burgers, hot dogs, soups, chili, deli salads, pizza (14"/16"), fries, onion rings, mozzarella sticks, and chicken wings. They use Boars Head meats here. They also sell candy bars, small candies, chips, cold drinks, coffee and tea. The place is very cozy inside which is order at the counter with a few finished tree trunk cut table seating and seating along the front window and a collection of antiques & toys in the store. I stopped by Dixie's for lunch takeout. I got a Hot Dog with Meat Sauce, Mustard & Onions ($3.50 plus tax) and a Large Mac & Cheese ($6.99 plus tax). The food was ready to go in under 10 minutes. The mac & cheese was a dense mix of soft elbows and a semi rich cheese blend. The firm hot dog was loaded with seasoned ground beef, mustard & onions on a standard hot dog roll, very similar to the Michigans I've enjoyed in the North Country (NY). Dixie's Deli was a good call for lunch. I will have to stop by again when I'm traveling through the Mohawk Valley.

It's a proper country one-stop-shop convenience store + deli: sandwiches & salads, coffee, breakfast, wine & liquor, firewood, ice, and some basic outdoor supplies you might find yourself needing in a pinch. I got a 12" Italian sub (swapped out turkey for pepperoni) with a side of vinegar and oil, and it was very good and fresh. Well located and a great pit stop for picking up supplies before you head out for your Adirondacks adventures. Open from 8am-7pm daily.

We ordered a pepperoni sandwich for the kids, a ham sandwich for my husband and I had turkey. Mine was turkey on rye with cheese and mustard and is just like an NYC deli.

I have fond memories of eating the Sicilian-style pizza as a child and then as an adult, out on my own before I moved away. Coming back at almost 50, I was just hoping the food would kind of be the same, but it was like a taste of childhood. The pizza is the best I've found in Gloversville and Al's is still Al's. Either you're a local and know the spot, have been told about the spot, or did a search online because they pizza shop itself has no sign to lead the way. Their bread is also phenomenal and exactly like my youth as well. Thank you for the trip down memory lane. Your pizza is still in my top three ever eaten! We'll be back!

The interior of this cozy old pizza shop looks as though it's been under renovations for quite a while. The menu boards, fixtures, small grocery shelves are covered in plastic, brown paper/cardboard taped to the floor, and cardboard shaped cutouts hang on the walls and labeled with black marker with what's supposed to be hanging including clock, pictures, and several G'ville sports plaques. There are current NFL schedules taped on the glass counter for the Giants, Jets, and Bills. However, there are outdated The X-Factor/Pepsi promos in the store and depicts two ex-judges (Paula & Nicole) from the first season. Al's Pizzeria sells round and sheet pizzas, pizza slices, subs, cold salads, dinners, and homemade bread loaves at fair prices. In the cooler, bottled Pepsi products, cold beers, and milk are offered too. I ordered a 12 cut Sausage Sheet Pizza, which was ready in about 30 minutes as promised. I used an Entertainment coupon and the pizza was just under $8 with tax. The rectangular thin crust pizza had a light airy, but firm crust with thick crisp edges, ideal for breaking off into breadsticks. The pizza had a good amount of thick tomato sauce, sprinkled with not too much mozzarella cheese and chunks of spicy ground Italian sausage. I enjoyed this good family style sausage pizza over several days for snacks and lunches. I would probably return here again if I wanted inexpensive slices of pizza, but I'm crossing my fingers with a small glimmer of hope that the pizza shop may be fully renovated on a future visit. As a previous reviewer noted several years ago, the shop was under construction then and it's still under construction today. I wouldn't hold my breath though.

Parking is somewhat spread out on the side and behind the building, but there should be space for everyone even when they're busy. There's quite a few tables outside for dining in nice weather.

My 12" Italian sub was very well made and quite thick with all the cold cuts and fixin's. It's definitely a filling meal. You have lots of options there for food and drink, and there's that large cooler on the side with pasta available for take-home. This place rates high on taste and convenience for me.

They also sell bread loaves, snacks, cold drinks and NYS maple syrup. The place offers takeout and there are also a few tables inside to enjoy your food. There is also a classic Multigame arcade machine which has Donkey Kong, Mario Bros, Mappy, and Burgertime. I stopped by Cargie's for dinner takeout on a quiet Saturday evening while driving through Richmondville. I ordered their dinner special which was Sausage ala Vodka ($15.99 plus tax) served with salad and dinner roll and also got a pound of homemade Macaroni Salad ($4.99 plus tax/lb) too. I enjoyed dinner back at the house. The Sausage ala Vodka had two Italian sausages over a tasty pink sauce mixed with soft ziti. The green salad in the same box was comprised of fresh iceberg lettuce, chopped tomatoes and red onions with a zesty Italian dressing. The dinner roll was soft and chewy. The Macaroni Salad (mayo based) had soft elbows with small bits of tomato and onions, a good cold deli salad on a hot day. The food I enjoyed was spot on! Next time I'm in the Cobleskill Richmondville area, I will definitely have to get off the highway and stop in at Cargie's again for one of their specialty sandwiches!
