    There's something a little bit magic about this place. It's kind of a timeless slice of America... black and white checkerboard tile, old school diner counter, even a jukebox. This place has probably served the same menu your whole life. That should make you feel happy. The food is exactly what it needs to be..well made classics. Chicago dogs are perfect. Steamed up and topped just right. Definitely worth a stop if you are in the area.

    Loose meat cheeseburger

    When I go to the Pierogi fest, I always have to stop here. I love their loose meat cheeseburger. I can't get it anywhere else. It's like having a sloppy joe w/o the sloppy! Good fries and sandwiches.

    my first loose meat sandwich EVER.... YUM !

    This place was beyond fabulous! Great staff as welcoming as an old friend. Had my 1st loose meet sandwich and it was delicious! Served hot and fresh right in front of you, plus crispy fries and free refills on my diet Coke. I will be back here every time I visit friends in Hammond! Thank you Madvek's for a wonderful lunch time experience!

    This is the NORTH SIDE of the building (taken from the parking lot). Plenty of parking.

    I've been searching for a good butcher in the area, and was happy with the ground beef on my first…read morevisit. Was also very pleased with their selection and service. It's unfortunate that I receive the exact opposite on my second visit. I was waiting to be helped and they took two white men, and an elder white lady before me, even though I was acknowledged. I can understand if they're older and they wanna be helpful first, but there is no communication on this.... And then I saw the sign. I should've taken a photo cause it was a little startling, and unfortunate that they expressed so openly their political position and hate for Wokeness. I've heard some stories how they are true MAGA and slightly racist, but you have to experience it for yourself. You have to give a place a chance. And it saddens me the way I was treated on my second time back. Folks everywhere are just so sad and upset these days, every life has been disrupted in someway the last 10 years for multiple reasons. It's stressful out here, but it's also stressful trying to get good quality food with all the regulation changes. I travel out of the country multiple times a year and American food is just the worst. So I'll keep searching for quality in both the product and in the customer service. In some small way, it's good to know a store position because I don't wanna give them my business. It's so weird to fight against progress. And it's even weirder to think Wokeness is a thing. Stay asleep.

    This place was intriguing. I came here on a recommendation. Put the address into my gps and off I…read morewent. It was like an old school grocery stop with a deli shop that was busy when I walked in. Had me curious enough to come back and try a lunch sandwich from here. This meat market has the soup bones for my dogs for a decent price also. I never wrote a review with the intent of a follow up review as I have to come back, grab a sandwich and buy some ready made family style dinner trays that looked like it would make my cooking nights way easier! The lady Çathy up front was extremely knowledgeable of the place. I will be back very soon to provide an update on the family dishes and sandwiches! Can't wait!
