They have old school service and smiles. Great meat, friendly butchers and the folks at the front are super. We buy Curley's BBQ sauce here. Plus they have wonderful local KC bread and Amish eggs, farm fresh for $5.99 a dozen. High quality meat here, cut to spec and they have bigger quantity value packs you can order ahead and fill the freezer. The building is old, but spotless. Love the HUGE selection of wood and pellets here. It's amazing!! Buy local. This is a neighborhood gem!!

Nice meat house you can find various cuts of meat. Guys at meat counter are very helpfulread more

The shop is small and there's not any seating (it's to go/take out only) but I was instantly greeted by the staff...and the large pastry case with tantalizing goodies. After inner dialogue that I indeed should not purchase one of everything due to potentials negative consequences on my waistline, I settled on 3 chocolate chip cannolis, one slice of lemon shortcake and one loaf of sourdough bread (don't worry, I shared). The cannolis were delicious and the shell was thicker and crisper than I'm used to. The lemon shortcake was not overly sweet, which was amazing and was very lemony (which I loved)! The sourdough was delicious and made perfect grilled cheeses! Although I didn't order any, they had a great selection of savory lunch items. Definitely next time! (A helpful hint - if you're trying to indulge in a cannoli on the way home in a vehicle, I suggest skipping the powdered sugar. The evidence was very hard to hide )

Great signage, walked in and wow bang the amount of different items to choose from really was something else. The place was decorated very nice and the people were just wonderfully wonderful! While I could not buy anything because I have a dairy allergy and gluten intolerant my stomach started aching and mouth started to water. It really smelled and looked that good to think about possibly worth getting sick over trying some of this. I will bring people to the bakery / deli so they can try it. My bet is it will be a hit for anyone who tries it. I wish I took pics of the food you would be amazed. The portion sizes they had on all their items were very nice and prices were not gourmet prices they were right on. now for me they said they do gluten free I just need dairy free as well. Most people who are dairy allergy end up being gluten free.. google it.. and most dairy free or gluten free baking packages usually have both. So for my sake I hope they can manage to do some from time to time which they said they would. till then those non allergy people - enjoy this place.

Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and our food came out quickly. I ordered a turkey club while my dad got one as well, and unfortunately we both had the same issue. The turkey was on the dry side, and it was sliced much thicker than I personally prefer. I tend to like a thinner deli-style sliced turkey, so it just wasn't my favorite sandwich. My mom ordered one of the salads though, and honestly it looked better than my sandwich. It was loaded with fresh toppings, and she said the ranch was excellent. If I come back, I'd probably skip the sandwich altogether and give one of the salads a try. Overall, I can definitely appreciate what they're going for. The prices are fantastic, honestly unheard of in present day, and that's the main reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 3. It's a true local spot, and I wouldn't mind giving it another chance to try something different from the menu.

Place is kinda bodega or neighborhood grocery, so you can get all manner of packaged food.
