DeMARCO'S has been a local favorite for 50 years, and it's easy to see why! This family-owned…read moreItalian market truly does it all -- and does it well. They have a legendary deli counter loaded with subs, wraps, cheeses, soups, sauces, and their famous fresh-baked bread. The butcher counter is top-notch -- and you've got to try the chicken cutlets, they're some of the best around. Their fresh mozzarella is made daily, and the baked goods (bread, pastries, cookies) are always fresh and impossible to resist. They even have a well-stocked pantry section with all the Italian essentials -- from jars of their own house-made sauce to Antonio's pasta and more. You can even grab Nasto's ice cream for dessert! One of my favorite things about DeMARCO'S is their family dinners, which feed 4-6 people and make weeknights so much easier. I tried the Sunday Sauce Family Dinner and it absolutely did not disappoint -- hearty, homemade, and full of that comforting Italian flavor. And if you're hosting a gathering or event, their catering menu is enormous -- seriously one of the biggest and most impressive I've ever seen. Whatever you need, they've got it covered. DeMARCO'S is one of those places that feels like home -- friendly service, fresh ingredients, and food made with care. Congratulations to this Aberdeen staple on 50 delicious years... and here's to many more!

As you enter, there is an Italian bakery to the left that was filled with sfogliatelle, canolli's and Italian cookies.

That alone makes the sandwiches more filling than a lot of other bagel spots around. My biggest issue is the everything bagel as it's a little too salty for me and on the thicker, denser side. I personally prefer a bagel that's a bit lighter and less heavy. They also offer flat bagels, which I didn't get to try, but I think I probably would've liked those better assuming they're not as salty. Overall still a solid local breakfast option.
