    Italian Sub
    Jack M.

    This was a perfectly fine Italian sun. The bread is soft and chewy. The meats are just enough to fill you up. The toppings are fresh. There's nothing to really impress you in this sub, but it's a predictable execution like you might expect from Wawa or Subway.

    I decided to try this deli today for the first time and they didn't disappoint! I was in and out in 5 minutes! They were so friendly as soon as I walked in. I ordered the Italian sub and it is one of the best I have had in HDG. I'll definitely be going back soon to try more!

    We were driving south on 95 and veered off for Sams based on yelp reviews. Our expectations were kinda high and we were both quite hungry, and honestly we found Sam's to just be okay. Pretty much just a standard sub sandwich. The bread was quite soft and was probably the only thing that stood out. Wawa or the grocery store might have been a bit more convenient and been just as satisfying. Nice owners, and goofy neighborhood feel, but nothing to write home about.

    Doesn't look like much from the outside, but this place rocks!!!

    I've been eating at this deli for nearly as long as I've been alive. It is practically a HdG institution its been there for so long. The owners (which have changed a few times) have always been incredibly friendly. Their Italian sub is fantastic, and be sure to ask for extra hot peppers. I've also been a big fan of their turkey, and roast beef subs. The large sub is more than you will ever need to eat, and I have a HUGE appetite. Sam's has a great selection of chips and drinks to go with your order as well. The prices are beyond reasonable. Definitely try it out if you are in the area, and don't be scared off by its appearance. If it has been around for that long, there is a good reason.

    They close at 5pm but once the sell out of bread the business stops. Really good cheese steak. Next up is the Italian sub. Great service!

    TLDR: Galvinell Meat in Havre de Grace lives up to the hype. Massive, beautifully built hoagies,…read morefriendly staff, and a butcher counter full of unique house made offerings. Easily in the conversation for best hoagies in Maryland. This butcher has been on my short list for a while thanks to its recent fame in the Hoagie Gurus Facebook group, where their Old World Italian has become something of a legend. After finally making the trip, I can confidently say it deserves every bit of that buzz. We stopped in on a Saturday around lunchtime and the place had a steady flow of customers. My wife and I ordered the Old World Italian hoagie along with a hot roast beef and gravy grinder that was running as a special. While we waited, the staff was incredibly nice and helpful, and we took some time to browse their butcher case. Everything looked fantastic, and we ended up leaving with several packs of house made sausages that were too interesting to pass up, including a chicken crab cake sausage and a brisket cheddar. After a short wait, our subs were ready and they were both absolute units. Since they have a few two tops for the lunch crowd, we did not even make it to the car before digging in. The Old World Italian was exactly what I hoped for. Piled high with Italian meats and cheeses, sharp provolone, roasted red peppers, and prosciutto, all served on a sturdy yet soft seeded roll. The meats were perfectly layered so every bite was balanced and flavorful. No dead spots, no overwhelming salt bombs, just a beautifully constructed hoagie. The hot roast beef grinder was equally impressive. Freshly shaved beef, rich gravy, and melted provolone came together in a way that felt indulgent without being heavy. Comfort food done right. Between the quality of the sandwiches, the welcoming staff, and the incredible butcher offerings, Galvinell Meat is a destination. It is absolutely worth the drive and firmly belongs in any serious Maryland hoagie conversation.

    Just a heads up if you're using Waze, double check the address as I believe it took us to the…read moreactual butcher location rather than the shop. Otherwise, it's such an awesome spot! They have fresh meats including some frozen options for those not necessarily purchasing for the day of. We opted for the Italian sub and the hot roast beef and we did plan to eat this later but for the best chance tried it when we got it and both were delicious!! We also purchased some frozen options of various sausages and fresh sausages. I also highly recommend their crisp Apple ice tea! They do also offer some tables so if you choose to eat there you can! The staff were also super friendly! Would visit again!
