I come here every couple months to get a big order to pack our freezer and they always go above and beyond, and even help me load it in my car! They also sell raw food for animals, Reading Draft soda (my favorite), and stuff you can't find at the grocery store (bones, good beef jerky, etc.). Awesome local business - would give 10 stars if I could!

We try to always get our lion's share of meats here when we pass on through. Be sure to also try the smoked cheeses and other products. The bacon is amazing, the bologna (Lebanon, sweet and regular) is phenomenal, and the cheeses are fantastic. The unsung hero is the kielbasa; extremely lean, but exceptionally full of flavor and again that gentle smoked envelope all around it. There is nothing wrong with anything here. True, you might pay a few pennies more, and I really mean just a little bit more; their prices are still very reasonable. But it is so very worth it. This is a must stop at the Green Dragon. I hope this stand never goes away.

This was my first trip to Lancaster County, PA. My daughter and I took a buggy ride and wanted to…read morewalk to a spot for lunch. Perusing Yelp, I saw Stoltzfus (a local last name that was mentioned by our buggy guide) and it was a deli/restaurant- you had me at meat! You order at a walk up counter, get a buzzer, wait as they make it fresh, get buzzed, and pick your order up. Plenty of clean seating is available. The Philly cheesesteak was awesome! Lots of meat, tender but substantial roll, and hot! I got it sauced - this was new for me. I was thinking cheese sauce, but it was a red sauce. I loved it regardless ( my daughter wasn't as happy - not because it tasted bad, but she wasn't expecting it). We didn't have to wait to order, but once we were eating-the line was easily 25-30 deep. The eating section is called Amos' Place. The meat section is Stoltzfus Meats. A wonderland of fresh, frozen, and refrigerated meats and all the accompanying side dishes! There is also a very good selection of baked goods, spices, and munchies. Oh, the white root beer was good! I will definitely be back!

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.

Another shop within the Bristol Amish Market in Bristol, PA…read more The staff is authentic Amish/Mennonite, in frocks, bonnets , or beards and overalls. The meat looks fresh and thick cuts predominate. Focus is in pork, beef and a good variety of sausage ready for the hot skillet. We picked up some beautiful chops for dinner eating later this week, and some breakfast sausage which was too pretty to pass up. Prices still had the post Covid inflationary bump, but we are getting used to that. If as scrumptious as anticipated, the small increase in coin will be quickly forgotten. Besides, the road-trip out to Lancaster would cost us a lot more than the drive to the outskirts of historic river town Bristol, only 25 minutes from home.
