It wasn't really near us but now that my daughter goes to college in Poughkeepsie I have stopped by a couple of times. My mother really enjoys their liverwurst and I go with their weisswurst, smoked pork chops or frankfurters. If you are in the area I would definitely stop in and pick something up.

We recently made the trip down to the 567 Old Hopewell Road Location to pick up a few items and…read moregrab some lunch. While there I noticed they had some ribs in the warmer- I do love their ribs. I asked for half a rack of the last full rack they had there and they tried giving me the remnants of another rack that was looking quite dry- 2 bones and almost a half rack- not something I wanted. I mentioned the half coming off the last full rack and the young lady asked the manager(?) and she said no! She said they can't sell a half from a full when there is a half available. Unheard of! In the 25 plus years I've been going there this had never happened! Needless to say, I didn't take the ones they would sell me and tried cancelling my sandwich as well but they were already preparing it. I spoke to a mutual friend and it was explained that the older locaton has the Family working there and the newer location doesn't maybe resulting in different service levels. And to think I wanted to buy a half a try of the pork schnitzel. Disappointed.

The sandwiches are shareable (even the smallest size) and the dinner meals are ~$17-$20 and could easily stretch to 2 full meals. Their red sauce is a little acidic but delicious. Vodka sauce is good too. Fried eggplant to die for. Fresh bread does not miss. Love the condiments. Yum yum yum!

My 5 stars is really for their famous giant chocolate chip cookie! We stopped by here for some…read morequick pastries after our cold hike. I was super excited to ask about the giant cookie when I was pointed to the last chocolate chip cookie still lying there waiting to be bought. I was a little disappointed by the size because it wasn't exactly how I imagine "giant" to be but it was a big cookie and I'm so glad I bought it. It is one of the best cookies I've ever had! Perfectly crispy on the outer edges with warm melty chocolate inside. It's been two weeks and I still think about it. We also tried their chocolate chip pecan scone and pumpkin spiced donut which were both pretty good but if I had to recommend one thing, it's that cookie. Next time I'm around the area, I want to try their other cookies!

Great spot for lunch!…read more My husband and I stopped in on our way back to our Airbnb after a long morning hike. This place is counter service, so we made our way directly to the register to place our order. Upon ordering, we were warned that it would be at least a 30 minute wait until our food was ready due them being short staffed. Although we were hungry, we weren't in a rush and truly appreciated the heads up! I ordered the Eggplant Parmesan sandwich and WOWZA! The sandwich was HUGE! I took a photo of my Gatorade bottle laying next to it for comparison (haha). I hardly ate half of it because it was so filling, however it was definitely delicious. My husband ordered a sandwich of his own (although I can't remember which one) and he was equally pleased. We also ordered a side of tots which were crispy and salty, just how I like them! My husband and I definitely could've shared one sandwich as we both don't eat a lot in one sitting, so this is something to keep in mind if you're reading this before your first visit here!! The weather was absolutely gorgeous so we chose to sit on the front patio. It was such a lovely atmosphere for lunch! Also, because we were sitting outside, they told us to come back in 30 minutes to check if our order was ready because we wouldn't be able to hear them call our name. All in all, a pleasant experience! Would definitely recommend this place for lunch, especially if you're in the mood for sandwiches.

From the moment you walk in you smell the delicious cheeses. They make the sausage in house daily and have several varieties. I ordered a turkey wrap with Swiss cheese and roasted peppers. The wrap was delicious and packed with turkey. It was so fresh and the roasted peppers were homemade. I will be sure to go back. There are so many delicacys I would love to try. Don't sleep on Francos in Hopewell! They are delicious and the staff is so nice!

That they had cheese and meat inside. We just had lunch, so I got one for takeout. She asked if I wanted it heated, I said no thank you. It's pretty large; almost enough for two people. When I did reheat it, at home, I was pleasantly surprised. There WAS some cheese and meat tucked into the Arborio rice. Technically, it made it a suppli. "Telephone wire" because the cheese stretches like the old-fashioned landline, telephone wires did. Best part - it was delicious!

JJ Delicatessen has an excellent assortment of meats, cheeses and dried goods, many from European countries like Germany and Poland. My girlfriend and I ordered sandwiches on a Saturday morning. We had to wait a little over twenty minutes, and the woman advised that next time we call our orders in ahead of time because the hot sandwiches take awhile. So that's your tip for the day. But they were worth waiting for. Fairly priced, excellent quality, and came with a few sides. I got the Polish sandwich special and my girlfriend got the Mediterranean sandwich special. There is a small seating area in the deli, but we took them with us and ate them in the car. It was a great lunch that we ate right before an afternoon of hiking at High Point State Park in NJ. Highly recommend this deli!

Here's a Father's Day review:…read more They were kind enough to seat us, but they have really odd hours, especially for Father's Day -- arguably the BIGGEST day of the year for BBQ. We arrived at 3:50 p.m., and they told us that they were closing in 10 minutes. Yikes. A family that arrived after us was turned away. I could see the deep disappointment in their eyes. I can only guess that BEAST doesn't want the business. Again, this was during the afternoon on one of the busiest BBQ days of the year. I.E. This wasn't some slow, late, and empty night. It was a sunny afternoon, and Fishkill's Main Street was hopping and vibrant. The staff did allow us to eat our meal, though, and didn't kick us out, but they were itching to close up shop. I guess they all have better things to be doing. (?) The food was, well, "okay" but overly pricey. The smoked wings are good here. I'll give them that. I would only get those if I ever came again (though the blue cheese dressing was weak). The other food (brisket, sausage, and mac n' cheese) was not poor, but it was also not memorable. Maybe a "C" grade all around? It's a neat spot for drinks (good spirits selection) and wings if you're in the neighborhood and they're open. But double-check their hours before heading out.
