Quaint little art deco bar. Rhonda the bar tender will take good care of you and Berry the owner looks our for his customers. Watch for live music, especially The Motors; definitely worth the cover

Hot ham and cheese is so very delicious! Owner and staff are very friendly and there are so many cool things to look at! Highly recommend! Can’t wait to see the outside all done! Get the cheesecake! You won’t regret it!!

If you’re hungry treat yourself with a sandwiche from here. Super friendly, excellent service and amazing food. Their Reuben is the best Reuben that I’ve eaten. And the ham salad is outstanding. The cheesecake is crazy good. This was my grandfather’s hangout in the 50s, 60s & 70s. They were good back then.

Loved this place, definitely very quirky. It was their fish fry day and they had music all day. I opted for the Reuben (big ben) and it was excellent. Owner was making the rounds, a nice touch

This is a gem of a place. Oldest deli west of Mississippi. Lots of memorabilia. The food was amazing. They had their daily special chicken salad sandwich which was great. Don’t miss a piece of cheesecake there. Made there and it was wonderful. The staff was very friendly and accommodating giving us the low down on other places to see while we were in town. Friday night live music.

Great atmosphere, service and food. It’s a terrific find after a day of sightseeing in St. Joe. The place is full of history, good conversation and of course the food was delish! Thanks for the service.

This place is a true hidden gem. Wife had the Ruben and I had a Smoked Turkey and Swiss sandwich. My daughter had chicken salad and a little cheesecake (all of which the toddler devoured!) Everything was absolutely delicious! We will definitely be back!
