THE CORNER Mercantile & Eatery

Great food, good people. For the value, very expensive!

We stopped by on the way to the beach and the food was really good. I had the breakfast sammich and it was the perfect amount of food. The owner was super nice and talkative and her sense of humor was exactly the same as mine.

The Philly cheese steak is exquisite.

Super good food! They have a good variety of options, and the service was great. They have outdoor seating, which was very nice. I'd definitely recommend this for a nice lunch!

Lovely conviencence store with made to order meals. Compared to other places on the block I felt like the prices were 10-20% higher than they should be but otherwise I would definitely be going back again when I am in the neighborhood.

Stopped in to grab a four pack of decent craft beer while in town on a work trip - very pleasantly surprised by the friendly, inviting vibe and the careful selection of provisions! Firstly, Lisa is super friendly and chatty and makes you feel like family - she even invited me for dinner the next night (they do different themed dinner menus each week!). The baked goods were delicious and the beer recommendation was spot on. Highly recommend stopping in!

Love, love this place.

We feel so lucky that we happened upon this cute little deli on the very first day of our vacation, we had to come back on the last day! I had a delicious tuna sandwich and my husband had the hot salami and loved it. My sun had the kids cheese pizza that even we liked after stealing a few bites. They have a great selection of craft beer (and wine) to choose from to have with your meal. Not to mention the owner is so lovely and was so kind to our two year old. Such a great spot for a delicious and fresh deli lunch

Stopped by this corner eatery on our was back up the coast and man it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! If you’re in the area or driving through and hungry stop by and grab a snack or something to eat! The ingredient are good and the door is delicious! They have a small kids menu and if you’re here for breakfast there’s also single cereals and milk. There’s a couple shops around if you need to wait a bit for the foods outdoor seating is lovely as you are surrounded by lots to look at and flamingos. The services is great! And did I mention how good the food tastes! Hats off to the cook.
