Delis near Canaan

“Went back to Connecticut recently to attend my mother's funeral where I grew up in North Canaan where this deli is located. I met my mother's best friend and her family for breakfast. The staff was pleasant, the food was a bit pricey, but good, waitress never came around to fill up our coffee and the place was not busy.. $67.00 for four people ...“

“This place is a Goshen landmark—probably a New England one too. Known for their smoked meats and jerky (yes, still hanging in cloth bags when you buy by the pound), it’s not cheap—but it’s always good. That kind of consistency is rare.

They don’t advertise it, but it might be one of the best deli around. The sandwiches are solid, but the BLT is next level thanks to their own house-smoked bacon. And don’t leave without grabbing a chocolate chip cookie. Homemade. Absolutely worth it.

This isn’t a fancy shop— but it had friendly staff, quick service, and a place locals know to stop.

If you’re in the area, go. Just go hungry.“
