Auntie Em’s is the quintessential Mom and Pop business. Nice friendly folks serving wholesome country style sandwiches, soups, and desserts. I truly enjoyed this deli and plan to make it part of my lunch experience often.

I was visiting friends who insisted on taking me to Auntie Em's. Couldn't ask for a better experience! The Reuben was generous and spot on. Chicken pot pie soup was incredible. The carrot cake was the best ever. Can't recommend these nice people enough.

I had half a sandwich and a piece of pie. The sandwich was delicious, good quality bread, meat, and cheese. The pie was nothing special. The crust was not very good, and the berry filling was syrupy and sweet.

I had the Philly. The sandwich and a bag of chips was over $20. The cashier was very friendly and I let her know this was my first time at the restaurant. She recommended the Ruben. I gave a poor rating because the sandwich was mediocre. It was thin, dry, and not flavorful, I didn’t finish it even though I was hungry. I certainly could get a better sandwich at subway for a quarter the price.

I eat there pretty much every week

Crystal was fantastic! Very friendly and accommodating. We got sandwiches, pie and also picked up some jam and cheese for the road. Definitely adding this to our trip stops for next time.

Nicest people you'll ever meet, has that small town diner feel. Stop in and get some pie!

Paid $10 for a chicken salad sandwich scooped out of a plastic container, I asked if a side was included, I was told you can do a half sandwich and side, but I had already ordered. I like to support small business but this is just too high priced. I don't know, maybe I ordered the wrong item? The people were nice enough but for a mediocre chicken salad sandwich, I won't be back.

The Reuben was the best I've ever had! The sauerkraut was locally made, and you can buy it there! The bread was from an Italian bakery and the meat and cheese are from the Amish. All makes it a killer combo! It's a little mom & pop shop and they are so welcoming. I talked to some regulars as I waited for my order,. The potato salad was so good and fresh. I also had the strawberry rhubarb pie, it was amazing. It was a great experience!
