“Home town feel, homemade food, friendly staff, great atmosphere, and very good food. Eat here, nuff said.We needed to travel Lake City and did a search for places to eat. It was high noon and we did not want fast food or big chain eating, we would rather have home cooked cafe style food. Well, we found the right spot, Marien's Deli!We could tell this was a good spot with all the people going in and out which appeard to be grab and go orders. We entered and looked around to figure out the process and layout of this quaint deli. Seating for about 16 and a couple of easy chairs. There was also seating on the outdoor front porch.The cashier (probably the owner) quickly noticed we had never been there before and was very helpful in explaining the different food stations (sandwiches, salads, and soups) and ordering process. My wife had a sub and soup and I had a hot grilled sandwich (panini), chili, and dessert. There were many different veggies, meats, sauces, and bread options which gives you an option to a basic ham and cheese (cold or grilled) to a full blown loaded Dogwood sandwich.I saw at least six different cold side salads to accommodate your sandwich. Of course there was soups! We had the choice of two homemade soups and a chili. And then there is dessert, OMG! I had the peach cobbler(?) and there was several others available. (Get the dessert even if you have to eat it first, trust me on this.)There is also a large variety of bottled drinks and bagged chips to grab with your meal. Oh, there is also a take and bake section where ppl can purchase frozen hotdish and reheat at home.I highly recommend Marien's Deli and would definitely eat here again.“
