Deli & Brew, Troy

I took a few classes at Hudson Valley Community College to satisfy undergrad deficiencies for my Masters Degree. Learning sure can make you hungry and I would come off campus around lunch time and look longingly at the nearby Deli and Brew [64 Vandenburgh Ave, Troy, NY 12180].

One Sunday we had been out hiking all day and worked up a big ole sandwich craving appetite. It was late and most places close early on Sunday, but this awesome deli stays open to a reasonable 7pm, we were in! There is a lot going on here. Generally: sandwiches, pizza, and salad. What’s homemade? Soups, pasta salad, roast beef, and slow-smoked bbq beef brisket.

However, it was as good for the next day’s lunch as it was on initial impact. Man it was tasty, fluffy sub roll, crisp veggies, and grade A chicken cutlet!
