Damn, I was hoping Parkway Corner was close to Martha since I work over there. Who’s got a good Italian in that area?

Yo, you weren’t joking. Ate a “hoagie” from there today. Damn delicious. Thanks for the rec.

Yeah, they’re BOMB. The veggie hoagie is also incredible and I can’t recommend the Franklin enough

Second this. The Italian is great, but all the sandwiches are worth trying

Totally agree. Make sure to order ahead though!

Near Martha? Dan’s Fresh Meats at Frankford and Norris.

Second this, their Italian is unbeatable. It’s honestly a crime that I don’t see them mentioned in these comment sections more often.

I am actually almost regretful that I even mentioned it because I don’t want to spoil the secret. Also I think I have to go get an Italian hoagie from Dan’s now.

Please do spoil secrets about small businesses, we'd like them to stay open right?

Dan’s has been open for like a thousand years. (Ok…actually 75 years…) But yes I do indeed hope they continue to stay open!

I spent a lot of time in chester and there's a sandwich shop called 2 J's.

It's like the prequel. Always gives me a laugh

Never had a hoagie from 3J's but I can say that their chicken sandwiches are pretty bomb

Del Rossi (4th and Spring Garden) used to be my go-to spot but they've undergone some depressing shrinkflation lately for the Italian hoagie and also cheesesteaks. Still a solid option though!

The corner market on Coral and York two blocks away actually has an incredible one. The owners are Dominican I believe, but the mans in the deli used to make a mean Italian hoagie.
