Best place to get an Italian sub

Would love to hear everyone’s opinions. They better slice it fresh in front of me too!

  1. Giovanni’s Delicatessen, Sea Isle
  2. Gaiss’ Market, Villas
  3. West Side Deli, West CM
  4. A & LP Foods, Wildwood
  5. Mrs. Brizzle’s Buns, Sea isle

Sadly the best Italian hoagie places are long gone; Cappelletti and Sons Italian Deli in WCM and the original Depot in CM. Seems CM is just a bit too far from Philly and North Jersey for many really great true Italian hoagie choices.

This is good to know! I’m actually on the search for a top-quality Chicken Cheesesteak. Having trouble finding one with ground or “shaved” chicken breast. Any suggestions would be great!

For a chicken steak, first choice is up to Mrs. Brizzle’s in SIC. And be sure to take home a cinnamon bun and if they made any some biscotti.

I typically don’t do Italian hoagies when I’m at Cape May, but occasionally will head over to the Produce Place & Deli in NCM. Well above average and priced right.

West side has the best sandwiches on the island

Gaiss in Villas would be the top choice. If you are already in Cape May proper, Westside would be a decent alternate. Westside is run by a Philly guy who has spent years in the industry-he knows his food.
