This level of bakery / deli quality is unmatched in the city. I grew up here and this place is just as good as it always was. I hope it never changes.

The variety baked goods is amazing and unique. My mother has always loved their breads and deli meats and I have to agree. The variety of imported condiments and foreign chocolate and candy is also awesome. When I come into St. Joseph's, I ALWAYS end up with a jar or 2 of spicy mustards.

Can't believe I've never heard of this bakery before today. I got the assorted on a kaiser with everything. It was delicious and only $5.50! The bun and toppings were very fresh. My husband loved his 12" roast beef sub.

The Portuguese tarts were the best I've ever had. We can't wait to go back!
