DELI Want a top quality sandwich at an economical price?
This is the place. You can eat at one of the cafe-style tables inside or on the patio
outside, or you can carry your sandwich off on a hike or to a national park picnic
ground. All baked goods, including the excellent sandwich breads and sub rolls,
are made in-house. In typical deli style, you order at the counter and wait as your
sandwich is prepared with your choice of bread, meats, cheeses, and condiments.
This is also a good breakfast stop for those who enjoy fresh-baked cinnamon rolls,
muffins, banana nut bread, and similar goodies, with a cup of espresso. Locally
made candy, including 14 flavors of excellent fudge, and 24 flavors of ice cream and
frozen yogurt are offered. No alcohol is served.

black-and-white photos on the walls. You find your own table, place your order at
the counter, and a server delivers it. The pizzas, with lots of chewy crust, are baked
