“ A must have Italian combo with everything. One of Waterbury's neighborhood deli. You walk in and they call you by your name. ”
“ Great sandwiches!! Excellent baked Mac and cheese when they have it. Highly recommended. - The Critic ”
“ Italian combo grinder, hot fries, & a Snapple lemonade..... my idea of a perfect lunch. Personally I prefer the grinders over the sandwich bread... has a better texture. But you can't go wrong here. They do get extremely busy during lunch so I say either order ahead or make sure you have a few extra minutes. Very customizable & have great extra snack, drinks, appetizers & even deserts. My only complaint is that parking is limited so if you come during rush hour you might have to park on the street. ”
“ I went here based on two Waterbury locals' recommendations for the roast beef, and I was not disappointed. It was soft and tender, with not a ton of flavor on its own, but when combined with provolone, mayo, and oil and vinegar, some sort of alchemy happened that raised it high. The bread was Milite's, a Waterbury bakery with a well-deserved reputation, which helped elevate the sandwich further. (There were several Milite's products in front of the counter, and I took home an absolutely gorgeous Italian loaf.) One thing about Ann's: grinders and other items come sealed under plastic against a foam plate, the way a supermarket does it, as opposed to being wrapped in the usual paper. I'm not sure if it's because they're takeout-only, but it was the first time that I'd seen a deli do that. It *is* better for ensuring that the sandwich doesn't dry out, but you also can't rewrap it, so it depends on what you value more, I guess. They won't win any awards for atmosphere or friendliness of service, but with delis / grinder shops, that sort of thing is more of a bonus than a requirement. Ann's provided me with a good solid grinder - good enough that I'll return to try their other meats - and that's enough for me to recommend them! ”
“ Best breakfast sandwich in the Hopeville area and quite possibly the town. Standard egg and cheese with your choice of meat (bacon, ham, sausage). Pro tip: Ask for extra meat for .50 more. You can thank me later. Lunch time subs done right. Everything is fresh and made to order. The bread is chewy and they add just the right amount of toppings to make a delicious grinder. The deli case is filled with standard deli fair, such as anti-pasta, pickled this and that, large whole pickles and a wide assortment of salads. Take out only. Be prepared to wait around lunchtime as it gets busy. I also like the fact that they sell a good variety of local canned goods as well as their own Marinara. ”
