Young Avenue Deli
This hangout is part delicatessen, part trendy gathering place for kids to shoot pool and drink beer. Super laid-back, the deli and sidewalk patio out front have been a staple of the Cooper-Young neighborhood for years. There’s an impressive list of beers by the bottle and draft, the best chili-cheese fries in town, and they deck the halls like crazy at the holidays, with more than 25 Santas hanging around. However, staffing can be spotty, which means sloooow service. I love it too much to not include it, but I’d suggest sitting at the bar to avoid a backup—and being ready to bounce down to Celtic Crossing if you don’t get served in a few minutes.
