Notre Dame de Parkton
A small basketball net is tacked above the front door of the unassuming Notre Dame de Parkton, a stellar family-owned deli sandwich shop that elevates classic comfort food. Known for using locally sourced meats that are smoked in-house and paired with homemade sauces, this spot delivers serious flavor in every bite (that’s true of their soups and desserts, too). Their signature grilled cheese sandwiches are the true stars of the menu, served alongside coleslaw, chips, and a pickle on a vintage cafeteria tray. These include "Aporkalypse," with apple-smoked bacon and creamy brie and "91 Maple," which pairs a hint of maple syrup with bacon and gooey cheese. Adding to the deli’s eccentric, hipster vibe is a smattering of quirky religious artifacts, while the bathroom—a must-see—feels like a trip to the Vatican. The family also owns the Laundromat Espresso Bar just down the street, another neighborhood gem with drinks (both caffeinated and alcoholic), live jazz and artsy bohemian vibes.
