"They may not always be the most visually appealing or have lines out the door, but if the food is good, they can be the best eateries to come by in this social media-saturated world. From old-school diners to late-night dive bars, we're so dedicated to the topic that we compiled an extensive list of the best hole-in-the-wall restaurants in every state."
"The small business was founded by Patty Jacobs in 2011. While the location has moved a couple of times - Jacobs even sold the business to another local business owner in 2024 - it remains an important part of the community. The current owner, Lisa McDonald, was a longtime customer before taking over, and she has kept everything about this hidden gem the same, including the delicious menu."
"Patty's Deli serves breakfast and lunch with a variety of sandwiches, wraps, and salads (even charcuterie) on offer. You can get anything from an egg wrap with wild-caught Alaskan smoked salmon to a hot house-roasted pork sandwich, or a toasted chicken cheese steak sub. The "Patty's Favorite" is also a standout star that features blackened top round beef, blue cheese, fried onions and arugula."
Hole-in-the-wall eateries can deliver outstanding food despite humble appearances. Patty's Deli operates inside the Liberty gas station on Savannah Road in Lewes and has become a local favorite. The small business began in 2011 under Patty Jacobs and, after a few moves and a 2024 ownership change, continues under longtime customer Lisa McDonald, who preserved the menu. Patty's Deli serves breakfast and lunch with sandwiches, wraps, salads, charcuterie, and many vegetarian choices. Menu highlights include wild-caught Alaskan smoked salmon wraps, house-roasted pork, a toasted chicken cheesesteak, and the blackened top round "Patty's Favorite." Daily specials and classic salads round out offerings.
