Town Hall Deli

The spot, the food, and the reaction

Town Hall Deli in South Orange Village, NJ, is famous for its Sloppy Joe sandwich. This isn't your average sloppy sandwich; it's a cold, layered creation with two kinds of meat, Swiss cheese, coleslaw, and Russian dressing on rye bread. People say this sandwich is a must-try!

It all started back in the 1930s when the mayor of Maplewood brought the idea back from a trip to Cuba. Now, this deli is almost 100 years old and still makes it the old-fashioned way. They even dry brine their slaw for three days!

It's pretty cool how a vacation idea turned into such a beloved sandwich.

With Sloppy Joe in the mix, this South Orange Village, NJ stop gives hungry people a pretty tasty reason to show up. Sloppy Joe also gets some well-earned attention, because one good bite should never have to carry the whole meal alone. Between Sloppy Joe and Sloppy Joe, the order has enough personality to make an ordinary food run feel like a small treat.
