Update Oct 16, 2023. Missing the dog days of summer? Or the nearby Gould Park pool. No worries - enjoy your dose of sun on the blue bench out front. This south-facing perch is a super sun trap. Just bring your sunglasses and the staff inside can prepare a quick snack or more substantial meal 😎😎😎
I’m a frequent morning customer and live nearby. Parkside makes excellent made-to-order sandwiches and heros. My fav is the turkey breast with cheese, lettuce, tomato and mustard.

FL 🙀 Prepared food available at some point in the day and it was delish. They somehow fit an amazing amount of useful household goods and food within this tiny store. Well...
Read moreJust had the pleasure of having the Italian cowboy wedge made by Mike nasti himself. These guys are like the mad scientists of sandwich making. Fresh made chicken cutlets provolone cheese pepperoni on a toasted hero bread with a spicy Chipotle mayo. Outstanding ! My only problem was I ate it so fast I didn't even take pictures so be sure to check back and I'll post some soon. Going to have to go back and try the OMG sandwich challenge. A three pound sandwich in under 10...
