Its funny because I wrote a Yelp review (yes I am one of them) years ago about how unfriendly everyone was in there, and how i felt everyone was walking on egg shells. After that, it appeared the management got the message and people were very inviting and helpful when people walked through the door. I am not saying I had anything to do with it, but I found this place fascinating for the prepared foods, at the time eclectic beer selection and markets both meat and fish. I realize there others doing this now, but I was dying for a place like this.. I will absolutely still shop there, but I get Floramo steak tips from way back in Chelsea MA if you haven't had them, you are missing out !!!

p.s. a place called provisions is opening today I think in center harbor, where Bay Gulls use to be, I am looking forward to it.... hope its good!!!

Have you updated (or written a new) YELP review?

Not sure how YELP works, I would never consider using that site for fear of disgruntled employees or competition being the authors of the reviews.

Very disappointing - walking in at 12:30 P, no one in line, ordered a single sub and was told 5 minutes. I then gathered a couple other things and proceeded to wait 20 minutes before I gave up and left.

I understand they do a solid call in business but during the extended wait I was in front of the deli counter for most of the time and at no time did anyone apologize or attempt to figure out why the delay.

I won't be back this year - the service was below average.
