I love this shop, the deli guys are always so polite, friendly, hygienic and professional and make the best sandwiches ever!
I do NOT recommend the 36th and Market location. I went there twice and was disappointed by the experience. The lady making the sandwiches does not wash her hands. She puts on gloves but stops making sandwiches to ring up a customer whilst wearing said gloves! Both times were early morning before work. She took the cutting board out of the sink where it must have sat all night and started making sandwiches directly on it-not on waxed paper. Like who knows whether or not rats and roaches crawled over it all night 🙄. She doesn't say good morning or thank you. It's ridiculous. If you aren't a morning person don't work mornings! And compared to 20th and Chestnut, she skimps on everything. I asked for mayo, no mayo. I have to choke down a dry a$$ sandwich. Chestnut street weighs your meats and she just threw whatever on the bread. I thought all Old Nelson's were the same but they are not. If you can avoid 36th and Market, avoid it, and see my friends at the Chestnut Street location.

It's clean, the prepared food is tasty, service is friendly and fast. Prices are high for items, akin to a convenience store, and sometimes items aren't in stock, but all in all this is a great little store/deli.
They have the best sandwiches at a great price. My favorite is the plain soft hoagie rolls. The staff is just wonderful.
Foods I was looking for were either on the shelves or an associate stopped what he was doing and found a similar item for me to purchase. The cashier allowed me to use a shopping bag to gather and make purchases while my custom hoagie was being made. I also purchased fresh fruits and cheese here. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. I will shop here again.🎒
Clean bright store with an adequate selection of average meats and breads. My focaccia bacon and cheese was average... The focaccia bread was happy but wasn't the experience I was looking for.
Nice deli. The guys behind the counter are so friendly and make great breakfast sandwiches. The market is convenient as well, albeit a little pricey compared to other options in the area. $5 credit card minimum.
More than simply a nice, corner deli. ONFM strives to carry the best products and offer high quality meats (Boars Head) for their sandwiches and entrees. A favorite when I worked in the city and one I frequent whenever I'm in town.
