handy delicatessen outer sunset
Tuesday, January 19th, 2010heh, I wrote “outer sunset” like it was a different city.
this MLK weekend I managed to fit in a few beer-related events, including a bevmo run and a trip to magnolia with AP for some great eats and a kalifornia kolsch, oysterhead stout, proving ground IPA, and sara’s ruby mild.
however, the highlight of my weekend was discovering a great liquor store/sandwich shop in the outer sunset, handy delicatessen.
- handy delicatessen is a little liquor store with a big local and european beer selection. they stock the standard lineup but had plenty of hard to find beers (check out the pics!)
- to top it off, they have a deli sandwich counter where you can order up some pretty decent, fat sandwiches on the cheap (I don’t think any were over $4). just remember to ask if you want your sandwich hot (I didn’t think they made cold pastrami sandwiches, go figure…).
- plus, they’re open till 2am – perfect if you’re in the area and want some late-night specialty brews and a good sandwich to finish off the night.
- overall, handy deli is a good store to add to your city-wide beer hunt lineup, and a must-visit if you’re over on irving street near 19th.
