Primo's Deli

If you live in Akron, chances are you know about its secret (or not-so-secret) sandwiches. From corned beef to pastrami and salami, Primo's Deli on Vernon Odom knows sandwiches.

Have a hankerin' for spicy Italian sub with salami, proscuitto, capicola, mortadella and pepperoni piled high on top of freshly-bread? How 'bout a corned beef reuben with thousand island and crunchy kraut? Bagel sandwich with cream cheese and smoked salmon? All-beef hot dog with chili and cheese? Primo's is the place to be for all of these and much, much more. baked

What's that? You're not in the mood for a sandwich? Well, that's OK, I suppose. You're in luck at Primo's. Pierogies, barbecued chicken wings, antipasto, fresh salads and hot, homemade soups (try the chili or the New England clam chowder-- yum!) are also in abundance on Primo's diverse menu.

Accompany your meal selection with a side order of bacon-baked beans, potato salad, macaroni salad, macaroni and cheese or coleslaw. All sandwiches come with potato chips and a pickle.

If you're in the mood for an ice-cold brew, you won't be let down by Primo's, either. More than 200 varieties-- Akron's largest selection-- are available at Primo's.

Carry-out is available, but you've got to dine-in at least once to get the true Primo's experience. End your meal with a slice of Primo's decadent carrot cake-- rich cream cheese icing and sweet cake make it the perfect ending to your perfect Primo's sandwich (or hot dog, soup or salad).
