Some sandwiches are just lunch. And then there is the kind you think about for the rest of the week, the one built on fresh baked bread with deli meat and cheese sliced to order right in front of you. If you have been hunting for fresh sandwiches in Tecumseh, the search ends on Manning Road.
Tucked into 1695 Manning Road, Homestyle on Manning is the kind of neighbourhood spot that does a few things and does them exceptionally well. It is a European deli, a fresh bakery, and a specialty grocer all under one roof, and it is proudly part of our Tecumseh BIA feature series. Better still, you can pay a visit and put your Tecumseh Dollars to work at the same time.
What makes Homestyle’s fresh sandwiches worth the trip?
It comes down to freshness and a bit of old world care. The deli counter cuts your meat and cheese to order, so your sandwich is built in minutes from ingredients that were never sitting around made in advance. Add bread baked fresh daily in house and you have a great sandwich: good ingredients, put together with care, and handed to you with a smile.
If you have not stopped in yet, a fresh cut deli sandwich is the perfect introduction. It is quick enough for a workday lunch and good enough to become a standing weekly order.
More than a sandwich shop
The sandwiches might be what pull you through the door, but Homestyle gives you plenty of reasons to stay. The bakery turns out fresh pastries every day, the kind you cannot walk past without grabbing something for later. The deli is stocked with imported cheeses, including hard Italian favourites like Grana Padano and Parmigiano Reggiano cut fresh on site.
They are also the spot for charcuterie in the area, building boards to order or ready to grab for your next gathering. Add in shelves of European groceries and specialty coffee, and Homestyle becomes a one stop shop for anyone who takes their food seriously.
Why shop local at Homestyle?
Every sandwich you buy and every board you order at a local business like Homestyle keeps your dollars in the community. Independent shops like this one are what give Tecumseh its character, and choosing them over a chain across the city is a small decision that adds up to a stronger main street for everyone.
You can find Homestyle on Manning and dozens of other local favourites through our member business directory, an easy way to see what is right around the corner.
How can you make your dollars go further?
Here is the best part. When you shop at Homestyle, you can spend your Tecumseh Dollars. Pick up a Tecumseh Dollars gift card, spendable at participating local businesses across town, and put it toward the best sandwich you will have all week, a fresh charcuterie board, or a bag of treats from the bakery. It is an easy way to treat yourself while keeping your support close to home.
