Delis near Surf City

“I remember when this place opened, I was 14 years old, and nothing looked like it does now, but the deli hasn't it changed at least from what I can tell from the pictures. Some of my fondest memory's happened in or around close by to deli as I worked there for close to 4yrs from the day they opened. Barry, Billy, Joey, Alex, Caitlin, Meg, Johnny Bacon, Phil, and Chris were all family, those summers, and even winters! The one thing that brought us all together to make the deli such a great place was the love of a good sandwich and good food in general. We did only have great food but we all took alot of pride in serving the local people of surf city as well as the tourists. I have since moved away and been away for many years. But am so happy to see the deli is still there going strong. Every time I get to that side of N.C., even if it a lil out of the way, I try to make my way there for a chicken cutlet, fresh cut roast beef, or the famous Italian! And oh yeah don't forget the extra sour pickle! It's been awhile since I have gotten my fix but I believe I will make there here soon to see my old deli family, and catch up, and hopefully to drive Billy crazy with my southern accent and slang! He use to love one phrase so much I believe it was " Do What!" Hope all is well with them and can't wait to see them all again and have one of the best sandwiches on the face of the planet!“

“I absolutely love Cora’s Deli! I heard nothing but praise from our entire party that got food. My BLT wrap was phenomenal and I had 0 complaints. The seating area is a bit small but otherwise it is a very warm and comfortable atmosphere. Coras was actually named after what I believe to be the owners dog, a beautiful retired racing greyhound! Inside, you can find Cora’s life story and how she found her way to own a deli. I recommend Cora’s Isle-End Deli to anyone traveling near or through Topsail“
