Farmer In The Deli was created by Ted Anselmo and Frank Spoto in 2005. Ted's family was part of the West Side Market since early 1900's, while Frank has been in food business for over 25 years. They first opened a stand at the market, then decided to open a store. Their search landed them in Chesterland, Ohio.
The store was started and continues to grow mainly on the customers wants and needs. We carry a wide range of fresh produce, cured meats, cheeses and specialty items, both imported and house-made. In addition to our deli, we also feature a variety of sandwiches, made to order.

I'm all about a delicious, wet, sloppy sandwich. I am obsessed with me the Italian here!! This beauty is loaded with Cappicola, pepperoni, salami & provolone cheese. With either hot or mild peppers on a fresh baked Italian roll. Seriously this thing is bomb for $8 All of their subs are really good. JJ always has them make a spicy sandwich for him --no clue what's on it but it has blue cheese and it is (almost) equally as amazing as the Italian!!

Great deli sandwiches!! For the oatmeal raisin cookie fanatics theirs is a 5 star cookie in a ten county area of only 4s. I've searched far and wide. This is a dense cookie, dunkers take note. Slight initial crunch with a good textured chew. Brown butter and hints of molasses over tones. Warning!! There so many raisins in this thing the oatmeal is complaining. Something about first billing?

I can't say enough nice things about this place. Their sandwiches are fantastic, the people taking orders/making food are pleasant even when obviously really busy, and the people running the register are always really friendly and in a great mood. Whatever you guys are doing to keep everyone so positive and upbeat, keep it up.
Best sandwiches/lunch deal around.

This review is solely based on the chocolates.
My coworker, a native of Chesterland, showed up at work one day with a bag of chocolates for me.
"Here, Rachael", she said, "have these chocolates from a placed called Farmer in the Deli out in Chesterland by me."
Expecting just a regular ole chocolate, I took a bite into one of them. "Holy moly, this is realllyyyyyyy good!" I exclaimed.
Apparently, this place has bulk fresh chocolate that you can grab by the handful- my coworker had grabbed me a bunch of milk chocolate peanut clusters and caramel ones as well. The

I had previously gone to Farmer in the Deli with great satisfaction but today had a totally opposite experience. Today we ordered lunch for our office (9 people) and went to pick the order up. They handed us 2 bags of food and rang us out. Assuming they had done their jobs, I did not check the bags, paid the total, and went back to my office (25 min away). When we arrived back to office, we discovered that 2 sandwiches were missing from our order. When we called to tell the Deli of the missing food, the owner Ted - a very "charming" man (sarcasm) - immediately took the phone and began

Absolutely terrible service, which is a shame because it completely outshines their delicious food. We made a lunch time order and picked it up, but we were disappointed to find 2 employees were missing their lunch. Unfortunately with them being so far away, we were unable to go all the way back inside our lunch hour. We called later to let them know what had happened. The owner was extremely confrontational, and went as far as calling me back to argue and accuse more. We will never do business with this business again. Not how you treat good customers.

Impressed yet again with a place in Chesterland that I did not have high expectations for! Kudos Chesterland, you are changing my opinions at every single turn!!
I have had two lunches from Farmer in the Deli. First time I ordered a scoop of their tuna salad with some horseradish cheddar cheese - decent experience and a good introduction to a new place! However, it wasn't until last week, when I ordered a roast beef sandwich, was I utterly satisfied and officially hooked. I got all the toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion) plus the jalapeno havarti. Add a little mayo and a smidge a mustard..
