Hip Pocket Deli

Come Hungry!! This place is great and Chris (the owner) is very personable and always greets you when you arrive and says goodbye when you leave. His food is second to none and he is trying to feed an army with some of the meals! Open Mon-Sat, from 10-2 only. The calzone is uh-maz-in! and feeds 3 for $11...crazy! You just have to call in early (between 6-9) and order it cause it's made to order fresh. The Gyros are awesome (I love the heavy garlic tzatziki sauce and feta). The Italian sausage pita is YUMMY (on Wed and Sat only)! I haven't been able to "man up" and order the meatball sub yet (like 5 lbs). His Club is HUGE with a THICK layer of bacon....wow. The Philly is huge also, good luck! I am scared to mention it as he already sells out in about 1.5 hours but the Grouper on Friday is something special! Way more than I can eat and best fish I have had in town, no questions asked! The batter tastes SOOO good! He also makes huge muffaletas and reubens on certain days, and a huge burger on Thursday he calls the Wimpy Burger (5 lbs). Dessert.....Baklava is OMFreakinG good! Made different weekly...some ingredients - Ice cream, godiva chocolate, snickers, pomegranate, pistachios, caramel, butterfinger, etc, etc and of course the flaky honey crust (takes days to make one)!

Great food, great prices too! You will start bringing friends with you. I'm "big truck Lew" and eat here all the time :-)

One of the great food spots in Pensacola. Best Gyros in town. Also has great specials. Would recomend to anyone.
