It is like stepping back in time to your childhood memories of what a real store is, a store with character.
They have a brilliant range of newspapers to compliment their fresh coffee, but dont forget good things happen in threes, their freshly baked croissants, baguettes, pastries and muffins to name a few smack of the French influence on the store.
The Deli is hosts an array of American classics-cold cuts and sandwich fillers.
But, the hand picked selection of imported cheeses on inspection would have you think you were in the South of France, such is their quality and attentive selection.
Fresh fish, clams, shrimp (big big shrimp) and a Lobster tank full of the Atlantics finest that can be steamed for you in 15mins. All of this before one mentions the big Lingo's special NY Strips, Fillets, Rib Eye's and T-bones- all freshly cut and the orchard of fresh fruit the store carries.
It is heaven for anyone hoping to feed their family locally sourced produce and with an excellent personal touch, Lingo's is really a one in a million place.
Always ask for the local peaches-they are divine!!
On a visit, be sure to ask Archie Lingo about his day job! He only works as a pilot on the Delaware River!!
