Lunch doesn’t have to be ordinary. We don’t have to go to the same burger joints, pizza shops, and hoagie spots all the time. Sometimes our taste buds deserve a change, a little bit of spice. When’s the last time you had a fresh sandwich made just the way you like it? If it’s been too long or it sounds good right about now, stop by this charming deli in Pittsburgh that has served some of the city’s best sandwiches for more than three decades.
Discover some of the city's best sandwiches at Food for Thought Deli in Oakland, a popular deli that first opened in 1987.
Founded by Robert Wasserman, the New York-style deli originally opened in Shadyside before relocating to Regent Square. Then, the popular deli moved to its current home in the lively neighborhood of Oakland.
