Where to find party hoagies in Philly for Super Bowl LVII

Chowing down on an Italian roll overflowing with deli meats, cheeses, and condiments is very much a Philly thing. This city runs on hoagies.

“It’s ingrained in our culture,” said chef Matt Cahn of Middle Child. “All different cities have their version of a corner store, but a deli is like our version.”

Why not go big? The local love for this glorious sandwich comes in extra large — up to six feet, in fact.

“It’s just a little extra drama on the table,” Cahn said. “The beauty of the three-foot hoagie is that we chop them up into one-inch slices, so you get to try a lot of different hoagies at once. Grab some chips or some pickles and it’s a little smorgasbord.”

To help you have a little more fun with your Super Bowl feasting, here are some party-sized hoagies you’ll need both hands to eat.

Ask nicely and you’ll get a six-footer with any meats and cheeses your hoagie-loving heart desires — just be sure to give a couple days’ notice. Hoagies are made with Sarcone’s bread, lettuce, tomato, onion, seasoning, and olive oil. Expect to pay around $100.
