2021: Philadelphia Voted Hershel’s East Side Deli Best Kosher Restaurant!
Hershel’s East Side Deli
51 N. 12th St

Imagine this mealtime at Reading Terminal Market: a turkey sandwich dripping with cheese, Russian dressing, coleslaw and pickles. Soft and juicy turkey flavored with the sweet and creamy dressing will amaze you, rumors say. But you have to try it for yourself. Any sandwich here is fantastic and nobody leaves hungry. Some love the brisket and corned beef “Rachel” style and a routine turkey and bacon with mustard that sounds comforting. Some of the tourists visiting the Reading Terminal Market make comparisons to the Carnegie Deli in New York City, probably due to the delectable meats carved before your eyes. The Reading Terminal Market is a spectacular deli where lining up is a ritual and nobody complains about it!
