Philadelphia's Premier Main Line Delicatessen Since 1938

For over 85 years, Hymie's Delicatessen has been the Main Line's destination for authentic New York-style deli cuisine. What started as a family dream has grown into a beloved Philadelphia institution, where three generations of the Barson family have perfected the art of traditional delicatessen fare.

The Barson Legacy Continues

Current owner Louis Barson carries forward a rich family tradition that began when his grandfather first opened the doors in 1938. Growing up surrounded by the sights, sounds, and aromas of the deli business, Louis learned the craft from his father, who expanded the Barson deli empire throughout the region. After studying at NYU, Louis returned home to continue the family legacy, bringing both passion and innovation to every hand-carved sandwich and homemade specialty.
