It is amazing that it took me this long to visit Hollingshead Deli in Orange.
The deli is tucked into a long strip of not-mini mall on Main Street. Inside you might possibly notice that they favor a certain team from the National Football League. You can either take a Lambeau Leap to the counter for a sandwich, the back well for a stool and a peek at the tap list or to the right to find yourself some to-go options.
The tap list was well curated on the day of my visit. An eclectic mix of beers from locals to state to foreign. I ordered up a new (to me) IPA from Docent Brewing and really liked the beer though I had to say that getting it in large German Mas was not expected in the least. I also bought a four pack of the Unsung Brewing Chocolate Snowball since they do not distribute up in L.A.
If Mario’s Deli in Glendale added #independent beers, I would be there a lot. So it should come as no surprise that I am thinking of a return trip to Hollingshead.
