Nonno’s. Forever

The best vegan deli sandwiches I’ve ever eaten. The owners are very friendly. We’ve been here many times. Delightful service and generous servings. Take home their “cold cuts” and chicken cutlets. Everything freezes well and it’s so nice to be able to have sandwiches again. They catered our Christmas event last year and no one was vegan but us, but everyone loved the food 

Pros: Taste, Quality, Staff

The best sandwich!

Absolutely incredible sandwich!
I tried to go a couple of weeks ago, but they had already sold out of everything since it was the end of the day. But I had a lovely chat with the owner. I managed to make it back and already found the shop packed at around 11 am.
I decided to go for the gabagool and it was probably one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had! They are very generous with the ingredients and the flavours are incredible. I live out of town, otherwise I would be visiting very regularly!
I am so thrilled to see this business thriving. They deserve every bit of the praise they receive!

The best sandwich I’ve ever had

The Chickun parm sandwich made spicy was the best sandwich I’ve ever had. The staff are amazing. The cold cuts are delicious.

Best Cold Cuts Ever

You will not regret this plant based butcher. It’s been busy every time I go, no wonder why.

Pros: Fully plant based, Affordable

Absolute favourite!

You can’t go wrong with a single thing on their menu. They even supply vegan meats to other local Hamilton vegan spots (Hearty Hooligan and Coven Market). Go try all their sandwiches!

Had the gabagool and it was the best cold sandwich I ever had. I cannot explain how good that sandwich was.

Best vegan deli meats, no question!

I’m obsessed with the sandwiches at Bad Attitude Bread in Toronto, which feature Nonno's deli meats, so I had to make a special trip to visit them at Hamilton Farmers’ Market. They have so many delicious sounding sandwiches, it was hard to choose one, so I went with a recommendation from the person behind the counter. I also took home some roast beef, pastrami, and ham to make my own sandwiches… it’s so good, I have a feeling I won’t need to freeze any! The texture is perfect, and it’s sliced nice and thin. Try it!

Bellissimo

Yeah mate, get stuck into this place. Unfortunately I don’t think my photo does this one justice but the sandwich was so good. I really enjoyed every bite. The staff were also so lovely and everything was ready to go within only about a minute or two. Will come back!

Pros: Great service, Great food, Great price

Absolutely amazing!

It was our first time in Hamilton and Nonno’s was our first stop of the day. So deliciously fulfilling subs! The owners are so down to earth and very friendly, they helped us pick some options to try. Tuscan and Porketta were both awesome. We got some to-go as well. Definitely our favorite place in Hamilton now, we’ll be back for more!

Pros: Delicious everything, Friendly and helpful owners, Creative options

My absolute fav

I’d eat here everyday if I could. Their subs are amazing. We’ve tried multiple off the menu and they’re all good. Even brought picky non vegans here and they loved it. Owners are super nice too!

Closed for a break

We had a hard time finding Nonno’s. For future patrons…. it is downstairs in the market. We were so hoping to try it but a sign said they were closed until some time in October. Next time.

Yummy!

Tiny vegan butcher shop in an indoor market. Good counter service. Only a couple tables to sit. They were out of everything but chicken and pastrami. My chicken parm was fantastic but didn't have the deli slice that normally comes on it. Everyone else in my group had subs made with the pastrami. One non vegan person somehow didn't realize it was vegan and was shocked when he found out halfway through his reuban. Lol they all were impressed.

Best Sub and Deli you will find.

I have been to my fair share of Vegan Deli's and none have been better than this place. Co-founders Celina and Kerry were so warm and friendly, they made the experience welcoming amongst the busyness they juggled so well. Me and my friend ordered the Classico subs and the medley of meats were tasty and well shaved without the usual texture issues of Vegan cold cuts. It REALLY matched the quality, taste and texture of animal flesh. Despite the wealth of Vegan treasures here in Hamilton (Better than Toronto) this is where you need to start (as they open early) before you tour the other places (Coven, Hearty Hooligan, Rise Above).

Pros: Submarine sandwiches, Lovely staff, Ability to buy their Cold cuts to take home.

Cons: Cookies were standard, Seating was limited within the market, Needs more side dishes like fries.

You wouldn’t know it’s vegan!

A wide variety of sandwiches, and deli meats sold separately. They are so flavourful and taste exactly like animal products. The chicken parm sandwich was by far the best. The pricing is extremely reasonable.

Pros: Flavourful , Wide variety , Fair pricing
