Mike's Famous Ham Place

Sandwich shop · Core City

"Steamed ham hocks are front and center in the shop window at Mike’s Famous Ham Place, a diner-style restaurant specializing in ham sandwiches, ham and eggs, and pea soup. Customers can sit at the counter and watch their meat carved right from the bone and onto a fluffy poppy seed roll. Take cash." - Serena Maria Daniels
