"Every neighborhood needs its own Archies Deli & Mini Mart. At its North Hollywood store, there’s a constant stream of customers buying drinks, lighters, or something to eat with a few small tables outside, making it a perfect people-watching spot on Magnolia Boulevard — so order something and settle in for awhile. Take a moment to peruse shelves holding potato chips and snacks from all over the world (Rap Snacks, Thai barbecue pork Lays, and Japanese steak Cheetos), plus wonderfully stocked sodas like pineapple Canada Dry, Minute Maid watermelon punch, and Faygo cotton candy. This is the type of sandwich shop with a long menu and two-handers: try a tuna melt on sourdough; a meatball sub; a classic cold Italian layered with salami, mortadella, capicola, and provolone; or my new favorite, a honey barbecue chicken sub with cheddar, ranch, avocado, and Funyuns for added crunch — and eat it while at Archie’s; soggy Funyuns simply will not do." - Eater Staff
