Daddy Al’s General Store

Fresh, made-to-order subs and sandwiches have been the draw at Daddy Al’s General Store in Oneonta since 1997. The shelves hold more than lunch, though, with Amish meats and cheeses, local ground beef and sausage and milk in glass bottles. It is a general store in the old-fashioned sense.

The mix of deli and market is what sets it apart. People can grab a sub for lunch and pick up meat and dairy for dinner in the same stop, with an emphasis on local and Amish products.
