Reviews for Anania's Congress St - Libbytown in Portland, ME

Easy stop to grab hot or cold ready to go or order onsite items. Nice selection of local craft beers, wines or champagne as well... as non alcoholic beverages to grab with your meal. Fresh salads and sandwiches in the cooler as well as items to take home andheat later. Call ahead or order in pastas, hot subs, pizzas to go as well. Limited parking, however not hard to get in and out.Nice spot with friendly staff and deserts to take with you. Read more

Walked 7 min from the train station because we were early! Had a cold spicy Italian and a hot steak and cheese - they were so... good!!!! Staff were so kind, service was great! Small, quaint - get a drink and food for the road plus a sandwich all in thesame place! Highly recommend!!! Read more

Food is excellent but, the older man that works the counter is very rude. I go in at least twice a week - the food is always... great. Tonight, I tried to call for a half hour, couldn?t get through so, I drove there & arrived at 7:20-7:30 (they close at8). There was not one person in the store - the man was just ignoring the phones while the other gentleman was already cleaningthe grill. There was a grey haired guy running the counter who was hostile, rude & very unwelcoming. I work overnights, on aroad crew, this was my dinner and the only thing I will probably eat tonight - I?m grateful I got to order food but, a coldsandwich and a miserable experience was definitely not what I had in mind. Not sure I?ll be back?. Read more

A convenience store doesn't always scream "culinary deliciousness", especially where we are from in Cleveland, OH. However,... Anania's was a game-changer! I got a fish sandwich, was was delicious even if it was from a seaside restaurant. My wife got aHUGE and delicious piece of lasagna. Those whoopie pies are something else! Wow! Read more

I didn't realize I was walking into a legend. Fantastic Italian based sandwich shop and bodega. I wouldn't need a grocery store... if I lived by this place. Top quality Maine Italian and anything you want to drink. I got a cider. Highly recommend. Read more

My buffalo chicken sub was wet with sauces, the chicken was cold and my husband's steak sub had a string (?) in it? Worst... sandwich around. Read more

DELICIOUS food, great service and very polite staff. My personal favorite is their capicola Italian add chicken salad, and a... gluten-free whoopie pie; So good! Highly recommended. Read more
