A taste of New York City mixed with a little Prohibition inspiration: Galvin's Deli will open soon at 216 William Street.
Owners Paul and Emma Stoddard are combining family history with culinary experience to offer a new Fredericksburg dining experience. Paul was a co-owner of Sunken Well Tavern for almost 20 years until he recently sold his stake in 2024. Emma grew up in New York City, raised on Jewish deli foods and worked in restaurants and bakeries. In the early 1900s, her great-grandfather owned Martin Galvin's Cafe in New Jersey. Emma said, "We married those ideas together to bring Galvin’s to life again."
Galvin's focuses on homemade foods, including "from-scratch" proteins like pastrami, corned beef brisket, and roasted turkey, as well as hand-made bagels and baked goods. Paul said part of what makes Galvin's unique is making their own, in-house meats instead of buying mass-produced products. The deli will be a grab-and-go sandwich shop with hot soups available daily. The deli counter offers classic deli foods like potato salad, smoked salmon, pimento cheese, deli salads, and latkes.
