Hey Columbia! Exciting news has just landed in our vibrant city! No Name Deli, well-loved for its fast and fresh food, has officially opened its second location right here in Forest Acres. That’s right! The ribbon-cutting ceremony took place this Tuesday, celebrating the expansion of a local favorite that’s been a hit at their original spot.

For those unfamiliar, owners Chris Davis and Jon Sears are the talented pair behind this tasty venture. These two have quite an impressive resume, owning other local favorites like Hendrix and Jake’s, plus several commercial properties around Five Points, Devine St, and downtown. They are no strangers to the culinary scene, and they’re excited about this new chapter!

A Commitment to Quality and Community

As they welcomed guests into the new deli, Sears shared, “Expanding No Name Deli has been a long-term goal for us, and we’re excited to join the Forest Acres community.” It’s clear they’re thrilled about this expansion while keeping the essence of what made the original deli so special. “While we’re thrilled to grow this brand, our commitment to quality and the welcoming, laid-back atmosphere that our guests know and love remains the same,” he added. That’s what we love to hear! They’ve worked hard to create a space that feels both fresh and familiar.
