Appalachian Market is a staple of Putnam County and a busy, popular deli. The food is decent, fantastic, and elite, with the best breakfast and lunch sandwiches around that are really delicious and described as a typical deli sammy. Some note the workers can be short, attributing it to a difficult clientele. A key criticism is that they never seem to make enough home fries and will run out. The menu is seen as limited, especially for vegetarians, with one sorry and uninspired vegetarian option. Despite some flaws, it remains a place customers will definitely return to when in the area.
