A quaint addition to the town of South Bend, the General Deli is housed in the simple brick building that gave it its name. Originally a General Store in the 1800s, the structure is perfect for the setting inside. The storied space has been transformed into a warm, inviting cafe, where an exposed brick storefront and curated local artwork meet to foster a welcoming ambiance that feels both comfortable and refined.
Design
The deep tone of the buckskin upholstery on the perfectly lined wall benches gives the feel of a more traditional setting, while the bright modern landscapes and prints on the creme colored walls provide a subtle balance of tasteful modern design.
There is a casual aspect to the venue as well. Skewed floor mats upset the balance of a perfectly laid plank floor, and simple table seating setups allow for a relaxed feel that makes patrons want to linger. Designed to be true to its roots, the scene is set by the decor to eliminate any sense of hurry, offering a slower-paced atmosphere where time has almost forgotten.
