Our Story

Our Beginning

Our Beginning

Taylor Gourmet began in Philadelphia, inspired by the flavors of the 9th Street Italian Market and classic neighborhood hoagie shops. Unable to find a great hoagie in DC, the founder and a friend decided to create their own. After a decade of growth, new ownership under Steve Kalifa continues the mission of delivering high-quality hoagies to the DC area, with more locations coming soon.

A Thoughtfully Designed Experience

Consumers expect more from a Taylor Gourmet meal, and that extends to our spaces. Our stores are designed with the same care as our recipes, creating a fresh and exciting atmosphere. With exposed brick, reclaimed wood, custom metal details, garage doors, and local artwork, each location offers a raw, authentic experience that sets Taylor Gourmet apart.
