Greek themed deli with fresh meats, unbelievable good bargain hot meals, and meatballs that are out of this world. Extensive wine cellar. Also sells beer, coffee all day, and convenience store needs with fresh vegetables as well. A menu stock full of old world greek recipes like mousaka, spanakopata, and pastichio that change daily, and soups like avgolemono (chicken, egg, and lemon rice) and creamy chowders. Prices for lunch range from $8-$12. This recent South End addition is owned by George Tsaousidis and Anna Barounis who stock the best food, grocery essentials, and wine and beer for the South End resident that is looking for a local one stop shop. The bodega of my dreams.

Barbershop Deluxe is a favorite South End barber shop reminiscent of the 1930's, complete with red white and blue barber pole, offering traditional and modern hair cuts to men and boys. Guys who appreciate the barbershop tradition will be at home here, but if you’re after a convenient nearby appointment and an expert stylish cut, Barbershop Deluxe is a cool alternative to the overpriced Back Bay and Newbury St spots. Barbers Christina, Jon, and Tim stay on top of the latest men’s hair styles (fades, short layers, faux hawks, high-and-tights, tapers, buzz, Caesars, bald, etc.) and offer a selection of in-use men’s grooming products (AG Hair Cosmetics, American Crew, Sexy Hair, KMS California) to keep your style looking fresh and now between cuts. Formerly at 670 Tremont Street, Barbershop Deluxe creates a quaint neighborhood setting with a friendly vibe where residents and visitors can congregate, catch up on local happenings and enjoy each other's company while receiving quality grooming services. Art from local artists brightens the new, larger space at a more convenient location, on Columbus Ave. across from Back Bay Station near the corner of Clarendon St., three blocks from Park Square, Copley Square, and Copley Place. Student cuts $18. Walk-ins welcome.

This 7-Eleven was formerly a Christy's location, the bygone convenience store chain owned by Christy Mihos, who ran an unsuccessful gubernatorial campaign in 2006.
