When Kristina Mazza and her husband moved to Indiana in 2007 to be closer to her parents, they quickly realized they missed the delis and hoagie shops that they grew up with in South East Pennsylvania.
With a degree in Restaurant and Hospitality Management from Penn State University in 2022, she pursued a General Management position at the former Elbow Room and a few years later became Operations Manager for the LUX Restaurants in Indianapolis.
After many years of having family and friends from back east send them grub from PA, Kristina decided it was time to bring it here for all Indianapolis to enjoy. With bread coming from South Jersey, meat, pickles, and chips coming from Philly and the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch Country, Kristina hoped to give our new home of Indy a taste of what South East PA comfort food is all about.
Kristina and her team have been serving up Pennsylvania style Hoagies and Cheesesteaks along with Pennsylvania Dutch specialties in Indy since 2015. Using Liscio’s Rolls from South Jersey, Dietz & Watson cold cuts, house sauces, Seltzer’s Lebanon Bologna and slicing Delmonico Ribeyes in house you will surely get a southeast Pennsylvania experience right in the Butler Tarkington Neighborhood!
Join Kristina and her team at Hoagies & Hops for the 6th Annual Hoagie Eating Contest Benefitting HVAF of Indiana!
