Van Horn Sandwich Shop is serving up Southern sandwiches made with local meat and veg.

A "delicious piece of the South in Brooklyn", this Cobble Hill sandwich shop serves up a "bevy of sammies" made with local "pulled pork, fish and the bird" for eat-in or takeout; cocktails and beers are a draw at night, biscuits are a pull at brunch, and the picket-fenced backyard is a beacon in warm weather.

Tar Heels from way back team up on low-key southern spot. Family recipes culled for authentic takes on buttermilk fried chicken, cornmeal catfish, and vinegary pulled pork.

Taps stick close to home, pouring Kelso, Blue Point, and sweet, sweet Six Point Sweet Action.
