“We are thrilled to offer a variety of delicious new menu offerings from The Borscht Belt Delicatessen right here in the St. Mary Medical Center cafeteria,” says Suzette Cunicelli, vice president of Professional and Support Services at St. Mary Medical Center. “Just as we strive to provide the highest level of patient care possible, we also prioritize the patient experience. The convenient availability of high-quality food options is a big part of that experience.”
Grand Opening Event
A ribbon-cutting event will be held in the St. Mary cafeteria at 10 a.m. on Monday, November 13 to mark the opening of the Borscht Belt at St. Mary. Attendees will be treated to free samples of a variety of bagels and spreads from the Borscht Belt.
Bucks County native and celebrity chef Nick Liberato, co-founder and executive chef at the Borscht Belt, will be present at the grand opening event. After building a successful catering career in Los Angeles and appearing on several food-themed television shows, Liberato returned home to Bucks County in 2020 to form a hospitality group that launched the original Borscht Belt location in Stockton, N.J., in June 2021. The Borscht Belt moved to its current location in Newtown in May 2023.
“At The Borscht Belt Delicatessen, we’re excited to join forces with St. Mary Medical Center, bringing some favorites from our menu to their cafeteria,” Liberato says. “We’re here to provide the hospital with the comfort that great food provides.”

About The Borscht Belt Delicatessen
The Borscht Belt Delicatessen concept launched from 618 Hospitality Group’s reaction to the communal cry in 2020 for the longing of missed family, culture and authentic food that ties us all together. Instantly, the “Shangri-la” days of the Borscht Belt era came to mind as a source of reference for founders celebrity chef Nick Liberato and Mike Dalewitz. Extensive research, passion and development ensued for an exciting 2021 inaugural launch in Stockton, N.J. The Borscht Belt’s Stockton location closed in Winter 2023 in preparation for a newer, bigger and bolder iteration of The Borscht Belt in Newtown, Pa., which opened in Spring 2023 and is now franchising. The Borscht Belt delivers a heightened culinary experience featuring the best of the NYC delicatessen, bagels, appetizing and baked goods. Like the Borscht Belt of the Catskills, laughter and music of the 50s and 60s flourishes amongst a place patrons frequent to find comfort and nourishment. With an array of take-out, dine-in and large-format catering options, this reimagined delicatessen salutes a bygone period that has long needed a home to remind us how food, family and friends were once served and how they can be again. Always offering a taste of the past, yet delivered with a contemporary gourmet twist, food connoisseurs across the foodie spectrum with wallets of all sizes relish and celebrate.
