Fanelli’s Deli & Market is the most recent addition to the new, indoor mini-mall City Market at 120 Franklin Street, and the owner’s goal is to bring a touch of Upstate New York and Italy to downtown Clarksville. “This is our home away from home now,” Fanelli’s owner, Lynn Sodeman, told Clarksville Now.

Sodeman is from Rochester, New York, but moved to Clarksville in 2013 to be closer to her son and his family. “Growing up in Rochester, it’s like little Italy. I grew up in an Italian family, and we miss our delis. We don’t really have that here,” Sodeman said.
