I can't say enough about Chapmans deli! It's a family restaurant that you wish you were apart of! The atmosphere is fantastic,the owners David and Ann and their daughter katie are kindest people that Ive had the honor to meet! Ive been going to this deli over 10 years! The best part of this family style restaurant is the food! The bean soup is out of this world!!!! They have sub specials for everyday of the week! With the subs you can have any salad you want on the side, and yes they are home made everyday! Now the best part, other than lunch, is dinner! Oh my gosh! You get to pick out of 4 or 5 different dinner specials! They are to die for!! If you want comfort food, this is your place! So if you don't want to cook dinner that night, surprise your husband or wife with there dinner menu!! I can not rave anymore about this place, you must go there and find out for yourself why Chapmans deli is so amazing! P.s why the other people gave this place one star must not be talking about the same place I'm talking about! there just no way they were talking about the same Chapmans deli lol! Crazy!!! read more

I got a Rueben which was pretty good at a fair price considering it was a large sandwich. Place just looks tired and in need of some serious love. Carpet looks like it's been there for a long time. I just couldn't enjoy my lunch sitting in there. If the front of the store looks like this I worry about the cleanliness of the kitchen and food prep area. Been here for a long time and seems like a local favorite based on reviews. I'll pass the next time I'm through Reading. read more

Been going here for years. Always makes a nice sandwich. Takes care of his customers. Fresh rolls he makes daily.

I buy from this deli exclusively. The food is perfect every time. I love the down home atmosphere even though some on this review sight complain, it's far and away better than any deli, anywhere. New York deli? Yeah. . . Right. How many are still in business? Can't hold a candle stick to this establishment. read more

I can't say enough good things about this deli. Try the chicken cheese steak with provolone and add onions to it. My brother introduced me to this place and has been going here for years. After I had one sandwich, I'll be doing the same. read more

I just ordered though door dash I wanted something from a different deli I don't really like trying new places. I lived in Reading my whole life and always looked past this place. Well let me tell you I wish I would've tried this place out years ago. The food was amazing. I ordered and Italian for me and cheese steak for my son. The freshness of the bread and quality ingredients and size of the sandwich was unbelievable. Delicious. Thank you read more

Chapmans is a family owned restaurant. Good cheesesteaks and Hoagies and affordable specials. Nothing fancy but you get a quality hoagie. they do tend to bicker alot but the food is good. read more

Just ordered the specialty burger and it was delightful, the bun was toasted and the onions and lettuce were as fresh as can be. A wonderful establishment for home cooked food! read more

All of the food looked and smelled great, but customer service ruined all of that for me. If i am paying to eat I do not want my meal to be ruined by bickering employees who cannot seem to work together. The girl that served me rolled her eyes numerous times and would not stop complaining or getting visibly angry in front of all the customers. My meal turned out to be pretty good, and usually I will at least spare two stars for a good meal with bad service, but in this case, my day had a serious raincloud over it due to the bad mood and vibes I received from the girl working here. read more

Dave the owner makes the best sandwich anywhere. My wife and I are big fans of Dave's food. You can tell when someone's love of making a sandwich, and let me tell you, Dave has it going on !! Everyone of his sandwich's are the best !! We are from Lancaster and we will make the 42 mile round trip, that's how great it is ! Their "Special Italian sub " with special sub roll is the best, and with that you get Dave's homemade chips are to die for. There is no better period. read more

I can't imagine what the previous reviewer is talking about. I know that this is a family run deli and they are some of the nicest people you could meet. The food is fresh and always very good. They have worked very hard over the years to provide great food at fair prices and they have done that consistently. Don't be swayed by one customer's bad day...go try Chapmans for yourself...you won't be disappointed. read more

Great cheese steaks! Go local and buy a Chapman's Deli sandwich. Kelly McGillis from top gun use to live on the top floor. Seriously that is no joke!!! read more

We just recently moved to mohnton about a year ago, for the past year we've been trying to find a reputable place to get good sandwiches. Finally tonight we found Chapman's Deli and decided to give them a try, I'm so glad we did! Everything is made fresh and right in front of you! The owner is amazing and the other customers are friendly! Will definitely be returning! read more

The best deli in town! Chapman's never disappoints when it comes to quality and quantity. I would recommend this deli to anyone and everyone who is looking for a great meal. read more

Absolutely fantastic deli sandwiches of all types. Prices are on the medium to high side but the daily specials are a solid value. Everything I've ever had has always been fresh and delicious. Plenty of seating area is always available, even during lunch hour. Only drawback is that customer service is touch lacking. Owner just isn't the most friendly guy but he makes a nice sandwich. =) read more

Great sandwiches. Impressive memory from the staff, took 6 orders at the same time and they were all flawless and delicious.

I've been going to Chapman's for years. I just love their sandwiches. The one that is my favorite is the ham and cheese. I love the taste of an Italian sandwich but with a ham and cheese. So the sandwich has olive oil instead of mayo , salami, cheese, ham, and Italian seasonings, lettuce and tomato. All this on a in store baked roll. What a delicious sandwich! Most of the time my husband and I get a sandwich to go and another one for a lunch the next day. The extra one is prepared so it will be just as great as the first one. Dave is always friendly as well as his wife and daughter. We enjoy discussing current happenings in and around the area since we had lived in the area for years before we moved away. It is a great sandwich as well as the cheese steak , another favorite. read more

10am. Stopped in for the first time after passing by this place for years. I just wanted a deli breakfast staple - bacon, egg, and cheese on a kaiser roll and a cup of coffee. I walked in and was greated by a smokey haze and the decor and sanitary conditions of a low budget trailer home on welfare. Dirty carpet and walls, greasy nooks and crannies, and scuffed 1970's wood paneling. Smokey haze was probably just a grill goof, but the other stuff? Just nasty. They had 5 breakfast specials on the board and the classics were there and priced right. $3.50 for the 2 egg classic. The guy working (appeared to be the owner) greated me with an attitude like I was interrupting his morning routine. No smile, no good morning. Just more of a - what do you want attitude. Mind you I was the only person in the place. The salads and appetizing in the case looked like it was all commercially produced/buy it by the 5 gallon bucket garbage. Cold cuts were Deitz and Watson which generally tastes like crap unless you are from Berks County, PA and don't know any better. THE ONLY COFFEE THEY OFFERED WAS A FRIGGIN (do it yourself) KEURIG MACHINE!! Any commercial eatery trying to sell charge money for Keurig should be fined. So I sit down to eat my sandwhich with no coffee. The eggs were cooked on such a filthy grill that not only were the eggs colored brown and gray with black chunks of stuff everywhere, but they were still runny and the cheese wasn't even melted. The classic deli breakfast tasted like he used the bun to wipe out the grease trap. I choked it down as I looked around and said never again. Stay away from this place for breakfast, and after this first impression they lost me for lunch which I can't imagine being a better experience. read more

They must be coasting on the name. Horribly dirty carpet, ceiling fans have a thick coating of greasy dirt, odd selection of canned sodas. Sandwiches are made with the same bare hands that handle the money. Italian sub was thick slabs of meat with tasteless (refrigerated) tomato slices. Pastrami sandwich was better but nowhere near good. I don't understand why anyone would eat here. read more
