    Jerk Turkey with Swiss, lettuce and honey mustard.
    Alyssa R.

    This place is, as far as I'm concerned, the best deli in Clinton Hill... for a multitude of reasons: #1 their name is annoyingly clever. Farmer in the Dell/Deli? Come on - tell me you don't remember singing that silly nursery rhyme way back in like 1st grade? The farmer in the dell The farmer in the dell High-ho the derry-o The farmer in the dell I've caught myself humming it twice now while waiting for my sandwich. :-X #2 They've got a good lineup of meats, cheeses & condiments available for sandwiches. Options include the classics honey turkey, roast beef and grilled chicken; plus spicy options like jerk turkey and buffalo chicken. Cheeses range from good ol' fashioned American to Muenster and everything in between. #3 Prices are on point. $4.50-5.50 for a roll, $5.50-$6.50 (I think) for a hero. And they don't cheap out on the meats either. #4 There's a plethora of snacks and drinks in the deli as well. Arizona teas (still just $1!), Vitamin Water, Pepsi, etc etc. #5 The Staff is so welcoming and have been so nice each and every time I come in for lunch. I've been there several times in the last few months and have no plans to stop. They make a good sandwich so why would I? If you stop by for lunch - I highly recommend the following: jerk turkey, Swiss, bacon (it might be turkey bacon), honey mustard and lettuce. So good, especially when they warm it up.

    Hi-ho the Deli, yo!! We stopped here and got a couple sandwiches to go - a turkey pastrami and a roast beef. We walked, bused and trained to our location - about 3 hours - before cracking open that little gift wrapped torpedo of flavor. When we opened our sandwiches and bit into them, there was no way of knowing they had been sitting in the bottom of a plastic bag for hours, being crushed. When I bit into my roast beef, it's as if the gods delivered a message to my mouth, saying "we aren't worthy - there's only one true God and it's evident in the craftsmanship of this sandwich." When I was in the deli I tried to make small talk with the sandwich king behind the counter. He's not one for small talk. I asked him if he recommended anything. He said, "place your order." But when he started slicing the beef and slapping onto the bread, it's like he said "I heard you and I love you, but I've got to keep up this facade behind the counter. I'll make up for it with an amazing sandwich." So he did. The turkey pastrami was also really good, but my heart belongs to that roast beef.

    Go to Pratt gourmet deli instead. The staff is actually pleasant to be around there unlike at farmer in the deli

    It's actually about frustration in signing up for online shopping; I have tried randomly over a…read moreperiod of months to get a functioning account and have never succeeded. Nor can I get anyone who "does" the online service management or get relevant answers from the Contact Us link. Last night I got to the checkout, and then the site kept asking me for the order number. ??? That ended the order going through. Mohammed tried to help by doing it verbally over the phone but there were too many items to deal with. It had been a go-to-shop for me since it opened, but after an accident I can't easily go in-person and now apparently I can't shop there at all or find anyone who is responsible/helpful for the site's customer functionality.

    This has been my (very) local grocery store for over a decade, and unfortunately it has taken a…read moresteep turn downhill. What was once a family-owned, excellent grocery store run by wonderful people who cared is now a Key Food with a different name. I mean that literally; they were bought by Key Food during the pandemic, and they laid off all the employees (that we loved), brought in more self-checkout, and the quality of the produce has fallen off a cliff, while the prices have climbed to extortionist levels. For the most part, the replacement staff is quite nice and usually helpful (there are a couple bad apples that seem upset you need assistance). The guys behind the prepared food counter will do a solid job on your sandwich, and the cashiers are usually pleasant and almost always efficient. They still have a rewards program where if you spend around $250 and you get like $10 credit. (Hey, it's better than nothing.) The expansion of the store a few years back means they truly have just about everything, and the beer and ice cream selections are actually phenomenal (but overpriced). However, produce we buy is occasionally going bad already, and the prices are wildly out of control. I paid $7 for two onions last week. It becomes harder and harder to justify shopping here when it's more expensive than Fresh Direct, and vastly more pricey than the fruit and vegetable spots a few blocks away. I don't risk the meat and fish any longer (not with Paisanos and Fish Tales in the hood), although Bell & Evans chicken is quite reliable. Basically, Brooklyn Fare went from an incredible market to have across street to a last-resort for items I forgot to purchase elsewhere in the neighborhood, at reasonable prices. They know we're coming in when we need something, and we're going to pay for it. Despite these shortcomings, it's still great to have a corner store that has just about everything. I can still run out and grab some milk for my wife's cookies when I've finished the last drop and she looks particularly stabby. But it's going to cost $7 for half a gallon.
