The best deli in Long Island. It's a must stop. Everything is good and the chicken cutlet supreme is always a good option.

$20 just for a cheese burger with little bit of fries that didn't even taste good is crazy.

What an awesome spot for deli sandwiches. The hero bread is really good and the sandwich options to fill them with are abundant. We tried the Italian combo and the chicken cutlet melt. Both awesome. Also got an oversized homemade brownie which was lights out. We're only here for the weekend but I'd happily come back next time in town. They have coffee and breakfast options as well including breakfast sandwiches on hard rolls which is my favorite. The prices are also super low ($10~ sandwich) relative to everything else in town. A great find. read more

First, we were shocked at our 29.99 bill for one sandwich, 1/4 lb of potato salad, and 2 small bottled iced teas. The drinks were 4.99 each... way more than in other delis. The potato salad was so sour that it made you pucker and made me question whether it was spoiled. I had asked for olive oil to be drizzled on my sandwich... I believe it was not olive oil but tasted like stale, used oil from deep frying, and gave the sandwich a really bad taste. Sorry Grateful Deli... not Grateful I wasted so much money on bad food. Won't be back... read more

As an early riser I am always in search of an early breakfast option. This place opens at 5am. In my 2 recent visits I found out what looks like a good price value rapidly increases with any deviation from the norm. Got a 2 egg/toast/home fry platter listed for $6.98 When checking out my bill came to $8.50? When questing the bill I was told I was charged .50 for the jelly I asked for. Woman stated "There is nothing for free" Came back the next morning and ordered a Bacon/Egg/Cheese on a roll for $5.98. At the check out I was billed $9.10 Again when questioned I was told that my 1 slice of American Cheese was $2.50 additional. WTF? I told both the husband and wife owners that I didn't want it, and replace it with just a Bacon and egg sandwich. After they saw I was serious he reluctantly agreed to give it to me at the $5.98 price. My issues with them are not the extra costs but the principle of nickle and dime upcharges they must do with everyone. They should just raise their pricing. But they probably make more by selling .50 jelly and $2.50/slice American Cheese read more

Got 2 sandwiches, bottle of water, bag of chips and cookies COST $52- talk about rip off and price gauge!! When I questioned it she smiled politely and shrugged. Since I was in a jam and needed to eat, I paid it but you don't have to! read more

This place SUCKS!! This place only gets 2 stars because the food tasted quite nice, but it's a mess in there. I walked in at around 1pm and there were so many people crammed in that small building, and there was no exact spot for where the line was. Another day when I walked in during the morning on my way back home to the Southampton it was one of the only places opened so I stopped there for a quick breakfast sandwich a young young looking girl was working there and she seemed very tired, but after all it was 7am (CRAZY) she took my order after she asked me to repeat it a few times but it's okay because she was very nice about it and was obviously tired she made sure she got my order 100% correct which I appreciated. When I sat down to wait for my meal I couldn't help but notice the trail of ants all over the table and about a minute later the owner of the deli pulled that young girl to the back by her arm and as I was looking for a drink I couldn't help but overhear the woman yelling at the poor girl saying she did something wrong with an order, and not only did this happen once, it happened 3 TIMES in the short time I was in there. Each time after the talking to I noticed that young girl who couldn't be over the age of 13-14 looked noticeably upset and stressed after each of those times she got literally PULLED to the back. Not to mention these prices were CRAZY not that I mind paying a little extra to smaller businesses, but I will say there is a problem when you charge customers well over double the price that is on their website and menu inside. PLEASE save your time and go somewhere else, I'm sure you can find better quality food for cheaper somewhere else. P.S. I hope that poor young girl is okay and got out of that TOXIC environment and can get a better job. read more

Staff is really nice and the food has always been spot on. To the mope (Jim) who's whining about them asking you to spend 10 bucks for a debit card just doesn't understand how debit works and should get a grip. I'm sure people really love being around you. read more

Used this deli for catering and was overcharged for moldy cheese. Be careful and get pricing before giving any credit card info as they charged us without a invoice read more

horrible horrible horrible. first of all, we got 3 'gourmet' sandwiches & a side of fry's and it was $61. the portion of fry's was pathetic for a large, and had no salt. grossly overpriced. 2 of our sandwiches were missing ingredients & i was charged for extra avocado which would be fine if i had gotten more than 2 pathetic slivers. i called to complain and they laughed an apology saying, 'so sorry, we forgot' and suggested we come back to have them ADD the missing ingredients. i'm not driving 20 minutes again for anything less than a remake + refund. do not effing go here. sick of places being ridiculously over priced and having horrible service + horrible quality food. if i could give 0 stars, i would. read more

Grateful Deli - this was my avocado upcharge? cmon... "Excellent choice" missing basil. also was expecting this to be a hot sandwich.. - Delis Near Me - Southold, New York

Awesome spot to stop for deli/breakfast sandwiches. They also make Kimchi dumplings that are to die for!!!!! Lovely little family establishment read more

I was really excited to get a delicious, healthy salad from this deli. We have been loyal customers for years getting their sandwiches and LOVE them. So, I thought it was nice to have healthier salad options. I ordered the Tuscan salad which includes grilled chicken, mozzarella, roasted red peppers, avocados and lettuce. I was very upset with the amount of ingredients that came in the salad - while the amount of grilled chicken was fine the rest was about less than 1/4 cup of mozzarella, less than 1/4 cup of roasted red peppers and two thin, small slivers of avocado and then about 4 giant cups worth of lettuce. This salad was over $10 but worth WAY less - it really was a waste of my money. I was really disappointed in the scant amount of ingredients and will NOT go back here again. Sorry Grateful Deli....you lost my service. read more

When you stop st a deli everyday spending $15 or more and then one day you spend $7.88 and you go to use a debit card and the cashier said no, i needed to spend $10.00 to use my debit card, 3 years ago and never went back. Obviously, they are not appreciative of their customers who spend $100 or more a week. read more

When I woke up early in Cutchogue, visiting my mom for a few days, The Grateful Deli in Southold first came to mind and COFFEE! Lol I ordered a B&E breakfast sandwich and a apple turnover, both were delish! Service was quick, Staff and customers were all so friendly and cheerful! I wound up going back for lunch with my mom and then again after that, "Third Time's The Charm," for another coffee and a Chocolate Brownie with Walnuts that was to die for! Can't wait to venture back out to Southold and get out of the City, to see my new found family! Lol Cheers! read more

This place has a lot of options whether you're vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. Very delicious and fast service! It hads loads of options from breakfast, lunch, and dinner ranging from things like, hot food, salads, sandwiches, burgers, etc.. 5/5 rating read more

This place never gets my order right. Last time I ordered a breakfast sandwich with bacon and I got home and it was just bacon on the sandwich no eggs or cheese. This time I ordered two sandwiches bacon egg and cheese and sausage egg and cheese. And people bought both with ketchup. Neither one of them have ketchup and they forgot the sausage. So inconvenient and they write down on the paper what's gonna go on the sandwich for The Cook. I question whether or not The Cook is sober or just doesn't care.?? Oh well next time I drive an extra five minutes and go someplace else. read more

Serviceable deli, food is nothing special. If you want Turkey on a roll, it's fine. However, I resent that the owners are using the greatest American band for marketing their business. The staff all have Grateful Dead t-shirts, they play videos of the band on the TV, but when I asked who is the Deadhead, the girl laughed and said, "we are just using the theme". Yuck. read more

I ordered several trays of food for my daughter's wedding (getting ready in the morning). All the trays were very full and arranged beautifully. The fruit was ripe, the wraps were fresh and the veggie and cheese/cracker trays were huge! Michelle was wonderful to work with. read more

This place is ridiculously awesome for the North Fork. It's a few notches up from what we're accustomed to at local deli's. Like, avocado? Seriously? They are also quick and friendly. Woo! read more

I ordered a grilled chicken/cheese with trimmings. When I opened later for lunch I had the egg on a roll the guy in back of me ordered. I called the following day and was told that 10:30/11am is their busy time of the day and it is my responsibility to check my order. So open the wrapping and check your sandwich before leaving the store as I paid $14 for an egg sandwich. They held me responsible for THEIR mistake!!! read more

We used this deli last summer to cater a boat ride for our families right before our wedding, and then again the morning of our wedding. Not only is the food delicious, the owners and staff are SO friendly and accommodating. We came back to southold this week for a family trip on the boat and have been back twice so far for breakfast and lunch. Good food, great sandwiches, plenty of things to grab and go. Would highly recommend!! read more

This place is horrible! My lunch order was completely wrong. They must have confused the order with another order. The worst part was I called back to let them know and some lady kept hanging up on me and sounded like she did not understand one word I was saying. Must have called 3 or 4 times to see if I could resolve this but they lady was ridiculous. Now I will file a dispute since the girl did not want to deal with me read more

Good little deli. Fresh ingredients. Large Subs (think better than subway for the same price). They have pre-made wraps and salads, as well as good sides (pasta salad, Vermont chicken salad, etc). If you're looking for a LI deli, this lives up to that for sure. read more

It was a blistery-cold Thursday January morning on the East end and I was in the mood for a honkerin' egg sandwich prior to the 730a Orient Point Ferry departure. The locals told me to go here and so I did... I ordered 2 eggs, tomato, grilled chicken with salt and pepper on wheat toast. It was just "eh" - the sandwich looked kinda disappointing and thin, the grilled chicken was in tiny cubes that reminds you of the ones you scoop in to your salad at the Sizzler salad bar and overall, it was just blah. Next time I'll go back to the Piping Plover Cafe just down the road... THIS has been a review by Gaurav read more

I can't tell what I like more, their chicken reuben wrap or the people serving it. The folks running this place are so friendly and sweet, I might almost forget how amazing the wraps are. Well, specifically this one wrap because I've never ordered anything else- but it's got grilled chicken, bacon, tomato, coleslaw and thousand island dressing. I love it so much I called in advance to order 2- one for lunch and one for the road, except the second one only lasted another hour until I ate it. :( But apart from chicken reuben wrhapsodies (eh?) it's a cute deli with fun and great food! read more

I'll admit. We'd had a couple glasses of wine at neighboring vineyards, arrived just a little tipsy and starving. The owners are so incredibly nice, and I ordered a Philly steak wrap, a bag chips and a giant (much needed) bottle of water. My wrap was piping hot and delicious. Service is fast and very friendly. What a lifesaver! read more

I just picked up a good sized order and the staff at this deli was absolutely wonderful. Food looks fresh and there's a wide variety to choose from. Highly recommend. read more

The place is clean and the woman behind the counter was sweet. I bought a mushroom/spinach wrap for $6.75. Not a bad price. I asked for red onion added to the wrap and a 1/4lb of Cole slaw. When she rung my order up I saw the wrap price and .75 but the total came to $10.06 so I asked. She showed me the receipt....wrap...$6.75.....the red onion if I got one thin slice... .75 and the 1/4lb Cole slaw $1.75. Really??? For the price of onion and Cole slaw??? Just wanted to warn the next person to ask the cost! I also noticed there was other items there that did not have prices on them. read more

A very good deli and a trip I always look forward to making when I am in LI. A nice mid day break from laying out. Not a typical deli, the sandwiches for lack of a better term just seem "fancier", but in a hmm this is unexpected & nice way. Never pretentious of course... The staff are so nice and friendly and the place is very clean. Worth a trip to try something new. Wayside Deli is right across the street. Which, you may think ahh competition! Gasp! Although they are both deli's, I really think they are different and each are great in their own was. Grateful Deli is a slightly more upscale deli, offering something completely different the Wayside. read more

Fresh Deli sandwiches made to order. Have been here many times. Quick service by helpful staff. Stopped by after closing one day last week and they saw us and while we were walking to car they invited us In and to make sandwiches. read more

I stop here on my way to work, I'm always greeted warmly and we usually laugh about something. Great way to start my day!! The food is really good, fresh and made daily, not to mention the coffee. But lets talk about it anyway ;) I don't know how they can make it taste that good... The owners and staff are simply wonderful and it has to be one of the cleanest deli's I have ever been in. If you are looking for a new place to stop look no further!!! read more

Great little deli for breakfast or lunch sandwiches. Food is always fresh, and the staff is amazing! Great selection of food, chips, drinks, etc. Highly recommend for takeout sandwiches on the North Fork - whether you're heading to the wineries or to the beach. read more

Our go to spot for delicious deli sandwiches! Much better than Wayside across the street. We get a hero with turkey, havarti, lettuce, tomato, red onion, spicy peppers, mayo and avocado. Perfectly made every time... So good! read more

Sunday morning big breakfast is a staple for the boyfriend and I. The past few weeks, our first pick Bonnie Jean's has been packed. Rather than waiting this week, we went across the street to the Grateful Deli. Knowing that it wasn't sit-down service, we didn't have high expectations but even the low expectations were not meet. Upon entering, you could see there was no organization as to who was ordering, where the line was, who was waiting for food, who was paid. Just confusion everywhere. After we did order a simple order of: HEC SPK for me, and pancakes and sides for him and his brother, we sat at a table. (good that they do have a few table there to sit). My sandwich came out right away. I was impressed how fast it came out, but I feel it should have come out with the guys' breakfast. Basic HEC on a roll. Nothing impressive - but not judging, that's all I asked for. I waited to eat with the guys. Almost 10 minutes later, their food came out. Orders mixed up. Wrong meats with wrong pancakes, ect. When they told the lady, she just looked at them. Didn't offer to take it back and switch it or bring new. Nothing. Just looked at the guys. They switched their own food. None of the food was impressive. My big reason for discontent is in my lackluster sandwich is when I opened it to put my ketchup on it, there was a pieces of what I think was perhaps OVER fried bacon on my sandwich. Which was clearly visible to whoever made my sandwich but just ignored. I stopped eating. I would like to have had a different experience, especially after others gave it such good reviews. It would take a LOT of convincing from the boy to go back. & not for breakfast. read more

What is the best thing about Grateful Deli? It's a serious competition between the food and the service. The food is just delicious. Egg sandwiches, wraps, salads. YUMMY!! The people who work there are just so friendly. It's always a treat to stop at this place because I know that I'll leave smiling and with a full belly! Definitely take a trip to Grateful Deli and see for yourself... So glad that my sister suggested this place!!! My new favorite. read more

If you are heading out on the boat or out to the beach and are on the run, this is the deli for you. They are always friendly and the service is lightening fast.

If you need to grab a lunch as you explore the activities on the North Fork, this is a must s read more

Solid deli here in Southold. Always makes great sandwiches and wraps, no matter what you get. They have a nice selection of stuff, and it's nice and fresh. A little on the pricey side, but worth it, especially for those lovely summer beach day picnics. read more

They change the prices if you're a regular vs not a regular, the owner michelle is rude, the bagels are consistently old and they pay their staff very poorly! and infrequently! Grateful Deli has been a staple of downtown Southold but Wayside Market (across the street) is just all around better and a better place to give business. read more
