Love. Love. Love. I grew up in Highland Mills for 13 years and have lived in Atlanta for the last 12 years and at least once a week Jay's is brought up in conversation between all of my relatives. We miss our quick dinners and snacks. Great for bringing dinner home, eating there, or grabbing a snack on the road. We like to drive from GA to NY and this is the best place to grab food to go. Quality food is made and you're not paying for junk processed meals. Mash potatoes, chicken, and the best for last: mac and cheese! read more

All my orders are well made, on time and always delicious. Whether it's a sandwich, pastry or a pizza and dinners. They are always very good read more

Great sandwiches. Nice and hardy loaded with meat and whatever cheese you desire you. The hit meals are decent for a quick bite for lunch. Loving the new renovations read more

I've been coming here for years. Food is consistently good. Service depends on the day. Sometimes it's great, some times it's like this morning where it was really unorganized and the line was really long. Nothing particularly special about it honestly except the food which is worth it in my opinion. read more

The hot table is incredible!! The sandwiches are amazing and the staff is incredibly helpful too. 5 stars to Colleen and her crew!

Great, dependable deli with so many delicious hot entrees too! Their dill chicken salad is my favorite thing in the whole world. I go way out of my way to get it on my day off. read more

Jay's is another jewel of the Hudson Valley. The menus variety is amazing most is ready to take out or eat in. I've never had anything there I didn't like from sandwiches to yummy Chicken Marsala! ( and the baked goods!!!)The staff is lovely and Colleen the owner could not be more accommodating, Kind and Generous! Stop by on your way through Highland Mills, you won't be disappointed! read more

Let me start by saying the Old Man with the white hair that's always in the front is Rude and Racist. I've never dealt with someone that's always so consistently rude, every time I checkout it's an attitude and he'll say "you're good" as if I can't afford it or he expects my card to decline. I tried not to think the worst and say it's just him but my last and final time there, he told the white lady in front of me to have a good day. meanwhile all i get is "you're good" im extremely dissapointed in this man and this establishment and they absolutely won't be seeing me or my money ever again! Also they don't even keep their meats and cheeses wrapped up everything is just thrown back in there and they barely clean their slicers or the fridge. it's just an overall mess!! SMH! read more

I have to say their food is Amazing! We had a tragedy this past week and Jays Deli donated food to our family today. Penne, chicken parm, chicken with lemon, ziti with meat and a lot more. We are so deeply appreciative. This place also has amazing sandwiches and some house hold items as well. We can't thank you enough! So if you in the area be sure to stop in. Thank you Jays!! read more

Great food! Old school deli with everything you can imagine. Breakfast pizza is off the chain

I had a last minute family get together with about 12 people. Jay's was able to accommodate my order for 3 half trays with 2 days notice. We had penne vodka, chicken francese and smashed red potatoes with bacon. Every dish was great, especially the potatoes. The food was ready at the agreed upon time and the aluminum trays came inside cardboard boxes for easy transport. My guests were impressed and looked forward to our next catered event. It's nice to know some businesses still care about quality and service.Jay's Deli truly is the heart and soul of Woodbury. read more

This place is so good! It's worth the trip even if you don't live close. The sandwiches are to die for cold cuts are fresh and bread is so fresh. All the sides are amazing. read more

You see how on this app it says they are open from now till 5pm? Well my dumbass believed it. I need something from jays deli so i'm walking outside in the FREEZING ASS WEATHER to get what i want, right. Tell me why i get to the door and that shit is closed. Now lemme just tell you there food is good, but they need to fix there time on this app and the time on google . Every time i check to see if they are open it always gives the wrong time . Like you at least could have put "hours may differ due to Christmas" and i wouldn't be mad if i found out it had closed because you basically let me know . But bro please update the website and this app and everything else that has your guys time cause i was really outside in this cold ass icy weather . read more

Can only say wonderful things about Colleen and her crew. They provided the food for our party on June 30th. We received so many compliments from our pleased guests about how tasty everything was. Jay's, y'all Rock! read more

food, im not sure about service, had situations where prices can change from day to day ambiance, is nice but some not all staff demeanor can be questionable...im going to keep going it's an a location that also carries the stuff I might need read more

Love having this great deli and market in our hamlet. Great sandwiches, pizza...looking forward to trying their daily deals. Love supporting this great local gem! read more

We used them to cater our son's first communion. Very good food. When you factor in how cheap the food was you can't go wrong. A tray of food that normally costs 70-90 elsewhere was 55. The quality of food is very good. It's not unbelievably great but it's not bad at all. We will use them again for any functions we will have in the future read more

I'd been dying to try this place & finally got around to going-- great sandwiches. All of their hot food looked really good, but I only got to try the mac and cheese... don't skip their mac and cheese!! My husband, who doesn't even usually like mac and cheese, tried to eat it all on me. It's that good. read more

This is a full service deli with excellent sandwiches. The deli counter is lightning fast but their hard work is undermined by a dated and slow credit card processor. Check out lines for the cashier are extremely long and frustrating when you are in a rush. Otherwise, this deli is fantastic and it has a big inventory of grocery store items. read more

Today was my first time going there. Staff was very busy. Delicious sandwich. Thank you for your generosity. read more

Best wings I've had in ages. Delicious handmade sandwiches. Hot food every day and it's fresh and delicious.

Called Jays deli today and ordered 2 sandwiches, chicken tenders and some Mac and cheese. Was told it will be ready in 20 mins. Get there 30 minutes later and the food isn't ready. My step daughter was waiting inside and no one even acknowledged her I had to go inside and ask where my food was they told me that they were really busy and it probably hadn't even been started yet I told the man it had been over 40 minutes and I called in advance. he said I can't even find your order. he was very rude and non-apologetic he finally found my order repeated it back to me and said yeah nobody's even started this. by this time it had been 50 minutes. It is one thing to be understaffed and not be able to function at an expected level but then being nasty and rude to the customer about it, not even an apology. My family and I used to love Jay's deli and order from them frequently the past few times the food has been horrible and they're always screwing up our order. After today I will never go back to Jays deli ever again. Myexperience was absolutely horrible! read more

I was lucky enough to win a gift card in the Hudson Valley Relief market to this amazing place. I catered a party for a gender reveal and Jays did all of the food plus the cupcakes with one having the inside filled with the pink color icing for the reveal. All of the food was raved about and the cupcakes were delicious. I never would have found this place on mg own but I am so glad i know about it now! Definitely will be using Jays for other events!!! Excellent service and delicious food!!! read more

Amazing service. Feels like home walking in. I have always loved coming here for things such a pizza, Stromboli, and even the famous Texas ranger sandwich. read more

I went in the other night for ice cream. I should have checked the time they close because I got there a few minutes before closing. I looked at the flavors through the glass for a few seconds then opened the door to the freezer to look at the flavors behind other flavors. It was open for maybe 15 seconds when the manager/owner yelled at me to hurry up and decide. It'd be rude even if I wasn't a customer. The people here are rude. read more

Jay's may be one of only two places in Highland Mills that are worth writing a review about. It's a grocery, sandwich shop, pizza joint, bakery, coffee shop, smoke shop, lottery outlet and more. It's the general store for the town. If you get here early, a group of older local men share hilarious recollections about times gone by. My guess is that everyone in town who can ambulated stops in here at least once a week. It's like the song Alice's Restaurant--"you can get any thing you want..." I got my birds here when it used to have a pet shop attached. read more

See all

everything you could want for lunch right here at Jays. My lunch spot when passing thru Highland mills

Deli is doing a nice job during Covid. When lines are long Someone comes to help out. Food still fine. Employees nice.

Today our senior center had an outstanding lunch from this deli. It was turkey, cooked to perfection, sweet potatoes and stuffing, carrots and mashed potatoes with gravy. Each portion was enough for three meals! To top it off pumpkin pie and apple pie. Also assorted cookies were on each table just in case you had any room for a sweet. This deli always comes thru in the most generous way. Thank you for going that extra mile and preparing each plate with a container for leftovers. Truly appreciated by all. read more

I think Jay's Deli is a wonderful place for cold cuts, meats, sandwiches, and a wonderful eating area for breakfast and lunch. I appreciate high quality items and Jays fits the bill My dad and I always came here for lunch and were always impressed. They even bring the food back to you while you wait in the back seating area (which is nice). They have a good stock of groceries and frozen items. Nothing is organic or local, but the food is damn good and worth your time to visit if you are in the area. I don't think there is such a thing as organic lunch meat.. is there? It doesn't matter cause Jay's still rocks... read more

Good stuff here. Really good stuff. If you're around the area, I would definitely pick up a Italian combo sandwich. Also, if you're planning an easy brunch, get the breakfast pizza (egg, cheese, ham, bacon and delicious). The hours are a little short, so be sure to look at their schedule! read more

Colleen the owner, goes above and beyond to make customers happy. It is so hard to find this nowadays. The man who answers the phones, goes out of his way to be accommodating . Custom Cakes are not only delicious, but beautifully decorated. Their baker(s) are very professional. read more

Bravo! Colleen ( The Owner) ,went above and beyond to ensure my pizza was just the way I like it. Tremendous customer service exceeded only by the taste and quality of the food. Jay's Deli is a wonderful asset to our community. We are lucky to have a place like Jays. read more

Delivery is a joke and my sandwich tasted like garbage. Thanks for nothing! The components of my sandwich were spilled all over the bag when it arrived and the edibility of the potatoes were questionable at best. read more

The best sandwiches I've ever had. My go to place when I visit my friend in Central Valley. This place makes the trip worth it. Definitely recommend. read more

I've eaten many different things from Jay's Catering menu and one is better than the next. The Italian hero and chicken cutlet/peppers/mix hero are amazing. Not only is the food great, but the employees are an amazing bunch. Looking forward to many more catered events. read more

Great sandwiches. We made a pit stop on our way from the outlets up to Vermont- and this placed popped up on our yelp. We were a bit skeptical since it is a mini-mart, but the sandwiches and hot food selection changed our mind. We split the steak sandwich and the tuna melt. Both were super tasty- but I would say the steak is more worth the $ since they were both $8. They have a good selection and would love to come back if we are in the area again. read more

Stopped into Jays deli on the way to Palaia Winery. I must say I have not ate a bacon egg and cheese sandwich like theirs in years!!!! Too bad it's too far from me. So best believe I will be stopping at Jays Deli when I go to the winery for a bacon and and cheese sandwich. So freakin good. The whole deli is sweet. They have everything you need if you're far from home. Pizza, cake orders, food snacks drinks etc. Even a place to sit and eat. Will be a returning customer for my sandwich. read more

Although this place has good food, sometimes the service isn't very good. Today it took them 1.5 hours (total between 2 trips, I had to go back when they got the order wrong); to get me 1 order of home fries, a short stack, 2 rolls, and a bacon-egg-cheese. Time to find another deli, the service here has really slipped in the past few years. read more

I went in for a bacon egg and cheese on a roll and the sandwich tasted like bread more than anything else...the workers always seem to be rude and have an attitude instead of being friendly and welcoming...highly disappointed with the service here. read more
