New York Corner Deli was our breakfast place when we stayed at Topsail Beach in the summer of 2022,…read moreand at Surf City in the summer of 2025. Conveniently located in the center of Topsail Island, it was a 15-minute drive from our 2022 Airbnb stay. With our stay at Saltwater Suites in 2025, the drive was less than 5 minutes. With four mornings between the two stays, we dined in at NY Corner Deli four times. It had everything we wanted. My son and I are sticklers for routine. In every visit to NY Corner Deli, we ordered the same thing: 2 scrambled eggs with toast & potatoes for me, and pancakes for him. Orders were placed at the counter. Then we went upstairs to the dining area and waited for the orders to be served. There were no issues with the order, food or service in the four visits. In both 2022 visits, I had coffee; in both 2025 visits, I had Mountain Dew. Refills are free for both coffee and soda. My order tasted better than a similar one at Tick Tock Diner in NYC. It was great value for money. I always felt that I ate enough to last me through lunch. There was no reason to try anything different. Unlike Tick Tock Diner, NY Corner Deli did not have any TVs in the dining area. We go to the beach to get away from the world. TVs keeps us connected to the world and the negativity that comes with it. Furthermore, there weren't many people in the dining area whenever we were here. I had only seen up to two other tables that were occupied. If you like a decent breakfast and a quiet atmosphere, NY Corner Deli is the place to be. I'll be back the next time I'm in the Topsail / Surf City area.

I can totally understand on why but my visit today felt like it didn't match. Just everything felt weak; both quality and quantity. Service has always been a real hit or miss too. You either get okay service or they just don't care, whether on the phone or in person. It used to be a really great place to go to for food but now just feels below average. It's a place I can only really go to every once in a while because of prices. I wish it was a place I could frequent more often.

I ordered the chicken parmesan sub sandwich, which was good but it seemed mostly bread. The chicken pieces were small and also breaded. Too much breading for me. The red sauce was excellent. DH had the sausage and pepper sub, which he really enjoyed. We had a choice of a size ,so we both ordered the macaroni salad. Not my favorite, as it was a little too sweet. They sell meats, cheese, cured meats, olives, canned goods, various pastas, sweets, etc. Having read the reviews here, I may try the Reuben sandwich next time we are in the area.

Sfoiatella pastry is to die for its very authentic freshly made crispy. They do put powdered sugar on it so if you pre-order for pick up on another day, they will do it without the sugar. I'm not a big fan of the egg and cheese sandwiches. I'll be honest I think it's just me finding what the right cheese mix is or maybe it's the role because it's very like a Kaiser roll but very fluffy. Maybe I have to have that scooped out. The eggs just don't do it for me and I can't put finger on it! They made great deli sandwiches though for my friends and I boat trip!

Grilled cheese was a let down, as well as both the sides. My turkey specialty on an everything bagel was good, I really enjoyed it. The husband gave the ham, egg, and cheese a 4/5 and the little gave the pastry a 10. Negatives: staff doesn't clean the tables, every one was dirty so we had to clean up one ourselves. The place as a whole needs a deep clean. Electrical pipes have a good amount of caked on dust accumulated on it.
