This spot is small and cozy, with limited seating, but their sandwiches are absolutely delicious and generously sized! You might even feel like taking them to-go because they're so big and stuffed. This time, I tried the roast beef sandwich -- it was super tasty and flavorful. Personally, I love my sandwiches warmed, so if I had known it would be served cold, I would've asked for it to be heated. It also came with chips, which was a nice touch. You can tell this place is well-loved and popular , the service is fast compared to the crowd, and there's a lovely outdoor seating area that's perfect for nice weather. It's located right next to the University of Michigan, making it a great lunch stop between classes or after campus events. I'd definitely come back to try other sandwiches next time! read more

We got two sandwiches to share since we all weren't hungry. We liked at they offered to bring more trays since they knew we were sharing and that each try came with half a pickle. The sandwiches were quite tasty. The curly fries were also yummy and nicely seasoned! read more

It's a 3. Not untasty. Not what I'd call a delight though. I could get this corned beef at a grocery store deli. Real deli corned beef is messy. It's unctuous. It's not this flat thin slice uniform bullshit. It has texture. It can crumble. This ain't that. It made me sad. It did not taste fresh made in store sliced to order deli food. The pumpernickel bread was good. The slaw was rustic and choppy and worked. The melty cheese was nice.The pickle was nice and sour. The curly fries were OK. I can't get past the corned beef. I will never order it again. read more

Good sandwiches, fast. Have enjoyed the "one on one" with turkey, cheese, green pepper, and on challah. Not far from a parking garage, and paid street parking, but being downtown and right by the diag, parking is not free nor easy when it is hopping downtown- I will avoid pickup on busy game days in the future :) Limited review since I have eaten there twice. read more

The food service, quality and value was excellent!! The service was on point. Worth every penny. These sandwiches are made your way and absolutely delicious. Love that there more are non-pork protein options than the typical deli. read more

There is truly no better sandwich spot in Ann Arbor than Maize N Blue. I visit often from Colorado because my daughter lives here and I never miss a stop or two at this place. The gluten free bread is better than any I have ever had and the sandwiches are spectacular. The sandwiches make Zingerman's look like a Subway sandwich. It is also family owned and I love watching the brothers, cousins, etc working together. If you are in A2, go now. Absolutely delicous. I rarely write reviews. I aways get the Jennifer! read more

Back again and got the Maize and Blue Awning this time at the recommendation of a friend who raved about the Honeycup mustard used in the sandwich. Hafta agree and say both the mustard and the entire sandwich was pretty darn tasty. Mind you nothing fancy, but half a sandwich was a hearty meal for me (though perhaps just right for a college student). Crisp toasted bread, a fair amount of sandwich fixins plus a dill pickle for $14. As usual service was friendly and pretty quick, I've never waited more than 10 minutes for the sandwich to be ready, either for take away or dine-in. Being graduation weekend in May, we just beat the rush on Saturday around 12 noon when we got there bc right afterwards we saw plenty of grads in caps and gowns come by and a steady line of about 5-6 small groups formed. All the seats inside and out were taken since it was a warm day. I feel like other than days with specific events (like football games) it doesn't usually ever get that crowded. read more

The first time I tried Maize & Blue, I ordered take out and got the pastrami and egg, aka #18, aka where's Bo. I enjoyed it so much that I haven't tried anything else there. I would live to have a more well rounded review, but I just don't want to order anything else. The menu is big and separates sandwiches by protein. They have fast service, but a small interior. All of the ingredients are delicious and thoughtful. The green peppers are fresh. The challah bread perfectly toasted. I really have nothing to complain about. read more

3.7/5 Super cool spot, menu drawn on whiteboards, small intimate setting, pictures of old Michigan legends on the walls... really neat. I went with soup and chips... my friend snagged a "Jennifer's Dream"... great sandwich but be careful.. the Dijon mustard has a kick!! Too much for my likening, but to each their own. I'm trying the Georgia Reuben (#31) next time! read more

wanted to try a sandwich place in ann arbor and saw that maize n blue was rated comparably to zingerman's but more affordable. inside is a bit small but has indoor seating. menu on the wall boasts over 85 sandwich, wraps, salads, etc. // #20. amy's renovation ($14.50) // we wanted a reuben sandwich and decided on #20. pastrami, turkey, havarti cheese, colby cheese, coleslaw, grilled sourdough rye. sandwich was tasty. everything in the sandwich was good but perhaps could be better if there was more sauce that tied everything together because some parts were on the drier side. i would say it's an average portion -- other reubens i've had contain more meat. all in all, a good sandwich spot. seems to popular among umich students. next time i'd try the sherry's chicken cutlet because it seems to be the specialty and something different. read more

Came here for lunch and got the #82 chicken club and #29 Jennifer's dream. Both sandwiches were delicious and filling. The bread was perfectly toasted and so buttery. There was a good amount of meat without being too overwhelming. We went during lunch rush and had to wait about 30 mins for our order to be ready. read more

Simply the best hot mustard and pastrami sandwich I have had in at least 10 years. Great rye bread, huge sized. Tender pastrami without any grizzle or fat. The restaurant is a basic deli, clean and well lighted. The owner was very nice and friendly. read more

Great sandwiches. Large sized sandwiches. Very filling, good price overall. Ann Arbor favorite

I've heard of this place for years but never actually tried it until recently. I was in the mood for a sandwich and was in the area so I decided that day would be the day I finally tried it. I placed an order online so it'd be ready by the time I arrived. I ended up going with Sherry's Chicken Cutlet and it did not disappoint. It tasted fresh and flavorful. There was no one inside when I got in there and my sandwich was ready. They do have places to sit down inside but maybe when I return, I'll eat inside. I could definitely see myself going back and working my way through the menu. read more

Can't beat the size of these deli sammies! Never a disappointment. Simple old school deli with many many choices.

Great sandwiches The corned beef and pastrami were perfect My partner got the lox and bagel Great names to different sandwiches read more

Great food but I will never go back here after the service my friends and I received. We ordered on snackpass ahead of time to make sure we wouldn't have to wait too long. When we got there, the deli was pretty empty except for a couple people. On three different occasions, my friends and I walked up to the counter to ask if our food was ready, as it indicated on the app that it was. It also had been about 35-40 minutes in a fairly empty restaurant so we were hoping it would be done. The girl who worked at the front laughed the first time I asked, saying she'd let me know when it was ready. Finally, after the long waiting period, the girl said one of our friends names. Turns out, everyone else's food had been ready (including mine) for about 15 minutes just sitting there. This girl didn't apologize and FURTHERMORE got my order wrong. I got a tuna sandwich which was honestly pretty good relative to what I've had in Ann Arbor, but the heinous customer service my friends and I experienced guarantees I'll never step foot in this establishment again. read more

This was my #1 stop for breakfast sandwiches when I went to school in A2. Food is so good I even arranged to have my fraternity meals delivered from them to feed our house. Regulars and local celebs have signed the walls there so you may find the Fab 5 and other names up there from years past, including yours truly. read more

My friends and I love Maize and Blue- I have become a frequent customer. They are so nice, the atmosphere is a classic college eatery, and the sandwiches are absolutely delicious. My current favorites are the Madonna's Top Hits and chicken Caesar salad as a wrap. Does anyone have new recommendations I try? read more

Really great sandwiches! I got the chicken cutlet sandwich and it was super good. Very quick and easy - highly recommend!

I absolutely love love love Maize N Blue Deli. The staff is amazing-- they really care about their customers and are super interactive and cheerful. The sandwiches are out of this world. This is the kind of place where you have half a sandwich for lunch and maybe munch on the other half after dinner. The Sherry's chicken cutlet sandwich is to die for, but my personal fave is the "Coaches Reuben." There's a perfect ratio of tangy sauerkraut and salty corned beef, and bread is toasted to a perfection. Can't recommend this place enough read more

Another A2 staple. Pretty solid sandwiches and other eats. Might be busy especially on game day (B)

Fast friendly service, pretty packed indoors but only 1/2 person line. Food out within 5 minutes. Ordered #56 Turkey,lettuce,tomato,onion,pickle. Fresh ingredients, bread was warm for a cold sandwich which was a nice bonus. Huge selection but doesn't take away from the quality of the food. Great! read more

We stopped here for lunch before we headed to Detroit. This place was very empty. We were literally the only ones eating. It is nicely decorated it Michigan memorabilia. Adds a nice local touch to the deli. Our food came out very quick. I ordered the triple play Reuben and it was very tasty. It had corned beef and pastrami, Swiss & jarlsberg cheese, Russian dressing and sauerkraut and a sourdough rye. All delicious ingredients creating this very delicious sandwich. I wouldn't mind coming here again. The only thing that was a let down was their price. $12 for a sandwich from a deli is just way overpriced. Poor Michigan students that pay this amount on a regular bases. I will definitely think twice about that price before I even consider returning. read more

Our go-to spot for delicious sandwiches when in Ann Arbor. We've been going here for 20+ years and it never ceases to impress! They have a huge variety of mostly-sports-themed choices, like "Where's Bo?" and "Mo's Mess". Many of them are served on bread that has been slightly buttered and grilled for crispy-goodness. The meat is very good, almost NY-deli good, and the service is always friendly. There isn't a lot of seating, so if it's crowded, that can be a problem. Our personal favorites are the Grand Daddy's and Amy's Renovation (we both love reuben-style sandwiches). Prices are little high, but it's a huge sandwich with a lot of meat, so $10-$12 isn't horrible. You can easily split one or get the "reduces meat" option so you can actually finish it. And they are all served with an enormous (and crisp) 1/2 dill pickle slice. Positives: Great NYC-deli style sandwiches, Michigane sports themed (Go Blue!), friendly service, excellent reubens! Negatives: A bit pricey, not a lot of seating (maybe 6-8 tables). read more
