A nice find for us, everytime we have been by the place (night time) they have been closed. Today was our day, three of us ate and all enjoyed our selections. A Reuben sanwich, cuban sanwich, springhill turkey and bacon sandwich. All of us enjoyed our sandwich. I was apprehensive about the cuban sandwich and Bob said many people like it, I told him my roots are in Miami Florida the heart of little Havana. He said the bread would not be exact as the bread is hard to get up here. He was correct, the bread was tasty though and the sandwich was tasty. The place was just getting started for the day but pretty busy at Noon on Saturday and a little on the quiet side. Everyone here was very friendly, Bob even came by to see how the cuban sanwich tasted. A great service touch point. We will be back. read more

This is a order at the counter pick up your drink and number and they bring your order to the table. I had the Cosmopolitan and the pasta salad has a dressing that is unique, the poppyseed on the fruit is my favorite but the chicken salad today I have to say - I have had better elsewhere. My friend had the egg salad and right away I noticed it was runny - too much mayo or something. My friend said it was so so and he would not order again. The vibe in the restaurant is like a pickup and go more than a sit down. read more

I love me a good grilled cheese sandwich and the Big kid grilled cheese sandwich did not disappoint. It had 3 types of cheeses, provolone, Swiss, and cheddar with I think pickled red onions, fresh cut tomatoes and a pesto vinaigrette and boy oh boy this was a treat for my tastebuds. I wish they had tomato soup to go with it but then I probably would have died from food heaven. Try this sandwich you won't be disappointed. I also ordered a few more sandwiches. The French dip no cheese or onions for my daughter and the meat tasted like they just pulled it out the oven and not processed at all, she had the broccoli cheddar soup instead of chips and she drank it literally picked up the cup and drank it.... So it's easy to assume she liked it! For the hubby- The Shirley smoked turkey and provolone cheese with a homemade honey mustard. He had never had a homemade honey mustard so it caught his tastebuds off guard but he said it was different but still good. He is not a big mustard fan unless it's plain yellow mustard but he said he would eat the sandwich again. He ordered the fruit as his side and it was all very fresh and surprisingly a great portion. Second daughter- smokie Josie she loved the sandwich but could only finish half of it. She had no mayo on the sandwich and told me it still was juicy which is good no one wants a plain dry sandwich. We never had Mississippi mud pie bites so we bought two, I don't know how to explain the taste but it hits the chocolate craving but it's not sweet yet satisfying. Get the pineapple dole cup!!! No regrets! Staff- the woman at the register was so kind and welcoming, she made me feel like she was glad I came in. She was very attentive and patient. The woman who brought out my Togo order was so kind she always smiled at me when passing and truly represented great hospitality, did I mention they were extremely busy when I went, they were not flustered they stayed calm and joyful! Definitely going back! P.s my mom's name is Mary Ann so another nostalgic moment!!! read more

We had our lunch delivered via Doordash. I've never been to this restaurant but I am floored by how delicious everything was. My hot pastrami sandwich was still hot when it was delivered and my boyfriends BLT was the best he ever had! The pasta salad was so delicious, I love the addition of both green and black olives! The fruit bowl was awesome and there was what I assumed a fruit poppyseed dip that was so delicious! I've never had anything like that but we couldn't stop eating it. read more

Our group of four stopped and had a delicious lunch while we were visiting Fairhope today. The Chicken Salad on Croissant was a big hit. As was the Turkey Cranberry sandwich (did I detect a hint of horseradish?; so interesting). We didn't imbibe in dessert, but the Mud Pie 'bites' looked yummy! The flavored iced teas were great. read more

Another delicious meal at Mary Ann's! I got the chicken salad croissant with the cream of asparagus soup. The sandwich needed a little salt and pepper but other than that it was all delicious. My husband got the pimiento cheese and bacon sandwich with the side salad with cilantro dressing. The dressing was sweet with a slight cilantro taste, very good. The sandwich was nicely toasted. My mother in law got the salad trio- chicken salad, pasta salad and fruit salad. It was a hearty portion and she enjoyed it all. And for dessert; the Mississippi mud bites- sooo good! read more

Very poor food quality and poor customer service. The cafe is also very noisy and echos. I do not recommend this Mary Ann's Deli.

Was brought here by a local and we loved it!! Super cute area to sit and people watch in town. I loved the menu and appreciated a variety in the kids menu. I had a salad trio, chicken salad, pasta and pimento cheese. Everything was so good and perfect for the hot day! Service was quick and the ladies were so nice and helpful! They even let me get more peach tea even after they cleaned up. Will definitely go back! The only downside was it was super hot inside. I wish they had a few fans or something because our kids were getting a little too hot. read more

I am writing about a recent customer service incident. I ordered a half sandwich to go and when I got home, found out there was an error. I called the restaurant to just get a refund but the owner personally delivered a fixed whole sandwich, chips and complimentary dessert. Customer service like that has me coming back. read more

This used to be my fav deli in fairhope but I'm not sure if they are still in same location(last time I ate there was 2000 maybe) but their salads and sandwichs WERE at the top of my list for good grab n go wayyyy back when when they were in Bancroft. Now- the location on section street I just went to isn't the same at all! And the food I bought was aweful. I bought two sandwichs(chicken salad and the mabien)- the mabien was just -ok... the chix salad was ok if you like picking bones out of your mouth every bite! I also ordered a pint of shrimp salad and potato salad... both were terrible! Potato was bland and the shrimp salad was terrible and not cooked... I guess if u like raw shrimp it wd be ok- but even the rest of the I grediaents were aweful- no old bay in it!! Who doesn't use old bay in shrimp salad!?? I pd over $75 for this lunch and needless to say I'll never do that again! What's happened to all the old greats of fairhope?? Bens is aweful , Maryann's, do t know about Sandra's yet... will try them next time! read more

I thought the restaurant was OK. I got the pimento and cheese on wheat bread with bacon. For me, the Praveena cheese was too wet. Meaning that had way too much mayonnaise. Came with chips and a pickle. Not sure I would try it again. read more

What's not to love about home style delicious deli food in a food court. The communal atmosphere adds to the enjoyment of delicious soups, salad, and of course amazing sandwiches. I'm so glad to see another healthy food option in town. I was surprised to learn that Mary Ann's deli has been i. The community for decades. I'm just late to the party. Regardless I'm glad I finally caught on. Delicious! And nice people too. read more

I'm back on the eat beat! I'll tell you this little gem has been a favorite of ours for many years but I just love the windmill market location. You can get your items from the fridge or order it how you want it. Specializing in sandwiches as most delis do the Reuben is my favorite! I always swap the homemade chips for their amazing pasta salad. A pickle on the side makes this meal even better. When I'm not going for a sandwich the chef salad is always my other choice. I was a little upset today as my son loved their corn dogs and we were told "new menu, no corn dogs" ohhh no, he opted for a hot dog and never even touched it. Be sure, absolutely sure you give their mud bites a try! They are just the right size of sweetness for under a buck! read more

There is a pandemic! As a physician I was disturbed to see that workers in kitchen were not wearing masks. This is sort of basic protection for customers. Please rethink your protocols. People are getting sick and dying. Please think about doing your part to prevent this. We all are in this together!!! read more

As always...the best! I had out of town guest that truly enjoyed the salads. Great service & fresh food. I do hope the remodel will provide improved atmosphere. The Courtyard salad is my selection and never fails. read more

My past experience (Today) was terrible. I called in a to go at 1:00PM and they told me it would be about 15-20mins. I get there around 1:25PM and I sit in there and pay for it and everything and they say it will be right out. i waited until 2:18PM to get my food. This was a $40 TO GO order that was suppose to be done in 20mins. I also wasn't the only one waiting for their food their were others going up to the register angry to take their food and leave. At one point some of the servers got on their phones. This was really rude because you have people who have been waiting almost and hour for their food and haven't got it yet. I loved mary ann's but i am for sure never going back. Thank You read more

Yum, good food, good selection...came here instead of sweet olive. Somehow sweet olive lost its appeal so I wandered back to Mary Anns. Glad I did, ordered the Mediterranean salad, turkey and cranberry on marbled rye and pastrami sandwich. Everything was fresh, customer service was friendly...look for this place, it's in the back...well worth the walk. read more

Cute place, workers kind of unprofessional big tee shirts and tiny shorts.. within a building with 3 different restaurants weird vibe wish they were listed together read more

Yum Yum. I do not know why this place falls off of my radar, except for perhaps I end up buying a lot of cr@p in the vendor space on my way out. Have my eye on those driftwood side tables for the patio.... The food is A+++. The sides are very diverse and make up for the price. Today I had the quiche (perfect) with very fresh fruit salad. My Mother had the grilled chicken sandwich with the broccoli salad. Since I am a slow eater I missed the chance to sample heres, but the plate was clean. I also love the fact that the place is very "green". All table clean-up is sorted for recycling. There is nice space for outdoor dining. The space is a bit too industrial and there are drafts. It is NOT a cheap lunch choice, but worth a couple of extra dollars for good, very good, simple food. read more

Mary Ann's is the go to place for casual but good lunch fare in Fairhope. The staff is terrific - they understand that you are there to grab a bite and they make it as easy as possible. Men and women look for different things when choosing a restaurant. I'm a guy that likes a hearty lunch. Fairhope has a lot of lunch places that are fine but serve what I call girl-food. You know, salad nicoise, perfect dainty sandwiches, soup of the day.... Mary Ann's is that too but knows how to keep a guy happy. They have great tea, daily quiche and sandwich specials, and a menu broad enough to make me happy. And its in the fabulous Windmill Market. Live music during lunch several days a week, check your listings... And Moe's BBQ is under the same roof. Talk about boy food.... While its not a deli in the New York tradition (sigh) it is a fine place to dine and keep both men and women happy. read more

I had lunch here today and thought this was a cute place! We sat in the courtyard (which was very nice) and everything we ordered was good. I had the quiche (could have had a nicer crust- there wasn't one) and fruit salad. The fruit was ripe, fresh, and was a wide variety (banana, strawberry, pineapple, cantaloupe, honeydew, grapes). Hubby had the muffaletta and it was fantabulous. He scarfed it down so fast I barely got a few bites. His parents also enjoyed their sandwiches (I can't remember what they got). Word of warning- we got there at about 1pm on a Saturday and had no problem getting a table and we got our food quickly. By the time we were getting ready to leave (about 1:30- 1:45) there was a line through the courtyard and no available tables. They sell beer and wine (yay!) and we were very pleased with the whole experience. read more

Ordered a grilled pimento cheese and bacon sandwich and this is what I got. It's basically a mayonnaise sandwhich. Disgusting. I couldn't even eat it. I don't know why anyone would think that would taste good. Very disappointed. And this isn't the first time this has happened. GROSS read more

12/27/12 After trying with no luck to get into McSlurry's Pub (closed) and Panini Pete's (packed), I realized that this place existed. From the outside it is hard to tell. It's cold out so no one is sitting outside on the patio. Walk in--different story. It is a great, fast-moving deli. I loved the white bean chicken chili soup that my husband ordered. I chose a greek salad with chips on the side, it too, was delicious and most importantly every bite was FRESH. Service was friendly. You go in, get on line and order. Simple and easy. Grab a seat (we sat by the window) and enjoy the decor. They bring the food out to you when it's ready. The decor is really interesting from the quotes on the art work on the wall (which made us chuckle), to the really cool "big ass fan" (that is really what it was called and it was BIG!) on the ceiling. Be sure not to get confused by the menu of another dining establishment advertising on their cash registers. It's weird. Must be a town thing. Prices were right, food was good and tasty. Cute "deli". Free refills on drinks (you help yourself) and you'll want them because they fill your cup with ice. Tons of ice! Will definitely be going back to try other items on the menu. read more

Delicious! I am so happy we finally tried this place! I just can't believe it took us so long!! We tried the RTC 3 and the Shirley sandwich both were so tasty! We also had to see what the mudpie bites were about, and they were delicious! Definitely a great deli with such a cute atmosphere! I know where to get my sandwich fix from here out! read more

Great sandwiches and friendly service. A consistent favorite.

Really nice courtyard. I had a ruben and my friend had red beans and rice. Both just passable. Took forever to arrive and was not worth the cost. read more

Consistently delicious food and good service. As a local, I am very familiar with the place - never had a bad meal. Great salads (The caesar is amazing) and awesome sandwiches. read more

Fabulous food and service. The selection and variety is amazing. The quality of the meat, breads and cheeses are great. The friendly staff is very accommodating. I love the outside tables. It's always clean and neat. I love going for lunch. read more

For a nice, very casual lunch spot in downtown Fairhope, Mary Ann's can't be beat. The counter where you order is towards the back of the Westside Market. After you order, sit down at one of the many tables and someone will bring you your basket. I went twice this weekend and had the chicken salad sandwich and the blackened fish poboy. Both were exceptionally good and I highly recommend them. Their salads also look really good. My girlfriend said Regina's salad was really tasty. One downside is that there is very little A/C and it can get hot late in the day, but they say they are working on it. For a super casual deli-counter style lunch spot in Fairhope - this is it. read more

Its just not a trip home if I dont make it to Mary Ann's for lunch at some point. The sweet tea is perfection - the salad plate is a classic with any three of your choice (egg, potato, chicken, tuna, pasta, fruit) - but try any of the sandwiches too, and then you have to save room for the Mississippi mud cake - so sweet it will literally make your teeth ache but in a good way. I've never had a bad meal here, from salads to sandwiches to the quiche of the day. The poppyseed dressing for the fruit salad is delicious too if you're in the mood for something sweet but not too bad for you. Its quintessential Faih-hope and if you dont see someone in linen or some monogrammed item then you're probably in the wrong place. Perfect place to take a friend before/after some downtown shopping! read more

They ruined the grilled pimento cheese with too much mayo! Disappointing.

My favorite place for lunch! The Cosmopolitan with shrimp salad, pimento cheese, and fruit is delicious! I do wish they'd bring back the original seafood salad with crab meat in it as well as shrimp. One of my favorite places! read more

Love the chicken pecan salad... This spot has a lively atmosphere. It consistently has good service and great food!

Our favorite lunch spot in Fairhope! They have gorgeous sandwiches and luscious salads. The French Dip and chicken salad sandwich are my favorites. They have super yummy deserts also. We try something different in the menu each time and we loved them all. read more

Both sandwiches we had were delicious. Pimento cheese and the fish sandwich tasted fresh and homemade. They split our bowl of soup into two cups and brought the food to the table quickly and efficiently. The only downside was paying $30 for our meal... Just a little on the pricey side for me for lunch. read more

Great food, nice use of flavors in their sandwiches. Moderately priced, service can be slow when they are busy, however their quality of food makes up for that. read more

My husband and I really like Mary Ann's sandwiches -- have been there twice so far and had the Italian Hero and the RTC III (smoked ham, bacon and jack cheese with homemade honey mustard on grilled sourdough) with pickle and chips. We enjoyed eating at the picnic tables outside while listening to live music and checking out the shops in the Windmill Market. We look forward to trying their salads and many of their other sandwiches -- I think this will be one of our downtown favorites for lunch and would definitely recommend. read more

I love this quaint eating place in Fairhope. They have really great, freshly made food, the prices are very reasonable and the atmosphere is casual and quaint. They have outside eating as well and parking is on the street. read more

Very nice casual lunch/sandwich shop. My wife and I both had "make your own" sandwiches, and they were great. I asked for extra meat and cheese, and there was no additional charge. The crushed ice for the drinks was another nice touch. I'd definitely recommend this place if you're in the mood for sandwiches and a simple dining experience. read more
