I had a bagel with lox and cream cheese and other elements. It was one of the most delicious things I have ever tasted. Wow!

The food was great. But the low rating is because of the chef/guy running the place. Complete asshole, who chose to berate an employee for 10 minutes in front of the whole restaurant and rest of the staff. While waiting for the food (took a while to come out but, again, was very good), we had to hear this guy lay into an employee without any decency or regard for the rest of the restaurant. No attempt to go to an "Employees Only" or outside area. The whole time he was audibly pissed with everyone working there and made it well known. If we go again, we will get something to-go so we can limit our exposure to his toxic ego. Absolutely unprofessional and rather embarrassing. He needs to do better or get out of the business. read more

Friendly greeting, prompt service, I had a great Cuban sandwich, casual vibe. Located in the heart of Sheperdstown.

A big friendly help when we walked in - and that just starts the great experience. Our server, Lili was awesome and the food was so yummy. I'll be back for the peppered pastrami and my son was crazy about the smoked salmon sandwich. And to top it off they are truly dog friendly. read more

Happened to come across this deli on the way out of town. Cute restaurant with plenty of seating. I am so glad we stopped. I ordered the avocado toast and the beekeeper tea and my husband ordered the pastrami sandwich and lemonade. Everything was absolutely delicious and perfect. The service was exceptional and if I am ever back in this area I will definitely be stopping by. read more

MJ's is a great deli cafe in downtown . We had lunch but it also serves breakfast and brunch. It is casual in atmosphere and the staff are friendly. The delicious deli sandwiches are fresh made and the coffee good. read more

This little gem of a deli opened in August 2022, but I just discovered it today. They get some of their bread from the locally respected Bolivar Bakery and grinder/hoagie/sub rolls from a good Italian bakery in VA. All the produce and meat was fresh, high quality stuff. I had their turkey sandwich, which was outstanding. The coffee was okay, but not great. Nice wooden floors & brightly colored walls in a well-ventilated space makes for a great ambiance. Service was friendly, quick, & efficient. I will be back soon. read more

I think I could easily round this to a 4.5, but four seems more appropriate than five, so here we are. We ordered two kids grilled cheeses, the grinder, and the turkey sandwich, and all were tasty, but just missing that one thing that would take it over the top. The iced matcha, and the orange cream smoothies were both good but again nothing that made you say I absolutely have to return. The bread in the grilled cheese was phenomenal, but the cheese seemed just OK, and there was no pulling of the cheese so it never hit that masterful cheese excellence. The servers were extremely nice, and not only checked on us continuously, but also make sure that we were comfortable with our meals, and that one particular sandwich that we had requested to be heated was indeed heated. The restaurant gives off a cute country kitchen vibe, I think they were using fiesta Ware, so the theme is all aligned, again Just missing those little touches that would take the food over the top. Even the chips, and recognizing it's a large lift, it's important to note that a house made chip tastes so different from a chip that comes out of a bag, and the chip came out of the bag and still didn't taste extremely fresh, But all in all they were so kind. So if you are looking for a deli, it's not a bad option. read more

Wow what a find on German street shepherdstown. The food is fantastic, I had the smoked salmon sandwich and chicken veggie soup.

MJ's is a fantastic option for breakfast or lunch. My boyfriend and I stopped by early and we were hoping to get some lunch to go. The workers made it happen even though it was still a bit early. They were so friendly and accommodating, really great people. We got our food to go, but they have a great amount of tables inside for a cozy dining experience. I went for the brie and ham sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. Great bread, quality, ham, melted cheese, and I believe it was a fig jam spread. Yummm. It was perfect and paired with chips, delectable. My boyfriend really enjoyed his pastrami sandwich too. It was piled high with meat. This is a great eatery, if I lived in town I could see myself coming here very often. There's a great food scene in this part of town! read more

Really excellent soup and sandwiches. We had the Grinder and the Pepper Pastrami sandwiches. They were both truly outstanding. Very simple ingredients, but absolutely perfect balance - especially the grinder. Also had the mushroom bisque. Really awesome. Everyone was very nice and service was very responsive. They also do coffees and teas. read more

This place is DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!! They cross contaminated my tomato soup and potato chips. As I ordered my food to go, one of the workers licked mixed my soup and then licked the spoon. He then proceeded to put the contaminated spoon back into my soup. Another instance he scooped the chips onto my plate without wearing gloves. read more

Visiting the area for the first time and stopped by here for breakfast. By far THE best avocado toast I have ever had ! This was not your average avocado on toast. But it was more than that...the owner made it an experience. Friendly and kind. It's SO worth the stop, even if you're only looking for coffee (which was also fabulous BTW)! read more

Good service. Fresh delishish food. Tomato bisque was yummo. And had grilled cheese and veggie sandwich on Bolivar Bread whole wheat.

The food here was amazing! We had the bagel with lox which was flavorful and filling. The Cardinal sandwich seems like a strange combination to put together, but it works! The lattes and hot chocolate were rich and delicious as well. If you love supporting small business, eat here. read more

Excellent breakfast sandwich and coffee. Friendly staff. My friend and I came here on vacation and we were both impressed. Food was like something your mom would make for you-- not overdone like restaurants typically are with their food, just simple and delicious. Fresh ingredients! I got the cardinal sandwich and my friend got the muesli. I'm actually still sitting in MJ's as I type this. Highly recommend! read more

Yep still really good. Got a grinder and green smoothie to go. Great spot - definitely recommend for breakfast or lunch.

Delicious!! We had order our food to go and the service was really friendly and patience with us while we decided what we wanted. We had order the Ham and Brie Sandwich and the Sheptown Turkey. Both sandwiches were amazing!!! It did not take long for them to make so the wait wasn't to long. Definitely recommend this place if you want a delicious sandwich. I promise they won't disappoint. read more

Great atmosphere! The staff is attentive and courteous. The Brie and ham sandwich was delicious. The lavender lemonade was delightful. If you are looking for delicious food this is the place to go! read more

Wife and I decided to give this place a try for lunch. We ordered 2 sandwiches, neither of which included any cooked ingredients. The staff was extremely flustered due to it being unusually busy (according to them). Oddly it really wasn't that busy. My wife ordered the ham & Brie sandwich and I ordered the Grinder. No fries, just chips. As I write this, it's been 50 minutes and no sandwiches. We were just asked what we ordered. These sandwiches are no different than something you might get at Jersey Mike's. It's lunch meat! We like to support local businesses but it will probably be quite some time before we come back. By the way, my wife's sandwich had a thin slice of ham with Brie for $13! read more

Really nice little place with excellent breakfast sandwiches and coffee. The owner is super nice and appreciated us being there. The "Cardinal" breakfast sandwich was a revelation - a beautiful combination of salty and sweet... carmelized onion, egg, bacon, cheese, and maple syrup drizzle on cinnamon raisin toast. Trust me... it's delicious. Highly recommended if you want something somewhere between the diner vibe of Betty's and the bakery vibe of the Shepherdstown Bakery. read more

Absolutely amazing. Almost too pretty to eat. Better than New York City. Will come back weekly. read more

My husband and I were looking for a quick bite on the way out of town, and we found MJ's! They had a wide array of drinks and the sandwiches we ordered were fantastic (I got the curry chicken and my husband got the turkey, bacon). Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a solid meal and friendly service! read more

I had lunch recently at MJ's and it was truly outstanding! A gem of a place in Shepherdstown, WV. I had the Smoked Salmon BLT and it was perfection. The menu is varied and everything sounds delicious. I can't wait to return. Melissa, who sat us at our table, was particularly kind. As we were new to the area, she told us a bit about Shepherdstown and was completely delightful. Jordan, the chef, was behind the counter and welcomed people as they entered as he continued to make sandwiches, cook, and do all those "chef" things. Highly recommmend this charming place and will be going back soon! Keep doing what you do! read more

We had a great breakfast at MJ's. Food was great and service was very friendly. I had the Morty and my wife had the Nonna. Everything, especially the eggs, tasted very fresh and were well prepared. The best thing for us was listening to the Chef very patiently training and teaching very new employees. A place with good food and service that also has a positive environment is a place we'll recommend to everyone! read more

Great deli sandwiches and atmosphere; very family oriented. An awesome, friendly welcome upon entering with a genuine smile set the tone for an awesome time, as a family. My granddaughters each got free desserts and enjoyed them! We much appreciated our visit and will definitely be returning! read more

Really good food and great gluten-free options. The only reason this didn't get a five star was because it seems to always take forever for them to make a sandwich, even when no one else is in the store. So when I have time, I will always choose to eat here ... if in a hurry this is not the place for you. read more

Fantastic breakfast spot in Shepherdstown. I've been saying for years what is missing in Shepherdstown is a cute local breakfast/bagel shop, and this is that and then some. My husband and I each got a smoothie, which both were fresh and delicious. Love that they have milk alternative options for smoothies AND cream cheese. I'm lactose sensitive, but find it rare to find a place that caters to that in more ways than just soy or no cheese. I had the lox bagel with the cashew cream cheese and it was so good! The capers were a nice touch and the presentation was beautiful! We'll definitely be back! read more

Service was really slow and WTF is the 2.5% service charge added to the check? Just adjust your prices! Too many other restaurants to choose from. read more

If I lived nearby, I would eat here everyday. But alas, I do not. The food was delicious. Best breakfast sandwiches we have ever had. Definitely will return. read more

Great food, coffee, and service! They are so nice and make everyone feel welcome. The best place in Shepherdstown!

I ordered the grilled cheese and tomato soup and the flavor of the soup was perfection! Everything about this place, the food, the people, the restaurant. Super family friendly if you have littles! They changed the channel of the tv for my kids and I hadn't even mentioned it. Service was amazing, everyone was just so friendly and I'd recommend this place 1000x over! Can't wait to go again! read more

The staff is absolutely amazing and personable. We had made it there for their soft opening and the food was delicious. Zero complaints and full of flavor! Can't wait to go back! read more

This place easily just became my new favorite spot in Shepherdstown. Hands down, *THE BEST* bagel & lox I've ever had. Great food, great people, great place. read more

Delightful food and friendly service. I had the smoked salmon BLT and loved the combination of flavors. The staff and owner were very friendly and we enjoyed our lunch. The Pom Berry smoothie was well balanced and not too tart. The mint cherry limeade was the right amount of tart to go with a good sandwich. If we pass through town again we'll be back for sure. read more
