Entrance
Delvia W.

I had been wanting to try this place for some time but didn't because there's no parking you can pull into easily. I finally decided to plan my visit. I looked up the reviews and their customer service wasn't high ranking so I was leery. I said to self, just give it a try they may have changed due to the constant bad reviews on their customer service. Covid-19 Precautions: Mask required. Social distance in force. Most workers had on mask and were using gloves. You are asked to wait in your car for a call when order is complete. Parking: Residential street. Store: front, Open & neat. Back: could have been more organized; food and other items were all over. I gather because they are busy. Wait time 45 minutes. Service: When I called an older gentleman answered. He was polite and made sure to repeat my order. Food: I ordered a corned beef special with cooper sharp and extra dressing. There wasn't much coleslaw on it. It was ok. I've tasted better. I also ordered an italian hoagie with swiss. My son said it was good. Overall my experience was good. Only thing I would like is a receipt. I didn't ask for one but it should be given.

Poor excuse for salmon Cheesesteak
Robert P.

Wow I can remember coming here years ago this was the best deli uptown, hands down. BBQ Chicken Club was everything! Oh where do I begin? Let's start with the extremely rude behavior from the Wife/Owner. Salmon Cheesesteak was garbage! Dry, no seasoning and no flavor, it lacked love. Order was incorrect as it was supposed to have house made tarter and they put Mayo and barely any of that. The charge $.75 for spinach (very small amount) and have the nerve to charge $.15 for a paper bag. I go back in to inform the rude lady working the counter and calmly informed her that the order was missing the tarter but had Mayo, she got so more rude and flustered, I gracefully said it's ok, no love lost. It was a lost cause and unfortunately this is a sinking ship!

This is not fresh at all. They had to have used old oil. I wouldn't feed this to a dog. The chicken is rock hard

This is what came via Uber eats. I am so disappointed because I ordered this for my toddler. This is not fresh at all. They had to have used old oil. I wouldn't feed this to a dog. I tasted a fry and it is rancid. The chicken is rock hard. I spent over $50 for just a hoagie, chicken tender platter & 2 juices.

Reuben

This is a good, local Mt airy/Germantown deli that's good for a nice sandwich at lunch. I got the Reuben and it wasn't the best but it was good for what is was.

a sandwich with coleslaw

Food has changed a lot and so has the prices. Prices went up and the food isn't even that good anymore. I recently had a Turkey hoagie which was full of the dressing with probably two thin sliced pieces of Turkey. I used to love the food here and was always recommending this place but my past few experiences have not been good. $12.00 for a hoagie that tasted more like a veggie hoagie with cheese.

I do not recommend using Mt airy deli due to the lack of customer service . I have been a long time customer of Mt airy deli since they opened in the 90's . I have shopped here since Day 1 when they opened . Today I arrive back in Philadelphia after being in New York and called in an order to Mt Airy Deli . I came in to pay for the order. I Get home and noticed that the order was incorrect and immediately called . I ordered a surf and turf cheesesteak yet I get home and open up salmon on a cheesesteak roll . I was then told that is what I ordered and that the person who took the order read it back to me . Clearly it is not what I ordered and never heard the mention of any salmon. I don't even eat salmon !!! There for the order is incorrect . I would not have been calling with an issue on the order. Yet the argument continued with telling me that is what I ordered . So i was then told that In order for me to get another sandwich I would now need to pay for another one . Please note that the one I picked up was $17.99 and I was overcharged in the first place as I did not even order SALMON . Additionally i ordered other food . So now I am here with something I can not even eat . Not good at all. So with that being said, basic customer service has been lost at this deli . I will not be patronizing this restaurant any longer in Mt airy and do not advise anyone looking for good customer experience to do so as well !!

I recently stopped here for lunch while in the area. I noticed all of the pictures and I thought the food looked amazing. I can say that the owner was working and was really friendly. I could tell he must have a lot of repeat business because of his personality. The crispy buffalo chicken hoagie was really good. The rolls were excellent and fresh. The rest of the food looked amazing. Next time I am in the area I will certainly go back and try something else.

Corned Beef Special Sandwich
Max H.

I had the corned beef special sandwich which was really good but had me completely passed out afterwards. Honestly that's mostly on my end because I slept so little and you need to catch up on rest, but at the same times I I think the sandwich was really good

Just knocking off one star because for a $5.75 latte, they only filled the glass halfway up. I also got one of their famous pistachio sticky bun to take to go!

This was my first time actually trying it and it definitely lived up to the hype of the Yelp reviews. My wrap had chicken, hummus, lettuce, and feta, and it was so delicious. My chicken was very good, very tender and seasoned well. It also had a great creamy hummus to tie all the other ingredients together. The feta added just enough saltiness to balance out the rest of the flavors. All of the ingredients were very fresh, and my wrap was extremely soft, yet still maintained its form completely as I ate. I also ordered a Nutella hot chocolate. It was delicious! It was my fist time having a Nutella hot Chocolate. I usually just get a normal hot chocolate. The pita chips served as an additional side item with this sandwich and proved to be quite enjoyable. The pita chips had a good crunch and were able to pair with the wrap very well. I ended up eating all of the pita chips! It was a great lunch and I enjoyed my wrap! I would likely order from Café Square One again in the future, especially, if that wrap is still on their menu!

The strawberry French toast is topped with roasted strawberries, cream cheese icing, and sliced almonds. It was super filling with generous portions and just the right balance of sweetness. 2. The crab omelet with grilled onions, local mushrooms, and béarnaise sauce. A unique combination that oddly worked really well together. 3. The classic two-egg breakfast with crispy potatoes and a biscuit. Simple and a great traditional option. Overall, Urban Farmer is a great place to grab breakfast in Philly, whether you're visiting or local.
