Old world schools the new world. Staff was so friendly and accommodating. We got the old world sub and pastrami/corned beef and swiss. Also onion rings. The sandwich comes with chips and pickle. Everything tasted fresh and home made. You can tell these people care about what they do. Spent about $35 plus tip. Worth the money. Eclectic music on: hip hop, dance, and pop. Dining room was clean and bright, casual and fun atmosphere. Will be back very soon. read more

Old school deli in Brunswick. Typical set up with tables and chairs that you see at many delis. The difference between this one and most is that the food here is excellent. My favorite sandwich here is the pastrami. Hot and tasty, this sandwich is served on griddle toasted rye with choice of chips. My favorite pastrami in Cleveland. The staff is friendly and the owner will engage you in conversation. Nice! read more

So many of these delis are disappearing and we almost respond and care to them not only do they give good service they employ people to help them I'm glad they're there I love their food read more

Great little local gem. Not gimmicky or fancy. It's very basic but clean inside. Muted Browns/ earth tones in true diner fashion. They serve up the BEST DAMN DELI food for miles. Sandwiches, gyros, wraps, burgers and dinners. All are the best quality. (Meats are neither greasy, nor dry) The portions are very healthy also. This seems to be a family operation or the staff is as close as family to one another. Nicest people, always welcoming and willing to answer questions or take custom orders even when they are busting ass to to keep up. (Very often) They're not understaffed. They are just that busy and still keep getting orders out in a timely manner. I've never had to wait long at all. read more

Excellent sausage! Great staff Busy! Good price for portion Definitely a Step above most "diners" read more

Love the food here. Everything is delicious. My favorite are the gyros. Great service, very friendly.

I got the Greek salad wrap. It was chuck full of feta, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, it was delicious. Not little or skimpy at all. The hummus was very good as well. Pitas were still warm when we got home. All tasted fantastic. I would try something else here no problem! Service as great and the gentleman was very nice and informative. You can eat in or you can take out. It's a nice family restaurant. I'd eat in next time. read more

Was looking for a good stop off the 71 and wanted a good sandwich. The Corned Beef was delicious. Plus the friendly owners let us try some delicious Gyro meat and Tzatziki sauce. Friendly people and great food. read more

The people are very nice, and the food is even better. The vibe is beautiful and very cozy.

The food was amazing, they have a large menu that does not disappoint. I went with my grandma who had a pastrami sandwich, she said it was the best pastrami she has had in a while. read more

Not kidding. One of the best gyros I've had in a very long time, first time customer today and I will absolutely be back!! Thank you!!

Hey this was a really great lunch. We found the place on Yelp and I was intrigued by the menu. I stopped in and ordered an Italian sandwich (the Pompeii) and a Reuben. The Reuben is one of the Best I've ever had- quality meat, nice and tangy kraut, and a classic bread. I made the delicious mistake of eating it in the car and it was so worth the mess I also took home some hummus, which was very good. I added a little lemon. Their website says 'with a smile' and that's so true. The guy who helped me was so kind and friendly. We chatted a little bit. I was like n awe of the menu- so many things I want to try! I saw they do catering, so I will keep them in mind for our next event. Can't wait to go back and try more delicious things! read more

Great food and people working there are friendly. I had the pastrami cornbeef and without a doubt it's the best in town. read more

Old World Deli - a hand holding a half eaten sandwich - Delis Near Me - Brunswick, Ohio

Delicious sandwiches, would highly recommend. They took a long time to come out though so maybe budget extra time.

Not just a sandwich! Wow! I had the Tuna melt; thick layer of savory tuna salad with melted cheese on perfectly toasted Italian bread. This place elevates the sandwich! It was delicious. I truly enjoyed every bite! My son had The Philadelphia; piles of mouth-wateringly delicious pastrami with slaw on perfectly toasted rye bread. Soooo tasty! We topped it off with Baklava. Deceptively simple facade in a strip of businesses housing some of the most delicious sandwiches I've ever eaten, and did I mention the outstanding hospitality. Everyone should try this place! read more

It was a great little shop- everything was well made. Large servings. We enjoyed every bite.

I get their gyro sandwich! Best around this area. Their menu has alot to offer. Give them a try. You won't be disappointed!

Food quality was darn good, but the staff seemed stressed out and in the weeds the whole time I was there. Maybe they were understaffed that day. It took about 25 minutes to get my Ruben sandwich around 11am (before lunch rush). Despite that, they were doing their best and it showed on every order I saw go out. I cannot recommend the potato chips, they were some kind of off-brand variety that I didn't enjoy. read more

The food was delicious,I got the veggie on a pita and my son got the corned beef and swiss and he loved it. It's small inside just about 6 tables and you order at the deli counter. Friendly staff read more

We stopped in there tonite at 627 3 min till they closed and they made our food and was so nice we even added more to it salad a frys still was super nice this was my wife's first time there and the gyro was great every thing great but for them to do it so close to closing that was above and beyond thanks again and we will be back again read more

Gyro was excellent. Broccoli Cheddar soup was okay and the salad not so great. We like supporting local business so I guess we'll just have to get Gyros Gyros are recommended! read more

Great selection of amazing deli sandwiches and food. I had the Cuban and it was great! Also the chicken tortilla soup was spicy but not too spicy. Excellent friendly service too. I will definitely be back. Very affordable for the quality of food !! read more

Best fried chicken sandwich ever. All the ingredients were fresh and homemade (they even make their own mayo). The owner was thoughtful and chatted with us at our table, going the extra mile without feeling pushy. Great, great, great. read more

This is my favorite DoorDash spot and I'm obsessed w their onion rings and cheeseburger! I've been ordering 3x a week I can't help it!! Awesome menu, pierogis are wonderful, so are the gyros and I love the fries too. My favorite spot for last 2 months . read more

The staff were all so amazingly friendly! We went with my two young children and they were quick to be accommodating and kind. And equally important the food was fantastic! read more

The food was delicious, and the service was amazing! I love to support family owned businesses, and these fine folks have been doing it for 25yrs now! Make sure to eat here. You won't regret it! read more

I had a turkey Reuben with fries instead of chips. There's not much in the way of take out by my office, so I usually have to drive in order to find anything decent. I tried on several occasions to call the location as the app they were using informed me that my order had not been approved. The doors are locked, and they place take out orders on a table outside the front door. Be mindful that if you change out fries for chips it's an extra $1.50 and the don't add it to the order. They asked me to pay it in cash. I was a bit taken aback by this, as I know that money is considered pretty dirty and in the age of a pandemic, I would think they would prefer electronic payments only. I was a bit confused by the customer service, online ordering app, and the lack of ability to communicate with the proprietor. The food however, is VERY good. I'll be back again, just more prepared. read more

This is the very best place for corned beef year-round!!! all of their food is amazing. I have used them many times for catering.

Opened Yelp last week on a whim and this deli was the first place recommended to me. I'm a sucker for a classic deli and this one being so close to my home I couldn't help but stop in for lunch. I was expecting a pretty basic affair, and Old World Deli WAY over delivered. The food was absolutely incredible. I had a corned beef on rye and it was out of this world. We also tried the dolmas which were perfect. Then one of the owners came from around the counter just to have us try a sample of their gyro meat...and if I wasn't so full already I may have honestly bought a gyro because the meat was so good. No exaggeration it was the best gyro meat I've ever had, and I've been eating gyros since before I could walk. I could write 1000 more words about how much I loved this place. My usage as a reviewer in the time I've used Yelp should be a pretty decent indicator of how legitimately great this place is. I would not have taken the time to write this review otherwise. It's one of the very few places I've been in recent memory where I sincerely felt like the money spent was worth it. If you haven't been, go. And if you have been, go again. I absolutely will be. read more

I had the corned beef and pastrami combination. Served warm. Was well portioned. Visually appealing. I ordered carry out placing order as a walk in. Wait time was reasonable. Service was efficient and very friendly. read more

Andy and his family have been serving up quality sandwiches for years! This is the go to place for a great corned beef sandwich.

The is a great deli all the way around! We ordered catering from here with delivery to make life easy and everyone said everything was delicious and to order from them again. This deli has all of your go to deli sandwhichs from turkey, pastrami, salami, roast beef and along with gyros. If you are looking for a go to deli in the area and one that delivers for catering this is your spot. read more

Best place in Brunswick! I go there every Friday and get the Reuben. It's amazing! If picking up it's a good idea to call ahead. Avoid the franchises and visit this locally owned gem! read more

Love this place! Our Christian brother Andy and his family run the business at 667 Pearl Rd Brunswick! It's an honest business , food was great , fresh and clean. Taste great of course! read more

Awesome owner and friendly attentive employees. 100% by far my favorite reuben. Corned beef is good, I usually get extra meat for a couple bucks which is totally worth it. They put love into everything they do up there. Everything I've ever got was good. They won't disappoint unless you go on a Sunday (and maybe monday?) Because they're closed. read more

I hate to admit that I often forget about this gem right in my backyard. I've been here many times and I have never been disappointed. The deli sandwiches are all outstanding and I don't think you can go wrong. The gyro is amazing! I hate the fact that I don't remember to eat here more often because that means there are gyros I am missing out on. I get the regular size gyro and it is perfectly sized to fill me up. Something I love about this place is all of the "extras." They have a ton of options: great fries, tasty jo-jos, sauerkraut balls, fried mushrooms....It reminds me of the café at the summer camp I went to as a kid. So many great things to choose from! Last thing: the staff. Food service can be challenging but these people are wonderful. They have always been so welcoming and friendly. It is a pleasure to walk in here and be greeted with smiles and eye contact. Ok, that is it! I AM going to start eating here more often and you should too. read more

This place is a great lunch spot for those who work in the area. The sandwiches are delicious and filling. I ordered a basic turkey and cheese and didn't have any qualms about my order. A few other coworkers had orders and they too raved about their meals! One con I would say that their sides are smaller portioned than other places and what you would expect. read more

From the outside and the inside you would be fooled (as I was) but holy cow...this place is a hidden gem of Brunswick! The menu has a vast variety to aid picky palates. The restaurant offers a small dining section (we chose to dine in). They mainly do Togo orders. This is a family owned place, and it feels like a mom and pops place. They make fresh food from scratch for a lot of their items. We started our meal off with a large order of sauerkraut balls with horseradish dipping sauce. I ordered the New Yorker for dinner. The corned beef is top notch in comparison to others. This is definitely a place to try if you are in town or looking for a place to grab food. read more
