Okay I've been coming here for a while now and I'm literally making it my mission to try the whole menu I've already had like half the sandwiches and they're always so good. My favorites right now are the Caesar salad sandwich and the deli club, but the tri-tip is sooo good too. Everything tastes fresh, they're fast, super friendly, and I've always had a good experience. You can order ahead too which makes it even easier. I love finding good local spots like this because if the food is good AND the customer service is good, I'm gonna keep coming back Definitely support local and give them a try. Now I just need to finish the rest of the menu lol. read more

Came for a weekday lunch. This place is put right in the middle of the industrial area of Hayward. They have a lovely space with lots of tables but most get their food to go. I got a meatball sandwich, one of their specials this week. It comes with a pickle and pepperoncini on the side. Sandwich was delicious and warm. Really good ratio of ingredients and everything was neatly packed without a mess. I thought it could be a bit small but it's a solid work day lunch without falling asleep. Total with a drink and a bag of chips I paid around $16. Staff was helpful and friendly! I'd definitely come back here if I'm in the area. read more

Pop's Deli & Grill - Meatloaf Sandwich with cheddar cheese - Delis Near Me - Hayward, California

I don't recommend this place because they lie to customers; I ordered a Philly, and they put hamburger meat in it instead of steak.

Best service, quality and variety. Amazing daily specials. Best kept secret in town. If you go once, you will be hooked for life, I know I am. Thanks Kevin you're a class act. read more

THE BEST DELI SAMMICH, YES SAMMICH EXPERIENCE IN THE BAY. i moved from the bay area and i miss Pop's - no one does it better than them, and their prices are cheap for the rip off that is the bay area.

Tasty! Absolutely yes from me, (whom shall be back)! I got a meatball sandwich and a la ensanada, it was incredibly fantastic. They also have the classic BA sub voucher thingy when you get 10 subs deal! Awesome atmosphere, friendly personable management, staff is terrific too. Nothing negative to say go check it out! read more

Cute sandwich shop with a diner-like atmosphere in the middle of the industrial business area. Lunch time is busy at Pop's but the service is still fairly quick. Order your sandwich from the counter and then pay at the register. They have a fairly large menu with decent prices, and substitutions requests are usually doable. I found the sandwiches a little small. read more

Pop's Deli & Grill - La Ensenada Sandwich - Delis Near Me - Hayward, California

I love this small shops in the middle of the business districts they never disappoint. Pop's was no different, they know how to make sandwiches! I've had two so far but I'm hoping to have a few more. When you come in you make a line to place your order and although long line their service was quick. Once I placed my sandwich order I waited in another line to pay. I ordered turkeycado and portofino. Turkeycado is definitely my favorite so far. They really know their portions. One request I would have is to write the orders down. I asked for no onions and still got red onions in the sandwich which was such a strong smell and taste. The portofino was good but I'll try fresh not oven roasted. Service was good for a deli and fast. read more

I wanted to update my review because this truly was one of my favorite delis and it was so nice to come in and have the owners remember me :) I ordered the La Ensenada cause it's one of my favorites and it was as good as I remember it, the big difference was the staff. Service with a smile and the wait wasn't unreasonable. I walked in and placed my order. I failed to take a picture but will do when I come back again. There is ample parking and their menu has a lot to choose from. Come in and support a local business, you won't be disappointed. read more

Tons of parking. Great service but it can get super busy sometimes especially during lunch hours so try to call in your orders ahead of time. Sandwiches are freshly made with freshly sliced meat and fresh vegetables everyday! They have a ton of varieties and you can customize your sandwiches of course. Soups are great too! Always super hot . Staff always greets with a smile and a "ill be right with you" if they are busy . So you are acknowledged every-time. THEY ALSO HAVE SPECIALS EVERYDAY. From meatloaf, pulled pork, tritip, Philly cheese steak, and ribs!!! The owner cooks everything to perfection and make sure his soups have seasonings and flavor before giving them out. HIGHLY RECOMMEND read more

So we decided to come eat in person after a hike and it was poppin' (no pun intended). The interior looked like it used to be a really cool diner of some sort. There is an non-operative bar and a pool table that doesn't seemed to be utilized since there's tables surrounding it. Well, the staff all seemed irritated and not too thrilled to be there. Maybe because it was lunch hour and they were busy. We ordered a Poorboy (as recommended by the staff) and a La Ensenada. The quality has gone downhill. There was no love put into the sandwich at all this time around. Maybe they changed up staff and ingredients, but the sandwiches were not doing it for me this time. read more

Pops is a staple in this area. Everyone I used to work with always tells me this is the best place to go to, next to Amy's. The place is a no frills deli, they have good food and good people. I can in early and the woman who helped me was hella nice, even though she was hella busy. I mean I can't be upset, just let her do her thing. I was in no rush. Onto the food, the pricing is way too good! The breakfast burrito and the sandwiches are worth al of it. It smacks immensely. Pops is a good place and I would like to sit and eat there. read more

I love Pop's Deli. I recommend the Ensenada, the jalapeno mayo sauce is amazing. That's all me and my coworker ever get. Once I had the Del Mar which was good. My Dad said the clam chowder was best he ever had, tied with the bread bowl one you get on Pier 39. My mom liked the soup and half sandwich lunch. The owners are hardworking and the customer service has always been great. read more

Best sandwich of my life to be honest... The owners were so down to earth and the sandwich was made with love. Already telling my friends and family about this place! read more

Okay where have I been?!?! This sandwich spot is amazing and hidden within a business park, sort of like a hidden gem! The price is good (I believe it was $6.95 for the sandwich I got) and the quality is amazing! I got the pepper cheese steak and it was delish! I was able to finish the entire sandwich by myself in one sitting. Would I come here again? Of course yes!!! I definitely want to try the many sandwich flavors they have! Definitely a good lunch spot! In addition to the sandwich, I got broccoli and cheddar soup which was a bit watery to my liking. The dessert bars are good if you want something sweet afterwards! read more

Okay best sandwich ever but you gotta do it a certain way. Hear me out.... It's kinda a portofino but not. -Sourdough sliced bread (double toasted) (if you don't get it toasted it'll be soggy) -deli Turkey - pesto -La Ensenada sauce -pickled jalapeños (for the extra spice because the la Ensenada sauce has a spice to it) -provolone cheese (melted) - finish with sprouts read more

Thank you Pop's Deli & Grill!! I was on the hunt for fair priced breakfast items for a morning company meeting (didn't want to go the tradition donut/bagel route) and I came across Pop's!! I think items are priced well for what you get, we got breakfast burritos & Denver breakfast muffins with either chicken, bacon or turkey sausage. Fan favorite was the burritos! Personally turkey sausage muffin was my favorite! either or you cant go wrong! Team at Pop's was very kind and informative when ordering and planning the pick up process. If your tired of donuts and bagels for breakfast, id recommend Pop's Deli & Grill! read more

Great spot for sandwiches, salads, and soups. We had the Oriental chicken salad, vegalone, taco salad, and nachos. The vegalone sandwich was perfect. The veggies were all crisp and fresh and cold and paired perfectly with a soft French roll and Italian dressing. The taco salad was a good size and served with salsa, no dressing required. The Oriental chicken salad and nachos (with queso) were both good. Service got a bit backed up, but when another worker returned, the line went fast. The value here is a definite plus. Food 5/5 Service 4/5 Value 5/5 read more

I've been wanting to try this lil mom & pop deli for awhile now. It's located on Huntwood and blends right in with all the grey business complexes. If you're planning to pick up your order, definitely call in instead of using the Grubhub feature on here. It'll save you about a dollar per sandwich. I guess they're pretty popular on Doordash too since everyone asked if I was there for Doordash upon arrival. I don't usually get veggie sandwiches, but the craving hit so I ordered two for myself and here we are. I got the Californian and Dorado- subbed the French roll for Dutch Crunch. Both were good, but I preferred the Dorado even though the bread was a bit hard. I love that each sandwich came with a pickle spear and 2-3 pepperoncinis. Note that on their website, it said "Pop's remains open for curbside pick-up!" However, I didn't see any signs for curbside pickup, nor didn't I get any instructions. So, don't be like me and assume you aren't getting out of your car so you go out in your house slippers. Wear shoes! They also had 1 table outside under a tent for outdoor diners. As for customer service, I encountered 2 employees. One was a nice Hispanic lady on her lunch break. I don't think she was on the clock but she greeted me anyway and directed me to the front counter. The other was an Indian lady that I assume was the same one I spoke to on the phone. She continued with her conversation while taking my order and had to repeat my order (2 sandwiches) 3x. I walked towards her and she just pointed to the top of the fridge saying, "Doordash." Oook... except I'm here for myself. She handed me the sandwiches and told me to bag it myself while she texted on her phone. She was also not wearing a mask, which was a huge turn off. Overall, it was just okay. Good value for the sandwiches. Maybe I'll try it again. Someday. read more

I've ordered Pop's two days in a row now so I guess a review is in order! I can't get enough of the sandwiches here. Prices are super affordable, the flavor combos are straight forward, and the ingredients are fresh (also love that they have sprouts...now if only they would add black olives, my weird sandwich flavor combo dreams would come true!). My favorite sandwich so far is the Gourmet. I have never found a sandwich shop that offers a cream cheese and ham style and I'm into it. They also have great veggie options (my fav is the Dorado). The only soup I've tried is clam chowder but I'm gonna have a hard time ordering anything else bc it's addicting. The ordering experience on DoorDash was really basic (didn't list out soup options or types of deli salad available), so if you're ordering online it's hard to know the full menu. But I was able to customize my sandwiches in the special requests section and they always made the requested changes. read more

Sandwiches sandwiches sandwiches!! Greatest of the bay area So many many many varieties My go to when i am hungry Sucks they do not open later than 4pm I got the filly cheese steak and it was phenomenal It is a Thursday special! Yummy yummy 100/100 I still am yet to try a breakfast burrito but the last time i came in the morning there was issues, i tried to call in and nobody picked up, online said they are open , so I decided to go in person and this older African American woman talking on the phone it seem as she was making a video or something , i asked her for a breakfast burrito she stared at me and said "we do not have eggs at the moment they are cooking would you like lunch instead" and i asked when the eggs would be available and she said "not sure probably tomorrow" which i thought was weird which i did not pay any mind to . I let her know that i would come back for lunch because my time was running short and she did not say a word to me just started slamming everything she was putting back and walked to the backroom and whoever she was on the phone with she told them "these customers don't know what the f**k they want girl" since my time was waisted i didn't have time to stay and chat so i left I came later that afternoon and the ladies upfront informed me that breakfast ends at 11am and they make there eggs on site!! I was baffled. But to each their own. I love the afternoon staff all of them are amazing. Cashier is nice, sandwich makers are wonderful, the owner is friendly to. Just not quite sure whats wrong with the AM staff 100/100 food 100/100 afternoon service 100/100 energy personal note : only come during the afternoons I come back everyday - every afternoon Recommend: filly cheese steak Poorboy La esencia Ribs on fridays read more

First and foremost i don't write reviews but i have felt the need to make a yelp account and leave one Food is delicious, it is sandwiches how can you go wrong. A ton of varieties you can chose from Vibes are great ! A lot of seating inside ! A lot of parking ! AFTERNOON STAFF IS A M A Z I N G !!!!! Super nice and professional! There is a girl with braids sometimes who makes my sandwiches WITH LOVE and she doesn't even know me. Wonderful! Me and my husband always hope we are next in line to get helped by her ! (P.s) not to sound offensive but it's the shorter latina one! Would have rate her a 5 star BUT. I have rated this a 2 star Because the couple of times i have made the mistake of going in there in the morning, there is a lady who is rude, not attentive, and super slow ! For the few times i have been in there she is on her phone sometimes with gloves!!!!!!!! She always have a attitude . I asked for a simple cold turkey sandwich just mayo and cheese and it was toasted and finished off with lettuce tomato and onion! When she made my sandwich it seem as if she was in a rush to leave because right after i paid she left to sit down where the customers sit and quickly went on her phone, nobody managing the front. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE COME DURING THE AFTERNOON!! YOUR SANDWICH WILL BE AS PROMISED AND THE CORRECT WAY. !!!!! read more
