    Tasted great!
    Teague W.

    My older sister and I were in town visiting our parents for the 4th of July and decided to check out The Galley for breakfast. We had heard great things from our family and friends but wanted to make sure the hype was real. IT WAS! We both enjoyed Bacon Egg and Cheese sandwiches and iced coffee. The staff was professional, helpful and efficient. They go above and beyond to accommodate the needs of the guest. You are able to customize your meal exactly to your preferences. The dining area overlooks the harbor and is a wonderful place to enjoy a meal. You're right on the water which is a nice change of pace compared to other local breakfast and lunch spots. The restaurant has turned what used to be an empty stretch of parking lot into a vibrant social hub. I would highly recommend The Galley when visiting Norwalk. The food, atmosphere and quality of the restaurant is hard to find elsewhere in the city.

    Amazing food, great quality ingredients and guests service above and beyond! ... ah, their rum punch is not to be missed.

    Went on a Saturday morning and was there at 7:30. Food was awesome. I got a Pursuit, which is sausage, egg and cheese on Sourdough toast. Been there 4-5 times and never been let down.

    Great food, wish they had an indoor seating for cooler days. Nice views of the harbor. Great place to take a walk also.

    The Galley at Norwalk Cove Marina is such a hidden gem in Fairfield County and one of my favorite spots to go in the summer. The Galley is outdoor seating only and has amazing breakfast and lunch sandwiches with beautiful water views of the Norwalk Harbor. Everything I've had here has been excellent. I usually do the Manresa sandwich which is essentially an Italian, and it's fantastic. Highly recommend checking out The Galley!

    Came on a Saturday afternoon. It is a little hidden in the parking lot by the beach. I got the Tavern and my fiancé got the Sherwood. The sandwiches were seriously unreal. It's a family business and we are looking to potentially move to the area, they were so nice and gave us tips on where to go explore. Definitely will be back next time in Norwalk to try some of the other sandwiches!

From the moment you walk in, you're treated like a regular even if it's your first time. The ingredients are always fresh, the portions are massive, and you can tell they actually care about the food they're serving. So far, I have not been disappointed with any of my orders. I always try to get something different but its so hard to choose because everything is just so good!!!

    I was at work and craving a breakfast sandwich, so I checked Yelp and found Dave and Charlie's…read moreHometown Deli. I decided to give it a shot, and I got greeted as soon as I walked in. The staff was super friendly, and I ordered a Bacon, Egg, and Cheese. It was made on a Brioche roll with a fried egg. Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan of the egg or the sandwich overall. It was okay, probably a three-star kind of thing. Next time I went back, I tried the Calise sandwich, which has chicken cutlet, broccoli rabe, roasted peppers, fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, and balsamic glaze. I asked for the broccoli rabe on the side because I know everyone makes it differently. I get that it can be bitter, but some places make it taste amazing without the bitterness, so I wanted it on the side. The sandwich was really good, so I'd give it four stars, especially since the breakfast one was just three in my book. Sometimes you gotta visit a place a couple of times to really get a feel for their food. I wasn't really a fan of the broccoli rabe--it was a bit too bitter for me. But the sandwich itself was tasty, with well-seasoned chicken and really fresh mozzarella. Not sure if they make the mozzarella in-house, but it's delicious. It tasted just like you'd expect from an authentic Italian deli. Very good. Third time I went, I tried the Mother Clucker, which has a chicken cutlet, Russian dressing, cheddar cheese, and bacon. I wanted to try it because I'd seen it being made during my last visit and it looked awesome. It took about ten minutes to get ready. When I opened it up, I realized it had melted cheddar, not sliced like I thought, but it was all good. The sandwich was tasty, but a bit over the top with the bacon and melted cheddar--almost too much. I think using sliced cheddar would bring everything together better. The melted cheese kinda takes away from it, in my opinion. The bacon was crispy even with the cheesy sauce on top, and the chicken was nicely seasoned. I definitely plan to come back and try the Chopped Italian Combo. The staff's always friendly and welcoming, and it's a solid spot if you're looking for breakfast, with plenty of breakfast platters and other menu items that might catch your eye.

It looks like any other sub shop however there are rules. So make sure you read the menu. There is a standard way of ordering - as in lingo. I was actually nervous when I was up to order because everyone ahead of me seemed to know exactly what to say? You have to call your order but the # and then say "mikes way" or list off the ingredients you want. Honestly the guy making my sub seemed very unhappy to be there and wasn't very kind. I ordered the half sub and it was more than enough. I wished I could have chosen a different bread because this role seemed just basic. But the fillings made up for it. Fresh cut meats and cheese, thin shredding lettuce and tomato then mayo. It was great in its simplicity. I'd say the price is reasonable for what you get. If you can, definitely give it a try!

The girl working did not say I'm sorry or apologise in fact she put blame on me. then instead of offering me a refund or my money back, she said I could place a second order on Uber Eats and order a cookie and then they will give me my sandwich. LOL you want me to place a PAID second order- pay taxes and fees and driver tip all because you rushed and didn't pack the bag. Listen mistakes happen and that's totally OK but if I call and you're gonna be rude about it, After, I just spent money on an item. I didn't get that's not cool.

(Visited 3/11) Ambiance [4/5]: Minimalist style design, it's nice, Theres also pretty lighting and a good amount of seating with an open bar as well. Food: Trix latte w/ whole milk (seasonal): [4/5] Tastes like a bowl of cereal from a cup. Topped with whipped cream it's really delicious! Tastes like a cup of childhood. Theres a good anount of cereal in the cup alongside the ice so it feels like you get a good amount of sips before the drink is done. Other than that it's still pretty good nonetheless. Sin-A-Bun: [5/5] This is very delicious, it's a perfect mix of sweet and savory. The smokiness from the bacon surprisingly compliments the cinnamon roll buns. Good concept and executed perfectly. If there were an option i'd choose that over having it on the side. Surprisingly I didn't notice it on the side on the sandwich until I was half way through. Still delicious though. Challah french toast [5/5] Tasty and sweet. You can't go wrong with french toast. I added strawberries, blueberries, bananas, and Nutella drizzle (each topping is $3 extra). It was worth the price it was delicious. It came with a side of butter which compliments the sweetness of the toast and some syrup. I didn't use much of the syrup but it was still delicious when I did decide to use it! I wouldn't order this because for delivery because its one of those things that taste so much better fresh in front of you rather than waiting to he dropped off. Service: [5/5] Fast and efficient service! The restaurant works as a team. One man sat me, The middle eastern girl with the long sleeve black shirt took my order and checked on me, and the white boy with the arm tattoos and pen between his ear checked on me at times, and cleaned my table while the girl was busy. It's great to see everyone helping each other and not letting anyone suffer. I Loved it! Overall Cafe social, is a great restaurant to stop by if you plan on going to the mall. Not only is it a 8 minute walk but you're also given a great meal and overall greater experience. I see myself coming back here if I'm ever in norwalk looking for a quick bite!
