“I had to go over to Mayton Humpstumper's place to fix his wife's Wigglewhooper because she revved it up to high and burned out the thruster bearings! It's an easy fix as long as its been sanitized, and to make sure I called ahead and asked Mayton to put it through the decontamination chamber again! This gave me plenty of time to stop at the Maitland Market Café & Deli! The sandwiches there are Amazing! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Coming here for 10+years . Really happy they survived Covid. Nice to see familiar faces. The son is consistently kind,patient hard working! Always keeping this running for/with Mom and Dad. They must be proud. Thank you for all the great meals made with care!:)“

“10/10 highly recommend! Great service, very clean place, sandwich was packed and delicious. I had The Godfather and wow!! Definitely will be coming back again“

“Stopped here for an iced coffee with oatmilk and vanilla and it was very good. I also have had a sandwich from here before which are reasonably priced for the area and I think provide a decent amount of food for a lunch choice. The ordering system is a little odd with the papers but it adds a nice feel to it too.“

“My old pal Limney Gilbert got kicked in the mouth by one of Bucktoothed Mary's horses a month ago, and he's had his mouth wired shut since then. This morning they cut the wires! He asked me to bring him a ham sandwich and chips from the Joaquin Deli because he's been drinking all his meals from a straw, and he's ready to chew! It's my first time at the Joaquin Deli and I'll tell you what...it's clean, the ingredients are fresh as can be and the prices are right where they should be! The workers put the customers first, and not because the boss told them too, they do it as if they owned the place! Very refreshing in today's world! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Great place for a fresh cheeseburger!“

“The breakfast burrito is sooooo legit!!I read about it in the Chronicle and had to try it. It is tasty, not greasy, generous AND their little cups of red sauce bring it to perfection.A breakfast burrito and an Arizona iced tea by the water may bring you peace, and remind you why is it we live in the Bay Area ☺️

Vegetarian options: You can customize your order to have a vegan burrito ?“

“What a fantastic place! Sandwiches are freshly made, coffee is made to order by the owner himself, the ladies making the sandwiches are so nice and hardworking. I love to have my lunch there. Beside sandwiches they offer a variety of salads, snacks and healthy sodas. Prices are very reasonable. The service is superb!“

“I came all the way down to the Hayward Plextron Auditorium for a special showing of what is called the Blue Grand Tornanado that was picked up in the vicinity of Area 51 back in 1961 but I really wanted to see the Metellurgical Analysis of the materials, because none of the alloys used in its composition are from this planet. Then I'm going straight to the Winton Deli for just about the best sandwich in the bay area! The Winton Deli is always a 5 star experience! ☆☆☆☆☆“

“The staff here are so nice. They let me get a breakfast burrito right when they ended breakfast at 11. But also, it’s one of the best Philly cheesesteaks I’ve ever had - and I don’t even like Philly cheese. Their hamburgers are so solid too. My only critique is wishing they were open on the weekends but hey, everyone deserves a break I guess.“

“The most tender brisket I may have had anywhere. 🥰🥰“

“Sweet old school joint with sandwiches, chicken soup, specials and sweets.First time for me, got the Teriyaki chicken special with rice and salad for $9.Food is fresh and tasty, the lady at the counter is very nice, a patron highly recommended the brownies, I may get them next time!“

“Great food, fresh, organic, tasty. Reasonable prices. Friendly, helpful staff.“

“everything is delicious!!1“

“The person at the front was incredibly nice. I got to try their food through TooGoodToEat but I will definitely be back to try other things on their menu. The pesto pasta had great flavor and the grilled chicken was still juicy. The spring roll is a must try!“

“It was yesterday morning when my daughter asked me where I wanted to go for breakfast. After naming a few places, my daughter asked if I was interested in going to Fourth Street in Berkeley. I replied that that was a fabulous idea. As soon as we arrived on Fourth Street, we were thrilled to find a parking space a few steps from Oceanview To Go.

The place was packed. My daughter immediately registered us. It was going to be about a 20-minute wait. Twenty minutes later, the server approached and asked us if we would like to be seated at the counter or at a booth, in which case there would be an additional 10-minute wait. We, of course, opted to be seated at the counter, and that turned out to be an amazing experience because while we were waiting for our food to be prepared, we had a full view of the kitchen area and watched the entire scene of the execution from beginning to end of the diner chefs in action in preparing food for a full house of hungry customers, and for the servers to double-check the order before picking up the plates to deliver them to the customers in the booths.

While being entertained and taking photos, our server brought us our food. My daughter ordered the omelet with a side order of beans, and I ordered the pasilla-chicken sandwich. My daughter was a happy camper with her order, and so was I with mine.

There was an interesting dish that the chef prepared, of which I wasn't able to take a photo, unfortunately. We were puzzled by what the dish was; it had the circumference of a whole pie or cake. Perhaps on our next visit, we might order it and take a photo of it if my daughter's friends join us for lunch since it would be too huge for two people to consume it.

À bientöt mais Amis!“

“Affordable and delicious! If theres anything I can recommend it’s the chicken pesto sandwich on Dutch crunch. Their sandwiches are big, so unhinge your jaw maybe before you go in for a bite.Staff and service is friendly, nothing out of the ordinary. Counter service, know what you want before you step up.“

“Hayward has always been a pass through town for me, that is until Brosco Bill and his little stab Coco de Avantè told me about Pick-A-Deli.
They claimed it's the best deli in the bay area! Well....That's a pretty tall statement, so I left my little hamlet of Napa and made the trek to Hayward to see for myself. When I get a request to visit a new deli I always order the same thing, a simple ham sandwich, and leave the rest up to the maker. I got my sando, and it was perfectly prepared, an even distribution of meat, perfect amounts of mayo and the dijon was well balanced, the sliced sourdough was a great accompaniment as were the chips and a crisp kosher pickle.
Is Pick-A-Deli the best deli in the bay area...No, Is it in the top 10, ...Yes!

“My old pal Pernod Leer called me as I was coming into Oaktown and asked me to stop at the Honey Baked Ham Store and pick up his ham...you know since you're coming over anyway.
Well, I made a couple of quick lane changes into a new direction and was there in just a few minutes, and let me tell you something...that store smells just like grandma's house on Christmas night, it was Amazing!
20 minutes later I was up on the top of Broadway Terrace slicing into the most Amazing ham I've ever had..it was truly Spectacular! ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Best roast turkey sandwich.....and the fresh sourdough rolls are to die for!“

“I don't know how many, but there are at least two Kelly's Delis in the East Bay that are located by Home Depots, so whenever I go to Home Depot I check them out.They have a variety of burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches and mexican food.I really enjoy their breakfast burritos which are made with hashbrowns, eggs, rice and choice of meat.They're decently priced and their team turns around orders relatively quick.“
