21 Best Delis near Encinitas

“First visit to HBH today. Very impressive operation
Of course the ham is spectacular. Full flavored, easy to slice and serve and is always a holiday favorite. But I’ve never been to a company store like this!!!
I just showed up and was only in the store for about 10 minutes. I left with an 8 lb ham for $103.

I do have a few tips to offer. You can call ahead and prepay over the phone or use their website which will speed up your pickup process. There were three registers handling prepaid orders and only one handling the walk up orders like me.
Another great tip is go to Costco first and purchase two $50 gift cards for only $80 !!
This will save you 20% which is a great value.
Oh and be certain to spend some time browsing in the store at all their wonderful items like sauces, mustard, rolls and various delectable items.
They also have prepared food to go so you can pick up a meal for lunch or dinner . Enjoy“

“Great food, great selection, great prices, great specials, and GREAT PEOPLE! Visit. Often.“

“If you’re looking for a local gem, this woman-owned café is it! Elissa, the owner, has created a French-inspired menu that’s both comforting and delicious. From fresh sandwiches and crisp salads to daily specials and baked goods, everything here is made with so much care and flavor. The empanadas are an absolute must-try (so good!).

What I love most is the variety—whether you’re in the mood for a deli-style favorite or something with a French twist, Elissa always has something incredible on the menu. It’s the perfect spot for a quick lunch, a casual meeting, or just treating yourself to something fresh and homemade. If you live or work in the area, you definitely need to stop by—you’ll leave already planning your next visit.“

“We stopped by Judy’s Deli before heading to Legoland and were so glad we did. The food was excellent—fresh, flavorful, and made with care. What really stood out, though, was how kind and welcoming everyone was. You can tell this place is run by people who genuinely care about their customers. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and want a great meal to take into the park!“

“One of the best Delis in all of San Diego county. Delicious food, and great service. The only negative is the lame hours of operation; a lot of times I'll be craving their food around the evening and they're already closed. It's worth the wait though.“

“Great neighborhood Deli for a quick sandwich that brings a taste of NYC to this corner of San Diego business parks. Had the Micky Mantle with some fruit salad and what seems like home made cookies. Lots of space outside or in to hang with friends at lunch or get takeout.“

“My girlfriend and I LOVE this place! Discovered it by accident two years ago when I moved to Carlsbad… I live an hour and a half north now but still a mandatory stop for us anytime we are in the area! Everyone working there is so friendly and you can’t beat the service!“

“Great casual spot for an excellent sandwich and an excellent Belgian beer! It's a small, cozy place that has a good layout and balance between decor, TVs, seating, and open space. Perfect option for a laid back lunch or no-fuss happy hour. The guys behind the bar are welcoming, and the sandwich-meister is top notch!“

“Such a nice local deli that offers guaranteed fresh drinks and food each day! I had the Açai Bowl and I have never tasted one before that had the perfect blend for my dish! You have to, HAVE TO stop by and add this spot to your favorite locations so you can enjoy everything that they have to offer!!!“

“Great food, reasonable prices 🤗“

“Campus Café is a fantastic food stop for breakfast or lunch. Today I did their Korean barbecue that was their special for Thursday. So yummy. Has just the right amount of fight and balanced out nicely with the salad. You won’t be disappointed coming here.“

“This place is great. I have been coming here for lunch for five years. Family owned. Jimmy and his wife take great care of you. I love the sandwiches, so delicious. Too many great ones to list out. Very fresh ingredients, just like you made it at home. Great hole-in-the wall spot in Carlsbad.

Parking: Easy onsite parking lot.

Wheelchair accessibility: Nice ramp for wheel chairs.“

“Growing up in Hampstead, spending a lot of time in Golders Green and Finchley it was funny to hear how the Deli got its name. Rugeleh was excellent. My wife and mother-in-law who was over from Hendon liked those plus their corned beef.“

“The service was a bit slow - both ordering at the counter and then waiting for tables to be cleared. The food service was fast, though. The sandwiches (Tiki Chick was one, don’t remember the other) were fresh and very good, but the bread was not. I would recommend improving the bread to match the interior. Highly recommend overall!“

“Great food great staff!!!“

“The Amex Hilton card quarterly $60 benefit was almost expired for this quarter. I found NY Garden Deli on a Reddit sub that showed the credit working at their location.

GPS helped us to easily find the small deli along the side of the Hilton Garden Inn Del Mar. Just like the other reviews all say…the ladies in the deli are friendly and helpful.

We ordered Philly Steak and Italian subs. The sandwiches took about ten minutes to be freshly prepared. Both sandwiches were delicious…I might have like the Philly beat but the Italian was very good also.

I will return again when in town and maybe try the tasty sounding Ahi Tuna Salad next time. Breakfast items,soft drinks, beer and wine also avaliable as well as some desserts and sweets.

Tip: Quarterly Amex Hilton card $60
Credit is a good way to get some tasty subs.

Remember the deli closes at 1pm.“

“The only thing wrong was..... I looked at my sand and told the clerk that doesn't look like Roast beef he said it was. I get home and opened it up and shure enough I had a Turkey sandwich which was the Ladies in front of me. I'll give it another shot but make sure you Check your order before you go.“

“A grill come small convenience store all rolled into one. Went there for some odd groceries and found that the grill was pretty good as well. There was nothing bad their. Again nothing fancy but certainly good value for money and could not complain about any of the dishes I ordered. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.“

“I come here almost every single day and the staff are wonderful they are the nicest people I know in this area and make every drink I ask for. The boba is fresh and amazing which goes perfect with all of there drinks they also have sandwiches which are fresh an awesome it’s the best boba place I’ve probably ever been to. Don’t listen to any bad reviews this place is amazing and I love it“

“yall need to try their dynamite sub on a french roll extra cheese extra lettuce for a nice refreshing crunch with every bite! diced up banana peppers inside and *peperchini on the side with a pepperedpickle on the side omg just writing this review makes my mouth watery“

“Only had lunch here two times but it was absolutely the best deli meal I have had and I am originally from Manhattan. The food is the best, generous portions, the staff is great, prices are good for today’s times and for what you get. We will be back!!!❤️“
