Roger's Deli & Donuts

Everything is solid or great except the coffee. I’m fine with average coffee but this gets left out to long sometimes. It might be ok during AM hours but skip in the PM.

Great breakfast sandwiches. Jalapeño bagel, extra Jalapeños w pepperjack, avocado, egg n sausage.

My favorite sandwich here: turkey club on a wheat roll with smoked Gouda cheese. Everything on it, add onions and pickles.

Awesome spot that deserves all the love it gets! Amazing donuts, wide variety of good coffee, and tons of breakfast options in addition to sandwiches.

I recently visited Roger's Deli & Donuts twice, and overall, it’s a great spot for deli lovers. The deli sandwiches are truly standout – packed with fresh ingredients, full of flavor, and crafted with care. Each bite was satisfying and left me wanting more. Whether you’re craving a classic or something unique, they’ve got a good selection to choose from.

As for the donuts, they were decent but didn’t quite reach the level of the sandwiches. They were fresh and enjoyable but felt fairly standard, without any distinct flavor or texture that set them apart from other donut shops.

If you’re looking for a solid deli experience, Roger's Deli & Donuts is definitely worth a visit. For the donuts, they’re good for a quick sweet fix but might not be the highlight of your trip.

Roger's Deli & Donuts
295 E Middlefield Rd
Mountain View, CA 94043

I went there for a mid-afternoon takeout on a Sunday. It's on the corner of Middlefield and Whisman, with the best entry from Whisman Rd. There is parking around the building and more in the adjacent shopping plaza area. I ordered a Reuben sandwich and apple fritter at the main order counter, paid (less than a Jackson) and given a numbered receipt and waited for my number to be called. Service was helpful and was asked if I wanted the pineapple included, which I did. There is not a lot of inside seating and all the chairs were upside down on the tables, so not available when I was there. There is seating outside the place with some gas heaters around the tables.

My order was ready shortly and I took it home for the unveiling. The Reuben had a good quantity of corned beef on kraut and melted Swiss cheese on light Rye. The sandwich was moist but not messy and with minimal pineapple taste. It was very good. The apple fritter was not overly sweet with some apple bits, again very good.

This appears to be mainly a take and go place and since they open at 5 AM, would be a good place for an early AM breakfast. It's an okay value and I'd repeat.

The food is great, and the staff is incredibly friendly and efficient. Also, whenever I bring doughnuts into work from this place, people go crazy.

What more could you want?

Deli was the only non fast food place in the area open 6am. Had a memorable time meeting up with a good friend. We sat around one of their fire pits on the patio eating sausage cheese breakfast croissants and drinking coffee. This is a gem of a place.

On the fence with this, got a turkey & cranberry with Dutch crunch bread (their Dutch crunch bread is like an imitation version, not good). And it did not have a lot of meat & filling for the price.

The bagels looked really good, but I would’ve liked it to be more toasted with the cheese totally melted. Also, don’t order the jalapeño unless you want to burn your lips off. I know it’s jalapeño, but typically the seeds are removed and the heat is subtle. I was in pain trying to eat my sandwich lol and could only get through half.

The donuts were a nice size, but all of them had a bit of a strange aftertaste. We ordered cake, buttermilk, old fashioned and yeast and all had the same strange taste. Maybe the oil needed to be changed? They’re too expensive to not be great, so this was a bummer.

Like many others have said, the ordering process is chaotic. I ordered online, but I wasn’t sure where to pick up when I arrived. Instructions via signage or text (when you order online) would be helpful.

The outdoor patio is really nice and there’s lots of room with good shade. We enjoyed sitting outside and out of the sun. They also have nice fire pits, so you don’t get too chilly in the shade.

Sandwiches were delicious. But it was my first time and the signage was not very clear (or non-existent) regarding the ordering process. While interacting with the owner (?) I was made to feel as though I was in the wrong for not being 100% accurate with the names of the items when ordering, or knowing where to stand while ordering (sandwiches vs donuts) and finally where to go/stand to pay my bill (a 3rd location down the line). I guess I made the mistake of assuming I could give my entire order and pay at the same place. He had an unfriendly/impatient attitude with me because of this. The donut attendant and cashier were perfectly pleasant. I may have arrived just after a morning rush or on an off day but felt like I was being treated like an idiot (maybe I am one? Should I still be treated as such?). I don't believe I'll be returning, even though I may (?) understand the process now.
