17 Best Delis near Vista

“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!“

“Hello Deli was a hole in the wall that was hidden in the business park that I worked in.

I used to visit this deli fairly often as I loved their sandwiches. The best parts of the deli were the prices, portion sizes and the flavor. These sandwiches are stacked!

The atmosphere of the place though is not the best as it is showing its age. It is supposed to be reminiscent of New York with many of the classic images of the city there.

If you are simply going for the food then you will be hooked up. If you want the ambience then this is not the best option.

It is best as a place for those that are on lunch that need a hefty fix for a good value.“

“It was my first time coming here and they did not disappoint! The lady was really nice and welcoming! The food is DELICIOUS! The agua fresca of honey dew is perfect ! Not too sweet, but w good flavor ! I will definitely come again ! Also , when I got home the food (quesadilla and croissant )was still hot/warm which was perfect I didn’t have to reheat it!“

“Great food great staff!!!“

“Delicious vegetarian sandwich, has the farm fresh touch, homemade chimichurri was excellent. Great atmosphere, lots of fun beverages. I met the owner there, I could see how she takes pride in what she does and the community. I prefer to support owner-run small businesses rather than chains. And it’s easy to do when they make such good food!

Vegetarian options: Great veggie options for sandwich and beverages.“

“They are all amazing people“

“I ordered the Tuna Melt and it was yummy! I love how evenly they cooked the sandwich and it’s not overly oily for my taste. The tuna tastes very fresh and I can tell the whole sandwich was made with love.

There is a bit of a wait but trust me it’s worth it!“

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

“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.“

“We have driven passed this place for 20 years and never stopped because the location is kinda weird and the outside doesn’t look very appealing.
Well we are KICKING OURSELVES for not stopping sooner!!! We finally decided to give it a try and it is DELICIOUS! Everything is so fresh and tasty. All the staff is also very friendly and welcoming.
Not much sitting inside though, it’s kinda small and the place was packed both times we stopped by.
It’s definitely worth the crowd though. Delicious food, friendly staff and very reasonably priced.“

“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.“

“A perfect example of a delicious owner operator run little deli.

Fresh, delicious ingredients, very low prices, and the most delicious sandwiches made with love.

She even gave my son two free cookies!

Great atmosphere, highly recommend eating outside and playing cornhole under the sun shades.

And don't expect to come during your lunch hour, but if you go at 2:00 p.m. you won't have to wait very long for a sandwich.“

“Shining light in the new world of boring chains. Fresh pastries that are divine and different every day. The menu doesn’t do justice to the choices. Also the atmosphere is like being in a French cafe with lots of nice private seating indoors and out.“

“We used to say it felt like homemade food here. I have been eating here for almost a decade. I work down the street and all my coworkers eat or have eaten here. Prices are perfect not overpriced at all. They have range, burgers, sandwiches, chili, salads. I enjoy the cheeseburgers, chicken salad is one of a kind! They let you order a la crate and customize your food however you want. They make breakfast plates or burgers! They ladies up front are extremely nice, they remember your name. They take orders by phone and they never get it wrong. Only downside is they close by 2-2:30? I get off work at 3:30 and sometimes I wish I can take my wife some of the food here. Great lunch spot for all the people who work in this company heavy area.“

“It's a hidden gem. I have driven by multiple times but I never knew this place existed. I was referred by a customer at another brewery. He said the sandwiches here were great, they were big and you could share one with someone else. He also said the beer wasn't the greatest but he goes for a sandwich often. Parking is not great and when you walk in there is a beer menu but you have to read the paper menu to find out what is in the sandwich. The sandwich took about 30 min to come out. All that being said the sandwich was great, definitely worth the wait! The bacon is crispy. The bread was good and it was actually just the right size. I ordered an IPA and it was very good my friend that I went with also liked his sandwich and beer. The staff was great and everyone seemed to know each other and were very nice. I will be a new regular here for sure. Oh also reasonably priced, beer was $7 sandwich $13.“
