“The house panini is avocado, roast red pepper, spinach, pesto, chipotle sauce and possibly cheese. It is gooey, bold and has a light kick of spice.

The Ruben was delicious too.

Their daily soup and daily sandwiches do sell out during the lunch rush.

They have decaf espresso!

Vegetarian options: Great veggie sandwiches, not just lettuces & tomato on bread with a spread.“

“Worked in adjacent building for a few years before the pandemic, and then switched jobs, and now am down the road. Starting the day with a breakfast sandwich from the Merriweather Cafe & Deli would sustain me the entire day sometimes, and the staff there are very friendly, which also adds to starting off the day nicely. I hadn't been there in a while and was glad to see they are still open. NOTE: There is no big sign on the building. There is a glass door on the first floor (by the main upper parking lot entrance) and just has a sign saying Merriweather Deli and their hours. Enjoy!

Parking: Parking in the garage is the considerate thing to do versus parking along the side of the courtyard. It isn't that much farther, and if you drive electric there are Chargepoint EV chargers there.“

“I recently ordered a Turkey Bacon BLT sandwich, and it was delicious! The combination of turkey bacon, crisp lettuce, and juicy tomatoes hit all the right notes😌. The only thing I’d change next time is to ask for the bread to be toasted—it would have added that extra crunch. Still, the sandwich was fantastic, and the staff were super polite and attentive. Definitely a spot I’ll return to!“

“My 6 yo says this place gets 5 stars because of the honey chicken, noodles, and rice.

My thoughts : it's comfort food, simple, and filling. Erroneously labeled "mall Chinese" in my household, we keep coming back. If only the mall stayed open past 8pm.“

“I usually come here for either their breakfast or their soup & sandwich combo of Potato Soup and Chicken Parisian. The latter is extremely filling and delicious. I ask them to make the bacon extra crispy and they always deliver the goods! I also try to save room for one of their mini-desserts, with the fruit tart being my favorite.“
