9 Best Delis near High Bridge

“One of the best delis in our area“

“Mel’s Bagel & Deli is such a great spot, and I’m so glad I stopped in. From the moment I walked in, the service was super friendly and kind, which immediately set the tone for a great experience. My bagel was made really quickly, and it came out hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. It was perfectly toasted — soft and chewy on the inside with that nice crisp on the outside that makes a bagel just right.

The place itself is clean and welcoming, and there’s seating available if you want to stay and eat. They have two tables for two people and three tables for four, which is great for a small breakfast or lunch stop. While I was waiting, it was actually fun to watch them make the bagels and hot bagel sandwiches for the customers ahead of me — you can tell everything is made with care and attention.

They also have a full coffee bar with everything you could want to customize your drink, and the coffee itself was delicious. Definitely not an afterthought here — it pairs perfectly with the bagels. On top of that, they offer more than just breakfast. They have lunch options as well, and the bagels are made in-house, which really makes a difference in quality and flavor.

There’s also a drink cooler with a big selection, plus plenty of chips and extras, making it an easy one-stop spot whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or a full meal. While I was there, I overheard someone ordering their homemade soup and saying it’s the best in the area — so that’s officially on my list to try next time.

Overall, Mel’s Bagel & Deli is a fantastic local spot with great food, excellent coffee, and genuinely friendly service. I’ll definitely be back again (and again).“

“Just stopped in for a sandwich, I was craving a grilled turkey sandwich, I chose the Rte 31, and it did not disappoint! So delicious! And to top it off, the gentleman at the counter who made it was so kind and friendly. Overall a wonderful experience. I’ll definitely be back soon!“

“I had the pleasure of having lunch here yesterday .

“I have gotten many different things off their menu. Everything has been phenomenal and their soups are awesome.“

“The Italian Hoagie is amazing!!! The service was excellent!!“

“honestly surprised I'm the first to review this place.. been around as long as I can remember and it is probably the only place around where you can still get lunch for under $10. No thrills or frills here. Just fresh ingredients, simple sandwiches made by lovely people and served with a smile. If you're looking for a quick, easy affordable bite, this is the spot!“

“I didn’t catch the employee’s name but I recently picked up an order while carrying my baby. The employee offered to carry my order to my car which was right outside the door. I thought that was so kind and helpful. His parent or parents have raised a good hearted child. The wraps I ordered were delicious as everything else I’ve ordered in the past as well.“
