Parsippany Deli / Emerald Gifts

Excellent subs. Fresh bread, great meats, perfectly put together. Please note that the full size will last you three meals - literally lasted me all day.

I ordered an egg white sandwich, but when I got home, it didn’t have egg whites. I called and spoke to the owner, and it seemed like he was annoyed that I ordered egg whites. He told me that he doesn’t offer egg whites. I asked why no one mentioned that when I placed the order, and he responded with attitude, acting surprised that I was upset. I would definitely recommend staying away from this place, as the owner clearly doesn’t prioritize customer service.

Food is a 10/10 in my opinion. Had 2 very good experiences here at this spot. Sadly, had a, not so good, experience today with an older lady. Came in at about 2pm to grab a sandwich, they close at 3pm. Lady comes to the counter with an obvious attitude as if I'm inconvenience her day by wanting to order a sub. I asked her for a whole sub and she let out the most obvious sigh of annoyance that I would order a sub 45 mins before they close. To the lady, that's not how you treat a customer, hope your day gets better. Will not be returning. Great place besides her.

I was in the area and decided to stop in for a sub. My bf has been coming here for years and swears by this deli as one of the best around.This mom and pop deli is not much to look at from the outside.They have free parking out front with several spots they share with another business.Once inside you can see why they call this place The Parsippany Deli/ Emerald Gifts aka The Irish Deli.As soon as you walk in the front door, they have a glass counter that displays beautiful China from Ireland. They sell teas, marmalade, sausages, bacon, black and white pudding, Irish candies, also Brennan's bread.During the month of March they make and sell homemade Irish Soda Bread.As you make your way to the front counter you will meet owner Eddie, and Avril. They were both very friendly and told me about their business. Posted on the counter is their sandwich and salad menus.The Parsippany deli/Emerald gifts has been in business for 50 years, now I know why. Their prices are reasonable, and everything is homemade. They also do catering.They roast all their own meats like Roast Beef, Turkey Breast, and Baked Virginia Ham. I highly suggest getting a half of a sub. It’s as big as most whole subs.This place doesn’t skimp on their meats, just the opposite.When I got home and opened up my sub I was pleasantly surprised, and couldn’t believe how much meat was on it. It was probably one of the best Italian subs I’ve ever had and I’ve been all over for subs.I ordered their Italian Sub - Ham, Salami, Capocollo they call it Hot Ham, and Cheese. I got mine with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayo, oil and vinegar. It was really delicious. I wound up eating a half of a half and saved the rest for later.My bf ordered their Roast Beef n American Cheese Sub. The Roast Beef was cooked perfectly rare and piled on the sandwich with lettuce, tomato, oil and vinegar. He enjoyed it so much he ate the entire thing.I also ordered 2 of their homemade salads. Macaroni and Potato Salad. The macaroni was my favorite. It was rich and creamy.I highly recommend this place, you won’t be disappointed

Parking: They share the spaces with another business. It doesn’t seem to be a problem to park

Outstanding subs. Pleasant service.

Owner Ed Hansberry is why this deli is the greatest in NJ, which is a hard title to have. The services he provides, along with an extensive Irish product line and foods are outstanding. We try to stop by every time we are in the area because we know we will always be well-treated and welcomed. He stands by Cead Mile Failte!

Love. I had a great ham and swiss. Perfect old school deli.

They make the best sub sandwiches

Great lunch!!!!

Excellent attention!!

Started going to the deli in 1978. Ed has a great sense of humor, helpful and the sandwiches are large servings at a very fair price.
