Staff was amazing. The girls helped us out and were very polite. Got meats for lunch and breakfast was amazing.

Attempted to call ahead and was told they don’t take phone orders even though their website says to call ahead. Arrived on site and ordered 9 sandwiches. Watched 30 people come in after me and leave with their freshly made sandwiches. After 30 minutes inquired about my order and was told by an annoyed staff that I dared to even ask about my order that i ordered a lot of sandwiches and the 30 people that came and went after me only ordered one. After waiting 15 more minutes someone from the back came out and told me they ran out of bread and chicken and had to make more. I thanked them for the helpful update and asked how much longer it would be. They didn’t have an answer. My sandwiches arrived and one was missing. The woman behind the register was annoyed when I told her after an hour I am still Missing a sandwich. She did not help me find which was missing and acted like she was doing me a favor by making the sandwich that was already paid for. I tried something new and regret it. I will not be returning and do not recommend this deli. Will continue to give my business to the cafe next door that has a lovely team and delivers excellent food and service.

“GRILL” closes at 2 but shop closes at 3!
I am so sad to say that I had an extremely poor experience at Tom Baileys. I have gone here since I was a child with my family and the food is amazing. The last time I visited I noticed the cashier at the deli was not the friendliest …didn’t look up to say hello, didn’t smile, and looked annoyed when I wanted to substitute a cheese. I had the same cashier today and it was the same energy. I said hello twice because I thought she didn’t hear me. I asked for one of the hot sandwiches and the woman behind the cashier screamed NO at me. I was taken aback and said excuse me and it was just again very rude and attitude. I wasn’t even mad I couldn’t get the sandwich just confused what she was screaming no to.
People have tough days I get it but this is your job and not only was I shocked but so was the girl behind me. This is not how you treat loyal customers to a small business and I hope this can improve soon because this is not the first review!

Overall good food but out of the two times I’ve been there, they got the order wrong both times. I noticed the person I give the order to is translating it to someone else in a different language, so I think something is getting lost in translation.

Place is dirty the floors were not swept. The countertops were not wiped. The sandwich was mediocre at best.

Small deli. Excellent sandwiches. I had a Black Russian and my wife had a grilled Reuben. Generous portions of meat and very tasty.

The good - delicious sandwiches, pricing is reasonable.

The bad - They had rotting produce and tomato in the main entrance fridge area. Always a bad look to not sort through your produce like that, makes me wonder what happens in the kitchen. Additionally, got a cucumber salad that I think they forgot to season or dress… tasted like nothing.

I've been a regular at Tom Bailey's for a long time, experiencing top-notch service, delicious food, and a comfortable atmosphere at this local establishment. From the savory Chicken Gumbo to the must-try Mexican Reuben sandwich, the menu is filled with flavor. And don't sleep on Taco Tuesday - it's a fantastic lunchtime special!

Do not get me wrong… the pork roll sandwiches, the donuts, etc foodwise is top notch. The service at the deli section is actually expedient and friendly. Dealing with the unpleasant woman at the front register makes this a “can miss experience”. A real shame, Spring Lake is full of friendly people and workers and this landmark greets you with the “Donut Nazi”

While the service was a bit slow, the sandwiches were good quality as expected and there was plenty of outdoor seating.
