Mountain Deli - Scotch Plains

I have been coming here once or twice a week for the last decade but after today never again. I bit my tounge for the last 2 years with them overcharging me $2-3 dollars more then their online menu and price in- store is always inconsistant as well, I chalked it up to the Pandemic. Today was the straw that broke the camels back, I call in for a Turkey sub with gravy (listed on their menu $5.35 knowing well it will cost at least $8 at pickup) the woman answered the phone was unfriendly and stated we don't serve gravy. I responded that my order was placed many times before with gravy she then proceeded to tell me that she thinks they are all out. They lost a good cash paying customer but I suspect based on their attitude they could care less.

If the category dive delis was a thing, Mountain Deli would be a leader in the field. The decor gives off 1990s bodega vibes, which is at least partly because some of the furnishings date back to then. Fortunately, you aren 't coming here to eat the carpet. I prefer breakfast to lunch at this spot. It 's fun to come in and see all the regulars getting their coffee from a hot pot poured out behind the counter, each of them greeted with their first name. The breakfast sandwiches are fresh and tasty, though not too generous of a portion for the price. This place also does a decent job at lunchtime, making deli sandwiches that are in general better than their lunchtime hot sandwiches. Nothing to write home about, but they feature the same fresh food with friendly service that you 'd get at breakfast.

My regular deli for the last year. Great food, great service and the nicest owners! They know my order as soon as they pick up the phone. A terrific local place for a sandwich! Especially like to chat with Jake, Tessa and Jacqui when I pop in for my take out.

Best people and place to grab a coffee and sandwich in the neighborhood. Highly recommend the taylor ham, egg, cheese and potatoes on everything bagel.

Great old school local deli. Breakfast sandwiches are great. Friendly people.
