Our Story

A taste of New York, right here in Meriden.

New York Deli has been a staple on State Street, serving Meriden and the surrounding community with honest, hearty deli food made the old-fashioned way.

We believe a great sandwich starts with great ingredients — premium meats sliced to order, crisp vegetables, freshly baked bread, and bold flavors that don't need to shout. No shortcuts, no compromises. Just food that tastes like it was made with care.
