I love the sandwiches at the original location in Brooklyn, but found them to be just like any other bodega at this location. First of all, this location is much smaller and the sandwiches are also smaller. Part of the charm is watching them chop up your sandwich fillings, which this was done behind the counter. I ordered one Chopped Turkey on a Hero ($10.99) and one Chopped on a Hero ($11.99) with Cheese (+$1). The ingredients are well mixed in, which is what makes a chopped sandwich so good. It was a bit more bread than filling than I liked. I can't help but compare the OG location when there was so much more filling. This location is also quite the distance, but walkable to Central Park where we enjoyed it. read more

Place makes a fantastic chopped cheese! Very consistent -- I want to play with some of the other sandwich combos (where they chop up the sandwich for you and add in chips/toppings of your choice), but every time I come in I end up getting the chopped cheese! I just can't help myself read more

I had a delivery order of a chopped tuna sandwich, Greek salad, Caesar salad, potato chips, a corn muffin and a Boylan black cherry soda. I had the chopped tuna sandwich with "everything", Swiss cheese on hero bread. It was very good. The Caesar salad was good for a delivery order, though this is probably not something one should order outside of a restaurant that makes it authentically at the table side. They gave a lot of well-dressed salad for the price. The Greek salad was decent but they came up short on a proper dressing. The corn muffin was delicious, but I would like to have seen some actual kernels of corn inside the muffin. Packing was excellent. In all, a great place for a fresh hero sandwich, chopped or not. read more

First off dude behind the counter... Super cool. Friendly took care of my order quickly & had some small talk about the Knicks. I had the turkey ham with provolone cheese, LT, mayo CHOPPED on a roll... DEE-LIISSSHHH! Small deli, but enough of a selection to satisfy your taste buds. Definitely will be going back next time I'm in the area. Two thumbs all the way up!!! read more

I was kind of having trouble deciding what to have for lunch today because every place on Door Dash that I wanted to order from was giving a scheduled time of 1pm. Honestly, a sandwich wasn't really what I wanted but I had heard good things about this place so I decided to try them. I ordered a chopped honey turkey on a roll with lettuce, onions, peppers, pickles with 3 pepper Colby cheese and crushed Doritos with oil and vinegar. The sandwich was wrapped carefully and they gave me napkins as well as some honey mustard that I asked for on the side. So, I didn't dislike the sandwich but I wasn't too fond of it either-the filling kept falling out after almost every bite. The combination of the Doritos and the pickles/peppers/vinegar gave the sandwich a kind of one note flavor that I didn't care for. I think the idea of chopped sandwiches is good but I probably wouldn't get it chopped next time so I can actually taste the turkey better. (If that makes any sense lol). Maybe I'll try a cutlet sandwich next time. read more

My favorite chopped cheese and BEC is here. The staff is super friendly, great part of the community!

Incredible chopped sandwich. They were about to close and turned the grill on for us. I can't give them enough praise not only for the quality but customer service. read more

I have been curious about chopped sandwhiches as a total sub and sandwhich lover. There is a famous location in Brooklyn (which I hope to try) but was around midtown so stopped by to get a quick, to-go dinner. Note that this location is fairly small and unassuming, and there isn't any seating and just a counter for ordering. I got a chopped turkey on a roll with jalapeños ($11.50). Note that it's $2 extra to convert a regular sandwich into a chopped one. I regret not adding a bag of chips to chop into the sandwich. I also think it would have tasted yummy warmed up, which I didn't realize was an option. The service was very friendly and attentive, and seemed to really care about making sure you got a great sandwich. It was also packaged/wrapped well, making it easy to eat on the go. I'd come back and recommend this place to others! read more

Great sandwiches, they take care of you- I came in as they were cleaning up and they still took my order, which was very nice. Don't think 24/7 on yelp is accurate though read more

I'll never come here again. Tried ordering a sandwich on my break and was completely ignored. Man behind the counter was on his phone the entire time, just ignored me as if I was waiting on line to order. After about 3 minutes, someone else comes in the store and he instantly goes to ring them up for their stuff as if I wasn't there. Truly unacceptable read more

Great neighborhood addition. They are known for their famous original spot in Brooklyn. Small place for grab and go sandwiches with lots of chips and drink options. No seating. read more

Headed to the Farmer in the Deli bodega after a recommendation. The staff was friendly and offered help with the menu. What an interesting concept. Pick your meats and condiments, and they chop it all and place it on a nice soft sub roll. The combinations are unlimited. The place is small with only a counter, no place to see. So we grabbed our sammies and looked for a place to eat.... We ended up sitting on a bus stop bench.... the only downside. The sammies were great..... Sorry I don't live in NY so that I could try other combinations..... lucky New Yorkers! read more

Absolutely wonderful! My teenage goddaughter wanted to try a chopped cheese sandwich for her first trip to NYC and this did not disappoint! As Midwesterners, we had no idea what to ask for/order. The gentleman working (I feel so bad I didn't catch his name!) explained everything and made some recommendations. He was so friendly and we chatted with him about Chicagoland while he made the food. We ended up with 3 chopped cheese sandwiches on rolls, with different toppings for each. They were absolutely delicious!!! My only disappointment was that I didn't have another day to come back and eat there again! The deli itself is tiny but well-stocked with drinks and snacks. That being said, there was a bistro table and couple of chairs set up outside, which was perfect relief for our tired feet from hiking around NYC all day. There was a wall of chips that I considered adding to my chopped cheese, per his recommendation, but I ended up just sticking with the sandwich itself. The prices were super reasonable and the owner was amazing! I will be recommending this spot to everyone I know! :) read more

These guys are the best. Told them I was excited they had my favorite chips (pop corners spicy queso) and he let me know they're his faves, too. Good sandwiches - better service :) if you're in this neighborhood,, definitely make them your go-to corner store. read more

I highly recommend this Farmer in the Deli located on 56th Street. This was my first time visiting and I was immediately made to feel welcome. This place is both a deli and store. As for the deli, all sandwiches are freshly made to order and can be customize any way you like. They are VERY FAMOUS for the "CHOPPED SANDWICH". Basically you can have any of the meats or cheeses you want along with other veggie items and any other condiments you wish. Everything is piled together and chopped up and placed on a Kaiser roll or a torpedo roll. Many like to add chips to the mix! The location is clean and well maintained. The displays throughout the store make everything easy to find. Customer service is great, if you are having difficulty deciding what you want, they will give you helpful suggestions. In conclusion, if you are in NYC, head on up to 56th Street and give Farmer in the Deli a try. It is well worth the trip and you will be glad you did!!! read more

This place is great!!! I come here a few times per week for breakfast sandwiches and chopped sandwiches, and they're always perfect. The service is excellent and the prices are great for the quality.

This place is fantastic! The Brooklyn location of Farmer in the Deli made the chopped sandwich a famous thing in New York and the Manhattan location is no different! This is my second trip to Farmer and I will keep coming back. The staff is so friendly and accommodating and will make you any combination of sandwich! I got a chopped Turkey, Salami, and Cheese on a hero and the sandwich was huge! RUN don't walk to Farmer in the Deli! read more

A real neighborhood gem! Small but what they did have looked tasty. A lot of delis won't make breakfast food after a certain hour but these guys were happy to make me an omelet at 2pm and it was delicious. While I was waiting a good number of return customers came in, one ordering "the usual" which is always a good sign. read more

Great little spot to get a sandwich. Service was friendly and fast. Our sandwiches (I got a Jersey Roll) tasted great. It would be nice to have more seating or tables in the area, we ended up taking our sandwiches back to our hotel and eating in the lobby. read more

Hole in the wall. Reasonably priced and good. Nice service too. No seating though. So it's all to go.

Farmer in the Deli brought a location to the Midtown East area from Brooklyn. I believe their claim to fame is the chopped sandwich, which is actually quite good. A chopped sandwich is essentially chopping up and converting deli meat into a chicken/tuna salad-like concoction. read more

A great quick stop for some yummy sandwiches. We got the chopped sandwiches, and you can customize them however you like. The workers were super nice and helpful. We will probably be back! read more

I loved the chopped sandwich. I picked my favorites and it was both filling and delicious.

Got a chopped sandwich from Farmer in the Deli. Friendly service, fresh bread and delicious sandwich overall. Will be back!

We visited the smaller Farmer in the Deli on the East side. It is a tiny building squeezed between larger businesses so you could miss the place like we almost did. We walked in and the two people behind the service bar were very happy and helpful. We asked what their best selling item was... The Chopped Meats... We chose the bread, the meat (turkey) and they told us what else was going in it. The guy behind the counter took everything, placed it onto a chopping board. After a while It became a huge pile of stuff. He then shoved it into the baguette, tossed in a little oil & vinegar, wrapped it up. We took it to Central Park. IT WAS AMAZING!!! Will go definitely go back. Add a drink, and chips. Great for park days at the Sheep's Meadow. read more

Was influenced by TikTok and gave the Manhattan location a go. The guys behind the counter were so nice and helpful! The guy making the sandwich really cared about what was in it and asked us what we wanted. I shared a sandwich (chopped turkey with provolone and everything on hero). Sandwich was good, it's an interesting concept, almost like a tuna or chicken salad but with different ingredients. Bonus: they're new and giving out 15% discounts to new customers. Gave each of us a chocolate and packed it up very nicely. read more

This spot is famous for their amazing chopped sandwiches. While there I was greeted by the owners they were very nice and engaged in small talk with us. They even gave us a free cookie, and although it's a small shop it is clean feels welcoming and has some of the best sandwiches in NYC. All in all, Farmer In The Deli is definitely a spot worth visiting. read more

Tried Farmer in the deli for the first time today. Had no idea it was a famous spot in Brooklyn. Great sandwich!! Really hope this place sticks as the area really needs a great sandwich shop. Get the chopped and ask them to heat it up. Super friendly service and made to order. If your not looking for it, you'll definitely miss as its on a side-street (56th) off of 2nd Ave. Best sandwich in the area and it's not even close! read more

I live in the neighborhood and walk by this place all the time. I was craving a turkey wrap and saw the amazing reviews so I had to check it out for myself. The guy behind the counter could not have been nicer and my sandwich is awesome! I wish I had taken a photo but I dove in too fast! Thank you! read more
