Deli is great. So many options of deli meats and cheeses to choose from. Staff are friendly and helpful when it comes to questions My parents have a shore house in the area and this is our go to spot for hoagies and deli meats. I'd recommend read more

What a great resource for the local community and visitors alike! This was my first visit this sweet little store to pick up steaks to grill for our last night in Cape May. I chose 2 nice strip steaks that proved delicious accompanied by mushrooms, broccoli and potatoes for oven baked fries - which i also got at the store. I needed some deli meat and the woman at the meat counter recommended their own ham, which is very tasty and definitely much better than what you get in a package at the grocery store. So far I've made sandwiches and chef salad that were a cut above the usual. It would be perfect if they offered just a bit more produce...but I understand there might not be enough demand to warrant it. The people were friendly and helpful and the customers all seemed to be regulars. A great resource for locals and visitors alike. read more

Came here at the recommendation of fellow Yelper Dee M. I'm so glad she did! Gaiss Market is old school corner deli & grocery, the kind of place that used to be everywhere, until huge supermarkets came along. For me it was partially a trip down memory lane. The market is small, cluttered, with a decent mix of dry goods, cold, packaged meats snd fresh veggies. The deli/meat counter is the star, with super fresh, high quality meats. I orders the supreme Italian hoagie. It was excellent. Fresh tomatoes full of flavor, great roll, generous quantities of meats. I also picked up some packaged goods, including Gaiss' own pork roll, vacuum packed and "award winning". It's delicious, as is their vacuum packed bacon which is cut at a perfect thickness. We liked them both so much I've got orders to stock up next time I'm down there. Nice people, it's now a bring your own bags store - local ordinance. Nothing is cheap, the quality makes it worth the higher price. Parking - pull up spots around the building. Definitely will be back soon. read more

Gaiss Market - Deluxe Italian Hoagie yummmmm - Meat Shops Near Me - Villas, New Jersey

Since the 1960's, and never fail with tender beef, chicken breasts, and lunch eats. Appreciate the hot sandwiches now also! Can't beat the salads, fresh rolls, and fast service! read more

This is the quintessential butcher/deli that every town needs. The authentic homemade Lebanon bologna, sausages, bacon, and potato/macaroni salads are delicious! Everything we've ever tried has been top notch! read more

Great little mom and pop corner store/deli. Came here looking for some tuna and egg salad since the place we normally buy it (Heritage) has closed its doors. I was surprised to find they sell Jewish Apple Cake! (I ended up buying a 1/4 slice to try at home). They had a deli counter to order items as well as a grocery area and various refrigerated areas with prepared foods. We were able to get egg salad but no tuna salad unfortunately. Employees were nice and it was a great experience overall. read more

Gaiss Market - the front of the store - Meat Shops Near Me - Villas, New Jersey

The sandwich was awful. You better bring a bag because they do t even have paper bags. I had to carry 2 sodas , 3 subs , macaroni salad ( that was aweful, I threw it away) and chips in my arms .. read more

Please see my previous review because everything is still just as great. I would add that if you're down here definitely get a hoagie because it's as good as the old hoagies from south Philly. Also check the cold cases for a variety of side items like potato salad ,coleslaw, cucumber salad etc. All really good. On this visit for take home I got a chuck roast, T-bone steak, a fillet mignon, a premium Italian hoagie and a quarter sheet cake that was made from a local baker. Their prices on their baked items are exceptionally good. And their prices on their meats are reasonable for high-quality cuts. The employees are really, really nice so it's a pleasure to stop here and grab some stuff to take home. You can't go wrong here read more

Gaiss Market - a white truck parked in front of a building - Meat Shops Near Me - Villas, New Jersey

Try chesse steaks tooo. Been coming here for eve I am in my 50's and my use to doing this stuff sorry for the late post read more

Different cheesesteak #987 in the last four years. Guest eaters oldest daughter Jordan hosting Amigo Dan and his Posse. We are all fans of Gaiss Market but not this particular cheesesteak sans our host. It was a traditional cheesesteak. The roll didn't help this cheesesteak. It alligatored and was bready. The meat was okay. It needed more cheese and a better mix of the cheese. read more

I thought this was a great spot to stop for subs and pre seasoned food for stocking our Airbnb. The italian sub was not the best sub I have ever had. But I really enjoyed the customer service and variety of foods and snacks. Great little business to support! read more

No consistency. Tonight's sandwich had literally 2 strands of lettuce and 2 pieces of banana peppers. Why!!!! Sometimes they are good, times like tonight not so much. read more

Gaiss Market - Meat Shops Near Me - Villas, New Jersey

This is a great deli. I come here whenever I visit my parents who have a house nearby. They have so many different things to choose from and are fairly priced. When we come, we usually come and grab lunch meat to make sandwiches or hoagies. They also have fresh salads, potato, macaroni and salads like that which are really tasty. They also have a nice selection of cakes and pie. read more

So many amazing things to say about Gaiss Market! First, their sandwich counter is incredible. They have the best staff, freshest ingredients, tastiest sandwiches, and a huge range of options. I could eat one of their sandwiches every day. Second, the meat selection here is ABUNDANT - and everything is homemade, trimmed, and packaged with care. The kielbasa and breakfast sausages are my current favorites. Prepared foods - like pasta salad, potato salad, corn salad - are all excellent, super flavorful, fresh, and dirt cheap. Same with the bread/bakery area. I love all of their soft, pillowy rolls. Finally, the staff are friendly, nice, helpful, and warm. The interior is a bit cramped and they calculate everything by hand at the register, but I find those things charming and not annoying. read more

Love love their meats, sandwiches, lunchmeat, quality meats. Best breakfast sausage & Christmas sausage is a must rry read more

The reviews did not let me down. This gem crams a lot of amazing stuff into a small footprint. Homemade sausage, fine cuts of meats and a great sandwich counter - the three things you want in your town, all in one place. Places like this are rare and need to be celebrated like the treasures they are. The pro move is to put in your sandwich order first and then shop as they make it. Oh, one last thing, they make homemade pork roll. I wish I could give it a sixth star. read more

Great little corner market, looks family owned. We were staying in the Villas and lunch time snuck up on me. A sando would hit the spot, saw this place and tried it out. Small menu, but all good choices. We ordered a buffalo chicken cheesesteak, a porkroll with cheese on a Kaiser roll and a side of fries. Excellent price. I had the buffalo chicken cheesesteak and it was fantastic. Flavorful, lots of chicken and sauce, great soft bread. Fries were standard delicious, crunchy outside. I told my sister-in-law they had meats, sausages that looked really good if they wanted to grill some more. And at the counter, I was super tempted to buy, a handy dandy s'mores kit! I took a look around and saw they had some basic groceries if needed, like cereal and what not. Lady who took my order over the phone was really friendly and sweet. Both counter people had their masks on. Highly recommend. read more

Nice neighborhood market with a lot of offerings. Desserts like cake and pie. Produce like lettuce and tomatoes. There's also bread, etc. You can also get meat from the butcher. We got the sausages from the fridge and ate them with pasta at home. read more

Great place, but just so they are aware, as I'm clearly not driving back over this, but I got a premium Italian hoagie. Ordered oil, get home and it's bone dry. No salt, pepper, and oregano either.guess they just skipped the last step. Had to add mayo. Cool beat. read more

Great meat , not cheap but fresh and the best. Quality food. Good sandwiches and steak sandwiches.

Did an online order and everything was perfect. Lunch meat was sliced exactly as requested. Rolls were fresh. The staff were friendly and helpful. read more

We were driving through from Delaware to Cape May, and suddenly got hungry for lunch. We got take out hoagies--Italian Supreme. Good value for a 12 inch hoagie at about $8. Good taste, could have used a few more onions, and the roll could have been crisper. Also I would prefer the meat be capicola and salami only on the Supreme, to be fully authentic. Bland boiled ham doesn't fit--for ne at least. Overall the sandwich was good and I would go back. read more

Yes.... the kielbasa. Over and over again ... but the filet mignon???? Yes.... the filet mignon!!!! So yummy. These guys, gals, know what they are doing. read more

We have always gone to Robinson's deli, we decided to try here instead and we were blown away! The macaroni salad was amazing, and the coleslaw was just like my moms. We bought pasta salad and some lunch meats too, we were very impressed by the quality of it all. The staff is super nice too. We will definitely be using this deli instead from now on. My only complaint is the pricing for convenience items, like mayo or condiments pricing for small items was very high. read more

Everything I bought was very good. The lunch meats were great and the hoagie was amazing also. I picked up some macaroni salad and also some potato salad. Both of those were very good as well. Thank you to this place for the great food. read more

If you're looking for the real deal butcher shop this is your place. Excellent meats fantastic service. I go there weekly for my lunch meats and great rye bread. I could just go up the street to the Acme but I believe in supporting local family businesses. Their own made Hot Dogs sausage and many other products can't be beat. Highly recommend this Great store. read more

A good neighborhood market. Fresh bread, lunch meats cheeses. Their own roasted meats and sausage. Potatoes salads, macaroni salads, cole slaw etc. Fresh hoagie and steak sandwiches. You can call in your order they will tell you when to pick it up. read more

What's not to love about this market? It's deli, meat AND baked items are to die for

Food excellent , service great, great atmosphere!!Always a pleasure to shop there. Everyone is always so helpful!

I just stopped in for a few staples when I got to the Villas for my first time stay. I didn't try the sandwiches but the store was small, cramped and over priced. $5.50 for a squeeze bottle of mayonnaise? Found out later there was an Acme further up the road. read more

Went to Gaiss Market yesterday. I bought 4 lbs of sirloin steak, they were excellent. The meat was so tender and delicious. I think price is very reasonable. read more

I have gotten Andouille sausage and kielbasa on a few occasions and it was delicious! Definitely a great place for meat at the shore. Fresh and high quality! read more

We order sandwiches at least twice when we vacation at the Villas! Their food is always fresh! Their lunchmeat is delicious.... great for ordering some to go to make sandwiches for the beach. You have to try their freshly main salads, especially their potato salad! It's delicious! They also have a little mini market that sells so many necessities that we shop for when staying down the shore. We will actually be back in a few weeks and can't wait to stop at Gaiss'! read more

Gaiss manhandled our lunch hungries with a deeply soothing corned beef special and Gaiss's own turkey hoagie that didn't break the bank. We trotted right back up the street and picked up dinner-time sage stuffing pork chops and potato salad. Here for a week and first night in the Villas in Cape May and so glad to have a little family touch like this right up the street. read more

Was a decent small grocery store / butcher shop. Was expecting something a bit different - like either a country butcher shop or Italian butcher shop that have a warm family inviting vibe. The layout was a bit off and so maybe just needs a little re-thinking to make the space more inviting / welcoming. All behind the butcher counter wore proper masks the cashier wore a face shield and was behind plexi glass so for the most part abiding by COVID CDC guidelines. read more

Doggie smoked bones .... my cairn terrier LOVES them. Very large but they are so nice the cashier lady told me they would cut them for me. They are perfect size for her now..... so I think I will make myself a Gaiss roast beef sandwich with New Yorker American cheese. Mmmm read more

Very unusual homemade meats. 12 different types of sausage. Extremely nice people working in the deli and should receive 5 Stars. Unfortunately you can't get out of the store without going through the cashier. Don't expect her to unload your basket or bag your purchase but you can expect some nasty remarks. She deserves zero Stars so the average is 4 stars . read more
