We stopped in at about 1:30 on a Wednesday, and were able to immediately order. 10 minutes later we were out the door with our food. The deli was chock full of Polish food, candies, meats, and other absolutely delicious looking food. It's unfortunate we weren't able to try everything. We did try the Chicken Panini and Reuben, both were excellent! While some chicken in sandwiches is very thin, often over baked and bland, the chicken in my panini was thick, well seasoned and substantial. Really, the deli put everything you could want in a sandwich. read more

So many interesting and delicious items. Very friendly customer service. One alarming thing: items don't have prices displayed on them or anywhere else. You have to ask about each item. It is not good business practice read more

This store has been part of the community for around 40 years, and it truly feels like a place with history and heart. I personally knew the previous owner very well, who eventually sold the business to Marek, the current owner. I have to say -- he is doing an excellent job. The customer service is absolutely top-notch, a solid five stars. Everyone is welcoming, kind, and truly cares about the customers. The food is delicious -- the sandwiches are amazing, and I highly recommend the paczki. They are outstanding. I honestly thought that the former owner, Jadwiga, was irreplaceable... but it turns out that this place is still in very good hands. George's Polish Deli continues to be a wonderful spot with great food, great service, and a warm, authentic Polish atmosphere. I highly recommend it. read more

Amazing classic deli sandwiches at very fair prices! Kind and helpful staff. It's not closed, not sure why Yelp says that!

Ordered a pastrami on rye with cheese snd mustard. That's it. Got a block away, opened it and....mayo....cucumbers.... Went back. Explained I got wrong sandwich and told them what I had ordered. Very apologetic. Take new sandwich and discovered they added lettuce. I don't get it. Two sandwiches; both wrong. Polish condiments' section almost makes up for the sandwiches. Did they change hands? Something's off. read more

I don't normally leave reviews but hopefully this will help staff and other customers. Be prepared to wait at least an hour for your food even if you order 40 minutes ahead. There's no distinction for pick up orders so everything is in disarray also leading to extra waiting for no reason. No guidance just people standing around in the most confined area you can imagine. They will prioritize their regulars so be prepared to wait to be helped for an extra 10 minutes before they get to you. If you have nothing better to do then to wait an hour for a sandwich then this will be the place for you otherwise support coffee tree 1 block away. The food is good but not worth the wait in my opinion. read more

Got a Reuben in Rye sandwich. It was alright. Service was friendly. It was a cute little deli and grocery store with European products. It's pretty decent. A bit hard to get to since there's construction right out in front of it. So might have a tough time going around. Plenty of street parking when the area isn't busy. read more

I had a medical appointment a block from here and randomly parked in front of George's. What great luck! After my appointment I had plenty of meter so stepped in and...whoosh! Transported to a deli/sandwich shop most anywhere in Europe, this particular shop leaning heavily in the Polish direction. Wonderful mustards, pickles, canned trout, peppers, and a small but nicely done deli meat counter. I asked about the small sausage while she cut up roast pork for me and she handed me a sample- yum! Picked up an assortment of goodies and walked to my car happier than I'd planned for the day! My wife agreed about the sausage and I've put away three or four roast pork sandwiches with horseradish. This place rocks. read more

George's Sausage & Delicatessen - Deli meats! - Delis Near Me - Seattle, Washington

It's not closed. Great buys and great food! Stop by if you want good food and to fill up your pantry.

Found George's on Yelp and thought I would give it a try as it's just a short walk from the nearby hospital(s). The exterior storefront is small, but the inside is packed with well-organized European grocery items. Additionally there are a variety of sausages available for purchase. I opted for the pastrami on sourdough. The pastrami was juicy and not overly salty like some can be. The bread tasted like it was freshly baked. The portions were fair for the price (I believe around $8). The potato salad was one of the best I've had. I can't put my finger on exactly what it was, but the combination of seasoning (I think I tasted fresh dill as the difference maker) made it. In short, I'll be back for more. read more

Had fantastic sandwiches for lunch today. Turkey sub and turkey on wheat yummy. Roast beef and pastrami were great too (so much meat!). We were full after eating half the sandwiches. Can hardly wait for the other half. Next time I'm in the area I'll be back for sure. Friendly service as well. read more

Best deli in Seattle/King County (probably the PNW for that matter). Excellent quality meats, prepared in house; salted herring, Polish/Ukrainian grocery foods. Best sandwiches. And, love the potato salad. I've been stocking up at George's for about 15 years. Homey deli. Worth the effort. It won't be here for ever, don't miss out. Honestly, my favorite place in Seattle. Plan for a few extra minutes due to construction. Enjoy the great food you find. Then, let City of Seattle know they should not make it so hard for business to remain open during long-term construction. This one is a gem. read more

Great food, great service, a gem in Seattle for sure. All kind of polish goodies. I am a regular and I had their sausages, cheeses, desserts, and sandwiches - all good stuffs. Strongly recommend this place. They make their own sausages and some of the polish desserts. Parking is hard so plan accordingly. Also, looks like they now offer online ordering and catering services! read more

An absolute gem of a place. Great selection of cheese and cold cuts. Perfect for lunch if you are in the area. Plentiful selection of Polish goodies, including my favorite nalewka (fruity liqueur), śliwka (plums covered with dark chocolate), ptasie mleczko (milky-marshmallowish chocolate covered candy) and everything you like. Friendly staff. They understood my broken Polish! :D read more

George's Sausage & Delicatessen - Nalewki wiśniowa (cherry liqueur). Delicious! - Delis Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Don't get me wrong this is nothing like the sandwiches I'm used to. Is the best sandwich I've had since I've moved from New York to Seattle? Yes. I recommend the salami sandwich or the turkey sandwich. I've heard rave reviews about the potato salad... But it wasn't my favorite thing in the world. We didn't even eat it fully. The sandwiches are a little bit pricey but they're gigantic. The service is not the best. There are a few women that work in there, but when it's busy they seem very frazzled and sometimes give you the wrong sandwich or take a while to make it. read more

Incredibile deli. Perfect hole in the wall spot with THE best sandwiches in Seattle! Not to mention authentic Polish specialities like piroghe & sausage. Look no further for an unbelievable sandwich. read more

We visited family in Seattle for Easter, and this was our first stop after the airport. We needed to pick up Polish sausage for Easter dinner (as we do). This tiny little shop is a haven on all things Polish and rivals some of the Polish grocery stores we've been to in Chicago, though it's much smaller. The women behind the counter had things down to a science on what I'm sure was a busy day compounded by the lunch rush. The shelves are packed with Polish goods, including candy and kraut. The deli case is well-stocked. We had the fresh Polish sausage, which was excellent. It had a good balance of spices without being overwhelming. We couldn't resist ordering sandwiches while we were there. I had corned beef on rye. The corned beef was lean and flavorful -- and the sandwich was generous. Highly recommend this little shop, especially for those seeking an authentic Polish experience. read more

I was in the area and looked up nearby places and this place popped up. I haven't been to a Polish Deli before and this was a perfect day to try it. I had the polish sausage sandwich on rye. It ended up being a cold sandwich. Not a fan. It had a good crunch as it had sliced dill pickles, tomato, shredded lettuce, cucumber(?) and creamy sauce. The sandwich fell apart while eating it. A messy meal. The sausage in it was okay but sandwich would've been better warm. Giving this place 3 of 5 stars. Prompt service and lots of Polish groceries inside. There's also a deli counter with lots of pork products for sale. read more

I came here with my partner for a quick lunch today. we are both pescatarian, so we were counting on the tuna fish sandwich. the only non meat option. the person working the counter regretted to inform us that they had just sold out of the tuna fish. however instead of leaving it there, they offered to make us the tastiest grilled cheeses I've had in a while. and they threw in some free potato salad (also great)! food was fast, delicious, but most importantly great people work there. thanks yall read more

Amazing quality deli with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend for lunch.

Yay yay yay!!! George's is still open! All other places around it closed but their small cardboard sign announced what I wanted to see-- OPEN! It's been years since I last went here for a sandwich, but I still felt like a child in a big candy store. My eyes feasted on the snacks, treats, jams, picked veggies, beautiful deli meat, and of course the regulars-- hot sandwiches, soups, potato salad, pierogis. My group ordered potato and beef pierogis, sausage, roast beef, Reuben, and chicken panini. Everything was soooo good! They were as always very generous and we forgot how potent their sauerkraut was! Maybe we'll ask them to go easy on that next time. Otherwise, it was still the perfect generous, well loved sandwich place we've always known! Come and visit and see for yourselves what magic this place makes! read more

Food is excellent and sandwiches are the best in Seattle. Been going here forever. Sausage by the pound. Homemade sausage sandwich is my favorite. read more

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR - they carry Kasia's frozen pierogi, distributed out of Chicago! If you are a fan of dumplings, do not miss out on these delightful Polish potato & cheese pillows; eat them with sour cream. George's also carries the mushroom and sauerkraut varieties. I grew up eating Kasia's, so it makes me absolutely giddy to find this here in Seattle. The shop is packed with all sorts of other goodies - I picked up some buckwheat groats and neapolitan wafers as well. Everyone working there is super friendly and happy to answer any questions. read more

I love this place!!! The best pastrami sandwich in the city. Not to mention the kalbasa is the bomb and they carry my favorite horseradish!

Great little gem in First Hill! George's is the quintessential mom and pop place. Aside from the deli sandwiches which are decent, you should go for the polish specialty items like th pierogis! I got the beef pierogi and they were excellent. Nice homemade tasting and oh so filling! The store is also filled with many Polish specialty items like preserves, packed foods and cookies. Its only open during lunch hours and has no seating so its a striclty get your grub and go. I recommend taking your food over to Freeway park for a nice outdoor lunch! read more

How have I not written a review for this place (given that I am Duchess muahaha). OMG I love George's Delicatessen. The food here is so delicious and the ladies behind the counter are very helpful. Once you open their doors, you immediately get a sense of their authenticity. The sandwiches are good (you can order some from the menu or build-your-own with the condiments listed on the blackboard); try their mushroom soup; get the panino chicken sandwich (it looks like the special of the day but it's really always there haha but get french bread instead of the one it usually ones on); and ask them to recommend a beer to pair it with. They surprisingly have a nifty beer collection (small but so far all pretty good). Also, shop around and check out their other products. I recommend Happy Barrels (chocolate filled with booze....) Note: you will have to find somewhere else to eat your lunch because there are no sits inside the deli. read more

Stopped in 10 minutes before closing to get some sausage for a Polish meal that my boyfriend wanted to make for us. The woman who assisted me was so welcoming and friendly and gladly gave me her suggestions on sauerkraut and beer too at my request. The food was amazing and I will be back to support them! read more

Wow. Wow. WOW! My goodness is this place amazing! Tons of condiments and polish snacks to choose from, but the SANDWICHES!!! They are made with LOVE! Also, the customer service is unmatched. I just had an amazing experience i will definitely be back :) If you're looking for a healthier option on the Hill, stop by this place! read more

Depending on the time of day, this little deli could be jam packed with more people squeezing in every minute or totally empty where the ladies behind the counter will quickly help you out. The sandwiches are fat, filled with a generous portion of one or any combination of meat plus whatever veggies / condiments (mayo, mustard) you want. I get mine with everything, but it gets messy and soggy pretty fast. The ingredients aren't evenly distributed on the bread, so that means humongous meaty center, and not as meaty perimeter. Sandwiches aren't made super quick like Jimmy john style, but it gives you time to browse their wide variety of condiments, noodles, snacks, and plenty of other goods you won't find at a regular grocery store. read more
