After seeing maven's delicatessen on Instagram, I had to come here…read more It was a blistering hot day out, and I walked into a pleasantly air-conditioned establishment. Loved the atmosphere and the place was spotless. One of the waitresses seated us asked us if we'd like a drink and pickles with coleslaw. We said yes pickles were great. Coleslaw was very vinegary. Was not a fan of that. We both ordered half a pound of pastrami sandwiches with Swiss cheese and mustard. The pastrami was very lean and sliced very thin and that was good. But I found the pastrami lacking in flavor. I think I was expecting pastrami like they sell at Katz's deli or the old now closed Carnegie's in New York. Would come back to try other things.

I really wanted to like Maven's. With all the hype surrounding this place, I expected something…read morespecial. After several visits, though, I'd describe it with one word: meh. To be clear, the food isn't bad. It's perfectly edible. The problem is that it's also remarkably average, especially considering the prices they're charging. Nothing I've ordered has made me think, "I can't wait to come back for that." It's just...fine. We actually visited during opening weekend, and it was a bit of a mess. They ran out of pastrami, which is a pretty big problem for a deli that was generating so much excitement. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because opening weekends can be chaotic. Since then, we've been back several times hoping things would improve, but the experience has been largely the same. The biggest issue, aside from the food being average, is the service. It's consistently slow. I can understand waiting when a restaurant is packed, but we've experienced long waits even when there were very few customers inside. It feels like everything moves at half speed, and that's been true on multiple visits. I also think they're trying a little too hard to be Katz's Delicatessen. That's an incredibly high bar, and instead of trying to recreate that experience, I'd rather see them focus on becoming the best version of themselves. Right now, it feels like the ambition exceeds the execution. The one thing I will gladly compliment is the bagels. They've been excellent every time we've ordered them, and honestly, they're probably the strongest item on the menu. I do think there's plenty of room for improvement, which is why I'm giving two stars instead of one. There's clearly potential here, and I genuinely hope they find their footing because I'd love to have another great deli in the area. We'll probably give them another chance down the road, and I hope I can come back and update this review with a much more positive experience.

Finally someone picked up but that put us 15 minutes behind in the ordering process and getting to our event. Answers to my questions- no fries and rice is extra (why is rice extra in a burrito?!) The order was not ready on time. Took an extra 10 minutes. The food- bleh! My burrito had no flavor. I felt like I wasted my money. Then I dipped into the taquitos I ordered and again- where was the flavor? I did not utter a word but my husband made a comment and I felt validated that we wasted $70 on our family dinner. My daughters burrito- I paid extra for sour cream and there was no sour cream. The hot sauces- one is too mild and one is too spicy. Why no medium?! This taco shop can go back to California.

They have a counter where they make sandwiches. But don't expect a real deli when coming here. Menu board with items they don't sell anymore are turned around. They didn't have roast beef. Sandwiches had a single piece of meat. It's just not a deli. And that's fine. It should be a nice and clean convenience store.

The French dip is very good, loaded with roast beef, slight hint of horseradish sauce and cooked red onion. The au jus was the perfect amount for dipping the whole sandwich with every bite.

Millers is by far the best roast beef I've had in Rhode Island, but if you're from Massachusetts you probably would be disappointed. I would say it's like their little brother's roast beef.

The parking lot can be hard to get out of at prime time for traffic, but there is a decent amount of parking as it seems most people were just picking up and leaving. There is some seating inside though! The staff at the counter were SO friendly! It's refreshing to recieve good customer service these days. We got the family meal deal which comes with 4 fully customizable roast beef sandwiches and 2 large fries or onion rings (onion rings have a $2 up charge) for 29.99 which for the size of the sandwiches and fries it is definitely worth it. We also got two sides of pickles, and a bottle of their BBQ sauce to try. The pickles are your average deli style pickle slices. The BBQ sauce is the best mix of sweet and tangy, with a little bit of spice. Everything even after a half hour drive was hot and fresh tasting. We will definitely be back for more!

The sandwich had turkey, cheese, bacon ( I picked off), greens, and a delicious aioli sauce. I suggested that my husband and I go in and try it a couple months later. It is located in the same plaza as Avenue N in Rumford. The storefront is made up of a glass "garage door" so it is pretty cool and unique inside. Service was prompt and friendly. Hubby tried the Cuban, he loved it, and I, creature of habit, stuck to my turkey panini. Once we ordered, the sandwiches came up faster than I expected. I had to use the bathroom and had to go next door to Avenue N. The owner or manager held the door for me, and was very friendly. Everyone that we have met there is friendly. If you want a good sandwich you won't be disappointed!

I had no idea until I had to sign for it! The special board didn't have a price and all the other sandwiches were around $8 so I thought it would be the same. Even worse, one bite in and I was disgusted. The chicken was not cooked well and had that rubbery texture where you have to really pull with your teeth to break it. I threw it away after 2 bites and I'm gagging thinking of it. This could be a one off, but I'm really bummed about wasting $12 on my one spend day of the week! I have some other little gripes that honestly bring down my old rating too. We bought some stuff from the shop, which is still really cute and offers a lot of local (though very upcharged) stuff. And when we checked out, there's a line for tip! Everyone feels weird leaving a tip line blank, so why is it there! Just to make us feel awkward?!? All they offer to drink is hot coffee or cold brew, everything else is a deli or store or serve yourself food so why even tipping! Just made me and my friend awkward leaving that line blank, made us feel rude but why would we tip for only buying grocery items.

Its cheerful exterior is very inviting, and it features some unusual architecture (it was an old, yet futuristic-looking gas station at one time, apparently). In addition to a basic selection of drinks, snacks and groceries, it has a small deli counter, where you can purchase either deli meats, or made-to-order deli sandwiches, both very reasonably priced. I did see a very small selection of produce immediately to the left of the entrance. The section on the right presently appears to be used for storage (I'm not sure if it used to house a pizza operation mentioned in other reviews?). This market is diagonally across the street from the Modern Diner, another interesting piece of historical architecture. It's cool to see old buildings still around, whether they are being used for their original purpose, or re-purposed.
