If I can do negative stars I would . So completely disappointed in you , John Maple St. Deli has been a huge disappointment, especially considering it's within walking distance of my home. It's a quaint neighborhood deli with over 100 years of history, which is why I kept giving it chance after chance. I've ordered from this deli many times. They have frequently gotten my order wrong, but I never complained. I simply accepted it and moved on. On Father's Day, I ordered three egg sandwiches around 10:00 a.m. I arrived at 10:30 to pick them up and still waited another 15 minutes. After spending about $35, the order was wrong. Again, I let it go. Today was the final straw. I ordered two egg sandwiches and a small deli iced tea for delivery. The total was $33 before tip. The owner, John, delivered the order himself. He rang my Ring doorbell twice but never knocked. We completed the exchange without issue. When I opened the bag, the order was wrong--again. I called and politely asked to speak with the owner. I explained that my order had been made incorrectly. Instead of trying to resolve the issue, John hung up on me. I called back three more times, and each time either he or his staff hung up on me. I drove to the deli to speak with him face-to-face. His response was simply, "That's unfortunate," and he refused to remake the sandwiches or offer any refund or solution. Everyone makes mistakes. What separates a good business from a bad one is how those mistakes are handled. I wasn't angry about an incorrect sandwich--I was shocked by the complete lack of customer service, accountability, and basic respect. After years of overlooking mistakes and trying to support a local business, this experience has guaranteed I will never return. There are plenty of delis that appreciate their customers and stand behind their service. Unfortunately, Maple St. Deli isn't one of them. read more

The owner has some attitude. They are way overpriced. Their sandwiches are subpar orders are often incorrect and then when you call to complain, the owner hangs up on you. read more

Chicken noodle soup is goood the place looks cute inside a small little deli located in a town

Recently changed owners. The new owner had one of the best bagel places on Long Island ,Bagelicious in East Meadow. They catered the party I attended. Heroes were amazing, and literaly the best potato salad I have had , since 1999. The year I moved. Thinly sliced and just delicious. My wife and I stopped in on our way to McCarther Airport. We were greeted by 2 very nice counter workers. We both ordered different roast beef subs. And potatoe salad with bacon. My sandwich was the munchie. A staple at Bagelicious. Plenty of meat on both . We ate half our sandwiches at the outside table, and finished the other half at the airport. If we move back to Long Island, I would get a sandwich , every weekend. read more

Maple Street Deli - Delis Near Me - Islip, New York

This is the second I tired out the deli before reviewing. I'm really not sure how a deli does not have grilled chicken, that seems like something standard to offer for sandwiches and wraps. I had thought maybe they just ran out the first time I went, so when I went back a month later, to my surprise, they still didn't have that. I was able to get fried chicken cutlet instead, which isn't what I truly wanted as I am trying to eat better, but it was good, just not what I had wanted. They did not have whole wheat wraps, the did not have avocado and they did not have chipotle mayo. I really struck out on this deli. I had also ordered a sausage egg and cheese which was good, but the bagel was just ok. It's truly been an issue finding a good deli around Bay Shore. read more

Maple Street Deli - Chicken salad on a roll, chips and coleslaw - Delis Near Me - Islip, New York

Visiting our daughter in the local area and on the way back to the airport we decided to stop here and pick up some food for the plane ride. I also called to make sure they had bagels to take back and they held them for me. The owner was so nice and the service was top notch. I had the best BLT on a roll that I have ever had. It was perfect! Also took home a cinnamon roll and coffee cake. Everything was fresh and delicious. I highly recommend and I will definitely be making this one of my to go to spots when in town. read more

I haven't been to Kleiber's since the new owner took over- until this wknd. I ordered a 3 ft italian/american hero for a party. The owner was very pleasant while taking my order and didn't try to upsell me, instead he offered to cut the slices thinner to make the hero last longer. Additionally, the hero included a pound of potato, macaroni, and slaw and a pickle/olive platter. The hero was circular and presented a veggie flower. It was a very nice looking hero, and all the food tasted fresh and delicious. Def recommended! read more

This place is so clean and yummy! I would've never found this place if it wasn't for Yelp. I will def return!

Best deli in the area, hands down, zero competition. Don't waste your time going elsewhere! Quick and friendly service offering absolutely delicious sandwiches and heroes. I've never had an order with an error! Trust the locals: THIS is the best deli! read more

I have been going here for years because of the quality of food. Best sandwiches in all of Islip. I am moving to Sayville, but will still come back to Kleibers. It has gone through a wonderful transformation since the new owner took over, he is well liked and has a great staff. This place is a definite winner. read more

Love their heroes. They have good potato salad. Rolls and hero bread is tasty with good texture.

Flounder sandwich prepared and cooked to perfection. Exceptional service as well. It's not on Main Street. Go find this little gem. Family owned by the way! read more

You see, I can be fair, even when I feel something wasn't right. I was looking for a friend's house when I found "Kleiber's Delicatessen." It's supposedly a historical location so I felt, legendary food must be served there. I don't know how I came to that conclusion, but it was a excuse to eat nevertheless. I pulled up to the curb and gingerly made my approach because the weather was great. Inside was nothing special, just your normal prototypical deli. The menu was pretty standard as well. I asked the gentleman if they accepted debit and he said "Yes! But there's a seven dollar minimum." That to me is the biggest turnoff. You make paying customers have to buy more than they want because you apply a minimum. Let's call this what it really is, it's a business not wanting to lose money on swipe charges so they make sure you spend if you're going to use your card. Back to the review. I asked for a turkey sandwich with cheddar and tomatoes. I asked for bacon and he told me he would have to charge two dollars extra for the bacon. I thought to myself, that doesn't make sense, there are items on the menu with bacon that cost less. I should have ordered a turkey BLT and asked for cheddar to save money. I didn't want to be difficult so I just ran with it. My drink plus meal came out to twelve plus dollars. The price wasn't that bad, but doesn't mean I like to waste money. Once I got my food I went to my car to eat. I must say, the sandwich was delicious. It was thick with turkey and bacon. The roll was soft and fresh, and he used just enough mayo. So I wasn't completely mad regarding the two dollar bacon. See like i said, fair, I gave them four stars instead of the three I believed it deserved at the time. But next time I go, and there will be a next time, I will order of the menu board and just ask for cheese. read more

We came here a year ago and havnt stopped thinking about their sandwiches since, one year later and it's just as amazing. The service is great also, workers are kind and were cracking jokes with us! their store has a great variety and none of their sandwich's seem to fail. Highly recommend. read more

Best chicken salad on the island! Love that they are open later than most delis which is super convenient!

Great spot that I accidentally found while Pokémon searching. I've been going for years to Islip Beach and I never knew it existed. Parking is a bit of a hassle because it's in a residential area but the great service is well worth it! read more

Unpretentious, with friendly service and quality sandwiches, Kleiber's has all the marks of an old school quality deli, well because it is. Tucked away in a residential neighborhood just south of Main street, this deli was packed on an early Saturday morning. The deli is so unassuming that you would drive right by if it weren't for the extra parked cars on the street. We had an egg sandwich and a BLT and both were excellent. The store also has all the items you might need while running home- almost like a mini general store. If you are in the area and looking for a quality egg sandwich Kleiber's blows the local bagel shops out of the water. read more

Maple Street Deli - Best Chicken Cutlet hero I've ever had! - Delis Near Me - Islip, New York

Price gouging during these hard times, as well as very rude owner who has 0 patience. Have been coming here forever due to its location from my house... but will NOT be returning. Islip county deli up the road is the letter choice with fresher ingredients. read more

So far I've only tried a good ol' bacon egg and cheese and a roast beef sandwich (called the "Bilge Pump) from here. The place looks like it's kept very clean. I like my eggs scrambled and they were perfectly done. The bacon was dead on. Not terribly crispy, but not undercooked. The roll the sandwich was served on was very fresh. Overall, it was a great sandwich. A little pricey ($6?) or so, but when in Rome.... Now. Let's talk about the "Bilge Pump" sandwich: I specified VERY thin sliced roast beef, on a garlic bread type hero with gravy and mozzarella. Pretty rub of the mill sandwich. The roast beef was perfect. I mean PERFECT. Cooked just right. And sliced just how I like it. This sandwich was STUFFED and it tasted phenomenal. This type of sandwich is my go-to, and the sandwich here at Kleiber's did not disappoint. It was the best I've ever had. The garlic bread was just garlic-y enough and the gravy was just salty enough. Incredible. The sandwich set me back $12.50 (ouch) but I think it was well worth it. The staff is always super efficient and pleasant. The deli is definitely a little out of the way, but if you're nearby it's worth a visit. No tables to sit at (in the winter. Maybe they put some out in the summer?) and no parking, on the street only. read more

After my usual BEC deli closed in Bay Shore, I was out to find a new place for a breakfast sandwich. Kleiber's did not disappoint. A deli, hidden off the beaten path in Islip, the staff was super friendly and the options were simple and great for a quick breakfast or lunch! read more

Little deli on residential area. Always called Little Red Demi because it was red growing up here. The best fried egg on a roll. Have to stop there for one every time back on the Island. Great generous sandwiches with daily specials. Nice hot soups too. Has a little bit of everything. Worth the stop. Street parking. Open 7 days a week read more

This is a small deli. They only make sandwiches for breakfast/lunch. They don't have much of a selection of bagels. I came on a Sunday morning and they only had two types of bagels (sesame and poppy). They also had about 4 bagels total. My breakfast sandwich was good but nothing to brag about. read more

Love that I can call in my order and ready in minutes. Delicious sandwiches.. huge too. No more waiting in deli lines for cold cuts cut too thick! Very happy here read more

It's a good old school no frills deli, good heavy sandwiches-But it's nothing to rave home about. Very Limited selection of cold cuts, no prosciutto- also no grilled chicken. Older woman who works there seems to very unhappy and not want to be bothered. Chicken Cutlets were pretty good- freshly deep fried, but i believe that they were the pre-breaded frozen ones from Restaurants Depot. Overall I would recommend it- but wouldn't go out of my way to go here. read more

Thank god! Care and affection put into the sandwich! Reminded me of manhattan style hero.

Buried in the backstreets of Islip is this landmark deli. Generations of kids venturing out on their bikes have made the trek to Kleiber's a right of passage. A retro venue, part general store, part candy store, part classic old school breakfast and lunch delicatessen. The kind of neighborhood place where the regulars walk in and the deli clerks ask, "The usual?" The staff is young and energetic, the current crew having been there for several years. You won't find an exquisite salad case or exotic lunch creations, just a limited variety of on-site made, fresh classic deli salads and only Boar's Head meats. No generic "deli" ham, etc. The breakfast and lunch sandwiches are a great value for what you get compared to other delis. I've sent trades people working for me there and to a person they rave about the quality and portion size of the food. Probably the best self service coffee for miles. The eponymous owner is present 7 days a week for breakfast and lunch. He's been a local deli owner for three decades with more than 20 years at this spot. Like many sole proprietors of small businesses he's got his own way of doing things. His name is on the marquee and he's ultimately responsible for the quality of his product. From long time observation I can tell that his passion is delivering food to perfection. If you're in the neighborhood stop in and check it out. read more

Maple Street Deli - Breakfast at Kleiber's. Best egg sandwich in Islip! - Delis Near Me - Islip, New York

Not sure why this is 5 starred so much. Pretty average deli. Certainly nothing outstanding, but nothing wrong either.

Ordered the Breakfast hero "hearty." It was like angels opened the clouds and heaven came down in the form of a breakfast hero. Awesome tasting, definitely for anyone who's a fan of a hungry man type breakfast sandwich. read more

Best breakfast sandwich around...Im so happy i went on yelp this morning to look around for where to get a good Sausage Egg & Chz cuz ill most likely be hitting this place up again and again before i head back to Florida... read more

I go here almost every other day trying something new and nearly every time the sandwiches are great. The chicken nuggets are to die for!!

Big fan of Kleiber's. Giant sandwiches, real butter, perfectly cooked roast beef, high quality cold cuts, great staff. My go to place for beach breakfast and lunch. Two people can share one hero. If you call in a sandwich for the beach and ask to pack it for the beach, they'll do a nice job for you. I usually get the Italian sub but I've gotten other sandwiches there including breakfast sandwiches, BLT, roast beef, bologna and buttered bagels (from Bagel Boss). All delicious. I haven't had a bad experience at Kleinbers. Oh, and it's very conveniently located for me. read more
