New to Cambria and looking for some great sandwiches. Visited Sandy's Deli and got ourselves two sandwiches - turkey sandwich & Italian sandwich. Turkey sandwich was very filling with plenty of meat, cheese & fresh cucumbers. Italian sandwich included black olives and peppercini's. They even have desserts. Had ourselves a slice of carrot cake. Yummy! Would definitely recommend trying Sandy's next time you visit Cambria.

Time for an update! Sandy's Deli is just as fantastic as always. Every time I am in Cambria I make sure I grab a sandwich to go at least one time from Sandy's! My favorite is their build your own option - it is currently $12.25 and they are very generous in terms of not skimping on the meat/cheese. The ingredients are so fresh and the roast beef is nice and rare! Their smoothies are also fantastic! They can get busy at times so I recommend calling in your order ahead if you are pressed for time (sometimes you have to call a few times to get through).

A perfectly adequate sandwich eaten on a very cute bench outside. I was a little disappointed there were no sourdough rolls available at the time (as it is the best bread for a sandwich), but overall a great sandwich.

After a busy morning visiting Hearst Castle, we worked up an appetite. I love supporting small businesses and my daughter pointed out Sandy's as we drove down the charming main street of Cambria. We parked a few blocks away and walked over where the patio was full of patrons enjoying a variety of sandwiches and salads. We decided to eat indoors in the diner which featured some fun 80s tunes along with house music I didn't expect but appreciated. We selected our sandwiches and were treated to some of the best sammies we've enjoyed while roadtripping. My BLT featured shredded lettuce instead of the iceberg leaf and was served on thick sourdough. It was a delicious and filling meal for the long drive ahead.

We were in Cambria and craving a deli sandwich. My husband had the Italian sub and I had the turkey cranberry sandwich. We both agreed that the turkey cranberry sandwich was superior. It was a really great sandwich. I also really enjoyed my iced coffee! It was surprisingly good. The service was easy. You order at the counter and they call your number. They only have one bathroom and we had to wait a really long time. Eventually I think we ended up just going somewhere else to use the restroom.

Wonderful place with delicious sandwiches! They have a restroom for customers that's nice, and the store itself is quaint and beautiful. Their menu design is lovely, readable and accessible. The interior has lots of comfortable seating. I adored the paintings they have displayed and the history of their store in family photos. The staff is nice, and you get good portion sizes for the sandwiches you purchase. They have options for my vegetarian and vegan friends as well which is always wonderful to see. They're also open to making custom orders, like my little sister was with me and she just wanted a grilled cheese, so they agreed to make it for her. Overall a good sandwich shop to visit when you're in the area! I would come back here again.

Stopped by Sandy's Deli & Bakery and enjoyed my BLT sandwich on sourdough with a crispy ice cold fountain soda. Charming indoor and outdoor seating available. A popular small spot but I did not wait long for my food. Service was friendly. A great stop for affordable and casual food in the area!

After a morning of poking around art galleries and pretending we understood abstract sculpture, hunger finally caught up with us. Yelp pointed us to Sandy's Deli & Bakery, boasting a respectable four-star rating - and as fate would have it, it was literally just across the street. Easy decision. Shop front - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQ&select=3vy51T9OK7D_55XbZIzL4g Sandy's is exactly what you'd hope for in a small-town deli: casual, friendly, and no-frills in the best way. The menu features a wide variety of sandwiches, soups, and baked goods - nothing overly fancy, just solid comfort food done right. I ordered the BLT with added cream cheese, and it hit the spot. Fresh bread, quality ingredients, and a generous portion. That said, the bacon felt more like crumbs than actual slices. AR went with the Big Air Avocado Sandwich, and after we swapped bites, I had to admit hers was the better pick. Big Sur Tuna Avocado Sandwich ($13) Photo - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQ&select=nH8GF7CDhwazlbt_JQMFvA BLT w/added cream cheese ($15.50) Photo - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQ&select=PiilZl50NeY9mnLMSdelfg Ice Tea ($3.25) Root Beer ($3.25) Service was quick and efficient. Seating is limited - just a few tables inside and a couple outside. We considered sitting outdoors, but it was slightly overcast and breezy, so we opted to stay warm inside. As we ate, there was a steady flow of patrons coming and going - it seems Sandy's is popular with the locals, not just passing tourists. Would I drive hours just to eat here? No. But if you're already in Cambria and want a reliable, satisfying lunch that doesn't feel like a tourist trap, Sandy's is a solid choice. The sandwiches were a bit on the pricey side, but that's expected in touristy towns - and let's be real, everything is more expensive these days. - Big Aloha Overall raiting: 3 1/2 Stars (Rounding up) Food: 4 Ambiance: 3 Service: 4 Value: 3

good sandwich but a bit too pricey. it's good to try it once but i don't think it's worth the price. service was friendly and quick. place is spacious with lots of seating.

Turkey, Bacon, Cheddar Melt. Sub Sourdough bread and added pickles.

The hot Sandwiches were tasty, fresh, and Big! Ample quality meats and toppings on fresh bread. Recommend you share a sandwich, or plan to take home the other half. My hubby had "The Godfather" sandwich minus the cheese and veggies. Great fresh bread to hold the hearty portion of meats. I had the Turkey, bacon, cheddar melt. I did swap out the croissant with sourdough. The sourdough slices were thick and toasty. Service was quick and friendly. We ate inside due to the chilly January day. Tables inside were clean and well stocked with napkins. Which you will need. We did not try the baked goods...we were stuffed!! Although, they did look good.

Short Review: Full-service deli with a great array of sandwiches, sides, smoothies and other options. Food is really good, and friendly service. Long Review: This place is a Main Street stalwart, and is located a Rios the street from the Shell station. A family-owned spot with really friendly service. It's so nice to see the same people each time you return, and they like seeing you too. They have a wide range of sandwiches, sides, salads, desserts, and smoothies. My favorites are the Hot Pastrami and the Turkey/Bacon/Avocado Club. Very consistently good each time I order. They are usually busy, so I may recommend calling ahead. Ample seating both inside out outdoors, and a great spot for groups. Give 'em a try! read more

My order was $20.15, I only had two $20 bills and asked if he needed to break my other $20 for .15 cents and he said YES!! Bad business!!! It was a sandwich and bag of chips. The sandwich came out too hot, like it had been microwaved !! Could barely finish it. We come to Cambria to visit my parents monthly and will not be returning to Sandy's and hope others find this review helpful. read more

The Godfather sandwich is so freaking good! It has all of the works of deli meats and has the perfect blend of pickled vegetables We took it to eat at Moonstone Park a few minutes away and even though we didn't it hot and fresh out the oven, it was still absolutely delicious. I'll be thinking of this sandwich forever Not to mention, the price was really good! Split the sandwich in half with a potato salad from the market and it was more than enough food read more

We stopped in after hiking the moonstone beach boardwalk All the tables were dirty. I had to ask and then the woman wiped all the empty tables down. My daughter got in line to order for the 4 of us. 2 adults, 2 kids. The kids split a sandwich Amber, my daughter and I split one too. We had a club. I'm not a fan of French bread. It is tasteless and has a cake like texture. They do not have crusty wheat or sour dough rolls. Only French. The bread is made off site and delivered in a pickup truck. We saw the guy delivering it. Tray after tray. French rolls. The club was pretty good, but the cucumber threw it off for me. I took it out. They have kettle chips which are good. I like jalapeño. Ambiance feels like it used to be someone's home. Like small rooms with house windows. There's about 6 tables for 4 Personally o would not be tempted to return. I've had better sandwiches. I prefer jersey mikes. read more

Man that tuna sandwich was totally unexpectedly good. They have carrots cut down to the size of pine nuts, which gives you the illusion that there are nuts in your tuna. I normally add curry to my tuna but this sandwich has totally inspired me to do better! Chai was also really good and perfect for a cold beach morning.

This is the second time in a row I have ordered a turkey club sandwich on a croissant instead of white bread, due to all the veggies causing the white bread to be soggy. Both times I have gotten home and found a soggy wet sandwich on white bread. I called this time to advise of the mistake and was told the order does not state croissant, so I must have not ordered it that way. I'm very disappointed in this sandwich and will not be back! read more

A gem that would be hard to find if you didn't know it was there. The menu is extensive and covers all of the usual deli-fare. Hot and cold sandwiches, soups, salads, and smoothies as well. I had the Italian Sub, and was not disappointed. The bread was soft, and it seemed like it was made in-house. The fresh combination of meats and fresh vegetables were well-balanced. and had me looking forward to the next bite. There is plenty of seating, inside and out, as well as an at-home feeling with quick, courteous service. I am already looking forward to my next visit. read more

Came into Cambria to get gas and saw that Sandy's Deli had some good review for some bakery items so we stopped by. The shop itself is so cute and love that it was easy to park right next to it. We walked in and took a look at their pasty case and decided on the cheesecake brownie but the sandwiches smelled so good that we ended up with a pastrami sandwich as well lol The cheesecake brownie was ok. Was a nice sweet chocolate treat. They toast their rolls fresh and absolutely stuff the sandwich with thinly sliced pastrami. The toasty roll complemented the hot pastrami and Swiss and the veggies and sauces worked really well together. The girl taking our order was friendly and did well considering it was pretty busy. The staff working on the sandwiches all seemed to be pretty happy too which added to the nice ambiance. Prices were reasonable and the location was convenient. Would recommend and would come back again. read more

I had a lovely experience here on the morning of July 4th. The cashier was very patient with me as I decided what I wanted to order and helped me decide between the Italian (cold) and the Godfather (hot). I chose the Italian, but customized it, because I'm a plain Jane lol and it hit the spot. The place was very clean and welcoming and the staff were very friendly. read more

The sandwiches are expensive, dry, and boring. Bread was stale and they put two pieces of bacon on a turkey bacon. Not worth it!! No wonder no one was there...I heard it used to be good. read more

Sandy's is still knocking it out of the ball park when it comes to sandwiches. Today my wife had the Big Sur tuna as usual and I had the Italian sub. Both sandwiches were delicious and plentiful. We are regulars but for good reasons. Just take a look at these two sandwich creations. read more

The server took 2 of our lunch orders and left the 3rd person standing there waiting to place her order, while she prepared a coffee.

Then there was the food, which was okay. We did get a cake slice at the end. All their baked goods are consistently good. We had checked the menu online before we met for lunch, so were very surprised to find no sandwiches, no salads, just breakfast items and bagels.

I've done some comparison shopping in recent weeks, and the cafe wins every time. One place in town prepares "country potatoes" as large cubes of potato with no seasoning. Cambria Cafe cooks prepare them as small cubes, seasoned and fried exactly as I like (I can't define the spice combination, but I like it). My scrambled eggs are never dry or runny, and hash browns invariably have just the right crisp texture. They also serve really good coffee, something which most restaurants can't seem to manage. This morning I tried their chicken-fried steak for the first time, and it was as good as my wife's, which is saying something. The ambiance is what I'd expect from a small local cafe, comfortable, but not extraordinary. I'll continue to patronize "my" cafe as long as they'll have me.

So glad we visited Sandy's Deli today in Cambria! It's a place we have passed by so many times, which I absolutely regret. This is place is no frills and all flavor. You order at the counter and wait for your number to be called. The first sandwich that caught our eye was the Godfather, and Arian at the counter told us it was his favorite and recommended it. He did not let us down! The bread was fresh baked (still warm!) and the ingredients were great, including Italian meats, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, and melted cheese. It comes with a generous about of condiments including yellow mustard so now that going in if mustard is not your thing (it is definitely MY thing). We asked about the soup of the day, which was chicken tortilla. The soup was piping hot and stayed hot the whole time we ate it and was so flavorful, full of fresh ingredients, and not greasy or heavy. A nice portion of tortilla chips came with and were a great addition. My wife and I shared both of these on a quick Saturday visit to Cambria and could not believe we have been missing out for so many years on this beautiful little deli and bakery. The patio area seating was nice and shaded for us to enjoy our meal. The service was so friendly and fast, we can't wait until our next day trip to Cambria to try more of their food. We were so impressed with our first visit! read more
