Great Cuban sandwich!! Great location and service. The price was reasonable and the location was clean.

This used to be a great place for lunch but since the new owners have taken over there has been cost cutting left and right. Quality has gone down bad. They tell you to order online to avoid the wait but you are still going to have to wait for everyone else to place their orders before getting yours. Just not the same place it used to be and that's sad. read more

Food was terrible and cold soup. Girl behind counter was rude and kept touching her face. Didnt see her wash her hands...yuck

This is the best cuban sandwich I've had in Clearwater so far! Fast service and reasonable prices too!

Doesn't look much when you past it but please do not miss an opportunity to try this little place. We stopped here after a long 4 hour drive and didn't know what to expect. They have boars meat which is quality stuff. I ordered the chicken Philly and it was one of the best I've ever had. The portions were manageable and reasonable. The chicken was tasty and didn't taste funky. It was just amazing. My aunt who had their Lightning BLT special was amazed at how good her sandwich was- she ate the whole thing. It was fantastic. The staff were all very friendly too and the chef/manager. Great all around! read more

Ordered to pick up the Cafe Beef sandwich. Not sure what happened to the quality, I know it's Boar's Head brand but it never was this small! For a $13 sandwich with no chips or soup, not worth it. read more

Came to the shop at 1:15pm to get a BLT Croissant, blueberry muffin, and coffee, $16.04. While waiting I went to get my coffee and it was only half cup left plus not to mention the coffee was already cold, I asked the waitress if they would make more and she said no as they are closing at two and didn't offer no refund or something else in exchange. Food was good, service not so much. Ambiance was calm with soft music in the background and not crowded. read more

The Local Deli - a sandwich and a cup of coffee - Cafes Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

My office recently relocated and The Local Deli has quickly become a go to lunch spot. So many items to choose from, really they have something for everyone, from soups, salads, sandwiches, wraps. We have been enjoying the BLT and turkey wraps and and all the daily soups, chili being my favorite. Everything is made to order and totally customizable. Looking forward to trying the breakfast menu. read more

The Local Deli offers a variety sandwiches, salads, and soups. I like that they offer specials throughout the week to make lunch a little more affordable. The specials are usually around $10 and include a side item and a drink. If you want a full meal that isn't on special you're looking at around $14-16. The sandwiches are fine. The meat/cheese is a good quality and most of the bread is good. They don't seem to take kindly to substitutions so if you're particular you may want to build a sandwich from scratch. The sides to choose from are potato salad (quite dry), pasta salad (extremely dry), cole slaw, chips or pickles. The pickles are good but almost seems weird to order 3 pickle spears as your side. They typically have 3 soups to choose from each day. I've only tried the chicken pot pie soup which basically tastes like the inside of a chicken pot pie. I would have loved a piece of puff pastry on top for the full chicken pot pie effect. They have a variety of soft drinks and offer sweet and unsweetened tea as well. read more

The Local Deli - a bagel sandwich with bacon and potatoes - Cafes Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

I ordered online. I had to stand in a long line when I got there anyway. there's a sign there that states "Avoid the line, order online." That is not at all true with that place! read more

I have to say, I'm an easy sell when it comes to local delis like this one. Serving up fresh Boar's Head meats, my sandwich was fantastic and hot the spot! You can choose from a variety of different types of sandwiches or go rogue and create your own. In typical deli fashion they also have soups and salads. The meat on my custom built sandwich was stacked high! The service was friendly and prompt. First time check ins on Yelp gets you a free combo! read more

The Local Deli - Piled high Boars Head turkey sandwich. Delicious! - Cafes Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

Not my favorite food , but a cute little cafe that seemed like a popular lunch time spot! I had a breakfast burrito that was soggy and a bit boring in the morning, then a southwest salad for lunch that was much better. Their to-go timing was good, but I didn't stay around for much else. read more

We had a turkey sandwich and pastrami sandwich. They were fine. Not particularly good value.

Excellent!! I have had the Citrus Turkey Sandwich & Southwest Salad. Both were packed with flavor. The employees are very helpful and knowledgeable on the selections, also very friendly. Everything is fresh made on the spot and it's reflected in the taste! Definitely give this one a try! read more

Awesome deli! I got a Gyro combo and the Gyro was fantastic. Meat was piled on like crazy and the pita was delicious. It was the special of the day as well so giant gyro, side, and a drink was all only $8!! Hard to beat that. Will definitely be coming back to try the other sandwiches soon. PS the chocolate chip cookies are the bomb as well read more

I'm a business traveler, and the office I'm visiting is close to this restaurant. I ordered the combo special-half sandwich and soup. I decided to go with salami and ham on my sandwich and chilli for the soup. The sandwich was great! Lots of meats and veggies, so was very pleased. The chilli wasn't my cup of tea. It didnt have as much meat in it as I'm used to. The shop is clean and the workers were very nice. Soup and sandwich combo was $9.35, which I feel was good for the amount of food I got. read more

I ordered from The Local through BiteSquad after first calling the restaurant to see what type of soup they had available. I was told they had clam chowder and chili and then I immediately placed an order for clam chowder. I am not a fan of chili, so when I received my order and found a cup of chili I called BiteSquad to tell them they delivered the wrong soup. BiteSquad refused to do anything about it because they blamed the restaurant for making a replacement without consulting them. Then I called The Local back and the women who answered (who was the same person I previously spoke with) told me they ran out of clam chowder before they prepped my order and when I expressed I didn't want the chili she repeatedly said "I don't know what I can do about it". My issue was with both companies, but I was really taken aback by The Local's complete lack of customer service. She truly couldn't have cared less.This was disappointing and frustrating. read more

Today I tried the Cuban Sandwich. I was very surprised, the sandwich was a good size portion. It had to be probably one of the best Cuban Sandwiches I have had in a long time. Good job... I will be back. read more

GREAT place! VETERANS WELCOME! Local musicians play at MUGGS in same plaza. Comfortable relaxed atmosphere! Friendly Management and staff.

I've been coming here for close to a year now and have explored the menu as well! Everything thing I've had has been delicious. Love this place! read more

First time here. Ordered the cheesesteak. It wasn't that great and it was small for what you pay for. Maybe order something else if you decide to eat here cause the cheesesteak ain't it. read more

This place is awesome. The staff are friendly. The sandwiches are great. It's clean and fast. I ordered a teriyaki sandwich and it was huge. I added Chipotle gouda cheese and bacon and it was delicious! Just a hint of sweet and good amount of spice. Can't wait to try the breakfast. Will definitely come back for the sandwich. read more

Food is good. Blonde lady was rude and very unprofessional. I will never go back because of her single handedly.

Used for catering for our board meeting. Great service arrived right on time. Food was excellent

Amazing service and food! Thank you for accommodating and feeding our hockey team! Top notch.

I just recently moved my office into a complex across the street. We tried the other two restaurants (bars really) that are near the office they're ok but then we stumbled upon this deli. Boy am I glad we did. We've been back once a week since. The sandwiches are great. I like the Greek salad. As a vegetarian I love that they have several veggie options. The staff is nice and friendly. The prices are great! We will keep going weekly. And do try one of the peanut butter cup cookies! Such a treat! read more

Nice place, nice sandwiches, specially the Italian one ! I love this place for my lunch ! Appreciate to have more choice for the breakfast.... read more

The absolute worst customer serviced by the MANAGER ever. She tried to chastize me and humiliate me all becuase THEY screwed up my order. I did NOT want my money back I just wanted what I ordered. What I received I would not have eaten and did not eat. I will never go back to this place again. My company does a lot of buisness and I will advise HR and the rest of my Executive team to order somewhere else. This is not the first or second time we have had an issue with this place, but I promise it will be the LAST time. read more

The Cuban is outstanding! Doesn't look like much from outside, but definitely worth stopping in for lunch.

Been wanting to try this place since it always seems packed. Not sure why though... finally ordered and don't waste your money. I spent 16 bucks for a smushed soggy half of a sandwich, cup of soup and pasta salad. The girl at the front was so rude. Forgot my soup, good thing I checked and she was so annoyed I asked for it. Then when she handed it to me I said thank you and she completely ignored me. Not to mention the pasta salad was brown? I won't be back, save your money. read more

When visiting from out of town we always like to find local spots like this. My son was playing hockey down the street. We had 40mim to spare before the game. They had just opened for the morning so we stopped by for breakfast and coffee. It took a full 30min to get our breakfast sandwiches. There was no one else in there! Mind you, they were handmade to order, deli ham shaved, eggs cooked to order - but it was by no means quick and frankly took much longer than it should have. The three people working there were in no hurry. The croissant was day old and not substantial to hold the sandwich it was offered with. My daughter had a bagel sandwich with egggs, chEese and sausage and it was as expected. When not in any hurry, if you are looking for leisurely place to have coffee/sandwich a bit off the beaten path, you be be happy here. read more

Just stopped by and got a sandwich called The Godfather. It was delicious. Loved the bread, loved everything about it. Will definitely be going back! read more

Food was amazing. I got a combo half sandwich and soup during my lunch break. Chili and hot pressed sandwich. Will be back for sure

Super friendly staff and good food. I ordered the avocado toast and a side of hash browns. Both were yummy and a good portion for the price. Clean restaurant and overall great quality. read more

I've ordered here a few times and everything is pretty good. The staff are very friendly and the service is fast. Just a couple of critiques: I got a BLT today and like the chicken salad I ordered a few weeks ago, there was more lettuce than anything. Only 3 pieces of bacon. For $7.50, I would like to get less lettuce and a bit more meat. And also for that price a nice touch would be to include a pickle or maybe a small side or chips. They gave me a card, after 10 I get one free! That's a plus! I'll be back because it is withing walking distance of my office. read more

I ordered the Italian. Now it is my fault for not paying attention to the fact that it came with mozzarella cheese -- but really? Mozzarella on an Italian, who does that? Swiss or Provolone -- period. If only that was the worst of it. They say they uses Boars Head meat, I'm not so sure -- it was DRY, and I mean really dry. Maybe it had just been in the freezer a long time, but they only opened a week or so ago. The lettuce was something you would expect from Burger King. The tomatoes were just laying on top of the sandwich. The only redeeming quality of the sandwich was the bread. It was fresh, and cooked very well. read more

This is becoming my go to lunch stop. Great sandwiches whether they are cold or hot. Their Cuban sandwich is surprisingly one of the best I ever had. Friendly and hardworking staff. read more

AMAZING FOOD AND SERVICE!! I work right next to The Local Deli, so I go here quite frequently. They have one of the best Greek Salads I've ever tried. I also get the Chicken Salad Sandwich, it's amazing! The bread is always fresh! I love Publix subs but the Loval Deli has them beat, in my book. The employees are amazing as well always polite with a smile on their face. Would recommend that if you order from here, order on the website. Support local businesses! read more

I was in the mood for a sandwich so I tried out this new place called The Local Deli. I asked what's the best and they recommended The Godfather. It was delicious! You can taste the good quality boars head meat! I also got the combo with potato salad which was really good. read more
