Firstly, it is impressively clean inside this establishment. Like, extraordinarily clean. The floors, the fixtures, everywhere you'd expect to see dust or evidence of cooking/eating, there is none. The building, outside and inside, is absolutely beautiful. We were asked if we'd been in before (we had not,) and we were offered samples of each of their signature cold drinks. Each one was delicious, it was hard to choose, but we decided on the hibiscus deli cooler and iced dandy blend. The sandwiches are made on fresh, store baked bread, and served warm. They were also delicious. The gentlemen/ staff we encountered were each very friendly, polite, and welcoming.

They have a 2nd floor which can accommodate a large group.

What a sweet surprise walking up the stairs to this beautiful restaurant in Hamburg. We were met by a veteran staff and given a brief history of the yellow deli. We sampled some teas and a turkey stew. The food was very well prepared and delicious and even though we didn't have room for dessert, there was quite a selection. The yellow deli serves as best that they can, the freshest of ingredients and flavorful as well. A must go to in Hamburg NY, a place where you are greeted by comforts of home.

I found The Yellow Deli in Hamburg, NY on Christmas Day 2024 and I'm here again on Christmas Day 2025. My wife had died three months earlier and after visiting her grave at the cemetery in Hamburg I was looking for a coffee shop to relax around noon. The only place open was The Yellow Deli at 327 Buffalo Street and the second I walked in I knew I was in the right place. Being a deeply spiritual person I was intrigued by this line on the cover of their menu, "We serve the fruit of the Spirit. Why not ask?" So I did and I was beyond overwhelmed by the people who operate this amazing restaurant at cafe and by their Christian beliefs. I love their story and what they stand for. The Fresh Green Mate was to die for and it was so good I purchased a brick and use it nearly day. The Bristol Fillet with the wild Alaskan Sslmon was the best as were their soups, which I have every time I visit. It's a great restaurant, kitchen staff is superb and the people are top quality. I have and will continue to return.

I grew up in Southern California and went to the Yellow Deli in my hometown very frequently in my college years. And to my surprise, they opened this new location recently, and I was ecstatic! Wonderful team, very friendly, all staff was greeting me as they passed by. My waitress did a wonderful job, even let me sit at their trademark chair on the bar! Food was marvelous, reminded me of the same great taste from my younger years! Deli Rose is a great taste of great meats and fresh vegis on homemade bread and fresh chips. And their chili hit the spot on a cold winter day! Absolutely would be coming back more often! If you haven't seen this place before, highly recommend it! Especially during the spring/summer days when their patio is open!

The owners of the restaurant aside, I have to say this is a pretty wonderful little deli. The inside is made entirely of wood and feels like a fairy tale. Everything is really just so cute. All of their homemade drinks are really delicious. The food is also fantastic. I recommend the deli rose, village gobbler, and Buffalo blazer. All have been delicious. The muffins with a daily featured flavor are really tasty too.

Don't even get me started on the chili -- hearty, flavorful, and perfectly paired with their fresh-baked bread.

I ordered an egg breakfast sandwich with home fries and an apple juice, which came out to about $25. While the food itself was a bit on the bland side and felt a little limited for the price, the ambiance really stands out. It's a great place to catch up with friends or family over brunch and enjoy a warm, welcoming vibe. Not somewhere I'd go out of my way to revisit, but I'm glad I stopped in and appreciated the atmosphere.

Here's where it all fell down. After placing my order, I turned my back, reading the menu. Then I heard the microwave "ding" and saw my pain au chocolat removed. Really?? (I once had a Cordon Bleu-trained pastry chef explain that croissants should never be re-heated because it ruins the scaffolding of the butter/flour feuille, or "sheets"). I then tried the various seats in the Danish-style cafe. Stool? No love: They're metal and lack cushions. Chairs at the tables were also metal. I settled in an honest-to-God church pew: The kind the Puritans used, to reflect upon their sins. Do yourself a favor and get your treats to go.

Headed to the counter and showed the app, they said have a seat we'll get your bag ready. The place is cute inside kinda homey with little kiosk with stuff for sale. She brought my bag over and had a cup for coffee. She let me to the coffee station & I had the coffee of the day. I normally don't drink flavored coffee but it was real good, a nutty and creamy flavor combined. My bag had a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup and slice of blueberry crumble pie. The table by me had sandwiches that looked good, will definitely be back.

Stopped in after my haircut at cortos since they share the same parking lot. I frequent this place…read moreregularly I just haven't gotten a chance to post a review yet. For those who have never been, there's two entry points; the front (from the street), is wheelchair friendly, while the back (from the parking lot) has some stairs. There are two single bathrooms available in this place. If you're dining in, you can order at the counter and they'll bring the food to your table. Regardless you need to order at the counter anyway. They always have a great selection of baked goods and coffee, plus specialty drinks on rotation. They offer light breakfast and lunch if you don't want just a coffee and pastry. They sell gifts and ground/bean coffee along with flavored syrups. For this particular trip, I ventured in to get lavender syrup (Torani). I treated myself to a specialty rotating drink (Hansel and Gretel frozen coffee - frozen coffee with gingerbread and white chocolate). I also purchased a blueberry muffin and a pumpkin cream cheese muffin (also a rotation dessert specialty). All were excellent, as par for course here. I don't hear at all but speak well, so the kind lady at the front grabbed a pad and writing utensil to communicate with me, which was very helpful and so we both were on the same page. It was very appreciated. Another reason I love this place, they're so accommodating

We are OBSESSED with this bakery right now! The place is adorable, plenty of parking, SUPER busy…read morebut luckily we got there right after they opened and everything is delicious! We tried the breakfast sandwich and it was great and different than most places with the sesame roll. We also tried the croissants and they had the best flavor and texture and better than any we have ever had. The best was the sour dough loaf that we took home for dinner and it was the first time there wasn't even a crumb left! It was hands down the best sour dough! They sure know what they are doing here and you need to try it!

Crossing the…read morethreshold, the aroma of yeast and warm cinnamon hit me, and something else I couldn't quite put my finger on. When I looked at the display case, it became clear: Sourdough! I'd never before seen sourdough croissants or cheese danishes; there's an abundance of gorgeous loaves/boules for sale. (Cheese fondue supplies! Yes!!). A baker's rack to the right sells day-old bread at discounted prices (make your own croutons!) I opted for an almond (sourdough) croissant and a small coffee; I was asked if I wanted a mug or a to go cup? I was given a beautiful glazed mug - very charming! Two things worth mentioning: There's a small seating area downstairs, and five large tables upstairs. The stairs? A polite way of describing them is, "grandfathered-in". The rise/run makes it difficult to navigate if you're in thick boots, carrying a child, or have stiff knees. The pastry had a beautiful crunch. I enjoyed the almond flavor. And then I found: cherry preserves? I'm aware that "croissant et confiture" (eaten with jam) is a standard French breakfast, but it did change the mouth feel of the treat. I'd recommend this place to anyone wanting to try something earthier and beautifully executed.
