Pretty good sandwiches, and great selection of crafts beer with some hard to find brews available on tap!!

This place has amazing customer service. Their online ordering wasn't working so i decided to just give them a call. Order was ready as soon as I arrived. Food was great! Their sandwiches come in 3 sizes. So make sure you have an appetite because you will get your money's worth. I highly recommend this place. read more

Uncle Henry's Deli - The Big B Sandwich - Delis Near Me - Downey, California

Tried this place because a friend said this place had a really good Pastrami sandwich. Called and ordered exactly that. Their Pastrami sandwich consisted of mustard, pickles on rye bread. Wasn't super huge but was definitely good enough for one. The Pastrami was flavorful and not a bunch of fat either. Me being a mustard lover, particularly liked the mustard they used. The place isn't a huge spot but there is a good amount of seating, but everything is pretty compact. The best part of this place was the beer selection. They had a substantial amount of beer on tap and you could even purchase beer bottles / cans to go! Would definitely be coming back to enjoy some beers on tap. read more

Great sandwiches. Enjoy the sandwiches every time I order to eat in or takeout. Good bread meat with nice amounts of condiments And other toppings. read more

Sandwiches are great especially the pastrami with the dip Omg. I would definitely eat here again I'm getting hungry just thinking about this place. 10 out of 10 read more

Very good deli style sandwiches. I tried an Italian and a turkey one that came with bacon. Both were very good.

Five stars, hands down. Best deli sandwich in town and the best part is the HUGE variety of beer taps. So many (see my pic). Just heavenly. From the outside this place looks like a bar in a strip mall, but it's nothing like that. A total "hidden gem", so awesome! Oh and I got the "whimpy" sized sandwich and it was huge! Great menu, great atmosphere, great beer choices! And you can find rare bottle's of beer here (added bonus)!!! read more

Uncle Henry's Deli - Beer selection is awesome. - Delis Near Me - Downey, California

Best selection of beer in Downey! They have a good 100 craft beers on tap. The food here is great as well. I usually get the turkey bacon avocado. It is so yummy. The Italian stallion is great as well. The pickles are so so good too. And for dessert you can't go wrong with the chocolate chip cookies. And the guys that work here are super friendly. So lucky to have this amazing small little piece of Downey history here. read more

Yess definitely recommend this location. The food is really good has a variety of everything.

High quality sandwiches. Delicious and good size sandwiches made to your liking. (Bread, condiments, etc) Also nice brews. Never been disappointed here. A lot of variety for different sandwich types. I usually do the pastrami or blt or btlt and touch it up depending how I'm feeling...they also do veggie sand. Which I tried and are great too. A must try when in Downey. read more

Location is small and intimate but it works in their favor because they give great attention to their customers. I came in with a group that was for the most part unsure of what types of beers they like and the staff was so attentive and keen on what nodes/ flavors they enjoyed. In the end we had a few beers and none disappointing us. I was just so happy they carried a few stouts on tap because that is quite rare for LA where everyone enjoys IPAs. Another plus is the Deli that is attached in the same space. Although I did not order one, I hear they're pretty darn good. *Don't be afraid to ask to try the beers! read more

This place is amazing.Great service,awesome sandwiches & a wide variety of craft beer.And they close late which is good for people like me that crave for a good sandwich after work. read more

Uncle Henry's Deli - The Italian Stallion Sandwich.I don't drink beer anymore so I had a Tastea drink instead. - Delis Near Me - Downey, California

A little hidden spot that's been here in downey for over 30 years, Uncle Henry's is a local gem. With its origin as a butchery, turned deli, turned full service sandwich and craft beer shop, Uncle Henry's Deli uses the highest quality meats and they don't hold back on the portions. To help wash down your sandwich, be ready for a full wall of craft beers: ales, ciders, lagers, belgiums and IPA's. The owner George makes every experience a great one. Highly recommended stop, you won't be disappointed! read more

Uncle Henry's Deli - The Hot Pastrami melts in your mouth... - Delis Near Me - Downey, California

Uncle Henry's Deli? So misleading. This is a craft beer bar with really mediocre food. It is laughable that they call themselves a deli. If they didn't serve beer, they'd be outta business in a month. No restaurant/deli would ever survive with the charade they are pulling here. In short, I should've stayed home and microwaved my own meal. How can any self respecting restaurant openly use microwaves on everything? Ordered a beef dip sandwich and got about 4oz of paper thin slices of shriveled lunch meat. Should've suspected this place was garbage when I see the "line cooks" with about as much professionalism as spoiled teenagers addicted to their phones. They move at a snails pace, are not happy to be there, let alone have a job, and they have almost no skill. (They can still ring an order and take your money) The fact that his dump has 4+ stars goes to show how Yelp is flawed. Its credibility definitely takes a hit when places like this get good reviews. Either the reviews are completely bogus (ie friends/family) or the people of Downey don't know what a decent deli is. SMH ...The chill is good though read more

Some of the best Deli Sandwiches around. I've been frequenting this place for a while now and the food continues to impress. Good food, great atmosphere, and plenty of BEER on tap!! Kinda pricey but for what you get and the atmosphere we are willing to pay. This small place packs a big punch. Stop on in and you won't be disappointed. I haven't tried the whole menu just yet, but haven't been disappointed with anything we have tried either. The Pastrami is my go to. Honorable Mention: Best Deli Sandwiches around read more

Uncle Henry's Deli - Beef Dip and Pastrami...both D-Lish! - Delis Near Me - Downey, California

Great sandwich deli spot in Downey. Really fresh, and tasty. Highly recommend the Ruben on sourdough. But you pretty much can't go wrong with any of their sandwiches. read more

This little gem was the first for my boyfriend and me. He lives around the corner and has for more than 10 years, and he never stopped by til tonight. The sandwiches were delicious, the flights were tasteful, and over all a great experience. One thing I can probably point out is that it's really loud and crowded. But it was worth it read more

Have visited Uncle Henry's every two weeks or ten days for the last five years, or so. I wouldn't call myself a regular because the bar staff typically leaves me alone to eat, and I repay the favor by keeping to myself, staying quiet, and listening to all the political rhetoric that is spewed by the owner and his bar staff. This place caters to a certain demographic, white or white washed, the owner and bar staff are really nice and friendly with their acquaintances, white, but if you are not one of their friends or acquaintances, white, don't cross that line buddy. They will serve anyone that walks up, regardless of color or race, fair enough, but the service will be really really slow, and the food will be far below par. I have sat there for an hour or so (pre-covid) and have carefully watched who this deli/bar is catering to, and the different treatments towards latinos, blacks, and whites. Elephant in the room you say? Yes, huge elephant in the room. This deli/bar is a place where you order your food, and typically see and overhear all types of political rhetoric and racist nonsense that are virtually unseen and unheard in Downey. The ultimate demise of this wonderful bar/deli business lies in the piss poor business decisions of its owner and its bar staff. There is no place for racism and bigotry in a bar/deli that is surrounded by all kinds of races and different demographics. Elephant in the room? No, that's not an elephant, that's a clear sign that the owner of this place has failed to keep up with the times. Downey has moved on from segregation, yet this bar/deli has not. The door should have a sign that clearly states the demographic that the owner prefers, whites only. Love this place, but I'm torn due to the callous, insensitive, racist, and bigoted rhetoric that is commonly spewed by the owner and his bar staff. Politically I agree with them, however racism and bigotry have no place when serving the public using a deli/bar as a clever ruse to do business in Downey. Really wish the owner would tone down the racism and bigotry towards black and latino customers. I look white, but I am not. I wasn't even born in the United States, just because I have pinkish skin and blue eyes, that doesn't mean I am white or even American. Tone down all the racist bull, this deli/bar doesn't need this. We need this place to survive, not be run into the ground by the racist bigot that calls himself the owner. You risked yourself by opening your pie hole and spewing your toxic racist and bigoted rhetoric, you thought wrong that a familiar face with blue eyes would agree with your racist and bigoted comments. My wife is German and Puerto Rican, my beloved nephews and nieces are all from Puerto Rico. Stop the hate, stop the bigotry, stop the racism, stop spewing all the hate. Focus on making money. read more

Bomb sandwiches. Super helpful staff, chill vibes and a killer beer selection! My friend took me here for my first time and I am in love! I heard the reviews from friends, but my expectations for a delicious deli were blown out of the water. Their protein proportions are very generous, every sauce, veggie, bread, meat, and cheese ingredient was on point!! I ordered the Rachel... definitely recommend! As well as the pbj & bacon... I love a good pb&j and the bacon added such a nice crunch and saltiness! Also tried the club sandwich (get it with the chipotle aioli!) and the tuna. Such great flavors! I can't wait to come back and try more! read more

I had my first date at this establishment and it's been nothing but fond memories ever since. My boyfriend is a regular, and I at times join him. Walking in the front door is like walking into your family's home. Always greated, smiles all around, and the smell of good food on the stove. The beer selection is great, we love the IPAs, and top it off with wedges. read more

Uncle Henry's Deli - Wish I could remember the name, just know it's an IPA. - Delis Near Me - Downey, California

Great place! Good service, great vibes and great food/beer! Definitely will be back, you guys rock!

Holy moly this place is good! It's a bit on the pricey side, but the ingredients are fresh and you get a lot for your money. Even the brownies they sell here are delicious. Do yourself a favor and at least try this place once and you will be hooked. I had the Italian stallion and the gobble oink. Both of them were amazing. Every time I'm in the area I swing by. I'm not even going to get started on the beers! You have to try this place!! read more

A deli with microwaves is not a deli. This place gets great reviews because of its beer selection but their food is stupidly lacking. I've been here twice and both times I've made extended visits to the porcelain throne. read more

Nice sandwiches however not very big for The price. Needs to like big! Like wow this Is a lot! read more

I've been coming here for about 2.5 years... I happened to be passing by and was lucky enough to find it... and I am glad that I did. It's a small little spot with great food and one heck of a beer selection. If you're in the mood for a nice relaxing spot with a good vibe- Uncle Henry's is the spot! If you're hungry or just want to enjoy a beer... spot by and check it out for yourself. You won't regret it! read more

4 stars because the service is great, beer selection is great, atmosphere is great and the sandwich's are good, BUT the restroom is small and and the prices are not shown for the sandwiches. I spent 13 and something cents on the "oink and gobble". I figured that particular sandwich was going to be on the higher end, perhaps, an average price I wouldn't know because the prices are not listed. And, asking for a price on each sandwich I'm interested in is annoying. read more

Uncle Henry's Deli - Great craft beer selection + 90 beers on tap! - Delis Near Me - Downey, California

That. raspberry. beer. Sooooo good. I also had the zombie cider, which I liked just as much; the flavor got spikier as time went on (I major in nursing haha), but they were both delicious. It's a little sad that they don't sample, but I can see why they don't, since there was at least 31 taps on the first row, so there must be at least 90 on the wall. I had a taste of another cider off a friend that wasn't as sweet, but still clean tasting. Our table also shared the diablo fries which was delicious. The diablo comes from fresh jalapeno on top, which gives just enough heat but not an overwhelming amount. Legitimately, this place does not look from the outside what it is in on the inside. It's a bit of a local's secret, and just the locals that patronize fill the place up. read more

Was great food and service. Hot fresh and drinks were many to choose from thank you to all the staff .. was a very chill read more

Loved this blink-and-you'll-miss-it beer haven. Seriously, cervezorama in here. Sauntered on in with a couple of friends, ordered some turkey sandwiches, couple of rounds of beer, and had a blast. I've been on a sour kick as of late, so hooray for me as they had a great selection on tap. As much as I enjoyed their beer, I really loved the Diablo Fries. ADM hot! The only drawback was the wait. Not really a big deal, as the small size of this place really gives it its charm. Oh yeah, we also saw a guy from my local deli eating here on his day off.He admitted to loving this joint. Told him we wouldn't snitch. Local deli guy, your secret is safe with me. read more

Great service with great food. Small and local vibe with quality cuts. I recommend as a foodie with lots of beers

Ok so you should know - I love REUBENs..but.. my spots are far or a hassle.. with that in mind.. im calling this place a great alternative.. it is missing a sauce or something to match the greatness of others.. but the meat is cooked divinely and the price is way cheaper... some advice - always best to eat these hot sandwiches there or risk sogging up the bread by yhe time you get home read more

So here is the deal. I read down a lot of reviews and a couple of 1 star reviews actually gave me an LOL. Read them,,you'll get it. NO, this is not Langer's or the late Carnegie's in NYC. It is a small hole in the wall deli (I find may hole in the wall places in Downey are really very good) that DOES sell deli meat and I suppose you could go there for that but let us be honest,,,people go there for the sandwiches, the beer and probably Dodger baseball. The sandwiches are as good or better then any I have ever had in the area, they have about a billion different beers so plan to spend the rest of your life there,,and they have Dodger games and perhaps Dodger dogs. It is really small so do not think you can bring a party of 10 there,,you'll take up most of the seating. Look at the photos,,that is the entire place. Bottom-line it,,you want a pretty good sammy, you want to drive yourself nuts trying to pick out a beer,,,this is your place. PS: If you don't want the sandwich on the board (I love the Sicilian),,,,,use the build your own. Then you can't say they got it wrong. read more

Wasn't worth it. Paid $14 for a turkey bacon avocado. Still looking for the turkey, bacon and avocado.

Hello everyone this place is very great if I could give it a 6 stars I would... good food everyone there is very nice welcoming good beers i try to go there at least once a week read more

5 stars for this deli and we haven't even had a sandwich. What we did have was an experience that will make me find a way to venture out to Downey more often. And by that, I will drive to Downey and go straight to Uncle Henry's so I can write an actual account of the sandwiches in the deli. I will then, probably, adjust my rating to 6 stars. For now, they only get 5. I'll tell you why.... Floor and Decor was calling our name for a little DIY job. I often find myself in a city I don't normally go to and the first thing I do is Yelp around. After a strenuous lap examining a wide variety of floor options, I found myself thirsty. Uncle Henry's showed up in my beer search and I immediately gasped at one of the photos I saw. A wall of 60 or so beer taps arranged on a wall in 3 rows. It was a sight. It was like a Yardhouse inside a tiny deli and I had to see it for myself. I'm glad we did. Great selection upon arrival. The young man behind the bar was helpful and allowed us to taste around the board until we found something we liked. Ruben's Distillery & Brewing from El Segundo had a great IPA. It's now bookmarked and looks like a place that must be visited. She went with the Beachwood Galactic Pale Ale. Talked to patrons as we sat, salivated over the menu thinking only of my next visit, and analyzed the wall of bombers to see if any looked familiar. Can't wait to go back. Can't wait to chow down on a sandwich while sipping a cold one. Can't wait to be in Downey again. read more
