I absolutely love Urban Deli! So happy they have moved to a larger space and have outdoor seating! The staff are so friendly and the sandwiches are awesome. The Italian (with hots) or the Club are my recommendations. So glad to have this place in our community! read more

I'm a big fan of their salad bowls. They're reasonably priced, you get a healthy sized portion and the veggies and chicken always tastes fresh. The staff is very friendly as well! read more

I just stumbled across this place on my usual errand run and wow I am so glad I did! The place is really cute both outside and inside so clean so modern really cute space. The food was just like the space PERFECT! Loved my Nova, fresh bagel, cream cheese thinly sliced onions capers (really tasty smoked salmon)! I didn't even take a picture I ate the sandwich so fast because it was so so good. The staff was incredibly helpful and nice this place was such a gem to find! I am so happy I found urban deli and I will definitely be back! read more

Urban Deli - Cute, clean, modern space! - Delis Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

See all

Urban indeed...if you're looking for fresh you have come to the wrong place. Everything is microwaved seeing as they don't have a grill. Even with such modern conveniences, if you thought you would get your sandwich is under 20 min you were wrong. Saw one guy walk out because they quoted him 25 min for a bagel with cream cheese because they were five tickets deep and overwhelmed. I could have walked to Sams bagels and back in the time it took us to wait for our premade food. read more

This is a delicious and healthy place to get a bite to eat and watch the neighborhood go by. Though the menu is on the small side, I find myself having a hard time narrowing down the options since everything sounds and smells too perfect to rule out. I also love that eating here is supporting a women owned business. read more

Service wasn't that great! I had a chicken salad sandwich and I didn't ask for them to toast the bread. Also, ordered a smoothie and it had absolutely no taste at all! I didn't have time to ask for a refund bc I was heading to a meeting. Don't think "I " will be returning! read more

Everyone was super awesome, delicious sandwich and a pelligrino soda for about two bucks? Count me in!

An easy choice for a quick bite to eat! I love the staff... cheerful and they know my order by heart after only two visits since the new location opened! The interior is very clean cut, modern, amd welcoming. They had water and treats ready for my pup when I bring her by as well! I obviously havent ventured through much of the menu, but have ordered for friends and they raved (specifically about a grilled chicken mango chutney sandwich). Always a large selection of fresh breads and bagels. I get a blt on sourdough with avocado and sprouts almost every time. Their products are always perfectly fresh! They also serve LaTeDa (sp?) Coffee, which is a local favorite! Even at busier moments, it's always been clean and the staff is always clean cut and helpful. The owner is a true sweetheart to say the least. Definitely happy to have them in FedHill! read more

I have been a patron at this restaurant 3 or 4 times now and unfortunately am losing hope. The food is great, the prices are reasonable. It fits a niche that the neighborhood has been missing.... However, it really shouldn't take 15 minutes to get a sandwich when you are the only one in the restaurant and there are 3 employees... If they can get their service down, this place would get 5 stars from me!! read more

Nice neighborhood spot to grab coffee and a bagel. They serve some Baltimore classics (Zekes coffee and THB bagels). I'm probably go for cream cheese next time instead of an egg sandwich since it looks like they microwave the eggs since their kitchen is small and limited. Friendly staff and one of the only places to stop in for a quick delicious bagel. read more

I think this place is a great addition to the neighborhood. They always greet me with a warm smile + the food is excellent. I love that there are healthy, fast options for me to pick up on my way to work for the day. read more

I just ordered the Turkey soup with carrots. It was served to me cold and broth had absolutely no flavor. Also, the price listed by the register was different than the price I was charged. They also microwave their eggs for breakfast sandwiches, which I find unappetizing. I had such high hopes for this deli but have been extremely let down. read more

Urban Deli - GROSS. COLD. NO FLAVOR - Delis Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I love this place! The African American lady there is sooooo soooo sweet! I always come to get a piece of bread with butter and she always does it with a smile! The bread and butter is amazing! I can only imagine the actual sandwiches! read more

I had to wait 40 minutes for two bagel sandwiches this morning. This place is good and I really do like it (I go almost every weekend), but come ON. They haven't seemed to figure out how to handle being busy -- I'm glad they are so popular, but they REALLY need to come up with a better system. Orders seem to get filled randomly, not as they come in. It's pretty frustrating to watch people come in after you and leave with their food before you when all you want is a bagel! At the very least, they really need a separate line for pickup vs. order in. It's also on the pricier side for sandwiches. They're good and I'm willing to pay their prices because I like the food and I like having a bagel place around the corner -- but their service has got to improve or I'm going to start thinking twice. read more

This place has a lot of potential. I've been multiple times and the one constant is you will have to wait more than 10 minutes to have your order taken regardless of how many people are in line or if you are the only person in the store. The problem seems to be in efficiency. One person takes orders from customers, but will stop to take call in orders or Uber orders or even orders of people they know that are in line behind you. So if you walk in to the store and are the first person in line, there could be five orders taken in front of yours. I tried to call ahead and was told they don't take call ahead orders of only one bagel. To echo what others have said, the egg breakfast sandwiches are microwaved. THB bagels are a plus, and are the real draw of this shop, but the inability to be efficient and get sandwiches out in less than 15 minutes kills it for me. read more

So happy to have a great sandwich shop just a couple blocks away from my home. The Little Italy sandwich is to die for! I'm a big ICC fan and Urban Deli's version might be my favorite. read more

We've tried Urban Deli for both breakfast and lunch. The fresh bagels and homemade cream cheese are delicious (I love the powerhouse - its only downfall is it costs more than it should in my opinion). Also, the bagels are pretty small in comparison to similar places in the neighborhood. I never leave really feeling satisfied and full. For lunch on a separate occasion, we tried the Reuben, and again, I think it was really expensive for what it was (it doesn't even come with chips). As far as the taste, I found it to be pretty lackluster, as they really skimped on the corned beef! Will we be back? Probably, but for breakfast only and on occasion due to the price. The staff is very friendly, and Federal Hill has been needing a place just like this for a long time! read more

Urban Deli is such an awesome addition to the neighborhood. From the delicious sandwiches to the friendly owners to the option to have THB bagels in Fed Hill -- it's all good. read more

Sandwiches were good but $30 for two waters and two sandwiches and a 30 minute wait. Much better options in the area.

Very friendly staff, delicious THB bagels and breakfast sandwiches as well as local Zeke's coffee. Great to have an awesome deli & bagel place in Federal Hill! read more

Had a last minute catering need and Laura was SO SO helpful. She immediately fulfilled the order and even hand delivered it to make sure the platter was delivered in a timely matter. I am so grateful I found such a delicious, considerate deli. Thank you for everything!!! read more

It was just okay. No real sitting area. We were told the BLT had cheese and Avocado but it came with neither.

I tried to call an order in but the phone number listed on their menu / Facebook page is disconnected. It wasn't busy at all when I went in to grab lunch (no customers at all, actually) so I got my panini fairly quickly. The interior is really clean and cute and makes me really want to like this place. The panini I got was alright but I'll be back to try and find one that I really love. read more

Want a New York style bagel? This place has it! Perfect exterior with a soft chewy interior. I ordered the Nova and was very pleased, briny capers with red onion, salmon and cream cheese, just delicious. The fruit smoothie was awesome, fresh and filled with all natural ingredients. The service is friendly, excellent and it provided a clean family friendly environment. I will be back tomorrow for breakfast again, yes it is that good! read more

Excellent spot to stop before heading to the stadium. They use THB bagels for their breakfast sandwiches.

Urban Deli is the best place to go when I'm down in Federal Hill. They have awesome breakfast sandwiches and huge, cheap lunch options with homemade cookies. Always greeted by friendly people and open early which makes it convenient!! read more

Just had the bacon egg and cheese on an everything bagel. This place doesn't skimp on the bacon that's for sure. Really enjoyed my breakfast! read more

The perfect quick bite to eat! They have good quality bagels which is hard to fine in Fed. The nova was so fresh and the service was great! They messed up my order but realized they did so and gave us a free bagel for the longer wait time! So sweet and an easy choice! read more

Urban deli is one of the worst delis ever! I don't even know why they reopened. I tried going there 2 times and the first time... I ordered a salad the cheese was moldy and the corn was slimy. I told them and they offered more food instead of a refund. I thought I'd try it one more time just to see if maybe the sandwiches were good I ordered a bacon egg and cheese bagel the eggs were microwaved and it was a long blond hair in my egg! I also found out they don't make the eggs at the deli, the owner makes them at home the night before! I'm done you guys suck! Oh and tell your employees to put hairnets on sheesh! read more

I have enjoyed Urban Deli many times before, but after today, 1 star and I'm pretty sure I won't be back. I waited OVER half an hour for 1 bagel sandwich. It was not that busy, and the person who came in and ordered 10 minutes after me had his order made before me. Since I had to wait, I figured I would watch them make orders (nothing else to do since I left my phone at work). It was chaotic and messy. I am vegan, and admit to being picky, but the way they were handling food was just gross and unsanitary. The same knife used to smear chicken salad and mayonnaise was used on every other sandwich being made. All they did was continually wipe the knife on the same dirty rag over and over. Uh, that doesn't make anything clean; It just makes that rag grosser and grosser and thus the knife which keeps being rubbed all over it. When I saw them begin on my bagel, I verified that it was double toasted, because hey, it's easy forget special requests (especially 30 minutes after it was ordered). I was told yes it was, but nope, it sure wasn't; I was given a cold soft bagel. It immediately went in the trash can at work. Entire lunch period wasted, went over my allowed time and still had no food. I called to get a refund and I was told I could come pick up another (nope, I wasted my entire lunch break and then some waiting on a bagel that wasn't made correctly). I reiterated that I want a refund. She told me I had to come in and pick up the money. Nope, I'm not wasting my time and gas to pick up money. I paid with a card, it can be refunded back to the card. I was hung up on! I called right back in shock that she hung up on me. She gave me more attitude telling me I told you it will be refunded. I asked her how if she doesn't have my card number or how much I paid. Shocker, she didn't have an answer. She took my info and told me to wait for the owner to come in to process it. It was a horrible experience all around which saddens me knowing how good it used to be. Maybe I was just ignorant of it all since I usually order ahead and don't see the mess or know how long they really take. read more

I love this local deli and the homely feel every time i come in! Great sandwiches and soups not to mention the fresh Zeke coffee! Always have great service and a friendly attitude. Highly recommend for all visiting from out of town or neighbors alike!! read more

Place is very clean. Cute, little build out. Very Baltimore, charming. I got the turkey club and it was excellent! Bread was fresh, tomatoes, lettuce all fresh and the place was very clean. Staff was extremely nice! You could tell the lady making the sandwiches makes them with love and care! I will definitely be back soon!!! read more

Had the hot turkey so ho sandwich and it was delicious. Owner was so friendly and sweet. Place was clean. Will definite go there again when I come to town read more

I ordered the Little Italy sandwich on a bagel, and was told that it needed to be on the cibatta bread, because there's no way that huge sandwich would fit on a tiny little bagel. Turns out the real reason was because I was going to be served a pre-made sandwich that had been sitting in the case, and to have one on a bagel would mean that it had to be made fresh on the spot. The sandwich was hardly too large for a bagel, and though it wasn't awful, it definitely wasn't fresh. I wouldn't have been nearly as bothered if they had been up front with me, but they weren't. Additionally, this place also has no lunch combinations, so a bag of chips and a drink costs roughly $3-4 extra, on top of the $8-9 cost of the sandwich, which for something underwhelming in size and not freshly made is overpriced, in my opinion. read more

This place is right around the corner, so I was hopeful that I would have a favorable experience. My tuna sandwich was very tasty, but sadly, as several others have noted, the service was impossibly slow. I was the only person in the shop, and there were two counter servers. They just dawdled, taking their time slowing making my sandwich. At $8-something, I expect a pickle or chips. get with it, or you will fold. read more

I recently moved to Baltimore from the New York City metro area. On previous visits to Baltimore prior to moving, I was always disappointed that I couldn't find a decent bacon, egg, & cheese on a bagel. Thankfully Urban Deli opened in April! This is the best place in Fed Hill for a BEC - and they're only $4.75! read more

This is not my first time being here I have probably been here twice and the coffee is good and the banana bread is really good. My visit today was the complete opposite of the last two times. I got my coffee and I was at the counter where all the creamers almond milk and sugars were. I went to put creamer in my coffee and the creamer jug was empty. I turned a round and this lady I believe she is the owner was fixing a sandwich and I asked her if I could get some more creamer, she did not look up as she was finishing fixing her sandwich but she said sure one moment as soon as she said that she looked up and I said thank you, however the look on her face was if pure disgust and annoyance which was much different than her initial response a few minutes earlier. I shook that off and turned back to my coffee to add sugar while I waited for my creamer a minute later with her back turned and quite a few feet away she said there is milk and almond milk there no creamer. No apology no effort to approach me and give me the news. I am not sure why all of a sudden there was no creamer. Needless to say very horrible customer service and I will not be going back. read more

Great idea, which is much needed in the location. Very good THB bagels, and great pricing. A few fine tunings and it could be great such as larger and stronger iced coffee for all the hungover residents of 21230. read more

Welcome addition to the neighborhood!! Already been here countless times since they opened. (1) they have the best quick breakfast sandwiches in fed hill (2) ZEKES COFFEE!!! (And there ice coffee is cold, not hot coffee over ice) (3) super friendly staff that gets to know your name. Also in response to that negative review, I have gotten 15+ bagel sandwiches here and can attest that they toast every bagel and the eggs are homemade. There is lunch is great as well. Prices are consistent with the high quality of the food, I don't mind paying a little bit more for better ingredients. read more

Love having a (clean, friendly, delicious) deli in Federal Hill! The only issue I have is that I don't think they have nailed down the process yet. We've waited between 20-30 minutes from walking through the door to being handed a panini. To be honest, I love the sandwiches, so I would probably wait around even longer than that if I had the time. Unfortunately, I'm usually going during my lunch break and need to get back to the office ASAP. If they could speed up the wait time, this place would be 5+ stars. read more
