Finally got to try green deli today and holy cow was I disappointed. Missing an item, the saddest salad ever, unseasoned and overcooked home fries. The breakfast sandwich was edible but the bagel was burnt too. Nothing of quality and really just saddened that this is what we get in Meriden.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Very nice environment, outdoor patio, pleasant staff. Tons of healthy options. The grilled chicken was thick & juicy & delicious, on fresh hoge & roll.

I really want to love this place, not just like them. They're busy every time I go in. They seem to get a lot of phone orders and pick-ups. If you plan to arrive randomly, you might have a weirdly long wait. It seems meals that should be quick are not. I asked for Munster cheese after they told me what they have and I got mustard instead. The lead staff is bilingual, many of the cooks are Spanish speaking primarily...maybe that was the mistake? We've gone for breakfast and lunch. Indoor and outdoor seating exists. Food seems consistently fresh or sold out. It's a great stop if you're at the Green or train/bus station. Walking distance to the library too. Deli and breakfast sandwiches are yummy, sometimes creative and a good messy. I'll give it another try!
