The Deli

Lunch on Mayne Island, made fresh every day.

Come hungry. Leave fed.

Feeding people is the whole point here. Every day the deli turns out sandwiches on local breads, soups, burritos and housemade meals, for a quick bite or a proper sit-down lunch. The ingredients come from all around: some grown here, some from nearby islands, some from farther afield. Here, you can find:

Four takeout containers with different dishes on a dark surface.
  • Soup and chowder, with a soup of the day, clam chowder and toast on the side.

  • Sandwiches on local breads: ham, turkey, Reuben and a vegan one with hummus and eggplant.

  • Samosas, pakoras and Jamaican patties, with tamarind and spicy cilantro chutneys.

  • Buddha bowls and burritos, with vegan and vegetarian options.

  • Housemade daily meals and pastas from the deli case.

  • Hummus, local meats and cheeses, and European specialty foods to take home.

The veggie samosas, sandwich, and soup were all beautifully done. The prices were also very reasonable!”
