All you could hope for in a deli! Large menu. Great sandwiches. Great baked goods. Only tried the tomato basil soup, which was more reminiscent of tomato sauce, so will have to try another one next time to get a better gauge on their soup situation. In the wintertime, you can still sit in the back and get a lovely view of the harbor from their windows.
A little pricey for the portions and casual vibe, but Camden Deli was still a solid spot for a quick lunch. We weren’t very hungry and were looking for something informal during a weekend day trip to Camden when we came across this deli. I had the sausage and peppers soup along with a broccoli salad, and both were really good. My husband ordered a small side of pasta, which he said was yummy. That said, just those three items came out to $27, which felt a bit steep for pre-made food ordered at the counter. The dining room does have large windows with beautiful water views which was a plus. Service was fine overall.
Deli food at its best! We stopped in for a sandwich on the go and the staff was quick to steer us to a perfectly balanced focaccia!! Like look at that thing! It was delicious as take out but also looked like a nice place to dine in while out on the town.
If we've learned anything from our extended US East Coast road trip, it's to find the best Deli or equivalent supermarket in your destination, buy your lunch or dinner there, and eat at a beautiful spot of your choice. That's the case here, too. The Camden Deli has everything you desire. The sandwiches are super delicious by the way. Take them to Camden Harbor at sunset and enjoy the entertainment and hustle and bustle. You keep that much longer in your head than a restaurant visit.
Outstanding! Every server I saw or interacted with was super friendly and attentive. I sat upstairs so I got table side service. I ordered the Italian sub on a baguette and a black coffee. I didn’t intend to eat the whole thing but I couldn’t help it. It was so good!!! The baguette was very fresh, and the meats and cheese were perfectly stacked and fresh and tasty. The coffee was great!! I really can’t say anything bad because it was all good. Price was reasonable and seating was very comfortable. The interactions I saw between servers and other folks was friendly and helpful. If I lived around here I’d come as often as possible. Photo only has half pictured because I agree the first half within seconds.
