Delicious! One of the best places I've eaten in Boulder. Pros: *Very attentive service. *They offer samples of the food before you commit. *Highly recommend the Lemon Mate and the navy bean with kale soup. *Reasonably priced Cons: *It's very dark inside

There was a very nice woman that made me an amazing breakfast sandwich this past Thursday. She was very pleasant and that was one of the best breakfast sandwiches. I’ve had in a long time definitely going back.

Like going back to 1973, the menu is definitely a flash back. Food is simple, not a million choices but everything is homemade and so good. Bread is astounding, especially when soaked in butter. The atmosphere inside is also like a trip back in time...Read More

Wow! This place is so cool. I had the most incredible sandwich: egg and cheese roll. My husband is gluten free and had a great sandwich on rice bread. Highly recommend!

The Yellow Deli holds a truly special place in my heart. During my university years, it became a second home — I’d eat there 3–4 times a week without fail. Every Friday, just before they closed, I’d be there, and like clockwork, I’d return on...Read More

This isn't somewhere I usually would have gone to on my own, but we had family in town and needed a late lunch in the area. The service was great and they were accommodating for our 9 people party. Everyone, including me, loved the sandwiches...Read More

I'm not usually a review leaver unless I've had a stand out experience, so, in my opinion, this place is definitely worth checking out. I felt like I was eating lunch in the shire. The music and decor made me smile throughout, but the sandwich...Read More

The best banana bread and cheese cake ever! You should try some tea which is called Rooibos! The atmosphere was also amazing if you are a lover of tavern + wood designs! I loved talking with Ben Nabiy. He was absolutely helpful while introducing their dessert...Read More

The food is so good it almost makes you forget about the Christian fundamentalism, preying on vulnerable people on acid at festivals, and 2 separate child abuse investigations in 2 countries! Being a liberal in Boulder is so easy, it's almost like being a libertarian! Just...Read More

A cute little place for all your cravings. It really brings you to medieval times. I was half expecting a bard to swing by but was disappointed. It's a fun place to hang out and enjoy nice teas.
