August is National Deli Month!
August is National Deli Month: Celebrate America’s Greatest Comfort Food at Mikey & Mel’s Deli
There are food holidays… and then there’s National Deli Month.
If you’ve ever sunk your teeth into a towering corned beef sandwich, started your morning with a fresh Ess-a-Bagel loaded with eggs and cheese, or helped yourself to one more pickle from the pickle bar (because one is never enough), then you already know why August deserves an entire month dedicated to delis.
At Mikey & Mel’s Deli, we don’t just serve deli food—we live it every single day.
What Makes a Great Deli?
A true deli is about more than sandwiches.
It’s the smell of fresh rye bread.
It’s brisket and corned beef sliced to order.
It’s homemade matzo ball soup that tastes like it came straight from Grandma’s kitchen.
It’s bagels baked fresh every morning.
It’s black & white cookies, potato pancakes, knishes, cheesecake, and desserts that somehow convince you there’s always room for one more bite.
Most importantly, it’s a place where everyone feels like a regular.
Why We Love National Deli Month
National Deli Month is our chance to celebrate everything that makes the neighborhood deli so special.
Whether you’re grabbing breakfast before work, meeting friends for lunch, catering an office meeting, or bringing home dinner for the family, a deli has always been where comfort food meets community.
It’s where conversations happen over coffee.
Where sandwiches are stacked higher than you thought possible.
Where recipes are passed down through generations.
And where traditions never go out of style.
