Weâre Mikey & Melâs Deli, and weâve got one simple mission: to serve up authentic New Yorkâstyle deli goodness right in the heart of downtown DCâno flight to JFK required.
Whether youâre a bagel boss, a pastrami purist, or just someone who appreciates a sandwich you need two hands to handle, youâre going to feel right at home at our place.
𼯠What Makes Us a Real NY-Style Deli?
Weâre not just tossing cold cuts on bread and calling it a day. At Mikey & Melâs, weâre building sandwiches with soul:
Fresh-baked bagels every morningâboiled, baked, and beautiful
Overstuffed sandwiches that lean heavy on pastrami, corned beef, and turkey
All-day breakfast (yes, we said all day)
Homemade knishes, black & white cookies, rugelach, and more
Everythingâs made with love, seasoned with a little sass, and served up fast so you can get on with your DC hustle.
𼪠What Locals Are Saying
Donât just take our word for it:
âFinally! A legit deli sandwich in DC.â âThe pastrami is smoky, stacked thick, and totally worth the hype.â âThose bagels? Unreal. And the pickle bar? Game changer.â
We like to say weâre a little slice of NYC with DC attitude.
