Bari Bodega

Best deli in town! Their hot food plates are always fresh, delicious, and super affordable — easily the best prices in the area. They cater for my job nearby all the time, and I still come here on my own because the food’s that good.

Barims bodega is one of the best deli’s i went to, been coming here 10 years. The bacon egg and cheese breakfast is amazing and really tasty. Also good cheese burgers that cone with a soda

I’m a regular here & this is my preferred breakfast spot! Ronny & the chefs always make my food with love & they’re fast! If you’re in the area, grab a bacon egg & cheese

PRICES ARE NEVER CONSISTENT. DONT GO. They charged me $4 for a croissant with butter, used the packaged $1.50 croissant to make it then when i finally got to eat it a few blocks away they put the tiniest bit of butter, it was maybe like 5% butter, 95% hard dry bread that literally HURT to get down. I get we’re in the city and things are more expensive but why is a butter croissant the same price as a creamcheese bagel? Also they don’t display the prices of some of these things and don’t tell you the price they just put the tap to pay machine in your face and once you’ve tapped and seen how much it cost, you’re screwed. No where in the world should a croissant with butter cost more than a creamcheese bagel especially when you’re using the pre packaged processed croissants. Also the creamcheese bagel had a weird, funky almost expired flavor one time that i had it. It sucks that this is the only deli in the area, it’s right by where I work. Also the older guy in the front always got a miserable thousand yard stare face on. 3.5/10 for me. Ps. The place is a very cramped space and can feel claustrophobic when the morning rush hits.

My neighbors for over 30 years!! Family run, they take pride in providing quality food at prices that do not reflect the current state of the economy. They treat the blue collar customer as well as the white collar in the neighborhood and the chef? Simply one of the best and a damn nice guy. The chicken soup is simply world class and I highly recommend. A 12 outta 10. Don’t miss it.

Love the Hungry Man at Bari Bodega. Grab it every morning, best breakfast burrito for the price in the area. Staff is polite and professional. Always a great start to the day when I step in and order the burrito.

Delicious with good portion!! Would recommend the chicken fajita panini. Staff was also very nice :)

Went in around 3pm to place a huge order of wraps on catering platters. The young man working took his time and was thorough when taking such a large order. We went over the handwritten food choices multiple times and they were ready exactly on time. The employees helped me carry all the food and everything was great. My crew especially complimented the breaded chicken wraps which I wasn’t originally going to order but the young man recommended. Looking forward to ordering again for our next event!

Fire spot for breakfast or lunch if working in the area. This and a Gatorade was $8 really can't beat that.

Favorite restaurant in Union Square area. Tortas are bomb. Roast beef torta is great, Chopped Cheese torta is amazing. Staff is very nice. Mexican music or quiet - a refuge in the Union Square area.

They don't care, they will give you rancid cat litter if you'll take and over charge you. DO NOT GO HERE IT IS NY AT ITS WORST

A deli in the vicinity of Union Square where New Yorkers can attain the breakfast grub on-the-go. A very narrow walkway entrance where patrons place their order to check-out, ergo, blocking their method of egress as per (OSHA) Occupational Safety & Health Administration. The word "excuse me" has no effect in such a small narrow space where patrons decide their order, waiting for their order all the way to check-out. New Andy Deli is a typical New York deli where space is a luxury and rent is extremely high. Breakfast is very moderately priced under $10.00 as my one egg with American cheese on a roll was $2.00 which resonate as okay. Quality was MEH as it is not gourmet quality. There are beverages and minimal mixed fruit salad with yogurt items. Staff serve patrons in a robotic and apathetic systematic demur.

Bodega with seats And I've gotta say, there's nothing wrong with that. Andy, the owner was a sweetheart who seemed to know the regulars pretty darn well (have to appreciate that). The sandwich menu is pretty limited , but the bacon egg and cheese on a bagel did the job. We're I hungrier the 7$ cheese steak (comp can o' soda) looked pretty solid. I will say that when we went in around noon, there was an alarming amount of middle age men drinking beer and watching international soccer on the TV Andy has up in the back. Big fans of Romania football, or alcoholics? Jury is out on that one, but they seemed to be having a good time either way. Come here for brown bag beers and walk away sandwiches. Oh an of course, for the lady who cares about her regulars.

Pretty darn good! My office is so close that I eat here 4x a week at least. Yes, it's crowded and small, but hello, welcome to New York City! Here's a hint, if it's crowded that means it's good. Prices are reasonable, female cashier is quick, smart, attractive and really sweet! The best of the place is their in-store made soups, really incredible! Amazingly rich, flavorful and delicious. The worst is their in-store made muffins, bland, tasteless and dry. Middle of the road, is their new salads, they never have what's listed and they look confused if you order any dressing listed other than Italian. They don't chop the salad and the tuna is soaked in mayo. For breakfast, I recommend the salami and egg sandwich. I definitely recommend that you check that your order is correct before leaving.

Sandwiches hit the spot. Min got the Becker II and said "people need to put french fries in sandwiches more". I got the southwest chicken sandwich and it was really solid!

My office is nearby and I have to walk by this deli every morning on my commute. I wouldn't know what I'd do without it. Their breakfast sandwiches hit the spot and are so affordable, even when you ask for extras. It's also a great spot to hit up for lunch sometimes when I'm craving just a basic deli sandwich. Prices are overall very affordable in an otherwise very pricey area, and the employees are always pleasant. Ignore the elitist reviews on here commenting on the look and feel of this deli, it's definitely not a sit down spot, more so just a reliable go-to for breakfast/lunch.

Bewilderingly bad customer service in the grill- Employees seem to have zero interest or understanding of business. I called to place a delivery breakfast order this morning, And when I asked if they could mark our meals with our names (I was ordering for 10 people) the guy said "no, we don't do that" and hung up. I called back, convinced that he misunderstood what I was asking for, and he seemed confused and hung up again. I assumed the place was a madhouse, and the guy was overwhelmed. I decided to walk down there, only to find the place was not busy at all...I was actually the only customer when I walked in. I approached the deli guy, explaining that I had called him moments earlier, and that I had to place an order for 10 breakfasts. This is where things got really mind-boggling... He told me "uhh..come back tomorrow ", like this is a reservation only dining establishment (and not a convenience store takeout deli). I again thought he must be confused. Then,a few people filtered into the store behind me and the guy said I should "step aside" so he could take their orders... like he was worried about the store losing a few bagel sales while he was selling me $100+ worth of stuff...it made no sense... This is the behavior of someone with no logic or understanding that as a business your goal is to sell more, not to save merchandise in case someone else wants it.. I went to the cashier, who was just staring into space, and explained that his coworker was turning away large orders to make sure he had time for small ones, and the guy just shrugged. I just couldn't help but wonder what the owners, who must pay thousands a day in commercial rent, would think of this bizarre and deeply flawed logic.. I wound up calling another deli down the street, and they were totally normal about it.

I've given this place three tries, and each has been poor. Affordable food is sometimes hard to come by around Union Square, so I seek out this smaller delis. I found this spot a couple of months ago, before they revamped their menu with the new screens. Nothing on the menu boards were numbered or named, so when you asked for "the first sub listed on the board" they had no idea what you were talking about. They replaced the boards with some new boards and a flat-screen TV, which is now equally confusing: the sandwiches are still not named or numbered. The "wraps" section lists the type of bread that each comes on. There are printed pictures of sandwiches taped to the front of the deli case. It just leads to mass confusion as to what you are ordering. The first visit, the sandwich was just not very good... good quality, as in nothing was questionable, but it wasn't very tasty. The second visit, they used awful American cheese instead of the swiss listed on the board. The third visit last week was my last. I again asked for "the first sandwich on the board, the one that's like an italian." They asked "what?" and I said "the one with the salami and all of that stuff listed. What did I get? A sub with a few slices of salami, and for some awful reason, jalapeno peppers! Of course I wasn't about to walk four blocks back to complain, and ate my strange sandwich from New Andy's Deli for the last time. This place even fails and an awful deli.

I usually come here for the bagel and cream cheese, which is usually good. I sometimes, order flowers from the guy outside. Two dozen roses for $10 which is a good buy and they usually last at least a week with proper care.

I was walking 5 blocks to go to Bagel Buffet down on 6th but Andy's is much closer to my place and just as good for my usual, an everything bagel and scallion smear. The lady ringing up my order also makes my coffee and I've never seen anyone more efficient or fast at it. It literally took her 2 seconds to simultaneously drop a spoon of sugar and pour creamer in while the coffee nozzle was fully opened. It was like watching a NASCAR pitstop for my coffee cup. The crossaint sandwiches (both sausage and bacon) are good, and they have a very nice selection of drinks in the display fridges. A definite regular stop at a very good price for where it's at.

Wasn't really thrilled with the service. I had to repeat my order to two different people, both of which were extremely confused by the fact that I wanted a sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich on regular bread slices (not a roll). What's unclear about that? I also felt like the guys making the sandwich gave me a little bit of attitude. Speaking of the sandwich, it was one of the worst I've ever had. Really dry and hard to eat. Never again.

Place always looks dirty. Go to order something and the price is always higher than the sign outside. I mentioned it a couple of times and the answer was "The prices changed.". So WHY would you still have the signs outside?

It's an above average deli/bodega. Layout is weird, food is decent, prices are on point for the hood. I prefer 21 berry which is 3 blocks up but I figured I would give this place a try too. Not bad if you are in the hood and need a BEC.

Ok, I've gone into Andy's a few more times and they have a new lady cashier in there who rocks and is on top of her game. I love the bagel breakfast sandwich and they are always playing the news or sports games in there. I really feel like they've stepped it up service wise and therefore am adding an additional star onto what I originally gave them!

So, Andys is the type of place that you go to because its right next door to where you work and you want to grab an affordable and fast. Beware; the guys preparing the food don't speak that much english so speak slowly and pronounce your vowels, most days they just give you what they feel like you should eat so if you say something like...Chicken Sandwich, no mayo and no tomatoes; you might have mayo and tomatoes and some random cheese just cause. Their break fast food is slamming thought, their bagels are mostly fresh but their coffee is a bit on the brackish side. Over all a great go to store for random snacks and beverages. I wouldn't trust their open food (stews, rice etc...that seems a bit above what they are capable of doing) Good luck.

I've work for two years next door to Andy's and make it a point to not eat there anymore. The saving grace was Angie, the cashier, but she hasn't been there in more than half a year. I have a high tolerance for places now in terms of reviews because I also work in the service industry. However, I tell my friends and new coworkers to avoid this place, and sooner or later, they agree. Prices are most definitely arbitrary. I can order and buy the same thing 4 days straight and charged 4 different prices. One day, it's 2 dollars more expensive. The next, .75 cent different. After that, $1 off. I mean, does FiCO coconut water work like stocks? To call this a typical New York Deli/bodega insults the traditional bodega/deli. Andy's, I gave you 1 year before I gave up. More than you deserved.

$2.50 large ice coffee in USQ is a win. The lady cashier in the morning is extremely pleasant and I'm grateful this place exists in my expensive and chain-ridden work hood.

I've been here more than a few times, always with crap results. Their flowers die in hours and they make no apologies about it. I ordered 4 six packs of specific beer, they sent me Heinekens and Stellas and said "it's all the same". The TASTE is not the same, and more importantly, NEITHER IS THE PRICE. When I called to find out what the problem was, the staff was rude and wouldn't take any responsibility, made no apologies, and told me the boss's name is Tony Montana. Yeah, you guys are real funny. Rule of thumb: CHECK WITH YOUR CLIENT BEFORE MAKING A SUBSTITUTION

This is a great piece of real NY in Union Square. The food is great, the price point is even better for this part of town, and the service is NY neighborhood service. This is my new spot!

2.5 Stars. Ordered a Turkey BLT on a hero with mayo. The bread was not fresh and sandwich was average at best. It is very tight inside and not easy to figure out where to order. The menu is limited, though they will make custom orders. For a NY deli, this place ranks very low.

Fine for a regular NY deli on selection and service but it's SO NARROW! Why, why, why must your ATM (and beverage coolers, and seating) be all the way at the back, through the tiniest hall of a store packed with people that won't move? It's so uninviting to have to elbow one's way in the front door!

Starbucks was out of oatmeal so I decided to go somewhere else for a quick breakfast. Mistakenly, I tried a turkey bacon egg and cheese on roll. I don't believed they cracked a fresh egg to put on my roll. The egg wasn't even warm enough to melt the cheese! They didn't attempt to season the sandwich so it was bland and dry tasting. I think the turkey bacon was a few days old as well. It was chewy and hard to bite into. This is the worst egg and cheese I have ever had. My six year old nephew makes a better sandwich. Total waste of my time and money!

It's a typical NYC deli. Nothing fancy. We often order breakfast (BEC, fresh fruit salad, coffee by the gallon) for the team when we're working a photoshoot in the neighborhood. The line is often long but moves fast. Have patience.

I WILL NEVER GO BACK AGAIN The chicken there was rotten. It must have been there for a while because of lack of customers. Go figure. The worst deli in New York City.

Nice little bodga off Union Square where a cold brew and basic bite won't cost you much.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! I ate an egg and cheese sandwich here and got terrible food poisoning!

Yes, I'm a fan! With all the chi-chi and new food around the area this is a solid, go-to, old fashioned deli. Yes, it's small but they really try and give a good deal. Sandwiches, which are bigger and cheaper than they are at Pret A Manger down the street, include a free drink! Adn they have home made food. I had a roast beef sandwich that wasn't some sort of Boar's Head processed/packaged product. This is the way most deli- sandwich shops were from the 1960s-90s. Yes, they have to work fast and hard but they are keeping prices reasonable. A burger w/fries and drink is about $7 here. Across the street more like $9-10. Compare their value to the Barnes and Noble Cafe! And see how critical I am of other places. The food here is fast, tasty and cheaper. The neighborhood needs Andy's! They are doing good for ordinary people.

I have been working nearby for nearly 6 years now, and every time I go here I regret it. They will either attempt to over charge you or they will really screw up your order. Once I asked for Jalapeno, and their was a mountain of peppers inside my sandwich akin to ghost peppers and trust me - I am not timid when it comes to spicy.

Solid deli for that lunchtime fix for an affordable sandwich and a pickle. Decent selection and tasty salads. I'm a fan of their tuna salad sandwiches and must say it's a pleasant surprise to get a sandwich, pickle and soda all for under $6. A little cramped in the small space but its worth the squeeze for a good lunch.

The lady who takes the money is absolutely the friendliest thing ever! I was always afraid to go into delis because I didn't "know the drill," where to stand, to whom to give my order... but the fellows making the sandwiches are great too. This is now one of my regular stops!

These people have to be the dumbest mfs I've ever met in my lifetime, they're rude, they mess up every time I've ordered, they really all need to be fired! they're just a convenient deli being that delis are usually overpriced around this area.

Come here when I'm in a rush because it's close to my job. The food is good for the price you pay. I usually get 3 eggs and cheese on a bagel and pay $3.5. It does get crowded sometimes, however the lines move pretty fast.

Good little deli in the flatiron district/union square area, but nothing that's amazing. I would consider this place a glorified bodega, as it is very tight and crammed while happening to have a guy you can order food from. This being said, the egg sandwiches are definitely a solid choice and the drink selection is as expected for a place like this. It may not warrant three stars necessarily, but the convenience of the location and the decent food makes it a spot that's worth going back to for those living in the hood.

The sandwiches and panini's at this deli are delicious. They have a good variety on their menu and it's reasonably priced for the union square area, plus they're open 24 hours. The sandwich combos are around $7 and they come with a soda, while the panini's also come with a side of salad and dressing of your choice. My favorite is the turkey panini. Though if you call for delivery, i'd recommend calling to remind them of your order cause sometimes they are busy and take around 30 minutes to deliver your food.

Great place to go to for a quick meal/snack. I usually go there when I am on my 15 minute break. The Mexican cooks are very friendly. Occasionally the line gets a little long but moves very fast. Food prices are very cheap there.

i love these finds so much. they'll make you any sandwich you want, it's huge, and less expensive than anywhere else. and such nice guys! I got a sesame sub. do it! will be my regular sandwich spot for work lunches!

solid. my go to breakfast when getting off at union square. fast. friendly. exactly what i need to start my day off right.

Poor customer service one of the clerks refused to answer my question while he was making a sandwich. Whether he did not want to answer it or he did recognize the urgency was beyond me and only hurts the owner.

This deli does not deserve anyone's business. I waited over an hour for a simple lunch order which never arrived. When I called to ask about status they said sorry we are busy with catering and would not check or acknowledge my confirmation #. The individual I was speaking to, who could not communicate well, hung up on me. I called back. He hung up again and said "I am busy". I called back several times to finally get through to the manager Mohammed who basically said "too bad". Shameless!!!

This is the worst experience I have ever had with a NY deli. I ordered 40 dollars worth of drinks and a dozen eggs. The eggs get to me broken. And they drinks smell of Indian and curry sweat. It's disgusting and repulsive there's no way this clean enough to eat at. Worst of all I tried to call and tell them politely my issues I was having with my order and she put me on hold for 5 minutes. After that I called back and they constantly ignored my calls. DONT ORDER FROM THIS PLACE! ITS THE WORST DELI I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED!
