Farmer in the Deli

The best deli in the city. I kept seeing videos on social media, so I went myself and it checked out. 10/10! Great customer service and they’re helpful if it’s your first time going in there. The sandwiches are pretty good as well. I will go back.

We were looking for a deli that was doing their thing. I saw some vlogs about this place and since we were in Brooklyn we gave it a try. They did not disappoint. We all had variations of the chopped sandwich which you can get on a roll or a hero. You can put anything you want on the sandwich including potato chips off the shelf of your choice. They have every kind of deli meat made by Boar's Head and a large selection of cheese. After you have selected everything you want on the the sandwich the sandwich artist chops it, mixes it, and then forms it into the shape of the bread you choose. This place was amazing and so was the guy behind the counter. This place is super affordable. I definitely recommend Farmer in the Deli.

Picked up a turkey chopped hero with Ranch Doritos for about $13.50 — absolutely worth it. The sandwich was huge, even with just one layer of honey turkey and a small bag of chips. Fast service, great portion size, and everything tasted fresh. Honestly, if you’re not a big eater, I’d recommend getting it on a roll instead — it’s a lot of food for a hero. Definitely a solid spot I’d recommend!

Was working at Steiner Studios and this was the closest deli that was "Open 24hrs". I walked in at 5:30 and said Good Morning to the guy at the register... No response just a glare as he leaned all the way back in the chair. Ok.. I walk over to the deli section. It's good to know they clean the machines and grill but I wasn't expecting that during what can be considered breakfast or the fact that BOTH the men in the deli section didn't even care to stop their conversation to even acknowledge me. Great customer service! This place gets a -1 if that was an option

The first time I went here, I got one of their famous chopped sandwiches. It had red pastrami, swiss cheese, mayo, lettuce, tomato, onion, salt, pepper, oil, vinegar and jalapenos all chopped up and served in a roll. The sandwich was massive, but none of the ingredients stood out. The taste was all blended into a mellow nothingness. I couldn't distinguish the swiss cheese, pastrami, jalapenos, or anything really. So just out of curiousity, I went back another day and got the exact same sandwich, but this time not chopped. It was great and tasted amazing! I guess you have to know what you're doing when you choose what to get chopped up. In my mind, the only thing meant to be chopped up like that with whatever ingredients you want is maybe a tuna sandwich, so I'll try that next time I order a chopped sandwich.

The Sandwich Was Delicious 😋 I ordered it chopped on my honest opinion next time I'll get it Regular. Is good for the Hype or Insta but the choice is yours. Plenty of beverages all kinds Etc is a Deli. Everything is to go no tables. Quick Tip Walk 3 Minutes To The Nearest Park To Enjoy It

I love them I love the food If I could go everyday I would 😍. The food is so good!! I usually get the chopped tuna! Mayo, Spicy mustard, Jalapeño, Relish, Lettuce, Tomato, Cheese, oil/pepper/vinegar, Onion, egg and tuna chopped 😋. Sometimes I let them make multiple orders and put some in a bowl for later. I love this store. The people that work there are amazing always a good attitude especially with children. They are even nice to the less fortunate people that I’ve seen walk in the store from time to time never rude to anyone. Go try a sandwich!

This place is a joke. We placed an online order through THEIR WEBSITE and we got confirmation that it had been received and when it was ready for pickup. We got there and they informed us that it had already been picked up by DoorDash. I politely informed them we had not used DoorDash and we placed an order for us to pickup. They argued with us multiple times about how someone had already picked it up from DoorDash to which we repeatedly told them we had not used DoorDash and furthermore were staying at a hotel and thus had not provided any address so therefore that could not be true. They refused to remake the order or refund us, continuing to insist it was somehow our fault that someone had taken the order. We eventually just left and told them we would be disputing the charge. I got a call ~5 minute after we left from ?the owner who finally admitted that a DoorDasher had somehow hacked their system and forged a pickup email and STOLEN or order. He insisted we come back so they could remake it to which I promptly told him no and that we would just be disputing the charge. The way the whole situation was handled was insane. As if it was somehow was our fault someone stole our order, and the fact that we were able to show them multiple emails and text confirmations from their website that we had not used DoorDash. I would never go back to this place

I've have been going to farmer in the deli since I was a teenager and b4 any of the social media exploits. The original name was called laurose and tuna salad chopping has been happening for over four decades. My fort green family really know what it is. My cousin and I stopped by yesterday and picked up a couple of heroes. I had to get my beef salami and 3 pepper colby jack cheese, extra mayo, lettuce, tomatoes and pickles, on a whole wheat hero (10.99) . Much love to a family staple for years. Definitely a place for you to pick up a sandwich that won't break the bank.

Will have anything chopped in a hero from Farmer in the Deli. Got my first chopped sandwich here & have been going back because they do it so well here. Meat is sliced fresh & they have a large selection. Tons of toppings to add on & chop - including a bag of chips!! I like mine chopped a little less than they usually would + add mayo & honey mustard on the hero & I looove it. Have tried honey maple turkey & pastrami smoked turkey and both were great. Trying hot pastrami chopped next 1000%

The whole time I was seeing this sandwich be made, looking at the sandwich afterwards, then eating this sandwich, I had to keep thinking the same thing over and over again. This is not a tuna sandwich. Sure, yes, you could get one here, but that would be missing the whole point of this deli/sandwich shop, where for a few extra dollars, the staff will finely chop everything you want in your sandwich, compress it into a block of unrecognizable wreck, then slather the whole thing onto your choice of bread (get a hero here). I went here on a weekday during a lull between lunch and dinner, and there was still a decent line! Rumor has it on weekends during lunch rush a line can form out the door! At least it moves when somebody is not ordering for their entire family or apartment. Before I came here, I did my research and discovered turkey sandwiches are the big ticket. I ordered a honey turkey hero with lettuce, tomato, mayo, deli mustard, American cheese, oil, and red wine vinegar. Some things cost a bit extra, but that is okay. I also got it chopped because that is the thing here. You do not have to do it that way, but honestly, you should. The sandwich is made before me, all the chopping, piling, spreading, slicing, it feels like you are watching your sandwich come to life! After 10-15 minutes of ooh's and aah's, it is brought to the cash register, rung up, thank you have a nice day, and off you go. There is nowhere to sit as it is really a glorified neighborhood bodega. Thankfully, Fort Greene Park is only about a five minute walk from the deli, so I made a beeline for the park, found an empty picnic table, and made like Aqualung as I opened the wrapping to see my newborn child, um, I mean my chopped hero. Again, upon opening, I had to keep saying to myself, this is not a tuna sandwich, this is not a tuna sandwich. After one bite, I could tell coming here was the right move after a long day. Taking a bite of the sandwich in between watching videos of this made me all the more excited to keep at it. In fact, I found as I took more bites I found the sandwich gets better and better. All the bites had everything I ordered in the sandwich. Best of all, despite its size, this sandwich did not fill me up like I thought it would. Manhattan has Chopped Cheese in Haji's, but this is a unique Brooklyn treasure. Between this, Defonte's, and Lioni, Brooklyn has a Holy Trinity of sandwich shops, with Jimmy's as their jester, or if I want to keep with the piety, the pope. Before I wrap up this review, I want to thank two Yelpers for recommending me this spot. You know who you are. I will keep you nameless because the best heroes have to remain anonymous in order for them to keep up the good fight. No, not those heroes silly! Although I do hope after you read this review you will go and get one of these sandwiches on a hero roll.

This was a late night snack. Honey turkey, provolone, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, oil and vinegar. It wasn't as crowded as usual. Only had 2 lines open, but it was moving quick. Sandwich was great as always. The store looks a lil renovated. New fridges and sandwich meat cases. Doesn't disappoint. If you on the area. Please try it.

Chopped sandwich was delicious! If you come during the day expect to wait on a line potentially wrapping around the store. It doesn't move as quickly as I had hoped. While the wait may have been a big of a downer, the sandwich wasn't! I went with the honey turkey with lettuce, tomato, pickles, swiss cheese, pepper, and an old school Dipsy Doodles as my crunch factor and it didn't disappoint. This sandwich is also very shareable for two. The price also didn't disappoint either. I cant remember the last time I got a really kicking sandwich for less than 13 bucks.

I love the fact that Famer in the Deli is open 24 hours! This place has a pretty extensive menu, offering breakfast options, different types of sandwiches (turkey, chicken, and beef), as well as chopped sandwiches. We came here super early in the morning, and the fact that this place was packed tells you something! We ordered a Honey Maple Turkey chopped sandwich on a hero, with pepper jack cheese, jalapenos, onions, lettuce, tomatoes, salt, oil, and vinegar; the amount that this was inside the bread was ridiculous! The bread itself was fresh and soft, and the filling could equate to another 4 sandwiches; you could also use it as a spread for crackers! Don't forget to add a Hans Jurgen pickle - they have 2 kinds, but get the larger of the two - these are pickled perfectly, super fresh, and also big enough to share between 2-4 people! There are about 4 staff members behind the counter who take your order(s) and keep the line moving - they are all super friendly and kind! The place also has a good selection of drinks and chips to add to your meal. A great spot to fulfill a good sandwich craving! +Hans Jurgen pickles +chopped sandwiches +friendly service

I made a 45 minute walk all the way to try this spot that has gone viral for their chopped turkey sandwiches. When I arrived on a Saturday at 3pm, there was a line that wrapped around the store. While waiting in line, you can grab a bag of chips and drink. The tip is to get a bag of chips to add into your sandwich for some extra flavor and crunch. For my sando, I got the Chopped Honey Maple Turkey on Hero ($11.99) with Pepper Jack Cheese (+$1). Also got all the fix-ins: lettuce, tomato, mayo, salt, pepper, vinegar, and oil. I added half my bag of Utz Crab flavored chips ($2) as well. When I went to pay for it, they even staple my opened bag of chips to "seal" it back for me. It's definitely cool to see them make your sandwich in front of you. Because everything is made to order, the line moves slow thus the long wait times. I ended up waiting 50 minutes. Also, grabbed a bottle of Arizona Green Tea ($1.25) to enjoy my meal over at Fort Green Park. You know how they say you gotta get a bite of everything? This is what makes a chopped cheese so good-- because all the ingredients are well infused together. It might also look like a lot of mayo, but it gives it such a creamy and moist consistency like a chicken/tuna salad. The sandwich is also super filling as I only ate half and then finished the rest for dinner when I got home. Honestly, this sandwich is worth the hype and it's so delicious. The thing is that the wait is so long and it makes me wonder if I could get some similar at another bodega without the wait.

The sandwich was just delicious! I got mine with Sour Cream and an onion chips chopped up and it was delicious. If I'm near here, I'm getting a sandwich

The best deli sandwiches in the city. I kept seeing videos on social media, so I went myself and it checked out. 10/10! Great customer service and they're helpful if it's your first time going in there. The sandwiches are pretty good as well. I will go back.

I've been hearing about "Farmer In the Deli" for years. People talked about the amount of food you get for a great price. That sounded like music to my ears, so I had to check it out. If you are driving, parking in the areas is a pain, so give yourself time because it will take awhile. The outside of the building speaks history, it's older and not modernized. Inside is about the same, but it is tight in there. They have isles packed with groceries, but offer no seating. That's the trade off to sell more product I guess. You line up around the back of the store and wait. I mean really wait. The line is slow and takes time. I spent a lot of time just waiting. However, I finally got to the counter and was able to order. This delis claim to fame is that you can make sandwiches anyway you want and I mean anyway, you can choose chips, sauces, and meats to go into your sandwich. After the chop, they put it between a hero or roll and your off. I decided to get turkey and cheddar, bacon with a few toppings. After I went to the counter paid and had to sit in my car to eat, if you go there to get full, mission accomplished! This sandwich is massive. I almost didn't finish it, I said almost. But the sandwich was lacking something. I guess, I want to say flavor. They didn't put enough cheese on it, the bread was a bit hard, and the mayo was kinda bland. All in all, I really wasn't impressed. Full, yes! But that's probably not enough to get me to go back....I mean come on, food is great when you enjoy it.

Very good sandwiches and the guys who work there are really nice. Great deal for the price. I went on a Saturday at like 2:30 and the line didn't look super long but it took a really long time. I probably would only return if there were a couple people in line, though I really liked my sandwich.

No lines when I went, not the usual experience so I was glad only 2 people were ahead. The sandwiches artists here are friendly and will make your sammich exactly the way you want it. They are very proud of their craft. You can get traditional layouts and choose from the board. The lure of this place is the chopped up ingredients and you have the option to be creative, adding chips or anything from the grocery shelves onto the chopping board. On prior visits I've seen some combos that either made me sway my own order or give the silent eye roll. Today I was getting it for my hubby who likes to keep it simple. So no Buffalo flavored chips or salsa etc that I've previously seen. He got pastrami ,pepper jack cheese ,lettuce tomatoes onions and banana peppers. Either way you're gonna leave with a satisfying sandwich and they also have great fresh pickles. Cash or card. ATM in store if you need. Delicious is clean and the staff is friendly.

Super delicious chopped sandwiches here! Don't forget to add a bag of chips to chop into it :) I like this location a lot and have tried the chopped sandwich at this location and in midtown. This is definitely a much larger and older deli, which has some chaotic charm. The line moves quickly and the staff are super quick and skilled. I highly recommend getting the toasted hero sandwich and adding some chips. I enjoyed my turkey with cool ranch Doritos, and added some chopped banana peppers and jalapeños as well. It is a bit pricey for sandwiches, and one hero with some additions came out to ~$15. Be warned it is a very heavy sandwich, as the base relies pretty heavily on mayo! I felt full just eating half of the sandwich. Would come again if i'm craving a chopped sandwich!

This place had been in my bucket list forever and we finally made it to NY. The sandwich was worth the trip from Manhattan. It was so good. They have loads of specialty chips on the other side of the store to pair with your sandwich. I got the chopped mesquite turkey and honey mustard. They hand chop the smithereens out of it. The guys making the sandwiches were nice. There is no place to eat inside b/c it's like a corner store. Parking is a bit of a challenge if you drive there and if you go at night there can be some weirdos outside. I'd go again in a "NY minute" next time I'm there!

I have nothing but good things to say about Farmer In the Deli. I used to live close by and go pretty frequently, but despite living further, we still make sure to come by when we can. Walk in and head straight to the back to get in line. Grab some chips while you wait! Chopped, chopped, chopped, they do it best! Be warned, there will likely be a line, even at 2am, but it moves fast. I really love getting tuna, chicken and turkey pastrami but really, you can't go wrong with any of their cuts. Same goes for the cheeses. My favorite thing about this place is they do NOT skimp on portions. You'll need a fork to catch everything as you eat. One thing I really like about these guys is they have an option without any bread, where you get all the goods but in a plastic bowl. If you're cutting down on carbs, it's a great option. Worth the stop, worth the wait, and worth the carbs :)

Loved the concept of the chopped sandwich- I got chicken, cheese, banana peppers and jalapeño potato chips for some crunch, vinegar and oil etc.... I don't like mayo at all so I didn't do that and the same was a little dry. Having some ranch to mix in would have been perfect (I know it's mayo based). Anyway the sandwich was good and super good price for the amount of food you get which is shocking for NYC. I'd go again!

I'm already trying to plan my next visit to the store! My friend and I were in Brooklyn for the day and I found this location on tiktok because it went viral. We needed to try it before we went back home to Jersey and I'm so happy we did. Yes it is a corner store with your convenient needs but the chopped sandwiches are the star of the show I'm not sure why the chopped Ingredients make the sandwich 10 times better but it was worth the visit. I can't remember the exact price but it varied between $11-$14 and well worth it. You can have it on a hero (long sub bread) or a roll. You can also opt to add chips in your chopped sandwich just hand them the bag. I got the honey maple turkey provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, banana peppers, extra mayo, oil, vinegar, and pepper and a oregano on a hero. Staff was very nice but as you wait in line, make sure to look at the menu so you can know what you want to order to keep up the pace since it does get busy. Overall 10/10!

This place is iconic. I used to live nearby and never got a chance to try but I've always wanted to try. There's always a line but it moves fast. I love that they make the sandwich in front of you and all ingredients are fresh and to your preference. The big catch 22 is that they don't have any pork/ham/bacon/salami which is terrible for a sandwich shop. My son and I loved our sandwich which was honey turkey, pepper jack, jalopenos, onions lettuce tomatoe mayo oil and vinegar. Sandwich was HUGE and reasonably priced!!

Great spot for chopped deli sandwiches. Line took about 30minutes to get through. I got honey turkey on hero with cheddar cheese, beef bacon, onions, lettuce, salt pepper oil vinegar. It was excellent and worth the wait!

Food service it sucks and takes to long to make a sandwich The line is long as hell there's only 2 people working and I ve been standing here and now my feet are killing me

Ordered the chopped tuna added pickles with some jalapeño chips on a roll ! Let me tell you everybody was given what it was supposed to give In the guy who made a sandwich was extremely friendly, even told me if I don't like it let him know

Came at 11:20 AM on a Sunday and there was a long line; we had our food in hand about 30 mins later. Chopped honey turkey sandwich on hero was absolutely incredible - just get that, don't even think. Chopped tuna on roll was good, but more bland. Stick to the turkey. The guys making the sandwiches were super nice, and their skills are so fun to watch. 5 stars for the chopped turkey alone.

First review of 2024! Like almost everyone I'm starting the New Year on a fitness/weight loss journey-- with that being said, on my final day of poor eating, I wanted to get a sandwich from here. This place is relatively famous and usually has a very long line. I figured the line wouldn't be too long, but it was-- also, the line moves rather slowly because people usually get multiple sandwiches. Onto the sandwhich, the ingredients are chopped and diced, which actually enhances the sandwhich. I went with turkey, cheese, lettuce, tomato and honey mustard on a hero. For a decent price of $13. I would say that both the sandwhich and the experience is well worth it.

A solid late night eats. Staying in Brooklyn for a trip, and looking for something that's open at 12 am, and I happy stumbled across this sandwich shop. I've never had a "chopped sandwich" before but it's going to be the first of many. I ordered the honey maple turkey with a bunch of add ons, along with salt and vinegar chips chopped in, and for the size of the sandwich and the value, this definitely hit the spot.

Wow! It was my first time trying a chopped sandwich & it was divine! We randomly came here as it was near a yelp event we went to. We ordered a chopped sandwich on a hero: honey turkey, american cheese, salt&pepper, oil&vinegar, pickles, honey mustard, lettuce. The staff chopped all the items into a big paste & placed it on the hero. Wow! So much flavors - I felt like I was eating a special chicken salad concoction (the vinegar definitely helped with the taste). The hero was so soft & fresh. This place was so popular that there was 8 people in front of us, but it was worth the wait! This bodega sold a lot of products (beverages, chips, etc) that I haven't seen in other bodegas near me. It was pretty neat!

Literally the worst delivery I've ever had in many, many years of NYC delivery. Fries were inedible and sandwich was soggy and disgusting. If you can't do delivery, don't offer it. Truly beyond disappointing. A waste.

I'm in the area about once a month and never stopped in. Usually because when I make the trip to BK I have a few things on the agenda so I stick to my schedule. Well a few Saturdays ago I had some extra time after an appt and decided to see what the hype was about that was recently circling on social about Farmer in the Deli. It should be noted that most of the hype was from tourists. As a native NYer (born & raised) deli sandwich from the corner stores (bodega or Ock) are not anything new to us. They are staples for both field and road trips. However, here they chop up all of your ingredients and mold it to fit your bread nicely. There was a line and will probably always be a line but it moved fairly quick and the gentleman that assisted me was very pleasant and fast. I did my typical honey turkey and swiss with brown mustard, lettuce and tomatoes. I added black pepper, pickles, banana peppers and oil & vinegar. It was chopped and assembled on a roll. I grabbed a beverage and some chips. Was the sandwhich was good?... Yes! It's my typical go-to ingredients for a sando at the bodega, so I didn't expect anything different in that regard. Was gentleman nice?... Yes Was the price decent?... Typical Was it spectacular?... No It is chopped deli ingredients that may look like mush to some. Yes, you get a taste of everything in one bite but in all honesty having everything chopped makes it extremely messy. If in the area with some extra time and I have a taste for a sandwich I will probably return. Will I have the chop it? Undecided. Just A Note: There is pretty much always a line. It moves quick so if you want to give them a try, just be patient.

You must visit this spot when in Brooklyn! My friend suggested this spot for lunch after exploring Brooklyn and I'm so glad she did. We visited on the perfect day too since it was memorial day and everyone was at the beach or on vacation. There is always long line here and this day, it was cut in half. We got to order fairly quick. I ordered a tuna fish sandwich with banana peppers, pickles, mayo, salt, pepper and vinegar chopped into a roll of choice. You have to get it chopped up it's sooooo good. You can even add a bag of chips. It was a solid meal on a hot day and I will most definitely be back.

I've been coming here since I was a kid-- so I don't understand all the newfound hype around it. Decent chopped sandwiches but definitely overpriced for a deli sandwich. Always a long wait. But who am I kidding, I'll be back as always lol

Omg !! This is so freaking delicious. The service was nice at 3am and the food is delicious. The place is also clean with fresh veggies. Will definitely be coming back.

Now these guys had some interesting different type of sandwiches. Not your typical New Yorker Sandwich joint, but the food here seem healthier and taste really good. I like the Honey Turkey, and Cajun Turkey sandwiches which were FIRE. Rich in taste with some great spices n all. Nice people that work here too. I will be back for more.

I tried my first chopped sandwich here & it was amazing! I highly recommend their honey turkey chopped sandwich on a hero (w/ american cheese, salt&pepper, oil&vinegar, pickles, honey mustard, lettuce). The bread was so soft and the chopped concoction was so delicious! YUM!

Came here after reading so many great reviews but I didn't think the 30 minute wait was worth the hype. The portion size is definitely large for the price and the ingredients were fresh, I really appreciated the soft bread however it tasted like an average sandwich for me. I arrived too late so the grill had been turned off and I had to eat the sandwich cold which I'm usually not fond of. I got a chopped honey Turkey, provolone & lettuce sandwich with pepper, oil & vinegar for about $11. Probably wouldn't come back here

The place looks like your typical deli. Of course I had to try the famous chopped sandwich. I got the honey turkey on a hero with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, mayo, banana peppers, salt , pepper, oil and vinegar. Chopped together, the flavor is consistent across every bite, something you don't typically get with a regular hero. The deli clerk was fast and efficient with the orders so while there was a line, it went fairly quickly. Recommend eating it with a bag of chips.

Isa and Sadm are so nice and the sandwiches are amazing and at fair prices for Manhattan. The chopped sandwich is al such a cool concept!

This makes me think of all the happy thoughts from my child hood. This place is just a deli, but for me and my people it is THE deli. The bread is fresh and the sandwich hits every time. I would say if you are anywhere near the Brooklyn Bridge , Manhattan bridge are, if you are any place in Brooklyn, go pass here and wait in line, you won't be disappointed !

Our sandwiches were good and very reasonably priced. Although there was a line around the store, the workers were really quick and we were out in less than 10 minutes.

Both the food and the setting complement each other perfectly. Accommodating, modest, and real. The kitchen develops combinations that surprise completely. The place was still and calm at our arrival. This spot excels in all important areas.

Had to see what all the social media hype was about. I had the chopped chicken & my wife had the chopped turkey sandwiches. OMG. So good. Worth the ONE HOUR I had to wait in line to order. The deli clerk was kind and polite while taking my order. $30 for two heroes, two Snapples & two bags of chips. Ambience is what you'd expect from an old school deli. Two thumbs UP!

Been meaning to try this place and def worth the wait despite the long line (~15-20mins wait) when arriving. From the outside, it looks like any regular deli. They have a wide range of chips, drinks, cookies, candies and cereal. Keep in mind that this deli does not serve ham or any pork cold cuts iten. Only chicken, turkey and tuna. This spot is also open 24hrs so it's great for late night bites. I ordered 2 chopped sandwiches; a honey turkey, small tuna, pepper jack cheese, banana peppers, lettuce and tomatoes on a roll with honey mustard, and mayo (pictured). The 2nd; bbq chicken, American cheese, lettuce and tomatoes on a hero with mayo (forgot to take a pic). I wanted the roll sandwich in a wrap but they were out of wraps that night. The sandwich is different from your usual deli sandwich, having it chopped was so good! Next time I'm gonna try to get the chopped sandwich in a wrap or maybe I'll bring my own wrap to have them make it on that wrap. Service is great, they're patient and are serious with making sandwiches to ensure they don't make a mistake in your order. I highly recommend trying a chopped sandwich from this spot at least once they you'll understand what they have a long line at this deli. Def coming back again next time!

We came around 4:45 am after a rave and were ready to eattt!! The people there were very friendly and it seemed so fun to finally get to try the famous chopped sandwiches! There was a line about like 3-4 people in front of us which was enough time for us to look at the extensive menu! When it was our turn, we wanted the Cajun roast beef and another turkey one but they didn't have it. (Might've been because it was early morning on a weekday) We decided to throw in spicy Doritos to it because we seen they do that here! Luckily the person in front of us were getting samples of the smoked turkey and it was amazing! fresh thin and flavorful! And it wasn't dry!!! (Very important because turkey usually so dry) We got the hero and in the sandwiches, we added lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayo, vinegar, and salt and pepper! My partner added pickles! We read a review that the full chop was too fine for her tasting so we decided to try half chop for our first time and it was just right! We then toasted at home because we like our bread crispy and it was sooo delicious! Truly amazed me and I would definitely go again. The half chop was just the right texture and with mayo on the bread it wasn't dry. My partner and I both think the smoked turkey was better because the flavor from the smoked turkey really enhancement sandwich. Their smoked meats really are smoked in the best way and fresh! This place is a must try place and I will be going back again to try something new :)

The 12$$ sandwich tunafish pretty good, but maybe think put a lot of ingredients in jalapeños onions, hot peppers. Pickles. Lettuce, tomatoes, olive oil vinegar extra. Black pepper. Plus the Doritos extra hot and water.=17$ the service was long.wait It was around 1030pm They only had two people making the sandwiches and everybody wanted to go to the one particular guy the original OG been there for 30 years. I should've waited for him too. The bad part must've a bill for those kind of sandwiches anymore.

This is not a harsh three star review, but this place is just OK. Wild seeing a ton of hype around this spot considering it's basically similar to nearly any bodega on the block, outside of dicing up all the meat and veg before stuffing it all into the bread. When I first moved to the area, before the hype, I grabbed a lot of BEC sandwiches bc it was cheap and quick. Then noticed the lines for lunch and grabbed a sandwich. I'm more of an Italian meat kind of person, so this place doesn't cater towards what I like. It's more honey ham, honey turkey, or tuna options. Again totally fine, but I wouldn't wait an hour for a sandwich. I honestly thought it was popular because the portion sizes were massive. Way over hyped IMO.

Best hero ever! If your from Brooklyn, you definitely know what a good hero tastes like. They are putting a twist on the classic hero and chopping all the inside of the sandwich. I just like say the better option to get is a hero since it holds the chopped parts better but my roll was besssss. They aren't cheap and stingy with the fixings and all and the chopped sandwiches helped all those fixings marry better from the jump. You're getting an even taste evry bite. The line wasn't long when I went at night and they move pretty quick.

Came by on Sunday afternoon to try out the famous chopped sandwich and it was pretty good. Farmer in the Deli is an unassuming but efficient bodega that's known for their (chopped) sandwiches. When I stopped by, there was a decent size but fast moving line with three employees making sandwiches. Ordering is quick and customizable however you'd like. I knew I wanted to try the chopped sandwich and got it with honey maple turkey, lettuce/tomato/mayo, onions, pickles, hot peppers, olive oil/vinegar and it came out to $12.99. I enjoyed the sandwich and the novelty of "chopping" the contents, but it kinda reminded me of just an above average chicken salad (or turkey salad?) sandwich. All in all, was great to try the beloved chopped sandwich.

Came back for a turkey chop sandwich. Also took pics of the other treasures here, Junk food, lots and lots of good quality junk food :)

Service was great. The line was in the back of the store when we arrived. We probably waited for about 30+ minutes before we got served. There was a local in line who helped us understand the ordering and gave recommendations which I appreciated. To my surprise the sandwich freshly made was not that good to me bc of the amount of Mayo to "chop ness" ratio. The sandwich was just chopped too finely for my liking. After letting the sandwich sit for some hours it tasted a lot better. I would get a half chop if I were to return, if that's an option. I do recommend trying out though. My sandwich was about $16 with 2 meats.

The Farmer in the Deli is actually a convenience store that's well known for its chopped sandwiches. It is so well known that the line sometimes stretches from the deli counter all the way around the store and even outside, so plan for a wait when you go. Trust me, it is well worth the wait! You can order any combination of ingredients they sell for your sandwich with one very important difference from most delis - you can pick anything from the store isles, give it to them, and they will put it into your sandwich. So if you like a certain flavor chips, or anything else, for that matter, they will incorporate it into your sandwich. The meat and cheese are all freshly cut and assembled into a pile along with your desired items. When everything has been added they start chopping, and chopping until all the ingredients are blended together perfectly. The freshly chopped pile is then put on your choice of fresh bread. The wait goes by quickly and the sandwiches are well worth the wait because they are unique and tasty. It is for that reason and because the staff was very friendly I am giving them 5-stars.

Got the chopped sandwich they are known for. Unique and fun twist on a classic. Bread was surprisingly good / fresh. Highly recommend although there was a significant wait.
