"A long-standing deli and coffee shop reliant on eggs for its menu, including a popular two-egg special. The deli is facing significant cost increases due to the rising price of eggs." - Brittany Britto Garley

I found myself walking thru the upper east side and decided to step inside the York deli. The guy behind the counter was very helpful and I ended getting a pastrami sandwich. The sandwich was great and a really good size. Prices are super reasonable. The menu here will satisfy anybody who is looking for a deli type breakfast or lunch.

When I was at Yorkville East for middle school I used to come here as it had much cheaper prices than other delis, they have some good snacks and a large selection of drinks. I haven't got fresh food from here but its good for snacks and drinks before school.

Fast Delivery, good food and friendly personal service. Cons: expensive. Would not include my free small coffee with my breakfast sandwich because "I didn't get meat on the sandwich" (I got an extra egg instead). 4.00 for an egg sandwich on a roll even by NYC standards, it should definitely have came with a free coffee, especial because I am a repeat customer. I ended up agreeing to pay for the coffee, and he charged me a dollar for it. Aside from this incident, this place is definitely a 4 star deli, and worth using for anyone in the area.

Came here over four years ago and the cashier was very nasty to me and the people I was with. He falsely accused one of us of having a fake ID when trying to purchase alcohol and was incredibly disrespectful. Never coming back here again.

I've always been skeptical of this place, from the be-all approach they take to their non-deli, non-bakery, non-pizzeria "contemporary" joint. Stopped in for a quick bite after the gym and it was better than I anticipated. Maybe it's really worthy of 3 stars and the additional star is because I was starving, but the pizza was solid, the garlic bread not bad (albeit a bit too greasy, and I'm not sure what from, but it wasn't garlic or the typical spices) and the grab-n-go tex mex salad was flavorful. Service was accommodating, as I was pretty out of it and they beared (bore?) with me.

I go to York Deli for two things: sliced meats and cheeses, and their chicken cutlet sandwich on a roll. Both are reasonably priced, and those looking for a quick and easy (and delicious!) sandwich would be well advised to stop in.

Was 15¢ short on $5 worth of drinks (yeah I actually mean cents like 15 pennies) and he told me he couldn't let me pay him later and that I had to use an ATM. I'll just go to one of the other 17 million corner stores in NYC.
