We saw this place on a PBS special and since I work 10 minutes away from there I said I have to go. What I saw on TV was what I got in person. Absolutely recommend this place to anyone who is in town. Their pickle bar low key was my favorite part of the meal! That should be added by saying their corned beef is super good! Top 3...maybe even number 1 corned beef I ever had. It even puts my cooking of corned beef to shame HAHA Love this place! Will come again
One of my all time favorite delis- with some delightful staff too!
Update Dec 2024- DINNER IS BAAAAK! Everytihng is so good and such great portions. Great selection for adults and kids alike. Ages 1-95! --------- Update: The recently renovated dining room looks amazing! I can't wait to be back in there eating! Today I'm just here to pick up our holiday pre-order and everything was ready to go and looks fantastic! They are very organized and take safety seriously. I had 1/2 sandwich and soup combo. The lean corned beef was really really really good. Bread was fresh and their mustard is great. The cup of cabbage soup was so thick and hearty. Don't forget the pickle bar. Love the pickled tomatoes and the health salad.
It's been a staple for 70+ years for a reason. Whether you choose takeout, dine in or catering, they are one of the best delicatessens in the Philly-suburb area. Featured here is the 'best of both worlds' Ruben (pastrami and corned beef) and the 'yelby' (hot brisket French dip). Plus the whitefish salad is amazing (no picture, but trust me), you won't be disappointed!
Hymie’s located at 342 Montgomery Ave, Merion Station, PA 19066 is a top shelf Deli featuring freshly cooked Meats such as Pastrami, Corned Beef, Brisket and other fine Deli items. Great pickle bar too! Friendly staff who really go out of their way to help customers have a great experience. Excellent food!! One of the 2 best Deli’s I’ve been to.
I have been a loyal customer of Hymie's for decades. Take out choices are superior to any deli in the tri-state area. Dining in the restaurant is a wonderful experience. The food is consistently delicious. The selection is huge. The pickle bar is a winning combination with each meal. The staff is efficient and really friendly. I had friends from out of town who wanted pastrami and decided to drive to Katz's in Manhattan. I diverted them to Hymie's, which is local. The pastrami is just as good. So we're our other choices. They were overly impressed, as they should be. Dominic made sure we were all satisfied and satiated. Great time. Great food. Great people.
Fantastic Jewish deli. Seating is limited but table turn is very quick. Also parking can be difficult although there is parking outback. Difference between cup of soup and bowl of soup is one matzoh ball for a cup and two for a bowl they are very generous in size. Food is amazing. Don’t forget to take a look at the actual shop itself they have Lots of desserts to take home as well. Highly recommend and will stop here again. Don’t forget the pickle bar it’s delicious.
Hymie's is one of my favorite delis. The food is always great and the portions provided are always gargantuan. We had a new server who was obviously still learning, but he more than made up for his lack of experience with enthusiasm and friendliness. I had a plain bagel with white fish and cream cheese. My date had the brisket and pickle bar. As expected, both entrees were exceptional. Total Experience: 5 stars out of 5 stars
Hymies played a significant role in shaping my life, as it was where I formed a lifelong friendship with my co-worker Paul, he is family to me. It was one of my earliest jobs back in the 1980s, and during my teenage years, I would frequently switch between their different city deli locations. Whenever I needed extra money, I would return to work at Hymies and was always welcomed with open arms. The owner, Sam Barson, and the deli manager, Ivan, taught me valuable work ethic skills that have stayed with me throughout the years. Eventually, Louis, Sam's son, took over the operation and has successfully elevated the establishment to new heights while maintaining the same classic deli style with added menu items. On a recent visit to Hymies, I was pleasantly surprised to find options for vegans, such as the açai bowl, salads, impossible burger, and other dishes that could be customized to be vegan-friendly. Despite the lack of a dedicated vegan section, the staff were incredibly accommodating and made sure I had a satisfying meal. The generous portions and fresh ingredients of the bagel I ordered, along with various toppings, made for a delightful vegan treat. I believe that adding a small vegan section to the menu, with ingredients like tofu, tempeh, edamame, and seitan, would attract more patrons seeking plant-based options. Although vegan dishes may not be explicitly listed on the menu, I appreciate the restaurant's willingness to accommodate alternative dietary preferences. Regardless, the nostalgic atmosphere of Hymies, coupled with their impeccable service and delicious sandwiches, make it a must-visit for anyone in search of a classic deli experience. I extend my gratitude to Louis for his outstanding management and for upholding this suburban legend with pride.
Great little Jewish Deli. We went for breakfast on a Saturday around 9am. No issues with getting seated The breakfast menu covered all the bases. Lots of options including vegetarian. We ordered one of their breakfast sandwiches on a bagel. It was excellent. I ordered a bagel with cream cheese and eggs hashbrowns amd bacon.All amazing and cooked to order. They had a case filled with cookies and other sweets.Along with a case filled with their desserts that included several varieties of cakes! We went back the next day and bought bagels to take home Servers were attentive and pleasant.We will go back on our next trip to Philly!
