Junket - El Cerrito

Old fashion deli with European goodies. Love the pastrami sandwich always served with a pimple. My husband gets a headache, blood sausage or tongue. You can't get them in every deli.

My first visit after Junket was recommended by a foodie friend. Excellent roast beef sandwich on a fresh and crusty french roll. Several German beers on tap. Deli meats and cheeses for sale including some hard to find German ones. A modest selection of German and British groceries. Maybe the selection will increase as pandemic fades. I'll be back. Trader Joes is just a few doors away so I can combine visits.

Such a nice deli! Hilarious postcards and art up on the topic of head cheese*. *Contains no cheese. :

The reubens were excellent! They were made with dark rye, and we would love to have that option again next time! The German potato salad was also fantastic!

The Reuben sandwich was outstanding! However, the spinach brioche felt a bit small and lacking for its price. The potato and bean salads were tasty, but the portion sizes were on the smaller side. On a positive note, they offered a beautiful selection of German bread beers.
