“Stopped by Amy’s Hilltop Deli for a Sunday fundraiser and was blown away. I tried ‘The Californian’ (turkey, avocado, and sprouts) and you can really tell they use high-quality, fresh ingredients. The bread had that perfect ‘fresh-baked’ feel. The potato salad was also a highlight—very flavorful and the perfect texture. Between the great food and the friendly owners, this is definitely my new go-to spot. Highly recommend their specials!”

I absolutely love this little deli on the hill 🙂
I stopped in this morning and I had a great breakfast sandwich with sausage on sourdough. They had a small serving tray with the freshest blueberry muffins that were amazing. Look at all those blueberries!
Thr owners and attendants care about the food they serve and it shows. Such a friendly place to visit in the morning.
I have been coming here on an off for a year and they have never disappointed me.
Thank you for your friendly nature, wonderful service, and the muffin recommendations!

Great sandwich with one of the best portions I’ve ever had! They do not skimp on your order. Always feel like I got my dollar’s worth, and then some. The veggie sandwich is a great option for non-meat eaters. The Italian sub is COLOSSAL and so delicious! Subs come with a side salad, pasta salad, or potato salad. Got the potato salad last time and it was amazing. My favorite potato salad I’ve gotten lately. Will get that everytime now.
Overall very great place with a friendly staff and nice little store front.

My wife & I tried hilltop deli a couple weeks ago after seeing it on social media & they did not disappoint. I got the Californian sandwich the first time & I tried the chicken chipotle sub are most recent time going a few days ago & both were bomb.The food is awesome, good portions every sandwich comes with a side either a salad, potato salad & I think one more option to choose from. We have been back again since the first time because it’s really good & reasonably priced. They have inside & outside tables if you want some sun. Give them a try you won’t be disappointed.

My “The California” sandwich from Hilltop Deli was so delicious! The lightness of the sprouts, mouthwatering bacon and fresh avocado made this meal a pure delight. To top it off with the perfect pasta salad and tangy pickle, my order was big enough for two meals. I can’t wait to eat the rest tomorrow! I’m headed back to Hilltop Deli ASAP!

I just started working in the area of this deli and I’m stoked to find this place!
Great affordable food, service and family owned. I love supporting local establishments, it’s a little off the beaten path but if you’re in the area, give them a try! Robust menu!

The food and the staff here are always on point. We call in our orders and they are ready when we get there about once or twice a week. Good portion size and fresh produce and house made salads – no prepackaged bulk junk here.

Amy’s Hilltop Deli is an absolute gem! The food is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care, and the service feels genuinely warm in a way you don’t find often anymore. You can taste the love in every bite, and the portions are generous. It’s the kind of place you want to come back to again and again. Highly recommend!!!

The sandwiches are amazing. Not only are they delicious, they are huge. Two could easily share, or one person can make two meals or of an order.
