A definite go to place for lunch or dinner. I live in the Village and this is my most common lunch venue though Planted next door is becoming another favorite. The draw for the Deli is their great fresh tasting food and a wonderful patio with sun or shade, whatever you prefer, a diverse menu and decent beer selection on tap. Also great summertime entertainment on Friday evenings. It is so lively it is just fun to sit and watch the tourists drive by in wonderment at what a dynamic vibe goes on there.
My husband and I have been here a handful of times. We love to bring our two pugs and hangout on the patio. The food is great as well as their beer and wine selections. The owners, Clark & Jean, are doing a fabulous job at this charming deli in the Arroyo Grande village.
Such an awesome place to eat lunch and enjoy good food! Love sitting outside in beautiful downtown Arroyo Grande with a delicious sandwich and salad 🤤
We have been there several times and we just think it's the best deli anywhere. My son works in Arroyo Grande and when we go visit him, his wife and our two twin granddaughters we always try to go to lunch there on his lunch break. It's fast and easy and is great!

Great spot for yummy sandwiches etc. Lots of in & outdoor seating & great patio where they have live music on Fridays. We've been stopping in here for about 20 yrs. before we even moved here. Now, here we are, it's our local favorite spot right downtown. Ya just neva know, maybe we'll perform for them too sometime!
A perfect deli sandwich counter. Consistent, fresh, great staff, and a beautiful outdoor environment. The daily specials are awesome, too. I highly suggest trying the chili, it is exceptionally good!

We always make a point to stop in and enjoy a great meal at the Branch Street Deli, whenever we're at the coast. Excellent service, friendly people, amazing good and always a pleasant atmosphere.
Delicious. This is my husband and I's favorite place to go on the weekend. We take a walk around the village and come here. They always love seeing our little blue eyed baby when we come in. I love their Texas Tri-Tip wrap. Has melted chedder cheese and oh my is it yummy. Husband loves the hot pastrami. My favorite part is the prices for what you get. :D
Food was very tasty (I got the grilled cheese with bacon and fries), prices are pretty good. Nice outdoor seating area. Will definitely eat here again.
Awesome place for a sandwich, salad or burger. They serve beer on tap and local wines. Great patio seating, too!!
Excellent food and service! Its quick and taste so good.
This is the best in so many ways. Atmosphere, management, food and entertainment.
Top notch music, like Critical Mass. Great venue!
The food and atmosphere are both excellent here! We had a pizza for an appetizer and the fried chicken and soup salad combo. Everything tasted great and the service was on point as well. We'll be back for sure!
Important italian pizza oven, gorgeous outdoor lighting with heated patio, and super friendly staff. Thursday day night live music is just icing on the Double Chacolate Moose cake! (Which my girlfriend gets every visit lol)
Branch Street deli has a very comfortable patio and makes the best ortega, Jack cheese, grilled chicken sandwich!
Their service is great and they also have two bathrooms available. Highly recommended great stop for anyone who is in downtown Arroyo Grande
The bathrooms are consistently clean.
Update since remodel - 11/13/2023
Wow, what an upgrade! They have a huge pizza oven and the patio has been upgraded with new fur and padded seats.
You gotta try the pizzas and the gelato.
Fried chicken was okay. It needed better crispy crust. It had a fishy flavor/taste. Weird? Best fried chicken ever- a restaurant in Atlanta, GA, second best a restaurant named Golden Pride Chicken in Albuquerque, NM. Branch Street Deli & Pizzeria isn’t even on my Best 20 list.
Another person in my party said the Fried chicken was okay, but needed more seasoning.
Another person in the group said their Pizza was very good. Another person had the Shrimp carbonara and said it was great and They loved it.
The Beer selection was limitations. No lager beer was available? Everyone felt the food was a bit cold. Music was nice. Easy listening. Atmosphere was great. It’s really busy & staff is friendly.
Excellent Margherita Pizza and Bbq Chicken Pizza and Wedge Salad!!! Would appreciate if there had been non-IPA (non-bitter) beer on tap (dark or ales). The live music was appreciated, but duo was unfortunately off-key.
Big changes have been made to Branch Street as it is now a beautiful upscale Deli & Pizzeria with a huge Patio space. The menu features sandwiches, salads and pizzas as well as some other popular classics and having tried several of them including the BLT, tri tip wrap and a chicken salad can say this place is a GREAT ADDITION to the Village.
Only recommendation: A Water Dispenser outside :)
Great patio, sandos and salads are excellent. Italian style… can’t wait to go back and try the pizza!! I think they have live music on the patio sometimes too… tbd what the schedule is.
Had a large group for a rehearsal dinner. Accommodated 40 crazy people. Food was excellent from the unique pizzas to the yummy desert!
Pizza was phenomenal great crust and ambiance with the outdoor seating. Loved it will definitely be going back.
Really delicious BLT sandwich! The patio is lovely and the staff welcoming. HIGHLY recommend stopping here.
Very accommodating staff made my first trip to this deli a great one. Several options from vegetarian to tri tip sandos. Everything was well organized, clean and chill..the outdoor patio is from a fairytale. So quiet and tranquil. Staff was welcoming, informative and just generally made the visit one I'll remember.
The all-new, Branch Street Deli and pizzeria is a dramatic, and beautiful makeover of an Arroyo Grande Village classic.
