Woods End Delicatessen & Catering

I always come here and I will always love it. I normally get the Barnum or Seaside Special, but everything else is just as good. Sign up for email updates and Fred will send you a weekly special menu, it’s great to stay in the loop here.

Alwas try to get ovet to woods end as often as possible. fred an felix are great guys. Soups and brisket are my favorites but everything is good.

Damn I an cautious to give a place a 5 at where I only ate once so this is actually my fault for only eating here one time. Best burger at a deli I think I have ever had… Ever. And what a cool place inside. It’s like a Bridgeport French bistro without trying to be… Damn those cookies! Some of the other stuff on the menu looked so good that people ordered. So good so good. !

I went here with high expectations after a friend saw something about woods end on Facebook recommending it.
I tried the ruben and eastside special (which someone praised in a previous post). The ruben was ok at best and skimpy on the meat. In my opinion, if you are serving a sandwich in the borderline ghetto of Bridgeport for almost 8 dollars it better be either extremely good tasting or massive, this was neither.
The eastsider was a real disappointment. The bread was mediocre, roast beef was standard roast beef you get anywhere, peppers were extremely bland and their horseradish has no bite whatsoever. I doubt they make their horseradish so I highly recommend switching to a different brand. The worst part of this was the size, for 8 dollars it had a very small amount of meat. They also charge 5 dollars for a small soup which seems a bit high.
This seems like a place for people who just want to sip on a coffee for an hour and read the paper so if that’s your thing, you might enjoy woods end deli.
With so many options nearby, I will definitely not be going back.

Great sandwiches, salads and specials. Fred and Felix make you feel at home. The number of regulars here says it all.

Beef Brisket to die for! Great for breakfast and lunch. The perfect neighborhood deli with standard and specialty sandwiches too. Also, does catering. You can’t go wrong here!

Woods End is a great local deli – where everybody knows your name. Open for breakfast and lunch, the food is delicious – from bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches to soup to salads. The atmosphere is very low key – order at the counter, and they’ll bring your order to the table. An tin ceiling and comfortable chairs make it a good place to hang out, read the paper, catch up with people, and enjoy great food! (also take out)
