Monroe's Market & Deli, San Diego CA

Absolute best bodega in San Diego! They’ve got BOMB sandwiches and a crazy wide selection of every food or drink or condiment possible! They’ve got all this super quality, specific stuff you’d have to go to a bigger store for typically, and they’ve also got all the classics. And the staff is so nice. If I could only go to this store all the time, I would

Love this place!
Their deli sandwiches are some of the best I’ve ever had, fresh ingredients and reasonable prices.
This market also has everything you may need if you are in a quick pinch and don’t have time to run to the supermarket.
Friendly and welcoming staff as well!

Current sale on all flavored tobacco products.this includes menthol cigarettes.

Love this neighborhood corner store. It has a great deli for awesome sandwiches & salads. But best of all are the wine choices and at such great prices. Many of the wines are discounted if one buy's two of the same wine. Right now I am loving the Motto Unabashed 2014 Zinfandel @ 12.99 or two for $20. They are open 8 am to 10 PM seven days a week. Enjoy!

They have stuff like avocadoes and cheese. Certain sandwiches default come as wraps. Just paid $12 for a blta in a tortilla and they said they'll give me free avocado next time no pickles either

I was driving up and saw a bunch of people waiting outside so I decide to grab and sandwich at the deli. The place is super small but they have a great selection of drinks (awesome beers) and other liquor. I grabbed a turkey sandwich and a 4 pack of Residents brewing compadre lager. Solid place for a quick pick up and the people working were quick and nice

My wife ordered through Doordash and she wanted a cold sandwich and this one came on toast. Toast gets hard real quick and she hoped for good homemade potato salad but this potato salad was the same kind you find at Walmart in the plastic tub for $4.00 and was very tiny for the price. Please make toast an option only.

Monroes Market has a good selection of cold drinks and snacks, pantry items, and they make a solid sandwich (try the smoked turkey BBQ). But I'm here to talk about the owner Teddy.

Teddy is always welcoming and friendly. He makes sure that you find whatever you're looking for and I've also had him offer to order things that he didn't carry.

But Teddy went above and beyond when I was involved in a hit-and-run auto accident that happened down the street. He spent over an hour going through his surveillance video footage trying to help me track down the maniac who hit me. We weren't able to find her but I sure appreciated Teddy taking the time out of his day to help me out.

Thank you Teddy!

After dropping my wife off at the airport, and driving back to work I realized I hadn't had lunch and was feeling a bit hungry. I asked Google about nearby Italian deli's, and Monroe's Market came up. In my experience the best sandwiches are usually found at a deli within a local market, and I was pleased to find out that this is the case with Monroe's.

I decided on their Italian Sub. The sub roll was very fresh (this HAS to be the case for a good sandwich) and the ingredient, both meat and fixings, were high quality and fresh (they use Boars Head products). The two young women running the deli were friendly and informative about their menu items. The sandwich was delicious. I'll be happy when I'm back in the area so I can pay them another visit.

This place is awesome. Great beer, liquor and wine selection. They have excellent sandwiches made with high quality and fresh ingredients. Vapes and snacks at decent prices. What else to say? It's convenient, it's my neighborhood corner store.

Walked a mile to get this sandwich and I'll be doing it again tomorrow. Excellent meat quality and the rosemary sourdough is fantastic. Good beer selection too!

Love this corner store. They have a great beer selection. The staff is always friendly. They have snacks, ice cream, milk, heavy cream, deli meats, batteries, etc. All sorts of convenient things for neighbors to walk to and buy. Also the sandwiches and salads made at the counter inside are delicious and a good price. Please tip the ladies who make you a yummy sandwich well. There are seats outside to enjoy your food and nonalcoholic drink at too.

This nice little corner store has everything you could think of! Staff are so friendly. The deli in here never disappoints. The sandwiches are delicious as they are made with boars head meat/cheeses. You can go off the menu or build your own sandwich and make it however you like! Overall awesome place with great staff and food!

Walked in for some gum and a drink walked out with one of the best sandwiches you could get in a corner store deli in town. Ver pleasant suprise

Easily the best veggie sandwich. Overall sandwich quality comparable to The Marketplace in Bankers Hill. Great staff. Hidden gem.

Love this place as my local sandwich shop. They cut back on the meat the put in the sandwiches a bit (or so it seems) since the pandemic but they're still good.

Extensive selection of all kinds of beer, but no liquor at this store. The Deli looks great but I’ve never eaten there.
