Warm friendly service, great food and cozy building. I'm under the impression their employees do some mission type work and help others in a community style with borderline religious vibe but they seem harmless. Great place to go for a warm meal!

Love this place! Very quirky. Perfect place to bring guests. Food is good.

Our favorite local restaurant for 20 years. The food is amazing. Always fresh made with options from homemade soup, sandwiches, to amazing baked goods and waffles and yogurt (with fresh fruit, coconut and drizzled honey) available all day. Also, their assortment of drinks is wonderful with our favorite being the iced or Hot Dandy, iced or Hot Joe and the Hibiscus Cooler. Atmosphere is so inviting. Natural wood, stained glass, lots of plants. You feel like you are in an indoor tree fort. In the nice weather you can sit outside on the covered balcony to dine or sit outside at tables along the beautiful creek. In addition the entire restaurant plus bathrooms are exceptionally clean. They also have a small section of their own soaps, lotions, maple syrup Etc.

Really enjoyed my Reuben sandwich. My three companions also enjoyed their lunch. The staff here is always very friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is a mix of Hobbiton and flexible forest.

Love this place! The food is so good and nourishing. Home cooked food, nothing artificial. The seating area is a work of art. And the staff, makes you feel like you're home.

The Yellow Deli in Oak Hill, New York, is more than just a restaurant—it’s an experience. Nestled in a beautifully restored two-story building in the heart of the hamlet, this hidden gem transports you to another world. As you step inside, it’s as if you’ve wandered into an enchanted treehouse in the middle of the forest. From the moment you walk across the gleaming hardwood floors and settle into the carved wooden booths—each one handcrafted with curvilinear precision—you are enveloped in warmth, charm, and intentional craftsmanship. The ambiance is both rustic and whimsical. Farm baskets have been ingeniously converted into hanging light fixtures, casting a soft, golden glow over each table. The interior design reflects a deep reverence for nature, simplicity, and community. The aroma of freshly baked bread and sweets fills the air, and if you’re lucky, you might find yourself enjoying your meal to the sounds of a live six-piece band tucked in the corner, elevating the entire experience to something utterly magical. Let’s talk about the food—crafted with care, creativity, and an unmistakable farm-to-table ethos. I started with their soup du jour, a velvety carrot ginger soup that struck a perfect balance between sweet and savory. It was delicately creamy, with just the right touch of ginger and a sprinkle of toasted slivered almonds for texture. The chili followed, bold and rich, with a slow-building spice that was warm and comforting. Their toasted sourdough bread was a masterpiece in itself—crisp, buttered crust on the outside, light and tender within. Every bite crackled slightly before melting in your mouth. The roast beef sandwich was tender, flavorful, and perfectly proportioned, with just the right meat-to-cheese ratio, all served on a warm, freshly baked roll. I also tried the combo roast beef and corned beef sandwich, which delivered a delightful kick of spice and robust flavor, making it an unforgettable choice. To cleanse the palate and refresh, I opted for the Catskill Mountain Mint Iced Herbal Tea, which was phenomenal. Lightly sweetened, fresh, and cooling—an ideal accompaniment to a hearty meal on a summer day. Naturally, I had to end on a sweet note, and the carrot cake with cream cheese frosting did not disappoint. Moist, spiced just right, and generously frosted—it was divine. Inside the Yellow Deli, you’ll also find a charming mini country market, where they offer an impressive assortment of handmade soaps, botanical lotions, herbal teas, granolas, local honey, pure maple syrup, and house-baked goods. It’s a lovely place to pick up a thoughtful gift or something special to take home. Whether you’re passing through or making this a destination, The Yellow Deli is a treasure along the Catskill Creek—a place where time slows down, and every detail invites you to savor, reflect, and return. “Food that feeds the soul, beauty that speaks volumes, and travel that tells a story always through the eyes of Italy Loves India.” — Alyson Savino IG: Alysonnyc212 #YellowDeli #AlysonNYC212 #OakHillNY #CatskillEats #HiddenGemsNY #FarmToTable #TreehouseVibes #RusticDining #EnchantingEats #LocallySourced #CountryMarketFinds #HerbalTeaLovers #RoastBeefPerfection #CarrotCakeCravings #ChiliDoneRight #SoupSeason #CraftedWithCare #SmallTownCharm #LiveMusicEats #CatskillCreekViews

We was in a town just for a day and stopover to get some late and sandwich break! Everything was very nice - interior was unique and pleasant, food was delicious (ordered roast beef sandwich, waffle with fruits, mint latte and chai latte) and service was very attentive! Will come back again!

I love this place. The staff are so kind and helpful and the atmosphere is so relaxing. Their creamy cheese pie is a delight and so is everything else. I also love their hot apple cider. We came here for 2 weeks and came 3 times. No disappointment each time. I'm French, so I'm demanding when it comes to food, and frankly, it's very good.
