This is one of situations where I "found" this place again after many years. Used to come her back in the 80s when I worked in this area. Almost weekly. Great big menu, lots of great sandwiches, soup, chili and even dessert. Meatless sandwich options too. Ordered the Tomato Bisque Soup, an amazing Turkey Avocado on focaccia and a Pastrami Sandwich, on rye made the traditional way. No pickles. Great little shop, family owned. When he described his father I knew that was the man I used to order from back in the day. Walls show plaques and pictures showing their contributions to the community such as sponsoring many baseball teams and a proud sponsor of dozens of Rose Bowl Parade floats. A grade, clean, plenty of seating but for the most part I think people get it to go. Still can't believe it's been here for this long and I was here 40 yrs ago. . Yelp hours are incorrect, better call and see. Also closed Sunday and Monday now. Prices were very cheap, however the owner stated the menu is changing soon. Seems like this is the last place to raise their prices like everyone else's. Def worth a visit. When back the next day and got a Tuna Melt which was also good. Best around. Nostalgia helps

Great Sandwiches....The Pastrami is Delicious!! The tomato bisque soup & chili are delicious & perfect on a cold rainy day. Owners & staff are friendly & welcoming. Seating area is also welcoming & always clean. My favorite sandwich stop in the Foothills!

Been going here since the early 90 s with the same guy remembering what I eat and making my sandwich, then he moved to the register and trained the next guy to do it. I love this place. You will too.

I dream about their sandwiches. Probably the best sandwich i’ve ever had! The tuna melt is soooo good. The bread they use is amazing as well. Every time I am in town I have to stop by at least once.

Hit this place up by chance today and was so happy we did. Me and my son each loved our sandwich- i got a hot pastrami and he got a turkey. He's a notoriously picky eater, yet he loved his as much as I did. On top of all that the service was quick and friendly and overall great experience. Support small businesses like these. It's so important.

My recent visit to Berge's left everything to be desired, with unfortunate consequences. Too bad too, I was really looking forward to having a new go to sandwich place. Regrettably, I got food poisoning after eating their pastrami sandwich for lunch this past Thursday. This, understandably, impacted my perception of the establishment. I will not be coming back to Berge's. Beyond the health concerns, the quality of the pastrami sandwich itself was subpar. The rye bread was disappointingly soggy, and the pastrami, rather than being succulent, was extremely dry. For those craving a superior pastrami experience, I'd recommend exploring other options in the area. Schreiner's Fine Sausages offers a better pastrami sandwich that won't make you ill.

This place is perfect if you are craving a classic deli sandwich for a good price. They have an option for everyone including salads, soups, sweets, meatless sandwiches, cold sandwiches, hot sandwiches, and deli sandwiches. This place has everything yet everything is so simple!! This sandwich shop feels like you're in a movie as well from the wood paneled walls, retro decor, and it is so clean. Their stock for their sodas, produce, etc is laid out on the ground near the register which is such a sweet and almost un-ironic touch if that's even a word. There were three people working in the restaurant this day. The prep worker, the cook, and the owner of the restaurant. Everyone was so sweet, happy, and attentive. No complaints on any fronts! I put 4 stars for the restaurant because it wasn't the most beautiful and best sandwich I have ever had, BUT I appreciated everything else about it!!! Would definitely come here again and again and have already recommended it to friends who live in the area.

Great sandwiches! I've come here for years and you can't go wrong with anything. Turkey avocado is great, roast beef with cream cheese and olives is a superior unexpected surprise of flavor. Also, the pastrami on rye is great on a cold day. The tomato bisque is on point as well for a cold day in a delicious wonderland.
WOW! Have been involved with a NexDoor forum on tuna melts and the posters raved abut Berge's. Had the tuna melt, $10, and it was spectacular. Superfresh rustic bread, perfectly fried. Tuna salad was spiced. Cheese melty and flavorful. Tomato bisque was some of the best I have ever had! Can't wait to go back!

Pastrami Sandwich was amazing bread was so fresh! Very much made with Love. The Reuben was also amazing and I loved the thousand island sauce on it!
Alex Z.
