$4 upcharge for gluten-free bread! For 1 sandwich!I stopped in for a kids grilled cheese for my daughter while we were out in the Junction. $6 for a kids grilled cheese already seemed a little steep, but my jaw hit the counter when I asked for gluten free since my daughter cant eat gluten and the person working the register told me it was $10.91 after tax. When I asked about the $4 additional charge he acknowledged it was really expensive, but nothing he could do. Is gluten free bread more expensive typically, yes. But when you can buy a whole loaf for $6-$7 and then turn around and charge $4 for 2 slices?! That's outrageous. Husky Deli is a community staple and generally decent food, but I will not come again. There are 8 other lunch choices within a 2 block radius that acknowledge and accept dietary needs vs gouging for them.

Good sandwiches but terrible service. The guys seemed much more focused on chatting and joking together than preparing food. As crazy as it sounds, it took a little more than 20 mins to make me a sandwich while I was the only one in line and they were 5-6 behind the counter. Then they were hesitant to give me my sandwich because they didn't remember me ordering.No harm done and I still left a big tip - will update my review if I have better experiences there in the future

Their food is really good but the wait times are long for sandwiches. The real shame though is the $4 (!) upcharge for Franz gluten free bread. Guys I know this bread costs $5-$6 at Safeway, I buy it all the time. You're making what should be a nice lunch stop completely unaffordable for your gluten free customers.Your food is good, especially your ice cream but I can't eat here again until you lower the charge on gf bread. It's the highest upcharge I've seen in the area

I like this place for unique imported sauces, sweets, and other English cooking ingredients. Apparently they were having supply chain problems so out of a lot of stuff this visit. Also, they are moving down the road at some point to a new development. The young staff is always nice. Will go back again at some point when things normalize a bit.

It always smells delicious inside the store and the sandwiches are excellent and the ice cream is the best. Great place to take the kids and family.

Best deli in West Seattle! Fresh, quality ingredients prepared with love and skill. Baguette and focaccia breads are fantastic, and you can buy the 'day old' loafs to take home with you. Cannot say anything bad about this place.

My favorite sandwich place! The Turkish Delight is absolutely delicious. Their ice cream flavors are also amazing. There are a lot of different candies as well.

Oh man I wish I had discovered this place earlier...so I can always have their delicious, huge sandwiches when I need a quick but good breakfast in West Seattle.They have an expansive sandwich menu, from which I tried like Rosie's on my first visit and absolutely loved it. Portion is generous, ingredients feel fresh, tastes are great, very appetizing and satisfying. I had a customized sandwich the second time, but I think Rosie's is the real deal.Besides sandwiches (and ice ceam), you'll find all kinds of pantry items and provisions in the store. I got a bottle of peanut butter with espresso nibs, it's so good that I finished it in less than one week, haha.

Good food but take out only still. Good vegitarian options and great soup ?

Great ice cream and good sandwiches. Wait time can be long so make sure to order ahead.
