Pancer’s Original Deli - Toronto, Ontario

Pancer's is about as old school deli diner as you can get. It is a smallish restaurant which I imagine can get easily filled during busy periods. Coming in just after they open the place was pretty empty and the service was very quick and friendly. Now for the ... important part the food and in particular the corned beef sandwich. The meat was excellent, moist and not too salty and the bread phenomenal very fresh and soft. If I were to nit pick I would say that the meat could have been sliced a little thicker for a better mouth feel but that is more of a personal preference. If you are in the neck of the woods definitely worth a visit. Read more

I ordered twice from Pancer’s in the past week on UberEATS. First time tried the popular corned beef, pastrami, and roast beef sandwiches. All travelled well, massive and were insanely good. I like that I had the choice of lean or medium for the roast beef (I chose lean). Second ... time had a houseful of hungry people and ordered corned beef and pastrami as well as potato salad and pickles. Everyone loved it, “where are these from?!” I’ve ordered and tried deli sandwiches from others (smaller, often too salty, less meat), and Pancer’s beat them all in quality and price. Warm juicy sandwiches filled with tender, thinly sliced meats that isn’t too salty…it warrants a real visit. If it’s this good after traveling 30 mins in a steamy paper bag, it must be even better in person. Love that they took the time to thank me for the UberEATS rating, nobody ever does that. Thank you Pancer’s, see you soon! Read more

Wow! Amazing smoked meat, fresh, large portions, excellent service, good prices. Best Montreal style smoked meat in the city, since 1957. Highly recommend.

Everything about this place is fantastic! From the food to the service. I came here on a Sunday around 11am with my mom to get some corned beef sandwiches. Parking was easy to find and the restaurant had a few people sitting down and enjoying their meals. Service was quick ... and friendly. We ordered the medium cut of corned beef and it was delicious. They have the mustard on the table, so you can control how much you want to put on. Also, the coleslaw that comes with the dish.. probably one of my favourites that I’ve ever tried. The pickle was definitely the cherry on top! Very tasty. Read more

I would say Pancer's is my number one choice for a great deli in Toronto. Very cozy, relaxed atmosphere. We had great service from Gabriella who answered all our questions and made great suggestions. She was very attentive, even brought us containers before we asked her for our take home bag. ... The portions were delicious and substantial !!! We were three and ordered Reuben, Chopped liver platter and the Corned Beef Sandwich. Highly recommend this deli!! Read more
