Mateo's Deli & Bagels | Our Story
The deli Baldwin rearranges its mornings for
Family-owned and rooted in Baldwin — Mateo's on Merrick Road is the kind of place regulars can't walk past. Good food, genuine care, every single day.
How it started
Mateo's opened with one clear purpose: to be the neighborhood deli Baldwin actually deserved — fresh ingredients, real portions, and no shortcuts. That commitment hasn't changed since day one.
The food
Bagels baked at sunrise, stacked chicken cutlet heroes, the Healthy Man Omelette keeping regulars coming back daily — everything made to order, every time.
More than a deli
The menu stretches into Latin specialties — tacos, empanadas, and the El Canelo you won't find anywhere nearby. Mateo's reflects the community it feeds.
The people at the counter
Regulars come back for the food — and for staff like Elvin, who treat every customer like family. That's why the 4.8-star rating keeps climbing.
