The Village Deli

The Village Deli is a B-town staple for breakfast, lunch, or anything in between. We stopped by for brunch recently and enjoyed it. We tried Paxton's Potatoes, breakfast tacos and a pancake with strawberries. The breakfast tacos were alright, but the stars of the show were Paxton's Potatoes and the pancake. The potatoes are topped with sausage gravy, cheese, scrambled eggs and chives. The pancake was probably 10" in diameter and each bite was delicious. One quirky thing to point out is the ceiling in the dining room to the left dips downward like a reverse A frame and the point was right above our table which felt a bit claustrophobic.

Food is always great. Service is sometimes slow,but, not over the top. You can sit inside or out. The inside tables have bench style seating so it can be hard on the bum,but the food is worth it.

Had breakfast here and we were both happy with what we got. The French toast had the option of a fresh fruit topping, which came with a massive portion of strawberries, and the breakfast tacos had an excellent jalapeño & avocado sauce. The staff got us seated quickly, and the food didn't take long to get to us. My only complaint, as is often the case nowadays, is the price. We spent more than expected, but we certainly got good quality items for that cost.

This place is a campus icon at Indiana University, right on Kirkwood. Don't let the name Deli mislead you. I think they are more known for breakfast than lunch. It's actually more of a dinner than a deli. But they serve a good solid breakfast.I derped in on a weekday, so I had no wait and the experience was great. I have passed the place up many times on a weekend morning, when Kirkwood and the hung over folks waiting for breakfast are a bit of a mess from the night before. There always seems to be a lot of people waiting to get in on weekends.

I come here semi-regularly, but today was incredible. This is the place for the PERFECT Eggs Benedict!!! From the crispy English Muffin, perfectly poached egg and the best Hollandaise sauce I've ever had! Highly recommend.

Absolutely would recommend. Start with a glass ofOrange juice...... ahhh yep. Now that is what the rest of the food is like. 10/10 would recommend. I never eat breakfast, frankly don't care for it. This place has me craving breakfast.

Great service and they have had the best biscuits and gravy in Bloomington for decades. I am willing to bet the other food is good too but since I can't go here and not get biscuits and gravy, I really can't say for sure. Street parking can sometimes be a problem it's not too expensive if you find a place...(it's easier with the ParkMobile app so take this as a recommendation for that as well).

Wonderful food, wonderful service!!!!!Our server was terrific!!!!!!The Breakfast Taco was the best with jalapeño, avocado sauce. Will be back!

First they dont have any physical menus, its all digital. I dont care for that at all when I am eating inside.This place was not very busy at all, which is fine. Some reviews say its always busy and thats just not the case.The ambiance is extremely outdated and their seating is bad for most people.Now for the good is the cornbeef hash. Very tasty but its overpriced and you dont get much of it. The omelet was average at best, looks better than it is. You have to pay for each item in your omelet. Theres a base price and you add from there. I have no liking to that concept at all. The bacon was bacon bits in the omelet which is fine if its actual bacon cooked up and sliced down but seemed to be store bought.All in all theres no way id come back here. The price was $30 for all, seems outrageous right. That includes tip.

Standard breakfast spot in Bloomington. The BEST home fries I've had yet. VERY flavorful while also being crunchy potatoes! Breakfast croissant didn't really have much cheese. Everything else in general was pretty mid. The best part were the potatoes but nothing outstanding compared to other places. Could find cheaper elsewhere in terms of price
