Excellent food and atmosphere. The entire staff and owner were very friendly and helpful I had the meatloaf sandwich,
First of all, don't be discouraged if the place is mobbed. Just grab a number and you get to order quickly. They make it fast, around 15 minutes for 4 sandwiches during peak hours on a Sunday. Plenty of cold drinks also. The bread is very nice: crunchy, delicate, and moist. Meatball sandwich was tasty, as was the breaded chicken pesto. Both tasted like they were were made with authentic ingredients (non-generic). Great location, our go-to sandwich spot when we go to downtown Santa Cruz in the afternoon!

Here for a family wedding. I am from Florida, and my nephew was in charge of finding the best places for food and lunch was on the hunt. We decided on sandwiches and he found Zoccoli's. We found street parking and headed inside. It was a busy place but it was quick and easy to order. I got the BLT with avocado. There is plenty of tables outside but we opted to go back to our hotel to eat in the beautiful courtyard. I was so happy with my selection. The bacon was crispy and the tomato, lettuce and avocado were selected for the makings of the perfect combination. The rest of my family loved their sandwiches too. This is definitely a go-to sandwich shop. Btw- it's a little store too, so getting chips, chocolate or something else is an option.

What's for lunch? Zoccoli's Italian Deli. Another local fav with the best sandwiches and bread. I go back and forth between a basic turkey sandwich, but today I was craving a French dip. This deli is awesome, they have a variety of specialty sandwiches, desserts, cheese, and even wine. They are located in downtown Santa Cruz at the end near the town clock.
They do get crowded at lunch time so you may want to look online and pre-order so you don’t have to wait too long when you arrive.
I wish I would have taken before photos. Very clean organized Italian Deli. Staff was super polite and helpful. I ordered turkey on ciabatta bread. Deeeelicous! Everything was so fresh. That Was my first time, but definitely not my last. I'm from fresno and it reminds me of our Sam's Deli here. Can't wait to go back there.
This deli is AMAZING! A friend of mine took me here to share and I had the New Yorker and it was delicious! It's a deli that you pick a number ticket and wait for your turn, it was quite busy, understandably since the quality. There were sandwiches, deli pastas and other yummy food along with other frozen food that they made. Plenty of drink selection along with a variety of different wine bottles to purchase. There was plenty of seating outside to enjoy the weather and a sandwich.
In Santa Cruz for a one night get-away, my fiance and I embarked on a hilarious and fun filled scavenger hunt. On our first challenge, I noticed a line out the door of a Sandwich shop. Knowing that this is usually a sign of really good food, I noted the name. Well, right after we finished the game, we drove right back to Zoccoli's! The line went very quickly and after scanning the list of sandwiches, I ordered the Muffaletta and a Dill pickle. I was SO excited, just for the fact that they had it on the menu!! The order & pay situation is a little confusing, but I didn't care; they make Muffaletta!! LOL. I paid and waited for about 7-8 minutes and got my order. The sourdough bread was soft and had a great flavor. The meats/cheese and the olive tapenade were all fresh and plentiful. It was made almost as good as back home in Louisiana! The Dill pickle was crisp, fresh and so good. I can hardly wait to go back and try something else. This deli is the REAL DEAL.
Great atmosphere, down to earth italian deli. If you're in from out of town it's at the end of the downtown area which is perfect after a long walk of shopping. The order process is well executed (take a number) Prices are very reasonable, especially for Cali. Best of all, the food is excellent.
