Introducing Urban Deli

Perhaps the biggest change to the Food Court this year is the introduction of Urban Deli, Carleton’s very own custom sandwich shop!

According to Executive Chef Daniel Poulin, Urban Deli is inspired by the traditional Italian sandwich shop, and will focus on putting fresh, locally sourced ingredients into every sandwich we make. 

We’ll be featuring bread from a number of local Ottawa bakeries, such as a baguette and Kevin’s Dynamite Loaves from Art-is-in Bakery near Hintonburg, and our cheese bread from the Portuguese Bakery just outside of the Byward Market. In total we’ll have 7 fresh, local bread options to choose from!

We’ll also be featuring a variety of meats from local butchers, such as our Jambon Blanc from a small charcutier in Montreal, and we’ve sourced quality vegetables from a variety of farms in Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec, including cucumbers from Rideau Pines Farms for our pickles! 

With over 35 toppings to choose from, there are more than 10 million possible combinations to put in your sandwich!

In a rush? In addition to offering custom sandwiches, Urban Deli will also feature a grab and go section that features the same quality ingredients. For sides, we have a variety of salads and soups, plus a bakery section filled with delicious desserts such as biscotti and cookies.

Sandwiches start at just $7.29, and you can add a side (soup or salad) for just $2.99. 

While we are of course excited for you to try out Urban Deli, there are a number of other changes coming to the food court for you to consider as well, including the new pizza at The Market.
