Wicker Basket - MENDHAM
Wicker Basket
Description
A family-run Brookside deli earns praise for standout breakfast sandwiches, warm owners and generally prompt, attentive service that has built a loyal local following. However, guests report inconsistent food quality — occasionally pre-made or dried-out sandwiches — and rare unpleasant interactions that contrast with otherwise welcoming hospitality. Ideal for commuters and regulars seeking classic deli fare, it’s recommended for its breakfast offerings but with modest caution about freshness on some items.

Wicker Basket is a timeless deli that many of us crave in an era where chain restaurants have increasingly taken the place of local businesses. The service is fast and welcoming, and the sandwiches are prepared exactly as you desire. Be sure to try the half and half iced tea and the chocolate chip banana bread—they're must-have items that complement your meal perfectly. I typically place my order in person and am back in my car in less than five minutes.
The food was outstanding, and the service was prompt. Unfortunately, I also came across some of the rudest individuals I’ve ever encountered. Their demeanor was quite unpleasant.
I haven't come across another deli that can match the exceptional service and quality offered at Wicker Basket. The owners and staff are wonderful, treating me like family with every visit. Their breakfast sandwiches are the best in New Jersey, consistently perfect and well-balanced with each bite. I highly recommend trying the #6! Even if you're in a rush, they ensure you're taken care of quickly and efficiently. Everything moves at a faster pace here compared to other places—your lunch is ready and you’re on your way in just minutes!
I’ve been coming here since high school nothing beats a half half with a Taylor egg and cheese on a roll from here!
Great “old school” deli. I used to live in NYC most of my life before moving to Mendham. So I know how fast and consistent a good deli or coffee shop can operate. I never thought a small town shop could be faster than a popular NYC deli. But Wicker is actually faster. In the morning you can be in and out in 45 seconds. It’s incredible. And the people are nice.
