Kelley’s Deli

This place is my favorite restaurant ever. The food is brilliant and the service is quick and friendly. The potato soup is absolutely necessary, I don’t care what you are getting as a meal, I suggest this as an appetizer or even in place of a side no matter what. That’s not to say the sides aren’t worth it though, everything comes out tasting great. If you like steak and cheese, get the Steak Philly, it’s messy and delicious and absolutely superb. If I could, I would eat here every day of the week.

This place is always packed! Friendly staff and the food is good (normal breakfast food, haven’t been for lunch yet) prices are fair too. Definitely worth the stop!

Good breakfast and lunch! Clean place, friendly staff! Worth a visit or two! Highly recommended!

I wasn’t very happy with the corned beef hash. Being an Irish restaurant, you would think that they could do better than canned hash. Also, my husband has the lobster roll. They claim it’s «leg and claw» meat??? No. That’s called imitation meat. For $ 9.99, being imitation I think they could throw another dollop on the roll as well. I would love to see more diet friendly options added to the menu.

I checked out Kelley’s on a busy Sunday morning. They were packed and it took some time for someone to acknowledge me (the same was true of the guy in front of me). While that’s not OK, it is understandable. Once I did get service, the lady that helped me was courteous. She was clearly overwhelmed by the rush, but she remain composed and cracked a joke or two.
The cash register window provides a clear view into the kitchen. I liked what I saw: People were busy but working together, focused on what they were doing, each had an assignment, the work area was pretty tidy (considering). Everyone was on their feet; no counter-​sitters like at The Pizza Lady.
My breakfast was good; not remarkable, just good, and that’s OK. The Manhattan Reuben was fine. The «Manhattan» means it’s bigger; otherwise, it was a pretty standard Reuben. The issue with the Meat Lovers omelet was the lack of cheese; there wasn’t enough. The potatoes it was served with (deep-​fried home fry things) were nothing special. The highlight was the cinnamon and vanilla French toast. This was downright good. It’s standard, thin bread (ie not thick French toast), but the flavor was nice.
I recommend Kelley’s; I’ll be going back. Next time, I’m going to try some of the «more traditional Irish» dishes.

Happened upon this place accidentally on the way home from a trip a few years ago. So happy to have found it! I live about forty minutes away, but it’s worth the drive if I’m awake early enough to have breakfast. I have only ever tried the Irish Breakfast because it’s so freaking good that I can’t bring myself to stray. I’m a huge fan of their potato cakes. They are perfectly seasoned mashed potato patties with a light, slightly crispy outer crust. I would pay someone lots of money to deliver them to me at my whim if it were possible. Yum.
The service is friendly and fast, it’s always been bustling when I’ve gone there. Super clean and the décor is cute. Love this place.

Excellent breakfast, prices are very fair and service was fast! All 4 of us enjoyed our food this Sunday morning.

I give it 4 stars because i don’t give 5 unless it is a life changing experience.
My second trip to Kelley’s. Service was great. Waiter was polite, personable, and quick. I had an Irish b-​fast. Eggs are eggs, they were done correctly. Bangers are great, flavorful and juicy. Irish potato cakes were perfect. Nicely browned on the outside, soft and hot inside… so good.
I will go back. Both trips there were great food, great value.

The best. Absolutely cannot recommend this place enough for breakfast. Ended up eating there by (good) luck. Excellent food. Excellent service. We will go out of our way to go back again.

Great food, great helpings, great pricing!
Very friendly staff… Owner Kevin is great if you get a chance to meet him while he’s not busy in the kitchen! Nice «Irish» flair as well!
Go for the Irish Benedict with a side of Hash… Your belly will say «Thank you!»

The best breakfast and lunch in the entire area is here. I am always drawn to their specials. They are always surprising. This weekend I had a breakfast that was a combination of eggs Benedict and biscuits and gravy. It was delicious
Along with good food, they have a great staff. They make the great food experience even better. The coffee flows from the minute you sit down until you leave. It is not as fancy as the Watch Hill places, but it is better than any others.

Out of this world fantastic breakfast. Great food at great prices. 5 of us had full meals 1 of us had a breakfast sandwich and the bill came to $ 27. The wait staff is friendly and attentive.

This is a great diner in Westerly, Rhode Island. It’s in a cute shopping center a few miles away from the beach where we were staying. You definitely need a car to get here.
Very charming décor, lots of cute and funny signs and slogans about Irish culture.
There’s plenty to chose from on the breakfast menu– eggs, omelette, pancakes, French toast and breakfast sandwiches. They also have daily breakfast specials which are worth checking out. Food was good, the first visit I had raisin bread French toast, and the second visit I had a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich on a kaiser roll. My friends enjoyed their eggs, and the kids French toast sticks were adorable, but deep fried and pretty greasy once they cooled off.
Service was great. The waitresses were friendly and attentive. Also the coffee was surprisingly good.
They brought crayons and coloring page style placemats for the kids, and as we left each child got to pick a toy from the you box.

We were «hiding out for the weekend» in a cabin over in Charlestown and wanted a hearty breakfast without having to do all the work. Score! Trust the Unilocal.We went back the next morning before leaving. Yummy. Try something new. Thank You.

Dispels the myth about Irish cooking

It is a forty five minute drive for us to get breakfast, but we cannot wait to go back! We checked out the menu before we went and knew we had to visit. «banger and whiskey onions» is an omelet to die for. So is the «irish benedict» (my only reason for not giving 5 stars is that the corned beef was not sliced from from a roast it was out of a can)
We are raving about this place, we were happy to then visit downtown Main Street area and the new Chinese bakery, also fabulous!

The best place to eat breakfast and lunch in Westerly. Great owners and staff that pride themselves in serving great, quality food, all the time.

Went for lunch & four of us were seated at a relatively small table so we were kind of smushed together– perhaps because we had kids with us? At least we all like each other.
Anyway, the food was good. I had a baked potato soup that was very tasty, the kids enjoyed their sandwiches as did my husband. It’s a cute little restaurant & the breakfast menu looks good– we’ll probably go back to try breakfast in the near future (wish they served breakfast all day). Four of us ate for less than $ 20, which is amazing, & everyone was pleased. Not overwhelmed, but perfectly content.
The menu is a bit confusing as the breakfast menu is prominently featured, even though they don’t serve it for more than half of their day… we figured it out though, so I guess it’s not that confusing. I had to ask about the soup because it’s not on their menu at all– my husband had noticed it when we walked in on the board. Only my mentioning that I really wished they had soup made him say, «oh– I think they do!» & then the waitress told us which soups they offered… so I wish they’d add a «soup of the day» to the menu (or if it’s there, I didn’t see it).
But we’ll definitely return– I’m looking forward to trying their breakfast.

I love love love Kelley’s Deli. I eat here probably twice a month for lunch since my work is right around the corner. The front counter staff is always very pleasant and chatty if they’re not getting slammed.
I’ve NEVER had a bad meal here. Favorites are the Irish Lunch, Grilled Raisin Bread Chicken Salad and the footlong hotdog with sauerkraut. YUMMMMMMM.

I may be a bit biased because my mon worked there for quite a few years but…
I love this place!!! The owners Shannon and Kevin Kelley are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met and love their business/​food and take Irish culture to heart.
Even after my mom left Kelley’s I continued to visit with friends and family for lunch or breakfast. The prices are very good, and the service is always friendly and everyone is willing to help you and give you refills! It’s a clean and friendly environment that you’ll never forget.
When i go for breakfast i usually get the cheese omelet (with provolone), which comes with home fries and Italian bread (they have many different kinds). Sometimes I even get their breakfast sandwich to take home because it’s soo good. Usually I go to breakfast with 3 people and the bill is always around $ 30. $ 10 for a great breakfast is great, and most of their food is under $ 10 anyway.
Other than that for lunch try the potato chowder and the Swiss mushroom burger! Yum! I recently moved to New Jersey and this is definitely one I the places I miss the most, haven’t found a place nearly as good here.
Go and I promise a great experience– but you might want to go early on weekend, it’s an extremely popular place and usually a big line!
