Masterfully stacked sandwiches and rich, velvety egg creams celebrate the simple perfection of American deli classics, served with a side of brisk, old-school charm. It is a vibrant sanctuary in the heart of the city, where the crackle of a crisp pickle and the warmth of a perfectly pressed melt offer a timeless taste of New York soul.

What diners are saying
Diners celebrate S&P Lunch as a worthy successor to Eisenberg’s, preserving the beloved low-key luncheonette vibe with efficient, hardworking service. Guests rave about the exceptional pastrami on rye—often compared favorably to famous competitors—along with standout cheeseburgers, crispy fries, and the "best" BLTs. While the narrow space and counter seating create a cozy, nostalgic atmosphere where patrons can watch their food being made, experiences with service vary from incredibly friendly to occasionally unwelcoming management.
