The best ham and cheese sandwich in Ottawa. Used to work around the area and usually find myself in the massive line up during lunch hour. Good selection of deli sandwich and dessert. My all time favorite is the simple ham and cheese sandwich. My sister who lives in Vancouver requests at least half dozen everytime I go back visit.

German Town Deli is a small deli and grocer located downtown. They open and close early. I've seen employees locking up the restaurant around 4pm. If you're looking to pick up an inexpensive, home made sandwich and you eat meat, this is a great option. Be advised that this restaurant is not right for vegetarians and vegans.
I would say German Town Deli makes the 2nd or 3rd best sandwich in Ottawa. They are great, but no one tops Di Rienzo's. They offer baked goods, deli meats, sandwiches made with their baked goods and deli meats, bottled and canned drinks and an assortment of German foods.
Their sandwiches start at 2ish dollars, which is an amazing deal. German Town Deli is also known for their delicious 2$ cheese cake. I've tried it and it's deliciously intense. If you show up during the "lunch rush", from around noon to one thirty, there's usually a line that spans across the store. The line generally moves quickly so don't worry.
There is no seating at German Town Deli. However, when the weather is nice, you can pick up a sandwich and eat outside. If you ever needed to cater a small event with meat-only sandwiches, I would consider picking some up from here. -

The freshest bread and rolls, the tastiest cold cuts and spreads, at the best prices. That pretty well sums up German Town, a stalwart from the days of serving a quality, take out sandwich lunch for under two dollars. Service is genuine, but the line up still moves quickly. If you are in downtown Ottawa, and are looking for really good take out at a really good price, this is it. Ham, ham and cheese, salami, beerwurst, liverwurst, and just plain cheese sandwiches are just a few of offerings for sale. The rolls are the best I have tried in Ottawa - always fresh - and they use unsalted butter in their sandwiches. The taste is undeniably European and they're delicious and affordable. Only open weekdays for the workweek crowd.

I was at my brother-in-law's house for some barbecue hamburgers and he brought out some ketchup and this amazing mustard. It was in a huge, ceramic jar and had a French-sounding name. The mustard was hot, tangy and grainy. I loved it and asked my BIL where he got it. He couldn't really remember, but said it was a deli downtown. So, since then, I have been scouting out delis in the city looking for this mustard. I found German Town and gave it a try. It is a small place - only the one meat (salami, peperoni sticks) and cheese counter and one small shelf of continental condiments. But, the aroma in the air was staggering. Seems they make a lot of sandwiches in there to go or for eating in at their small lunch counter. The prices are rock bottom - a ham on a bun for $1.69??? A slice of cheesecake for $2?? What I really loved was the place was decorated with decorative plates and big painted German beer steins. And, they were all for sale! If you are downtown at Bank and Slater, you have to try this place. The money you save on the food you can spend on a stein - and how cool is that?!
