After an office move, I asked a coworker where should I go for lunch. He knows that I am an excellent home cook and also that I, as a resident of the Beltline is used to pretty good food. He suggested Keith's, and I have to agree.
I haven't tried much on the menu, because their signature sandwiches are both far too good to stray from. The Keith's and Keithtalian sandwiches are both made from italian sausage, the second being the spicy variety - and I would recommend either to anyone. Don't forget to have a pickle or two. These are homemade pickles, crisp & full of bite!
Although Keith's is a few extra blocks from my work, and perhaps the walk both ways takes 20 minutes out of my lunch hour, it is worth it for this inexpensive joint. I'll be back again & again. This place is so good, I'm sure I'll even go for the walk during the winter just to have one of these sandwiches. -

good independent sandwich shop!
this cozy little sandwich shop is a refreshing change from the typical shops in the calgary dining scene which have not uniqueness or history. I think keith's has been in operation for about 40 years (?) and you can find 3 or 4 generations of the family working at any given time! The sandwiches are good, but simple - in fact, you can make the same sandwich at home using stuff bought from the grocery store. still, it's a nice place to grab lunch. -

I made a point to stop at Keith's because of the reviews I read on Yelp. Sadly, my experience wasn't as great as the other reviewers. Three people in front of me ordered the famous Keith Special, which turns out to be a pork sausage with BBQ sauce if I remember correctly. I'm not a huge fan of pork sausage, so I ordered the Turkey Sandwich. The sandwich came with cheese, lettuce, mayo and mustard, with an option to substitute the mustard with cranberry sauce. It was Keith's 40th anniversary, so sandwiches were $1 off and came with a bag of chips.
I'll give the sandwich points for the bread being super fresh and soft, but otherwise it fell flat. There was about 2 thin slices of deli turkey, a couple shreds of iceberg lettuce and bland cheese. Thank goodness for the bread or I would have been starving after. It's nice that a small mom and pop place can stick around for so long, especially in Calgary, but I think this is my first and only visit to Keith's. -

Great sandwiches for a small price.
They make their own sausages every Monday and their buns are delivered fresh every morning by a local bakery. The sandwiches seem like they aren't much at first glance, a small (6") bun, lettuce, mustard, mayo, cheese and deli meat, warmed up and melty. BUT, you can get a large version of every sandwich that gives you double the meat OR you can "Keith-ify" your sandwich by adding a sausage to it. The turkey sandwich comes with cranberry sauce. Yum!
This is one of my favorite places to go on a Saturday for a quick, easy lunch. -

I've eaten here several times in the last few months. Every time is always as good as before :) Friendly people, and AMAZING food.

There are local spots that just scream Calgary and Keith's is among the loudest. To be straight up, I haven't tried 90% of their menu. This isn't because I've only been there a couple of times. In fact, I've been there over 100 times. My issue is that the second I tried the Keitalian I didn't want to try anything else. If their other sandwiches are even half as good, then one day I may have to expand my taste. My only warning to new patrons would be they only accept cash.

Hidden inside the Chinook Plaza (I believe it is called) directly across from Chinook Center, this small deli delights with their sandwiches and hand-made sausages. I tried the Rachel (ham, sauerkraut and cheese), and it is a melty delight: add in a special sausage on the side and you are going to be quite full from your lunch. Two minor quibbles: minus half a point for only accepting cash, and another half for the use of the mysterious powers of the microwave, and you have an overall solid deli that is a Calgary institution - or at least should be!

Keith's Deli has been in Calgary for decades and it still serves delicious sandwiches and sausages for a good price. At lunch expect a short wait in line before getting your fill. The hours seem a little random to me and I have on a few occasions been disappointed to find them closed at odd times of the day. Try the special.
