MLK Deli

MLK Deli brings its cult-favourite New York-style sandwiches to The Rocks, serving up stacked pastrami, hearty breakfast rolls and bold deli flavours.

MLK Deli has landed in The Rocks, bringing its signature New York-inspired sandwich experience to one of Sydney’s most iconic waterfront precincts. Known for its oversized, flavour-packed creations, MLK quickly built a loyal following in Surry Hills and Kogarah — and now delivers the same energy, quality and crave-worthy menu in the heart of The Rocks.

At the centre of the menu are seriously stacked sandwiches, including the standout Rubenesque Risky Brisket, filled with tender, slow-cooked pastrami inspired by the team’s trip to New York’s legendary Katz’s Delicatessen. Expect generous portions, bold flavours and a modern take on classic deli favourites.

Alongside the hero sandwiches, the menu features saucy Afghan meatballs, grilled haloumi with marinated vegetables, and a popular smoked tofu option — offering something for every taste. Early visitors can also dive into the much-loved Ritz Roll, a brioche breakfast bun packed with MLK brisket, fried egg, melted cheese and house-made maple sauce.

Whether grabbing a quick bite while exploring, meeting friends for lunch, or fuelling up before a day by the harbour, MLK Deli delivers a delicious casual dining experience that's big on flavour and personality.
