Mabel's Deli

This unassuming market and deli is the delight you didn't expect to find in Poncha Springs. The friendly staff, no frills, quality ingredients, and gorgeous mountain views is all you need. My buddy got the deli sandwich and I got the breakfast burrito. We were both satisfied! Great after a morning of skiing ⛷️

We popped in for a quick lunch while utilizing the supercharger next door. It’s definitely a mix between ~dive bar mom n pop gas station diner~ It feels a lil grimy, and I wouldn’t want to sit on anything cushioned. With very little effort (ie just cleaning up a bit) this could be such a cute place. There are two tables and 4 barstool spaces. If you sit at the “bar” you’re right in front of the washrooms. That being said, the food was really tasty albeit on the pricey side. We ordered a club sandwich, Reuben, and fries.

If you're anywhere near the Hwy 285/50 area (Salida/Poncha Springs), visit the Poncha Market next to the gas station, and you'll find Mabel's Deli inside. And while you're there, check out the candy and treats from Maggie's Candy Kitchen...handmade fudge, brittle, pizzelles, and mor

Packed house for a reason! The sandwiches are made fresh to order and are big portions with great topping options. You can also grab smothered tamales (try them with an egg!) or fries. The people are kind and working hard and fast to meet the demand. Don't miss out!
