My review on TripAdvisor:
New York City is loaded with bodegas and delis sometimes a couple on each block. Brooklyn has many of them and when I walk through neighborhoods here, I try to eat locally and support small businesses. I came across 840 United Deli when I was visiting the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and wanted a sandwich instead of pizza.
The menu at 840 United Deli
The place was busy in the late morning with people ordering breakfast sandwiches. The guy next to me was raving about a Bacon, Egg and Cheese hero that the breakfast cook made for him.
The ingredients to make those great sandwiches and wraps
The selection of sodas and snacks
I wanted lunch and was in the mood for something that would get me through the afternoon and I went for a Cheeseburger Deluxe. Great Choice!
The Cheeseburger Deluxe
The cheeseburger was perfectly cooked and caramelized. The burger was oversized and was more than enough for lunch.

The French Fries
They gave me more than French Fries on the side. This could have fed two people comfortably.
What a great dinner before the show
On another trip to Brooklyn for an exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum, I stopped in for a sandwich and ate on the steps of the Brooklyn Museum again. It is the perfect place to people watch. This time I ordered a Cheesesteak. You have to be pretty clear with these guys on ordering a Philly Cheesesteak. While it is delicious, the guy asked me if I wanted lettuce and tomato on it with mayo. That would make anyone from Philly either pissed or cry.

I felt like I was back in Philly
When I was visiting the Brooklyn Botanic Garden for “Members Movie Night”, I stopped in for another hero sandwich. I ordered the “All American Hero” with Hot Pastrami, Turkey and Swiss Cheese heated on the grill and then tucked into a chewy bun. It was really good on a cool night.
This made the perfect dinner on the cool evening in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden

Yum!
Don’t miss the friendly bodega cat as he travels around the store keeping watch
You know the food will be safe
480 United Deli is one of those bodega/deli’s that every neighborhood should have on its block.
