Adams Street Grocery & Deli (UpTown)

The shrimp po'boy was delicious. The bread was perfect, and the fried shrimp had a light and crisp coating. The sandwich was stuffed full and the lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise a welcome addition.

The only downside (not really) was the shrimp wouldn't stay in the sandwich. It turned into finger food to eat with the sandwich. I think I appreciated the shrimp all the more for it.

Had my first po' boy here on a recommendation from a friend and it was fantastic! Took a few minutes to get the shrimp po' boy, but it was delicious. They also have a good selection of seltzer!

Adams is one of those jewel hole-in-the-wall spots that needs to stay hidden from tourist.

The food via the deli is nothing short of exceptional. The po-boys, chicken sandwich, and crawfish pies are all those after-work and weekend delights.

The staff in the deli, though very busy, are engaging and attentive.

I do recommend Adams and will return, as frequented.

A no frills neighborhood store for the essentials. Great food at a damned good price. Dong Phuong french bread and brioche buns! Lately my go to has been the grilled chicken cordon bleu on brioche, but all their sandwiches are great. Don't forget to tip the cooks! They're working hard back there.

Always a great roast beef po-boy ! And all of the employees are nice . Love this place

Loved the po boys. Worth the trip to this out of the way location.

Great Po'Boys at a great price, the bread was so tender and toasty and they don't skimp on the shrimp ! The service was also so friendly and easygoing, and the food came out quick ! :) 10/10 will be back.

I tried this place based on recommendations from friends. Good deli.. They have the good bread! Too many place in New Orleans serve po-boys on rubbery bread. This place has real French Bread! All I got this time was a hot sausage po-boy, but I will be back to try some of the others.

Great poboys at great prices and a good selection of snacks and drinks. The staff are all super curteous and friendly and they give the place such a good vibe! If ypu swing by definitely try out there hot roast beef po boy fully dressed, best covenience store po boy youll find in the city!

Great poboys. Nice selection of small non-perishable grocery staples (+ ooey gooey bars). Friendly, organized, and efficient during king cake season. We love adam’s steeet grocery

This is my favorite lunch spot in all of New Orleans
In Los Angeles , delis are places to get cheap greasy burgers. I didn't expect much beyond that here. I ordered a chicken sandwich and expected a cheap boring thing. Instead, it was delicious. It didn't just taste like a heart attack , it had actual flavor.
The poboys are great as well, I personally like a dressed fried shrimp with extra mayo and onions.
GO HERE! It is worth all types of detours.

This unassuming gem on the corner of Adams and Plum is New Orleans soul at its core definition.

From the locals gathered outside, to the workers with impeccable customer service this place is it, full stop.

It’s the type of corner grocery store that becomes part of your weekly routine… it’s untarnished by the onslaught and obligations of tourism that often plague small business’ here in this city.

Locals know why it’s much loved. The prices and the quality of their food (best bang for your poboy buck), along with their customer service make this place a New Orleans institution.

I had the immense fortune to live down the street from this place for about 4 months. amazing prices, amazing people, amazing sandwiches. best shrimp poboy in my mind. i moved there an unhealthy 108lbs, left 145. that should be enough to tell you how much i dug this place. miss it eternally.

The shrimp po boy is delicious; however be careful because a full po boy is a lot to put down, I’d recommend sticking to the 1/2 or the bun. Regardless it’ll be overflowing with perfectly cooked and seasoned shrimp. Classic New Orleans food.

Over the years I have been enjoying the poorboys at Adam Street . Their French bread is always fresh with the perfect balance of cruncy crust without being all air. I normally get hot roast beef dressed or turkey..but, today I was in the mood for tuna fish salad and it was the best tuna salad I gave ever had.Even better than my homemade! Well done ,you nade my day!

oh man oh man. not only are these my favorite shrimp poboys, they’re also the cheapest. $5 for a half size which will most DEFINITELY fill you up. So much shrimp mmmmm

The ham and cheddar Poboy is fantastic. Fish too. Roast beef, no.

Awesome Roast Beef on bahn mi. Best roast beef poor boy around.

Food is always made hot and fresh to order. Never ever seems to fall short of my expectation. Fried chicken BLT on french and Hawaiian bun is a must try.
