Breakfast, Lunch & Daily Specials in Minneapolis | C Mc Gees Deli
C Mc Gees Deli has been a cornerstone of Minneapolis' culinary scene since 1987, evolving from a modest deli in the Itasca Building to a beloved neighborhood institution. Founded by Jane Oyen and Doug, our journey reflects a commitment to quality ingredients, innovative daily specials, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes every customer feel at home. Over 32 years in the Northloop/Warehouse District, we've perfected our craft through three strategic relocations, each driven by our passion for culinary excellence and community connection. Our menu showcases handcrafted breakfast items served until 10:30 AM weekdays, featuring signature dishes like the Landfill and Low Carb Plate that cater to diverse dietary preferences. From our homemade pastries to our award-winning smoothies, every offering reflects our dedication to using fresh, locally-sourced ingredients prepared with care.We take pride in being 'the best kept secret' in the Warehouse District while maintaining the personal touch that made us a neighborhood favorite. Our family-owned operation continues to thrive through generations, blending tradition with innovation in our full kitchen that produces daily specials like Ahi Tuna and Flank Steak Sandwiches. The move to 901 North Third Street marked a new chapter in our story, allowing us to expand our menu while preserving the intimate charm that defines our brand. We remain deeply grateful to our loyal customers and staff whose support has sustained us through three decades of growth and change. Looking ahead, we remain committed to delivering exceptional value through our $50 minimum delivery service and maintaining the high standards that have earned us a loyal following.
