"I’ve been eating at Hot Bite Deli since they opened at 435 Hollywood Ave, Fairfield, NJ in 2024. The food is fantastic, and the service is just as good! Last week, I hosted a small luncheon and, with very little notice, we called Hot Bite—and they made it happen. Pierogi, kraut, kielbasa, and crêpes for dessert. What a great meal. Thank you to Paulina for making it happen, and to the hardworking staff as well. Ciesz się posiłkiem! Joe Korczukowski NY Fireproof Door- Reliable Lock Fairfield, NJ"

"I am kicking myself now since I would pass by this Polish deli almost everyday for a year before I would step foot inside. It’s unassuming and was truly a special experience to experience their boom boom chicken sandwich with pickles and slaw. It was really nice sized piece of chicken that screams perfection. Today, I had an opportunity to try their pastrami and the combo of the polish mustard are freaking fantastic. I’ll leave pictures so you can see how unassuming the sandwich is with the bread and look then under the hood. I washed it down with juniper and hop beverage which was absolutely delightful. You can’t find this stuff anywhere else! Certainly not my typical grocery store. Oh and yes you can buy all the condiments you might need which they are stocked floor to ceiling with pickles and mustards and slaw. It’s a wild experience. Thank you to the people that work the countless hours to feed us and their passion is omnipresent and you can taste it in every hot bite. This food makes me want to learn polish so I can express myself in their language and understand how thankful I am. For now dziękuję!!!"

"My wife and I are not from the area (the Poconos), but ended up at an event that their food truck was at. We were a vendor at the event (not food) and had a chance to try some of their food. It was excellent, and the staff was great. The event was a few months ago, but I couldn't find the menu we had with their name on it. We just found it and both my wife and myself wanted to send in this review for great food and service. Thank you!"
