Wow! and what portions for the price!Variety of salads. Delectable sandwiches hot and or cold selections. An eggplant parm which was beaming out of the sides of the bread!Plenty abounds so come with a large appetite! Great for the purse! A must stop for the weary road traveler on the run!!

The freshest ingredients, prepared on site with daily specials. Friendly service. No atmosphere to speak of -- just a great place for a tasty and affordable lunch.

Stopped here on way to soccer tournament. The food and service was excellent at a great price. Can't say enough about Lisa and Chris the owners/operators who knew we were in a hurry and got us all set up with breakfast food for the day. Tip get there early for the fine home-made muffins. Ate there twice on the weekend... More

I used to live in Cape May and went to the Depot Market whenever I craved a BLT. Best I've ever had away from home.

Delicious - a great place to eat if you're just dropping in for some lunch or a quick dinner and don't want to pay a fortune. Keeps me coming back.

When we were overwhelmed with guests over the weekend, we turned to the Depot, and they saved the day with wonderous salads, and mini sandwhiches, and platters galore. Not the most romantic spot for lunch, but maybe the most popular among locals too.

No iced coffee at a beach resort coffee house? You gotta be kidding? I cannot comment further because I was nonplussed by the absence of iced coffee and wandered off to quench my thirst elsewhere.
