Serendipity Gourmet Deli

Serendipity is a deli located in the heart of old downtown Cary, NC. This building has been in Cary for sevral decades. Our waitress informed us that the city has plans to dimolish their store and many others due to rennovation plans for downtown Cary.
It is sad to see the building go. I would like for the businesses to stay and have the city give some businesses funding to rennovate to keep the old world charm.

Serendipity's interior is very old and smallish. The walls are covered with old green viney wall paper. I derive that their interior is an attempt at old and stale country charm. The decor has been there since the 70's and needs an update. The kitchen is uncomforably far away from the prep area.

There are few establishments that could care less about their interior dressing and more about the food. Here, I found good food that brings me back memories of mom's croissant sandwiches, and desserts that make me forget my woes.

Please forgive me for I can not recall the names of the sandwiches.

I had Mexican Croissant sandwich. From what I can recall, it consists of sour cream, turkey, monterrey jack cheese, and lettuce.
Adym had a beef sandwich.

For dessert we both shared this warm and delicious carrot cake.
Adym watched a staff member make the icing fresh.
I have to say that this is the best carrot cake I have ever had. The raisins they added to the cake is an excellent touch.


I would come back for the super friendly service and good food. My overall rating is 3.5 out of 5.
