Beloved Dearborn Deli Closes After Nearly 50 Years

DEARBORN, MI — A popular Dearborn deli that was a staple for nearby Ford workers closed down after nearly 50 years, according to a Facebook post.

Noah's Deli, located on Michigan Avenue near Ford's World Headquarters, permanently closed its doors Friday, according to the social media post.

The small deli was best known for their long list of speciality sandwiches, especially the hot corned beef and pastrami. The deli was also known for their hearty daily soups, chili and other menu items, including breakfast.

"After working for 37 years and owning Noah’s for 13 and a half, Mom decided it is time to retire and move on to the next adventure," according to the post.

The post didn't specifically say why the deli closed, but noted the business hasn't been the same since the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Thank You to the few employees that stuck around all these years. Mom needed a village and you were there. And for that we appreciate everything. Restaurant work is NOT easy. It takes commitment, Thick skin and a really good sense of humor," the post read.

The small deli was founded in 1977, and has been owned by Teresa Bolan for nearly the past 14 years, according to its website.
