Greenleaf Restaurant And Deli Is My Choice !

Having lived in Ashland for over 29 years, Greenleaf Restaurant and Deli has been my choice for a meal out.

Daniel Greenblatt, the Owner, caters not only to the tourists, but he is especially sensitive to local customers and their tastes. His choice of staff is exceptional. The wait people are always courteous, efficient, unobtrusive and helpful.

The menu is varied for all tastes, mine being natural, organic foods. I especially like the fact that the water is filtered by Multi-Pure. My favorite time of day is late morning, time for a refreshing brunch. I always choose to be inside with a view of the creek. No matter the time of year, the creek and its environs produce a relaxing, pleasant atmosphere in which to enjoy a meal.
If you’re looking for a great breakfast, or want a box lunch for a picnic in the park, or a tasteful supper before the plays, Greenleaf is your best bet!
