A Final Message from the Marge's Deli Family ❤️🙏

Dear Marge's Deli Family and Cream Ridge Community,

As we close this chapter, we want to share one final message from our hearts.

We had always hoped to say goodbye quietly, with gratitude and warm wishes for the future. It saddens us that our final days have been overshadowed by an unexpected disagreement. We sincerely hope everyone can now move forward with understanding, respect, and peace.

Marge's Deli has been part of Cream Ridge since the 1970s. For the past 18 years, our family had the privilege of carrying that legacy forward.

Through the challenges of the pandemic, years of road construction, and the increasing difficulties of running a small business, we tried our very best to keep the doors open. Saying goodbye was never what we wanted.

Our deepest regret is that we couldn't keep this beloved local landmark alive for the next generation. We wanted it to be there for your children, just as it had been there for you.

But what we will remember most isn't the hardship. It's the people.

The familiar faces, the conversations, the laughter, the children who grew up visiting us, and the neighbors who became lifelong friends.

To everyone who supported us, shared memories, and showed our family kindness through the years - thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.

We hope that when you remember Marge's Deli, you'll remember those moments, the friendships, and the love that made this place so special.

Thank you, Cream Ridge, for being part of the Marge's Deli story since the 1970s, and for allowing our family to care for that legacy for the past 18 years.

The doors may be closed, but the memories and love will always remain. ❤️

With love and gratitude,
The Marge's Deli Family

UPDATE (October 11, 2026): This post has been updated to reflect the new tenants' subsequent explanation and written confirmation that they will not use the Marge's Deli name. Our commitment to protecting Marge's Deli's identity and history remains unchanged.

Dear Marge's Deli Family and Cream Ridge Community,

We are sharing an important update regarding our former location at 229 Route 539, and we want to thank you for your continued support.

Although the new tenants previously agreed to remove the Marge's Deli name and branding, we subsequently received multiple official notifications from Google Business Profile Support regarding requests for ownership of our existing Marge's Deli profile.

We did not authorize or approve these ownership requests, and we declined them to protect our business identity and digital presence.

The new tenants have since explained that the requests were related to their efforts to establish a Google Business Profile for their new business. We acknowledge their explanation and their written confirmation that they will not use the Marge's Deli name.

To set the record straight:

No Business Transfer: Our family surrendered the physical building lease. We did NOT sell or transfer our business, trade name, proprietary recipes, or digital assets to the new tenants.

Separate Business Identities: Lucky 7 is an entirely independent business with no affiliation with Marge's Deli. Our family's business history and identity remain separate from the new establishment.

Marge's Deli represents decades of hard work, family dedication, and cherished memories shared with the Cream Ridge community.

Since the 1970s, Marge's Deli has been a beloved part of the Cream Ridge community. For the past 18 years, our family has had the privilege of carrying that legacy forward. Named after Marge, it became a gathering place for generations of neighbors, friends, and families.

Our only intention has been to protect that legacy and prevent confusion as a new business begins operating at our former location.

We sincerely appreciate everyone who has stood beside our family and helped preserve the history and spirit of Marge's Deli.

Thank you for your continued love, understanding, and support. ❤️

With endless love and appreciation,
The Marge's Deli Family

📢 [Official Notice & A Message of Heartfelt Gratitude]

​Dear Marge's Deli Family and Cream Ridge Community,

​We wanted to share a brief update regarding our former location at 229 Route 539.

​Following our communication with the new tenant, they have agreed to remove "Marge's Deli" from their signage and branding.

​To ensure complete clarity for everyone:
​No Business Transfer: Our family only surrendered the physical building lease. We did NOT sell or transfer our business, trade name (Marge's Deli), menu, proprietary recipes, or Google profile.

​New Independent Business: "Lucky 7" is an entirely independent shop with no affiliation with Marge's Deli.

​It breaks our hearts deeply that we could not protect and continue this beloved local landmark until the very end. Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic hit, times were incredibly tough. Despite all the hardships, our love for this shop and our community kept us going opening the doors every single morning with dedication and pride.

​We are truly overwhelmed and deeply moved by all the support, photos, and updates from our amazing neighbors over the past few days. Seeing how much you care for our family's business reminds us that Marge's Deli was never just about a sign or a building, it was built on the genuine connections, trust, and memories we shared with all of you since the 1970s.

​This deli was named after Marge, and it has always belonged to this wonderful Cream Ridge community as much as it belonged to our family. We are so deeply grateful for the love, care, and neighborly warmth you’ve shown us not just during this difficult transition, but throughout all these decades.

​Cream Ridge is truly a special place, and it has been our absolute honor to serve you and be a part of this community. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing by us and protecting our legacy!

​With endless love and appreciation,
​The Marge's Deli Family

[IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT]

A Heartfelt Note & Clarification from Marge's Deli ❤️

​Dear Friends, Neighbors, and Loyal Customers of Cream Ridge,
​First, we want to express our deepest gratitude for the 18 wonderful years you spent with our family at Marge's Deli. Serving this community, making your morning coffee, and sharing daily smiles has been the greatest joy of our lives.

​We are writing to address some recent confusion regarding our shop:
​Marge's Deli is PERMANENTLY CLOSED.

​Our family has officially stepped down, and we are NOT operating at our previous location.

​We have become aware that a new business has opened in that physical space and is currently using our business name, 'Marge's Deli,' as well as our menu without our permission or affiliation.

Please be advised that:
​The current business is completely unrelated to our family.

​We did NOT sell or transfer our business, our name, our recipes, or our goodwill.
​Any food or service currently provided at that address is NOT from Marge's Deli.

​While we do not know where our journey will lead us next, the memories and love we built with all of you remain in our hearts forever. Please remember Marge's Deli as the family business you supported for decades.

​We kindly ask you to share this message to help spread the word to our neighbors.
​Thank you for nearly two decades of incredible support and love. We miss you all dearly, and we wish you continuous health and blessings!

​With all our love,
The Marge's Deli Family
