Noah’s Deli in Dearborn closes its doors after nearly 50 years in business

A beloved Dearborn deli that was a hotspot for nearby Ford workers and the surrounding neighborhood has permanently closed.

Last Friday, according to a Facebook post, was the final day of Noah’s Deli serving its variety of sandwiches, hearty daily soups, chili and other menu items.

Noah’s Deli was well-known for its lineup of sandwiches, including its hot corned beef and pastrami along with a list of specialty sandwiches. They also served breakfast daily.

According to a Facebook post by the owner Teresa Bolan’s daughter, the decision to close was bittersweet and Bolan is retiring and moving on to a new venture.

“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,” the post read.

The post noted that business hasn’t been the same for the small deli on Michigan Avenue, minutes east of Ford’s World Headquarters, since COVID-19.

“Thank You (sic) 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.”
