The History

Founded by Simon and Bobbi Kohn in 1963, Kohn’s Kosher, previously known as Simon Kohn’s Kosher Deli has been in operation for over 50 years. As immigrants of post-World War II Europe, both Simon and Bobbi began making homemade Kosher delicacies. This included things like as knishes, kreplach, strudel, khishka and more. Bobbi’s flair for cooking and Simon’s knack for the kosher trade became the driving force behind their success.

In the late 1970’s their children, Rosemary and Lenny joined the business and began adding to the continued success of the deli. To date, the business continues to thrive with several long-time employees. It is also the only independent kosher butcher in the St. Louis area.

Thanks to Simon and Bobbi paving the way, their staff consists of individuals from all over the world including Mexico, Russia, China, Jamaica, Israel, and Lebanon. Despite the array of cultures, the staff members have developed a family-like bond that is apparent to anyone who walks through the door.

What We Do

Our quality products, fair pricing, and friendly service have made us the go-to source for kosher food. Within the last decade, we have become a household name, not only in the Midwest but also in cities all across the United States.

We offer a lot at Kohn’s. We have a fully Kosher grocery store, deli counter, bakery, and dining area. Our deli boasts an incredible pastrami sandwich. According to Sauce Magazine, “this is about as perfect as a sandwich can be, and a welcome reminder that the simplest things are often the most satisfying.” But if pastrami isn’t your thing, we have many other sandwiches and kosher options to fit your taste.

Customers frequent our restaurant for lunch due to our to-go options, affordable deli-style sandwiches, and friendly atmosphere. Our food can also be delivered to you via any delivery app. Door Dash, Grub Hub, Uber Eats, and Postmates all currently work with us. Therefore, you can avoid any possible line and get it brought right to your door!

We’re happy to serve the Creve Coeur area with our store and bakery. We are also proud of our online delivery. Our online store can deliver kosher meat to anywhere in the United States. Quality kosher meats have never been more accessible!
