Caplansky's Delicatessen is a delicatessen located at 356 College Street in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It originated in 2007 in a room in the Monarch Tavern on Clinton Street which Zane Caplansky rented as a venue to make and sell house-cured hand-cut smoked meat sandwiches and knishes.[1] The venture was successful and, in 2009, Caplansky opened his eponymous full service delicatessen on College Street near Kensington Market. Caplansky's opened a food truck, named "Thunderin' Thelma", in 2011, which travels to various events and locations in the city to sell food on the street.[2]

In 2013, Caplansky's launched a line of mustards in grocery stores and specialty shops across Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia.

Caplansky's received world-wide notice the next year when it sponsored the Toronto Palestine Film Festival.[3]

In August 2014, Caplansky's opened a franchise at Pearson International Airport.
