Randi the owner met me with a smile and welcomed me to this 30 yr old hidden gem. With a vast array of hot or cold sandwiches to choose from there is also an abundance of cheese choices from around the globe. Jars of fruit spread and sauces line the main wall. If you are looking for some lunch or a giftthis is the place to go. Oh and the sandwiches are huge and delicious.

Went here on a whim and so glad I did. One of the best Italian Cold Cut subs I’ve ever had. It was huge, well worth the price, the mix of meats, cheese, and seasoned peppers were amazing. Lots of other great sounding sandwiches as well. Will definitely be returning.

What a wonderful shop, experience and most importantly sandwiches. We swung through town on our way to NYC from DC to have a peek. Did have time to stay for lunch, we arrived in the morning but decided to grab lunch for the trip home.

Incredibly rude and condescending. The old lady who wears too much makeup is a scam artist as well. They can tell who the tourists are as well as the families of incoming plebes to USNA. She will be nice and try to convince you to “open an account” with them so that you can come in whenever for a sandwich. But as soon as you do, the service is horrible. The old lady has been incredibly rude multiple times when I have went in for a sandwich. She gave me an attitude when I told her I was paying with my account and told me to “get out” as soon as the payment was processed. I don’t know how much money is left on the account but I could care less. They can keep it. It is worth not having to deal with her nasty attitude. Don’t fall for the fake face they put on to try and gain your business. There are plenty of other really good restaurants within walking distance of the Big Cheese. Don’t waste your time dealing with them. The other reviews that are positive are from people who have only been there once, or had the pleasure of not interacting with the owners.

This place is a hit or Mis….and Today was not good. Unfriendly cashier/Owner. bread was not fresh and the worst she purposely over charged me and was rather agressive while trying to explain the charges which were not in accordance with the Menu.

Bree and Apple is the most delicious sandwich I have had. I love Granny Smith apples and with the melted cheese it is so delicious. Sammy is such a wonderful host. You can go wrong with any of the sandwiches she has her recommendations too. Ask her.

A classic deli. I love the vibe, the staff, the service, and of course the quality of the sandwiches is out of this world.

I have never been treated so rudely in a shop before. First of all nothing has a price. I think they just make things up when you check out and hope the customer doesn’t notice. An older woman with a lot of makeup was at the register. I believe that she is one of the owners. She rang up our 3 sandwiches and then added an additional $11 and $2 with no explanation. We received no receipt. She was aggressively confrontational with my midshipman niece as my niece tried to use her account that she’s had there for 4 years. The woman argued with her about her graduation year and then her name. After we paid, the woman refused to let my niece access her remaining balance on her account. The woman told her “We are done! We are even! And I don’t think I like you.!” Who says that to a customer??? We were so upset at how the woman treated us, we will never return (even though my niece still has money on her account). We left in shock after paying almost $50 for 3 sandwiches and spent the next several hours in disbelief rehashing the entire interaction. I later told my midshipman son about the story and he said he has experienced that same aggressive confrontational behavior, from the same woman, more than once. He and his friends refuse to go back. They may have good sandwiches in there, but the way she treated us as customers is absolutely inexcusable. I would stay away.
