Everything was great here!! This was our first time and we both loved it. Food was delicious, prices are very reasonable, and the service is nice and fairly quick.

Sandwich and cookie were basically inedible. Bread was soggy… a toasted sandwich means you put the bread and cheese in the oven to melt it, not just toast the bread and throw all the cold ingredients on. Payed for bottle of water that I didn’t get. The people behind the counter were nice.

Fast, friendly and delicious. What’s not to like ?!? Hornets Nest is a gem of a spot for breakfast and lunch. My go to is the Coach and add bacon. It’s amazing ! Go there, you won’t be disappointed.

This place is amazing! Even though it was very busy when we went, the service was quick and everyone was very helpful. Our sandwiches had fresh ingredients and our fried sides (fries for me and onion rings for my wife) we’re cooked to perfection. One of the best places in town for breakfast or lunch.

Delicious food, fast service and friendly staff. Number 11 on rye did the trick and was very filling. Loved the crunchy sweet potato fries too.

Very nice spot and convenient location. We got the Lumber Jack and Dr. Feel Good sandwiches with fries both very good. Would recommend.

This place has the deli experience down pat. After an area sandwich shop closed nearby, I needed to find another nearby and this more than fit the bill. A giant easy to read menu with many options and simplified pricing for the sandwich sizes. Plenty of clean space to sit and eat, and they have breakfast in the morning as well. Parking can get a little tight, but the lot next door can handle overflow as well. You can also order online in advance and arrange pickup. And of course, all this is meaningless if the food is subpar, but this deli excels. I was in and out in no more than 7 minutes at a peak time. Definitely on my list to return.

Now I understand why this place is always busy! Very friendly atmosphere, the staff was superb. The food didn’t take long at all and it was delicious. Ordered the buffalo chicken in a wrap with onion rings. Will definitely come back!
