This past week we ventured to Grand Junction for lunch. It came highly recommended and a sub…read moresounded great. Their menu was a bit more focused than many sub shops but I took it to mean they know each of those subs inside and out, although none were really speaking to me, until I saw The Grinder. I was instantly transported to Grand Forks and even Fargo during my college days so many years ago, and I knew I was set for lunch. The sandwich ingredients seemed odd - taco meat, ham, turkey, salami, red sauce, white sauce, lettuce, tomato, so I assumed you picked your deli meat and sauce and then they were added to the taco meat and rabbit food. When I got to the counter to order, I found out this wasn't correct, as they put EVERYTHING into this sammy. As an aside, I never did get a complete explanation of the red and white sauces but I believe they are based on sriracha and ranch, which are already sauces, so whatever... I decided I didn't want all of that so went with the turkey and taco grinder but wanted some onions added instead of the tomato, which was no problem. Let us leave this for a moment as the grinder is prepared and talk about two other "issues" that feed my two-star rating. First, my order was for the sandwich and a Coke. The counter guy asked if I wanted the combo but I declined as I don't want chips. "Oh no," he exclaimed, "we have fries AND you save 20%!" He proudly exclaimed. Just let me state for the record, if one originally does not order a combo meal and then changes their mind and does order it, they have not saved 20%. Rest assured I understood that in the moment and politely pointed that out to him. I also know it wouldn't have been a thing to mention if it weren't for this second thing - their payment process. The guy rings everything up and I inserted my card into the reader and then he spun the little tablet-screen thing around for me to complete my order. We all have been there before; kind of a busy place, wanting to eat, talking to coworker, etc. so you just hit the highlighted oblong button at the bottom of the screen. I did the same, only registering a millisecond too late that it defaulted to a 20% tip. Thing three, they don't bring food to your table AND they apologized for it taking so long, so I paid a 20% tip for counter help. Now back to my sandwich. Remember when I said I only wanted turkey and taco meat? Well, apparently that didn't equate to adding more of one (or both) to make up for the lack of ham and salami, so I paid for stuff I didn't get. AND a 20% savings on a combo meal I didn't really want AND 20% tip for counter service that they even acknowledged wasn't very good. I posted a picture of my empty sub, in case anyone is interested.

Super quaint, a staple if you are visiting. All of the food was good and I'm convinced everything on the menu is probably just as good. Being from the south, I doubted finding any proper country diners, but boy was I mistaken. Everything was warm and so comforting in the dishes we ordered. They have German food option and American food (and LOTS of good looking breakfast food). Would highly recommend.

There's just something magical about being on a road trip and eating gas station food - at least…read morethat's the case for me. It's happened time and time again - the most recent being just last month, when on the road finishing out visiting all 50 US States. ND was my 50th. Anyway, while in Bismarck, stopped off at Landers and had a great experience. It was a simple lunch - An Italian sub and a cup of soup. Tossed in chips and a salad too. Getting ahead of myself. It's in the building of a gas station. One side is the convenience store the other is Landers. Counter where your food is made to order and seating. It's not table service - walk up to the counter, order and find a seat. Your food will be brought to you. When you're done, head to register to pay the bill. It's not easy to capture how tasty my meal was with words. But as I've said a countless number of times, if our tastes align, you'll love this place. Everything from the bun, to the soup and chips. I devoured it all leaving the salad for my friend. I especially enjoyed how the sub's ingredients were evenly loaded. Had a taste of it all in every bite. Unlike other experiences where it's all lettuce or the sauce is overpowering. The chips weren't too greasy or salty and the soup was just tied everything together. Obviously I'm not a regular but I know if I lived in the area, I would be and then some. Definitely the duke. If you're in the area, it's definitely a must.

**July 2025: Thursday Afternoon Visit**…read more Look, I know a lot of people will give me a hard time for ranking gas station food five stars, but this store is well deserved. Also the hours are 10am-3pm, which are much shorter than the gas station hours (I only know because I came back the next day lol). The deli has everything made to order so it's as fresh as it gets! I ordered a half sammy and soup combo ($13.99) w/ fountain drink, as well as a salad entree because I couldn't decide what to order. They brought the food to me at the table and quickly realized that it was way too much food. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed it all. The sandwich bread had a nice chew to it and the ratio of all the ingredients were well balanced. As for the soup it was flavorful, not too salty, and just made me feel all warm inside. I really liked the micro greens in the salad as well as the slices of fresh avocado. While it's located inside a gas station, it really acts like an independent deli shop that has a good steady flow of customers. I wish we had a shop like this back home because I would definitely be a regular!

According to the restaurant, they have been open for 50 years. I googled the best lunch at in Bismarck and this restaurant topped the list. When we got there, the Line was out the door, but people were saying it's worth it. Country House deli has lots of sandwiches to choose from. We asked some people in line what their favorite sandwich was. I went with the grinder on sourdough and I was not disappointed. This sandwich was delicious the deli meats, the sauces, the bread, all super fresh . It looks like they rotate their soups and if the wild rice soup would've been available I totally would've ordered that because that is not something I can get anywhere outside of North Dakota. The staff are friendly, and the line moves pretty quick. The food comes out relatively fast. I loved my sandwich from here and I wish it was closer because I would probably get sandwiches all the time. We were the table that was cracking up in the back and stayed there until you closed. Thanks for making this a really fun memory for us.
