Delicious sandwiches and dinner entrees. One of Spartanburg's hidden gems! Plus, they have really good oldies music playing in the background. read more

I looked forward to a chicken salad croissant, with cranberries pecans & goat cheese. What I got was ground chicken & mayo on a small croissant. They can do better. 2 stars because it was edible & they have really good tea but we probably won't go back. read more

Stopped for lunch with co worker working Spartanburg. Kind of shocked this place had so many good reviews bc I think it wasn't good at all. Quiche was 75% soggy crust, and side salad was a handful of greens on same plate. My coworker got that Rueben. Rye bread had no rye. He wasn't impressed at all. The side potato salad no flavor, watery, and potatoes were hard. Won't be back. read more

Converse Deli - Quiche with side salad - Delis Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

Overpriced for the meager sandwiches they serve. Left disappointed. Little value to what you pay for.

Soggy flat chicken salad sandwich on crossiant $12 and change no tomato lettuce or bacon for that price. Not a real deli. Disappointed & overcharged read more

I ordered a Reuben and a Converse Deli Chef salad. We'll start with the Reuben. Their Yelp page says they use Boar's Head meats. I have my doubts. When I took my first couple of bites of the sandwich, I thought it tasted odd. It took me a few minutes to figure out why. I could taste the bread, which was toasted/grilled perfectly. I could taste the dressing. I could taste the kraut, which was tasty. There was a total absence of corned beef flavor. Oh, they had a conservative, dense pile of what looked like corned beef. But it wasn't present in flavor. AT ALL. And the corned beef was cold, and weirdly waxy, where the rest of the sandwich was relatively hot. I have NEVER had flavorless Boar's Head meat. I've had a lot of opportunity to eat their brand, and have made my own Reubens with it (as well as delicious French dips with their Londonport roast beef). This was a completely unappetizing and extremely disappointing sandwich, especially when you consider that I paid almost $14.00 for it. It looked, and tasted, like a cheap pile of corned beef you could get at a Walmart or a similar place. And now to the chef salad. For $14.00, I got random lettuce, soggy croutons. TWO slices of tomato, three slices of cucumber, a sad pile of sprouts, some random slices of too-salty ham, and flavorless cheese (and not a ton of either). You folks can't do more than two lousy slices of tomato and three lousy slices of cucumber for what you charge? Seriously? Will I order from them again? NO. I'm not interested in paying top dollar for what's basically lousy, lazy food. read more

This is a southern deli. They have some sandwich choices and chips. It is not very crowded. Service was quick and adequate.

The best lunch I've had in YEARS! Turkey on sourdough with clam chowder LOADED with clams! Delicious!

Only complaint was they were out of chicken salad Absolutely wonderful thing and if it's nice outside you can sit out at the patio area read more

The food was fine, not remarkable. A little sticker shock at the counter. Huge up-charge for tiny sides. The space is not inviting and in need of some TLC. Carpet is icky and tables were not in great shape. Has potential with some changes. read more

Great place for tasty sandwiches in Spartanburg, SC. I got "The Cowboy": warm roast beef, cheddar, bacon, caramelized onions, horseradish mayo on toasted rye served with a pickle spear and potato chips. The service was fast and friendly, the price was right and the food was good. They were packed at lunch time, and apparently, keep a pretty full dining room during regular hours. The dining room could do with an upgrade to the chairs and the decor wasn't much to speak of, but it won't keep me from coming back to try their other delicious looking sandwiches! If you haven't already, give them a try next time you're in the area! read more

We stayed away from this place for a long time thinking that it was just sandwiches. Boy, were we wrong. We came back to find that they can make any offered sandwich or wrap into a salad. Brilliant! So now, instead of just choosing from two or three, at most, salads (the usual house, spinach or chef salad), the entire menu became our lunch options. The portions are huge and offer great value for your money. Some restaurants that make sandwiches into salads give you less food in the salad than what you get with the sandwich. Not Converse Deli. And the food was very fresh and delicious. The warm bacon vinaigrette dressing is especially good. They even have vegetarian options. Well done. They have a nice area out front to dine outdoors. Service is friendly and prompt. We are putting Converse Deli back into our restaurant rotation. read more

Great food! Wonderful friendly service! The food is freshly made to order perfection. I had the big cheese. This burger comes with Bacon, Pimento cheese, Tomalettuce, grilled onions.... yummmmmy! The portions are large, and I couldn't help but eat it all. I think I may have licked my fingers (in public) at one point. Oh, the sweet potato fries! Let me tell you. Crispy on the outside, soft in the center! They also offer honey on the side to go with. You won't be disappointed with your choice to stop and eat here. read more

While on business, we ordered takeout twice from Converse Deli (two separate occasions, months apart). I ordered a salad the first time and the War Eagle the second time. Neither blew me over, although the War Eagle was the better of the two. I definitely wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, but it did the trick. read more

I love this place for lunch! Their sandwiches and wraps are the perfect pick me up!! The service is always pleasant and the food is timely and tasty. So, why 4 stars instead of 5? I guess it is just the ambience of the place... carpet in restaurants always throw me off in the first place. I feel like I am eating at a Ryan's buffet and I can't imagine it being very sanitary or easy to clean. It is just strange to me... I usually get their wraps. Recently I got one with some kind of pineapple relish, ham, and turkey which was delicious! It was also plenty of food for lunch AND dinner while being totally affordable. The chicken salad is always fantastic and is made in a unique way that I have never seen before. The payment is up at the counter so, it is easy and you can take your time or move quickly. This place is right next to my new living situation so, I imagine I will be coming here regularly or calling in for take out! read more

I've been here before and it was very good. We sat down and ate there for a nice lunch. This time I ordered take-out and regret the decision. The food did not stand the test of the 15 minutes in styrofoam to my destination. The bread was not panini bread, but just regular white bread, toasted. It would have been fine if it was eaten right away at the restaurant but I'm sure I would not have enjoyed the white bread had I known about it. Definitely an eat in destination. read more

Go elsewhere! They can't follow the basic rules. They don't even bother to stay open during their posted hours of operation. If you want to close at 2:30 pm, then post your hours that you close at 2:30. Don't lock the door and tell me you are closed from lack of business at 2:35 when the hours say 3:00! Do what you like... I won't be back. read more

Started with a delicious baked potato soup! Creamy awesomeness. Got the Cowboy. The roast beast was tender and the horseradish sauce was great! Side of pasta salad was awesome as well. A buddy i work with recommended this spot and i will be passing on that recco read more

Food was great but pricey! $30+ for lunch (sandwich and chips) for my son and myself is a bit high.

I expected them to have a lot more options than they actually had and none of the options were really ones I could see myself eating. I got a side salad and it was fine but really bland. I had high hopes but ultimately was disappointed. read more

This is a popular sandwich shop across from Converse College. Everytime I go there for lunch (over many years), I get a seat but there are very few seats available coming to lunchtime. By noon, I think you would have to wait. Despite all the 5-star reviews, I find the food to be average. Good quality ingredients and moderately tasty, but nothing extraordinary. The service was fine and meals came out fairly quickly for lunch. The price seems somewhat high just for sandwiches. read more

Soooooooo good! Can't say enough! All of the salads are BIG enough to fill you up! All sandwiches can be deconstructed into a salad. My favorite is the spicy turkey. This too, can be deconstructed. It's a spinach wrap with salsito turkey, avocado, jalapeño pimento cheese and broccoli slaw. Such a great combo. This wrap can also be made into a sandwich. Here's the catch, it's a "special" but they'll make it anytime. I love this place! Go if you're in the area. Only open for lunch! read more

Wonderful food with healthy vegetarian options included. The sweet spot offers hometown local Southern choices as well as soup for both lunch and dinner. The staff is friendly and proficient and serving your meals quickly. read more

I went for lunch and had an awesome avocado tuna melt. And try out their strawberry iced tea! My only complaint was the service was a little shotty but it may have been due to how busy they were considering it was a packed house, rather than a true lack of performance by their wait staff. I'll be going back regularly! read more

I know this place is a staple here in Spartanburg. The food is really good. I think it's locally sourced from Farmers nearby. But the atmosphere seems more like a college crowd type atmosphere. It definitely seems like a deli. read more

I've eaten here before and the food isn't bad. however, the last time i tried to make a order for pickup, i sat on hold for thirty minutes and any time i tried to call again, i was sent directly to hold as soon as the phone was picked up. very frustrating. read more

An excellent local sandwich shop. They make a variety of signature sandwiches and homemade soups. They also offer daily specials, as well. While they're primarily a lunch spot, they do intend to open for dinner service in 2018. One of the best lunch spots in Spartanburg. read more

Food was good but lord have mercy the tall skinny blond that worked there stood by our table and talked to her friend at the next table over, the entire time! LOUDLY! Would've been a nice lunch but she ruined it . Felt like I was eating in a high school cafeteria read more

My favorite is the Chicken Marsala. Excellent dish that they severe up. Kind of expensive though. read more

We were driving from charlotte to lake Hartwell and found this place for lunch. Sat outside and had a great meal. Would definitely recommend for lunch! read more

Let me begin with saying that my husband and I were frequent customers when we first moved to Spartanburg. Everyone raves about this place, but for a reason. I was a huge fan of their food and customer service. I recently went for lunch. I was as the end of my meal when I spotted a hair in my sandwich. I FREAKED OUT. At first, second guessed it thinking is it mine? But my hair isn't a brown/reddish color--so wasn't mine. When I told the waitress, she wasn't too pleased when I reported my findings. I was told they'll ask the kitchen and see what they want to do about it. So when I went to pay, I received a complimentary drink but I paid for my sandwich. Yes, you read that right. I paid for my sandwich but I wasn't charged for my drink. Needless to say I was upset about this experience. But they have lost not one but two loyal customers. I was disappointed in the way it was handled considering they've been given our business quit frequently. So I shall not return. read more

Always so good when I go. The smokey mountain is to die for! Service is always amazing and everyone is friendly. Definitely a place you will visit over & over. read more

Converse Deli - Great lunch spot ! Ordered the smokey mountain .. So good ! - Delis Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

I eat here once a week for lunch. Having eaten about every sandwich on the menu, I am qualified to say it is all very, very good. The Reuben, the Pilgrim and the Roll Tide Sliders are my go to choices. The coffee is from Little River Roasting, so you know you're getting the good stuff. Can't recommend them highly enough. read more

Great lunch, delicious coffee! Love the staff - all so friendly and attentive! I had the Grown Up Grilled Cheese with a cup of Tomato Basil soup - the soup was a little sweet for my taste, but I get it if they added sugar to cut the acidity, it was really smooth and fresh. Did I mention the awesome coffee?? Had three cups + one to go. Yum! My mom is the pickiest eater/worst customer EVER, and she didn't have a single complaint! This place isn't much to look at, but it is a great spot for a quick lunch! read more

The best place in Spartanburg for a quick and health lunch made from local ingredients. If you are looking for some of the best local sandwiches, then you have come to the right place. Everything here is made fresh from ingredients grown locally and there is a ton of different options to choose from. Service can be a bit slow during the lunch rush, but the wait is well worth it. Portion sizes are large enough to satisfy and the prices are fair. My favorites are the Pilgram and the War Eagle. The dinner menu is pretty good as well, but a bit on the pricey side for my taste. read more

Delicious sandwiches and wraps. A veggie favorite is the hippie. Not a bad sandwich or wrap in the whole place. Friendly staff,good food and good times. read more

Grabbed an order for take-out. The restaurant is very clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. I had a bacon lettuce tomato and egg sandwich that was out of this world. And as far as the coffee goes, it's by far the best I've had without going to a specialty coffee shop. Give this place a try! read more

Portions are a bit small, but the food is phenomenal. Bring a jacket!

Small, cozy, busy and worth the wait. We got there about 1230p. Bad idea. Wait until 1 or so. You will have a few tables to sit at. Many customers seemed to know each other......very well. We were new so it took a few minutes for us to order. Crowded atmosphere made me feel like I had to hurry, not sure why. I had the Hawaiian and my wife had the Club. Very ample portions. Tea was great. Service was very fast considering the standing room only crowd. This is our go to deli from now on. To me it's one of those hidden gems you might see on the Food Network. We just have to figure out the premium time for us to go without having to wait. If you are near this part of town, stop in for a sandwich, you will not be disappointed. Thanks fellow Yelp reviewers, you all led us here. Thanks CD owners/staff for making our visit live up to your reviews!!!!! read more

Our hiking group of 14 ladies from Columbia descended upon the Deli today after our hike of the Cottonwood Trail. We had called a day ahead to request seating to accommodate our large group. The manager was friendly and assured us they could handle our group. When we showed up they were prepared and welcoming despite it being right in the middle of their busiest lunch window. Our waitress was super efficient and friendly. The deli has a flexible menu. For instance any sandwich can be turned into a salad. The special soups of the day and quiche got thumbs up reviews. Everything was delicious! The staff is outstanding. See for yourself if you are looking for a great deli in Spartanburg. read more
