Surprisingly good. I hadn't been here since they added grill foods to their menu, 20+ years ago. Back then, I wasn't impressed, but I also wasn't writing. Great fries. Very good onion rings. Very good burgers and a, "...think this is the best Philly Cheese Steak I've had, and I've been to Moe's in Philadelphia", said another in our small group. Perhaps we will return for another try.

Great chicken enchilada soup today with chicken salad and Italian sandwiches. Nice service.

The girls behind the counter seem to hate their lives or working here. No "hellos" their faces look miserable, NO customer service at ALL! I only order a bagel and cream cheese and I sat here watch the girl put cream cheese on my bagel then walk away.. I've given this spot so many chances. The prices alone are way too high, but I was willing to keep trying it. Support our local businesses right... but the customer service is what did it in. read more

We attend events in Valley Center several times a year. This deli has really good food and convenient location.

I had a Philly cheese steak with everything on it yes it looked amazing but once eating found out it's more vegetables than anything. Felt like a vege sandwich. With a very light taste of meat. I got Cajon fries that were nice and soft but it was lacking the flavor. Also had an 8oz redbull and Gatorade for a total price of $33.63 Definitely not worth the money. That get a couple stars cause of the friendly service. read more

We went here for breakfast during the week for the first time and really liked it. There were lots of options and everything we tried was good. My daughter really liked the fresh squeezed juice! They also have Thriftys ice cream! Lots of parking! read more

Yummy sandwich! I ordered the veggie on squaw bread and it was pure perfection! Next time imalso getting root beer float but we were in a hurry today. read more

Great food Many options. Call in unless you want to wait. Burgers and fries the freshest you can find. Prices are fair. In the am they make a great coffee. read more

Way to expensive...family of 5...4 sandwiches and 5 drinks over 80 dollars. A small soda is 4 bucks. Ordered 6" but, it was the thinnest most pathetic sandwich ever. This place jacked their prices during movie and decided to continue gouging their customers. read more

A true hidden gem! My boyfriend and I stopped by to grab lunch before heading to SoCal Pigs and I am sooo glad that we did! The sandwiches are made fresh by order, great prices with good portion sizes. There is also a cute gift shop attached. Highly recommend if you are in town! read more

Accessibility: pretty accessible place! They have disabled parking, the parking lot is paved and flat ground, and all flat ground to enter the building. The door to enter is a single pull door. There is seating inside but it is all high tables (not made for wheelchairs). There are a few tables outside, under a covered patio, with moveable chairs and wheelchair accessible tables. Experience: the food here is pretty good! I really enjoy the turkey sandwich and grilled cheese sandwiches. The kids like the hot chocolate! Masks: masks are currently mandated in California, and all the employees were wearing masks, but none of the customers coming in and eating inside had masks. read more

Yummy! This is a great spot. Delicious burgers, fries, and super tasty shakes. Really nice owner and service staff. Food takes a little long to prepare, but that's just because they are short staffed due to COVID. Order at the counter and they will bring the food to you. Dog friendly outside on large patio. I'm a regular here and love it! read more

I've always liked this place. Admittedly for breakfast, coffee or the occasional pastrami sandwich. But today's visit has left me reconsidering my eatery options. The attendant behind the counter was barely interested in helping me. And when I expressed have trouble hearing him, it seemed he deliberately spoke softer. Then after I tried to sign the bill with a dead pen he spent 60 or more seconds taking it apart instead of offering me my drink so I could wait for my food. At least this elicited an apology as he realized he forgot I was standing there. This place is not managed, it's scooted along because of few other choices. That will hopefully change with all the new homes being built. Pity. read more

Ugh! Too slow. Too political! Only place in town to get lunch but not quick. Nice customer service. Very nice employees. Could have more pastries. They need to use the exhaust far more if not full time. I don't like going in because I come out smelling like grease. read more

Visiting Country Junction is like your car breaking down in some small town like Grady South Carolina and then walking into the local sandwich shop. Valley Center is about as country as you're going to get in this area and the Country Junction is one of the few places to eat outside of the Casinos. You'll figure out right away that this place is basically run by high schoolers which means you will get one of two experiences. You'll either get the energetic happy teen oozing with country hospitality, or you'll get the kid that hates their job and is daydreaming about the hundred other placed they'd rather be. We got both over two orders. Fortunately our first impression was with Ashley H who really did a great job making sure we were taken care of. After we finished our sandwiches we ordered a banana split. It seemed like not everyone was trained on how to ticket the order or how to make it. It was a 30 minute ordeal of them not making it, making it incorrectly, taking it to the back room for some reason, then calling us up front to pick it up.. I guess things are a little slower in the county... As for the food, nothing is gourmet here but they do an excellent job for what it is. The Italian sub was full of Mortadella, Cotto salami, Genoa salami, and Provolone cheese. A large size was enough for two people and they also included a pickle spear and a few pepperoncinis. The burger was on a toasted bun and it was also very good. Country Junction promotes itself as an "ice cream counter" but many of their thrifty ice cream gallons were empty. Even so, when we actually did get our banana split it was pretty darn good. Tips - The Spaghetti is a favorite - Be patient read more

Okay breakfast. I had to wait for coffee, all 5 of the carafes were empty and they hadn't even started brewing any fresh coffee.

Great Breakfast and Big-Time Sandwiches French Fries. Best Service. Always my first choice in Valley Center for Good Food at a Good Price. read more

I got the chicken and swiss on croissant sandwich absolutely amazing so delicious i 100000% recommend this place if your in valley center

Great food and reasonable prices. The inside is very cute! There's also a store attached that you can walk into directly from the restaurant. read more

Give this place a try. I was here on a staycation during St. Patty's day weekend and decided to venture out from the casino for a more intimate experience. I feel lucky to have been given the recommendation from a friend who is a local because this has been a beneficial and pleasant stop. The prices are affordable and they have a wide selection of options. If I were to recommend something it would have to be one of their croissants, they're buttery and have a nice, crispy crunch. Special note was their potatoes which we subbed for a meat in their breakfast burrito. The employees are friendly and they got things done quickly and efficiently considering the large party of people who had walked in before us. Parking should be ok because of the quaintness of the town. read more

Country Junction - Egg & Cheese croissant served until 1100 - Sandwiches Near Me - Valley Center, California

The County Junction is a nice and friendly deli with lots of great food, including very tasty sandwiches. The prices are great, which is a bonus, given that this is one of the few places in town where you can grab a good deli sandwich. I dined at the Country Junction last Friday, and ordered one of my favorites - the CJ Special. This yummy sub comes with slliced turkey, swiss cheese, tomato, lettuce, mayo, mustard and (of course) lots of fresh mashed avocado. Very flavorful. A crisp dill pickle spear and a couple of yellow peppers on the site makes it all come together! In addition to great sandwiches, the Country Junction has bakery treats, ice cream, and other tasty items. So next time you in Valley Center, and have a hankering for a deli sandwich, ice cream treat, or fresh bakery item, give the Country Junction a try. You won't go away disappointed. read more

Good afternoon fellow yelpers I would like to say that today is a pleasant day.......Having lunch here at the country junction. It is a local spot in our beautiful town we call Valley Center. I've lived here for 30+ years and I've been to the country junction as a young boy with my mother and now as a father/husband. I have noticed that the welcome wagon just isn't the same anymore but the foods still good. The young man on the other side of the counter today and a couple other times coming here is the reason I'm gonna have to stop coming by this beautiful gem. So today I will have my last sandwich and I will be sure to let other people who like good food without the trouble of a grumpy/uninterested young man. Good bye and have an awesome day fellow yelpers.......out read more

What a find! We ordered grilled cheese, French dip, fries and onion rings. The sandwiches were fantastic. Loved everything we ate. I also ordered a chai tea with coconut milk. Better than Starbucks! Add the personal service and attention and I will definitely come here again. The place was recommended by someone at Bates Nut Farm. A great recommendation. read more

Service is extremely slow and the kitchen is chaotic. Food is just okay, prices are steep! I would not visit again.

Great all around local eatery specializing in deli fare. I hesitate to call this a deli though as they have some great diner type items such as fried, burgers and breakfast items such as pastries. The are only open here for breakfast and lunch hours, but are well worth it. I particularly recommend the salads as the are massive as well as the fries. The chili cheese fries are hefty and a meal on their own! read more

Really good sandwiches and fries been coming here since high school so can't complain. The only little sandwich place that's convenient and consistent with the orders . The CJ fries are delicious it adds to your sandwich . Haven't tried a burger but I bet that hits too . Can't go wrong with a burger and fry read more

Great rural deli, fresh from farm produce, with nice selection of hot and cold sandwiches and breakfast. Super-friendly service. My VC fave.

The mushroom burger was so good, I didn't even think about taking a picture of it. The orange juice was the freshest drink with light pulp. I will back again. Thank you! read more

Food is fairly decent for this area. It's a cafe with burgers, sandwiches and salads. Most of their sandwiches have 80% bread to 20% meat ratio...a bit overpriced. Caution, we were the first in line and it took 47 minutes to get two sandwiches and a salad. The chicken salad came with approx 3 ounces of meat. Overall, this place is ok if you don't have a choice. read more

Country Junction - Large Berry Smoothie $5 - Sandwiches Near Me - Valley Center, California

I understand I went in at lunch time, but waiting about 50 mins for a cold chicken salad croissant and at least 3 customers that ordered after me got their food before me. I get the ones that called in their orders but ordering after me and getting It out of order not cool. Idk maybe they had to go make more store bought croissants or kill a chicken to make some more chicken salad or even got to the store buy some more lettuce and chop it up. read more

Picked up a pastrami sandwich and a Philly cheese steak. Very bland. no salt no pepper no taste and Frozen vegetables. Was looking forward to this place with all the good reviews. What a disappointment would never go back would definitely not recommend fore warned. That's just my opinion. Better off going to Subway it will taste better and be cheaper. read more
