I've wanted to check this place out for a while, but its location on the busy 287 has always made it simply a drive-by spot. I happened to get a gig close by and the team took us here for lunch and my life has been changed! We pulled into the large parking lot and immediately smelled the fresh baked bread aroma as we walked through the front door. The counter is filled with menu options, and honestly, very overwhelming with how many options they had. I moved to the back of the line of my group so I could study everything. They were very quick with the line and very friendly, even as the door kept opening and the line grew even longer. I ordered "This Is It" with turkey, roast beef, cheddar, cucumbers, sprouts, tomatoes and I subbed in grilled onions for the raw offered. I also opted for a side of their sweet potato fries at the recommendation of a coworker. After a few minutes wait, the groups food came out and I was shocked and how excellent EVERYTHING looked. I took one bite of my sweet potato fries and already liked the place. Biting into the pillowy soft bread generously filled with all of the meats and veggies made me love this place. One of the top sandwiches I've had in Fort Collins, for sure. I demolished the dish and left uncomfortably full, but knowing that I'd be back repeatedly, and soon. read more

Deli-Works - Turkey Blitz with provolone & homemade chips - Delis Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

Deli-Works is a great, family-run restaurant with tasty sandwiches served on homemade bread, delicious soups, and just the best homemade cakes. But if that's not enough, go for these homemade potato chips! Who knew a chip could actually still taste like a potato?? And don't just take our word for it...the kids at the next table were gobbling them up, too. read more

Deli-Works - Housemade potato chips ... sooo good. - Delis Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

As I was standing at the register ready to order, the cashier and the cook were loudly fighting and not only was it unprofessional, but very awkward as I was waiting to place my order. The sandwich was gross and honestly the staff left a bad taste in my mouth with how they were acting in front of customers. Would not recommend, especially for how out-of-the-way it is to get to. read more

Found this place by accident, but it is truly a fabulous place in a sea of mediocrity. The day we were here, there was live music with the guy playing the guitar. That was awesome, the selection and options of food are amazing. The owners are super friendly definitely one of my top spots. read more

Delicious food made by caring cooks/workers! Feels like an incredible homecooked meal made by your mother/grandmother. Fresh baked cakes too! read more

worst service of all time. called in an order. they said it'd be ready in 10 minutes. i get there after 10 minutes and paid. people came after me ordered in line, got their food and ate it before i ever received my food. waited over 40 minutes for two sandwiches. avoid this place at all costs read more

I've been a patron of Deli-Works for decades and they have some of the best quality sandwiches around. They have a great selection of meats, cheeses and breads and terrific service! read more

Yum! Just ate a scrumptious Turkey Bash sandwich while waiting for my car to be serviced nearby. Lucky to have found this place! They had gluten free bread (that held together and tasted good) and the staff were considerate about my food allergies. Nice to have fast casual food that's locally owned and woman owned. read more

Best everything! Soups, breads and desserts all homemade. Awesome service and the music on Fridays is always wonderful! A must to just come and have a good time! read more

I will start of by saying this place was very understaffed and I tried to keep that in mind. However, there were multiple issues related to this experience unrelated to lack of staff. Hygiene practices for food prep were seriously lacking. The person preparing the food was not wearing gloves, did not have her hair up, frequently touched her hair, touched multiple surfaces, all of this without washing her hands. The cashier frequently touched money and people's credit cards and then handled food. Again, I did not observe her wash her hands during the 20 minutes we waited. The potato salad appeared to be several days old. The soup, though advertises as homemade daily, came out of a fridge and had to be reheated. read more

I'm not usually the person to take the time to leave a review but I felt this place definitely deserved one. The food was absolutely delicious, the sandwich was super fresh and the fries were perfect. I also got the cake, it was one of the best slices I've had in Fort Collins, you could tell it was homemade. The customer service was great, very friendly, food came out fast. I don't understand how this place could receive a one star from anyone, the only ones I saw were saying it was dirty and unhygienic. I saw nothing unhygienic going on and they were all cleaning pretty meticulously. Just don't go into a sandwich shop expecting marble floors and chandeliers and you'll be just fine. You should most definitely check it out any chance you get. read more

Deli Works was sooooo good. It's a very family friendly restaurant and the service was great! The food is filling, tasty, and a good price. read more

Great food, the live band was phenomenal and the entire staff was super friendly! I'd highly recommend the carrot cake as well.

Not a good place. Really poor customer service. The restaurant inside and all of the dining room is so dirty. Food was honestly just gross.

Food is to die for. Best ranch dressing I've ever had. Soups are great. Sandwiches are great. Desserts are great. Everything tastes like "home made". The staff is friendly and attentive. My new home away from home for lunch. read more

Wow! Great sandwich and great staff. The food was super good, I had the "special of the day" which was the "Ham it Up". Really tasty. Staff came and checked on us and we had a nice conversation about how the deli was started. Definitely recommend to anyone who wants a good sandwich from a down to earth deli. read more

Family owned! Awesome customer service. Food tasted great, fresh bread every day! Cute little area to sit where artists can post their art.

Yum! The building could use some updates, but don't let that stop you. This place is a hidden gem! Come here when you need a soul-warming sandwich made by Mom. I had the veggie deluxe on a homemade onion roll. SO GOOD. Bread was perfect. They also had a variety of sandwich options and homemade breads, cakes, cookies, etc. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed! read more

Deli-Works - a sandwich in a basket - Delis Near Me - Fort Collins, Colorado

I have been eating here for over 20 years and still love it! The owners recognize us when we come in and know our favorites, even if it has been a while since we have been in. Great locally owned and family run restaurant. Everything is good but we love the Turkey blitz with cheese and the vicious delicious. Homemade chips are the best but their French fries are good too. read more

Just ate a sandwich there today; first time. The sandwich comprised of a freshly baked deli roll, good quality meat and other ingredients. Most impressed. Only wished there would have been more meat evenly distributed. Will return and recommended for lunch. read more

Great food, friendly service, at reasonable prices! I ordered a chicken fajita sandwich which exceeded all expectations! I had well seasoned, tender chicken and loads of guacamole! They were also kind enough to think of my dog, and brought out a bowl of water for her. I highly recommend this place! read more

My favorite sandwich shop in Fort Collins! The "Sooner" is AMAZING! The best crispy fries as well. The absolute best service of any business...period! Family owned and when you stop in they will visit and converse with you...you don't feel like a customer, you feel appreciated for your business. When my son comes home from college, he eats there almost daily. If I ask my other boys what we should do for lunch, they say "Deli-Works"! An absolute MUST for sandwiches. read more

The BF has been talking about this place for months and I finally got a chance to try today. Everything he said was true! Homemade breads, awesome sammies; I definitely was impressed. We shared the Veggie Deluxe and the Black Bean Burger. They were both fantastic. We'll be back for sure. Give this little place a try! You won't be disappointed! read more

Family owned business limited hrs but the food is all homemade I like the Brit's burg and beef stroganoff soup. But many great items to choose from a true mom and pop place read more

Best sandwich place I've ever been to. Discovered it when I worked 30 seconds away, and now I am at least 30 minutes away and can't stop coming back. My go-to is a turkey bash + grilled onions with a side of their spicy homemade chips. Friendly staff, homey small business feel, and everything that I've tried has been top tier!! read more

So I'm writing this because of how amazing the staff and family at deli-works treats their customers. I have a client that lives with my family who ordered food while at work and discovered she had lost her mo em when the order got there. The wonderful sisters that own deli -works still let her have her food and said she could pay it later. Today she ordered food again and told me about the previous delivery. When I called in her order I told them she had an outstanding balance and they were very courteous and help me settle up the bill. When her food got to the house Britt was super friendly with my 5 year old nonstop talking machine. Thank you lady's for your patience and understanding for the ones I care for. read more

I'm looking forward to writing an update next time I visit. This first time was an interesting experience. A family owned establishment the Deli-Works is antiquated and in dire need of a remodel to open it up and make room for ordering, etc. I could understand if there was some particular motif or theme but even the layout of the interior walls are required to be navigated around. I felt like I was in a military chow line and still trying to figure out where I should order. The owner-looking person (perhaps manager) asked if the young boy looking down behind the counter was going to acknowledge me and take my order. The food is good but not overwhelmingly so for a place that claims their sandwich are the "best in the world" (it's on their signage). Burgers, Philly Cheese Steak, Fish sandwiches, the have a variety. The special of the day was Italian beef and though better than most, especially the meat - I was expecting more. The 4" bun (for $9 w/ large drink) carried with it loaded shredded beef but they wrap it in tin foil and the bread gets soggy very quick. Juicy shredded beef is good but not at the expense of picking up a sloppy bun. The potato salad was nothing special and rather bland. It tasted close to an egg salad to me. read more

I always seemed to have ignored this place when I drove on 287. Recently though I was hungry and in need of some sustenance. low and behold I came across Deli-Works. They got a real cute little dining room and a nice variety of items on their menu. I ordered a gyro and it was most yummy indeed. Everyone that worked there seemed nice too. Definitely a lunch place... they close in late afternoon so best plan to go there before afternoon sets in. I don't like that road(Deli-Works does not own the road) to get to the restaurant. It is very bumpy so best go slow so you don't tear your car asunder... their parking lot though is just fine. It is nice and smooth for you to park your car. read more

Great local spot with fresh ingredients and friendly staff ,had the this is it and it was very good also tried the roast beef cold and it was excellent, priced fairly and not to crowded,very comfortable for lunch. the bread is amazing. read more

When I lived on the Southside of Fort Collins, I loved visiting this place. The food and staff service are amazing! The only thing that keeps me from giving this 5 stars is that there are not dinner hours and that the interior decor is a little dated. Now I live across town I am not lucky enough to have the privledge to eat their sandwiches on a regular basis. read more

Simply one of the best restaurants in Ft. Collins! I come every time I'm back in town. Locally owned and operated, everything is made fresh! The bread is fantastic and you must get some cake. read more

I used to love Deli Works. My dad had a business across 287 and we'd go there for lunch frequently during the summer. As a teenager, I would order lunch in for the guys and it was always good. I don't know what's happened in the past couple years, but the sandwiches have gotten sloppy, the portions are tiny, and the staff is actually rude. Maybe they need a break or something, but when I call to order food, just barking out "Hold Please" and putting the phone down is NOT appropriate for a restaurant. "Thank you for calling Deli Works, can you please hold a moment?". Last time I was in, the fries were soggy and my sandwich (the Sooner with grilled onions) had literally 1/2 piece of turkey and a tiny bit of ham. Maybe 1/2 piece of bacon shared between the two halves. It was embarrassing! The rolls are still good, but that's not enough to make up for the lack of actual sandwich filling. They did an ok job updating the dining room from the old orange color scheme, but man, they just need to work on their quality and customer service. I called in just now to ask what kind of soup they have (snowy weather, I want baked potato soup from DW!) and got the "hold please" and then sat there for 3 minutes before hanging up. I'll be ordering from Taste of Philly or Spooners now. read more

This is the best lunch place I've found. Sandwiches are amazing, soup is to die for and they are super fast! Customer service is amazing. This place has it all! read more

The food is delicious and the staff is super friendly. My favorite sandwich is the Turkey Bash. Love their spicy fries & they have awesome desserts. We have been eating there for many years & are happy to support a local family business. read more

Great place for an amazing, quite filling sandwich. Many of the menu items have lesser-used but known toppings (like sprouts), and I've never been anything but thrilled with my order. PS - the fries are a HEAP of order. All but the heartiest eaters will be happy splitting an order. My only wish is that they add real iced tea dispenser instead of the crap that comes out of the pop machine or Arizona sugar water in a can. read more
