Love this place, cute, quaint, quality food and an inviting atmosphere. Been here several times, most always the food hits it out of the park! Sandwiches, cold brew and the gluten/dairy free coffee cake are . The food speaks for itself, but it is the customer service and manager's way of operating that have me a customer for life. Brought a small concern to management once, Rebecca went above and beyond to graciously hear my concern and make sure it was addressed. All other experiences have been super stellar! Really happy to support this business. read more

Delicious! The bread to meat ratio is a bit much, but at least the bread is good. The Reuben is definitely a standout! Super tasty. Also the staff is really nice, and there is a nice area for outdoor seating as well. Be prepared to spend a bit of time here; the sandwiches take a little bit of time but they are worth it. read more

They may have a new owners, my last three trips within the last six months. All three sandwiches were absolutely horrible. Scuba Steve, the dry gluten-free bread fell apart, and sandwich / salmon landed in my lap Thanksgiving Turkey sandwich, was so dry, about choked to death. Last trip I tried the bbq brisket, which was nothing but a bunch of gristle with no flavor and bread as hard as a rock. When you let them know they fell short, they don't care. You could do better by paying attention to the quality of your bread/ meats and checking with your customers, or listening to them when they bring up issues. They just don't care. My new name for this place is called "ditch" as in I will ditch this place. Never again. read more

Dish Gourmet - a sandwich with a side of potato chips - Sandwiches Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

My daughter and I wandered in here after accidentally skipping lunch because we didn't realize Color Me Mine took so long. Starving and unable to make decisions, the person taking our order was quick to offer suggestions to my daughter who was no longer interested in a breakfast burrito because/ gasp- it had eggs in it. We came during rush hour so it did take a while to get the food. I ordered a gluten free sandwich (yay celiac disease) and when it came out, the bread was obviously not gf so I had to send it back. At this point hanger had kicked in and I was imagining what type of horrible review I could write here on Yelp to vindicate both my wait and what I was assuming would be a subpar sandwich. Boy was I thankful upon taking the first bite. The in house baked gluten free bread it just something all celiac cursed individuals need in their lives. I ordered the Buff, which has a spicy kick and my taste buds rejoiced in delight. My daughter ended up not eating all of the kids grilled cheese, not because it was on focaccia bread but because it had cheese on it. Kids- am I right? It looked pretty good though and if it wouldn't through my body into three days of celiac pain from the gluten I would have devoured that too. Another must try place for any gluten free peeps in the Boulder/north Denver metro area! read more

Dish Gourmet - bendy pickle - Sandwiches Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Great local spot for breakfast & lunch! I've done pick up here a few times, and always been happy with my food. They have TONS of creative sandwich options- so everyone can find something they like. My favorites have been The Canales for breakfast and the Thanksgiving for lunch. Also love that you can do add ons to make it a boxed lunch or chose a few of their unique sides. This place is operating super well given the current covid environment. You can order online and do curbside or front door pick up. The staff seem to be following excellent safety & health precautions too. My only wish is this place was open a bit more! I'm not sure if the hours are currently limited due to covid, but I have a had a few times where I consider grabbing breakfast there but can't since it's Sunday or they aren't open yet (they currently open at 10). read more

I'd actually give a 4.75 star if I could. The Gobbler sandwich and chips were so tasty. The service was nice and quick. The only negative was the pickle needed more time in the pickle jar. read more

Waited more than 45 minutes for a sandwich and staff was very rude about it. Guy behind waited almost an hour. Recommend going here if you have an afternoon to waste. Extremely unhappy customer read more

Dish always goes out of their way for any of the orders I place for work. Everyone at the office loves it and it's so delicious and there's so much variety--really unique sandwiches. read more

Delicious food. very well Thought out side dishes. Quick easy place to grab a bite and probably the best you can get around if you're in a rush. read more

Menu has its ups and downs, but the good things are very, very good. Their Italian sandwich is outstanding, like a hoagie, but a little fancier, in a way that still satisfies the way the original does at its best. The Chook sandwich was a different story, and very unsatisfying. It was slapped together sloppily, very unevenly sauced, and just a big letdown. Worth exploring more of the menu, but they need to get rid of the things that suck. read more

Dish Gourmet caters our office lunches twice a week and our breakfast! They're delicious, healthy, on time and have been great to work with. The portions are often a good size so we're not left with too many left overs (as long as tell them how many of us they are). They also accommodate so many of our food requirements which is amazing. Thanks for all the healthy, delicious food! FYI - their lasagna is great and so is their pulled pork! read more

Sandwiches were delicious, definitely a dope stop with a wide range of selection when it comes to lunch. That said, either order ahead or be prepared to wait 20+ min for a hot sandwich. Ordered: Thanksgiving Sandwich - spot on, great with ciabatta bread! BBQ Brisket - better than expected!! read more

Located east a few blocks of the Pearl Street Mall, their Rueben is FANTASTIC. And the staff is super nice. 5 Stars!

Excellent sandwiches and sides. I wish they d have more vegetarian sandwiches, but the ones they do have are delicious

Overall: great lunch spot with high quality ingredients! Food: ordered their Italian sandwich and was super impressed, Italian meats were high quality, flavorful and they had a great olive spread that added some tang. Drink case has a good assortment of izze, cream Soda, etc. Restaurant: tiny, but has a few tables inside- very quaint and feels like a mom and pop. read more

I used to really like coming to this place. Last time I came here, it took 20 minutes to make a simple sandwich. Caused me to be late for meeting, never expected it to take that long to make a sandwich when it's not busy. And was given attitude when I asked. Not to mention that it cost $15 for a small sandwich now. Sorry dish, you've lost this customer and a few others he used to come here. Go to Cured instead. Bigger, better, cheaper, nicer people. read more

This is the perfect place for lunch. My wife had the Chatham sandwich with turkey, cheese, slaw, Russian dressing on rye. I had the Caprese on ciabatta. They came with chips and semi-sour pickle. They brew their own black iced tea there with complimentary refills. read more

There are lots of other places in Boulder to get a decent sandwich, hero, sub, whatever...but if you want a damn tasty gourmet sammich, goto Dish. Yeah, I've been waiting to use "sammich" in a Yelp review, cause I understand that's what kids these days call a tasty sandwich with that extra special something, ya know, goodness, lovin', or care. I believe Dish has no equal here in Boulder in the art of stacking fine gourmet edibles between ciabatta or some other fresh delicious bread. This is tasty tasty comfort food - all the best ingredients - fine cured meats, house-roasted meats & veggies, fancy speads, made fresh to order. Amazing variety of sides for a small place like this. So I read that Dish's Chef Brian was CIA-trained (Hyde Park, NY) and originally from the east coast. Shit yeah, that's the guy whose sandwichs I wanna eat! So I'm gonna add some pics of these sammich creations soon, so you can see what you're missing. Bad news? Well, Dish has been popular for a while and is often busy; there's only seating for about 16 inside the place. And a meal will run ya $9-10, w/o a drink, at least, but portions are mostly generous. Hey, you CANNOT get a sandwich like this anywhere else (around here) - yeah, it's definitely worth it for me. I'll keep working thru their many sandwiches, and if all turns out as well as so far, I'd be looking at adding a star. read more

This place used to be consistently delicious. Fresh, healthy, and nearby for a quick lunch. These days the quality has dropped off and it is quite inconsistent. Had to call in more than once to talk about an order not being made to order. Unfortunately this go-to spot isn't my spot any longer. read more

I'm surprised there are only 8 reviews. Dish is the best sandwich in Boulder, hands down. Think it's pricey? The standard price for lunch anywhere in town seems to be around $9, unless you are still eating Happy Meals. For less than $10, you'll get the best, freshest possible ingredients; handmade to your specifications. Show up at the stroke of noon, and seating might be an issue. Wait, it's worth it. Many drive across town to eat here regularly. read more

Disappointing. My partner's "piglet" sandwich was fine, nothing special. My cuban sandwich was about half the size, on a burnt corner crust of bread with almost no meat. read more

We ordered the Thanksgiving Whole Shebang Dinner. FANTASTIC! I am looking forward to the next Thanksgiving in Boulder so we can order it again. Also ordered 2 Shamane's Bakery Pies to complete the meal. They were DELICIOUS. Thank you for making Thanksgiving easy and fabulous. read more

This is a place that I really like. They have friendly staff, delicious sandwiches and salads, and a great outdoor sitting area. read more

This place rocks. I've only had one thing off of the menu - the Cuban sandwich. But it is the best darn Cuban sandwich I've ever had so I keep ordering it over and over. My only suggestion is to also offer a larger size, so there's more deliciousness!! In addition to the tasty food, the people are always super friendly, so the Dish is always a pleasure to visit. See you soon! read more

This place is just the best. About a 30 second walk from my apartment so it's been my go-to for a lunch sandwich or quick breakfast burrito and coffee. Consistently amazing. Easy online ordering and pickup, fast, great prices, high quality ingredients, never once messed up an order. Plus a variety of great vegetarian options. read more

This little sandwich shop is in a delightful location. We were able to sit on a great outdoor patio while enjoying our sandwiches. My wife and I ordered the Mapleton and the Italian to split. The Mapleton was my favorite of the two sandwiches. A good combination of flavors. The Italian was was my wife's favorite of the two sandwiches. The bread, cheese, and olives were great on this selection. My wife also couldn't resist ordering a cookie. She ordered a snicker doodle and everyone at the table enjoyed a piece of it. Overall this sandwich shop was good but fairly pricey. I would like to come back to try other selections. read more

Yum! Yum! Yum! Not only is the food great but it makes you feel good too. That is because the food is all hand made with quality ingredients that when available are locally sourced. Those elements make your insides feel good as well as your spirit. I was able to try both soups available today as they gave me samples. Each was delish. The one I picked cost me just $4 and came with a baguette! A value in Boulder?! Yes! There are sandwiches and salads as well. All are wonderful. Seating is casual and eclectic at high top tables. You will be surrounded by local art hanging on the walls, adding to the atmosphere and local values of the business. read more

Had the Bloody Good Salad and a cup of Tomato Bisque soup. Salad was wonderful and full of fresh ingredients. Loved the dressing! Wanted to lick the cup clean after eating the soup. Wished I'd gotten the bowl instead. Service was prompt and friendly. Tables in an out so if you want to sit and relax in the shade then this is the place. Will be back! read more

Cool spot with a huge variety of breakfast and lunch items. Then bread is excellent. Sidewalk seating. No decaf coffee.

We have catered lunch from Dish Gourmet every Wednesday for the last 14 months. The food is great, different every week, and always on time. We have vegans, gluten free folks, vegetarians and meat eaters. Dish makes sure to make everyone happy!! We will continue to order from Dish every Wednesday and everyone comes to work expecting something great. Dish never lets us down !! Great people, great food, great service. There is nothing I would change. Keep up the great work !! Tom Spielberger, CFO read more

Because of your reviews and my original preview of Dish's food at a catered luncheon last year, I put it on my list of restaurants to try. So I went in today for lunch. Chef-prepared food, locally grown, mostly organic, and affordable? Yes, absolutely. What's a superlative word for "beyond excellent" that I haven't already used in my oft-repetitive reviews? Whatever that word is, it is my word for Dish. For right around $10 total you can get a gourmet sandwich, with either chips or a small salad which was actually not so small. Good spinach salad. Eclectic and original selection of artisan cheeses. Highest quality house-roasted meats. Everything so fresh, including the Ciabatta bread. Tasty salad dressings. Even the iced tea from a pitcher was unique, fresh, and potent. There is also a deli case with lots of yummy looking food in it. And remember, they do cater. With their excellent food and wide array of choices and reasonable prices, I'm sure catering would be a win/win proposition. read more

I stopped into Dish Gourmet today after a relaxing massage at Twig Salon and Spa for Hawt on Yelp week. I've passed this place several times in my Boulder jaunts and always found it appealing - very small, maybe 6 or 7 tables, but a very inviting food counter and seemingly endless sandwich selections. I especially like that all their meat comes from independent Colorado farms, so you can feel good while you're noshing. There's a little merch section too, where you can buy things like tshirts, specialty popcorn, and sauces and stuff if I remember right. I'm a sucker for Thanksgiving sandwiches - you know, turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce. This one was accompanied with a small side of gravy, chips, and a fresh, delicious pickle. I don't normally like my sandwiches in ciabatta bread, but the bread still tasted fresh even late in the day. The only thing I would have changed was the cranberry sauce - while flavorful, I like mine a bit on the sweeter side so you get sweet and savory mixing together. I shared a garbanzo bean salad, and that topped with a tea just made the perfect little meal. Glad I finally stopped in. I'm a fan! read more

Fish has a great selection of sandwiches. I love that they sell their breakfast sandwiches all day long. My favorite is the Which Came First - two eggs cooked to order with Muenster cheese and tender belly bacon on ciabatta. Consistent and delicious. read more

I was pretty blown away by both of the sandwiches I tried here. The Thanksgiving sandwich really did taste like Thanksgiving dinner, and you might think that it's a bad idea to put stuffing on a sandwich, but you're wrong. At least they managed to pull it off. I had the BBQ brisket sandwich and as soon as I bit into it Brisket, barbecue sauce and cheese started flying out and I thought, wow, this a really good sandwich. Then I thought out loud, "Of course I ordered this, I'm wearing a solid white shirt." But somehow I was able to keep all of the delicious things falling out of that sandwich away from the shirt. Most of their sides looked like you could make a meal of them alone. I had a side of chick pea salad and it filled with lemon and herbs and probably had 15 different ingredients in it. One thing that's interesting is how large the menu is in relation to the size of the dining room. But there is a decent bit of outdoor seating as well. read more

Dish is testament to the saying "SOQNOP" . For those of you who didn't read business books during the 90s that means Sell on Quality, Not on Price" We went to Dish today for the second or third time and it was better than ever. Everything was fresh, delicious and as others have noted made there that day. My cornmeal crusted catfish was a great blend of flavors and textures. It's not too often that you can get through a big bowl of tomato bisque and not be tired of it by the time you're done. Don't go if you're looking for fast, cheap, quiet, or comfortable seating. Go if you want to eat great food, well prepared, with care. read more

* Star one is for their large selection of mouth watering goodies ** Star two is for their healthy selection of mouth watering goodies *** The third star is for representing tons of local Colorado food suppliers **** Our fourth star is for its cute central location (Star five was taken away due to hard-to-find parking and limited seating options) Dish Gourmet is located on Boulder's popular Pearl street and is a great small eatery that offers salads and sandwiches, as well as prepared gourmet goodies like seafood enchiladas, BBQ ribs, and homemade gnocchi with bolognese sauce as well as other mouth watering yummies. You never see this place empty and it is the perfect location to stop by for a lunch or dunch by yourself or with a friend. This is also an ideal spot to pick up appetizers such as cured meats, olives and cheeses. I came here with my pregnant friend not too long ago and she was out of control... Ordering cupcakes before her meal even arrived, (*gasp) and lacking eye contact due to her longing look at the cold cut case. If the service was not as fast as it was, I am sure she would have torn the place down! Strategy: This place is small, and with hardly any seats. It is one of those kinds of places that you notice one table as soon as you walk in, so you put your coat and your water bottle on the table so nobody else takes it. Avoid this drama and go during off-beak lunch hours. You know, 1:00-3:00pm. read more

Dish is cute (and tiny) cafe on East Pearl street, with 2 tables outside and about 8 small tables inside. They specialize is tasty sandwiches and salads which are written on a large chalkboard in colorful chalk hanging on the wall above the food prep area. My favorite is chicken salad. With your sandwich order you automatically get chips, or for a buck you can add yummy sides like green beans. Inside the glass case they have delicious homemade breakfast menu items, sides and other treats. I really like dish on a warm day so I can sit outside at the shaded tables and watch the pearl street traffic in the breeze. When I'm in a hurry, they have 15 minute parking out front so it is easy to run in, get a sandwich made quickly (they are awesome about that) and dash out. Dish is just all around pleasant like that. read more
