If you know me you know I love a good sammy. Duck and Decanter delivers amazing sandwiches, fresh salads and more!! There's outside patio seating and plenty of shaded spots outdoors. They even have a little water bowl station for your pups!! Hubs and I both got a build your own turkey sandwich, mine on sourdough and his on French bread. We also got some macaroni pasta salad and some desserts. For the 2 sandwiches, pasta salad, brownie and fudge it was $40. The build your own come with as many toppings you would like. They are generous with the meat and veggies! I loved my sandwich and liked they had sprouts available which I love on sandwiches. The sourdough was fluffy and perfect. (They also offer to toast it if you like). Hubs loved his sandwich but the French bread was a little tough like a beef jerky. You really had to pull on it to eat it lol. The macaroni salad was a mayo base with dill. It was fabulous and the kids really enjoyed it as well. They also have cookies, fairytale brownies (which is a local business), fudge and more. Take your time shopping while you wait for your order. Overall, an awesome sandwich spot to cure all your sandwich wants! We will definitely be back in to try their soups next too! read more

Nice spot for outdoor dining but have not been impressed lately with the quality of their sandwiches. I dined with several friends who had never eaten there, and they rated the food as good but not great. read more

Duck and Decanter isn't just a restaurant--it's a Phoenix institution, a community, and a place where every meal feels like home. The Blue Turkey Salad is my absolute favorite. It's fresh, flavorful, and consistently perfect--one of those meals you crave before you've even finished the last bite. But as much as I love the food, what truly makes this place special is the people, especially Jolynn. Her warmth, kindness, and dedication to this place and its guests shine through in every detail. The Mettler family has built something extraordinary here, and you feel it the moment you walk in. Whether you're stopping by for a quick lunch or settling in for a relaxed afternoon, Duck and Decanter isn't just a great spot--it's a Phoenix treasure. read more

I like that you can build your own sandwich, selecting bread, fillings and dressings and all sandwiches come with optional pickle in a zip lock bag so that your sandwich doesn't get soggy. They prepare gluten free sandwiches in a separate location to help prevent cross contamination and while you wait there are cool food and gift items to look at. The seating upstairs is nice with a variety of nooks and crannies where you can find quiet areas if desired. The only drawback was the gluten free half sandwich was very small, Likely due to the small size of the GF bread. It was also hard to eat the carrots as they were large spears, I thought they would be thin slices or shredded. I'm glad I also got a side of coleslaw which was very good, healthy and not too much dressing. read more

I have been going to the Duck for years now. We used to go a lot when they had a really neat outdoor setting and music. Whereas that has all changed now, the food is still good, and I like to still go and grab a albacore tuna sandwich on marble rye for lunch from time to time. I appreciate that they are still open. They have lunch specials everyday and I love their selection of teas. I do miss the old patio and music, but again, I do highly recommend stopping by and grabbing lunch. read more

This place is such a gem. Duck and decanter is a Phoenix classic. Cozy interior with super friendly staff that are all nice, helpful, and smiley. The sandwiches at this place never disappoint. I got a mini turkey sandwich on sourdough and it was the perfect sized lunch for me. They have free pickles with all orders, and their Diet Coke is extra crispy. I love this place, if I could give Duck above 5 stars I would. The best spot!!! read more

Good fresh ingredients. Bread was a little hard for both sandwiches. Soup was good with a lot of flavor. Nice outdoor area that was dog friendly. Definitely worth going back to and trying something else next time. read more

D&D was referred to me by a local colleague. "Great Sandwiches" I needed 90 different individually wrapped sandwich/salad options within 24 hours. JoLynn was patient, informative, and helpful all around with talking me though the best options and making recommendations for the dietary restriction options. Many thanks for making the process easy for us. Lunch was huge success. PS: Also the kind team of associates helped me to my car for the pick up of 6 boxes without being asked. read more

Most of the indoor seating is upstairs, you might want to keep this in mind if you don't want to eat outside in the Phx heat. Although, when it is nice out, there is plenty of outdoor (both shaded and non-shaded) seating. Sandwiches are pretty good but are slightly overpriced for their proportions in my opinion. They have lots of options for drinks including different teas. read more

Darling place. Great food. Friendly, mature/well established staff. Clearly a local staple with a dedicated following.

I love everything about the duck!! Great sandwiches and just a lovely environment. Everything's quick and delicious.

Duck and Decanter has always been one of my favorite places for a tuna sandwich. The last two times we've gone, I was very disappointed. We went about a month ago and I ordered an albacore tuna on a pita. There was barely any tuna. I could have put it on one side. I figured it was just a fluke. Yesterday, my husband met friends there for lunch. I wasn't able to go, as I had surgery the day before. I asked him to bring home some tuna. Imagine my surprise when I opened my half pound container to see there were more water chestnuts than tuna. There was enough tuna to make one sandwich. I hope Duck and Decanter isn't changing how they prepare and serve their food. read more

Ordered the Fiery Italian sandwich and it was great. The deli meats and the condiments used were delicious. They also have other items to buy. For example I bought a LB of coffee called "Cafe Mexicano" this coffee blend is phenomenal. read more

I've meant to write a review for this place as we have been here a couple of times, but when that sandwich arrives, I just haven't been able to wait to take the picture! Finally, a picture! One of the great differentiators of this place is the sheer number of different patios and outdoor seating options they have, it's absolutely fantastic to enjoy the beautiful Arizona weather. There is covered seating available, in the sun seating, even small back patios where there's only two or three tables, so take your time and look around! A tip- take the time to look at the menu before you go as it is slightly overwhelming the first time you walk in the door. Not only can you custom create any deli sandwich with all sorts of toppings. They also have a pretty voluminous menu of their creations. The first time we went, we simply asked what was the most ordered thing on the menu and they said the albacore tuna sandwich, it was absolutely fantastic. The picture here is of a mini sandwich! They are absolutely huge. You can order a whole sandwich if you have a huge appetite, but I love the fact that you can get a half and still walk away with leftovers. Hubby has also tried the Fiery Italian and he loved it- although no picture as he dug right in and I couldn't get the camera out fast enough. The other item that has become a favorite is the creamy herb chicken sandwich. They do have daily specials as well they have a rotating selection of soup. They also have a wine/bar area, which we have not tried yet but we will absolutely be coming back to do so. We did see some folks ordering a bottle of wine and a charcuterie tray for lunch, that looks like fun! There is also a little store with local goodies, but haven't had time to investigate. One of the other great things that they have is a variety of flavored iced teas, along with regular black tea, so it's fun to investigate what the flavors of the day are. This is absolutely going to be a regular spot for us. read more

They are consistently good, expedient and the quality is high. I love meeting people here for lunch.

Takes me back to having lunch with my mom and dad. It was their favorite place when visiting. My favorite is egg salad on French bread. Thanks for the fond memories. read more

Stopped by for lunch! Food was great. It's hard to find a good gluten free bread and it was okay I'm still adjusting to being GF so I'm picky about my breads. We also got a few goodies from their little shop. The service was great. They have ample seating inside and out, it's the perfect area for a little lunch date. Definitely recommend! read more

Felt like a meal made with love, the atmosphere here is special and the ability to shop is a really cool take. Will be back!

I recently met a girlfriend here for lunch. We both ordered sandwiches, they were delicious. This place has a constant flow of business. I bought one of the packages of soup, you just add broth and protein, it was pretty good. Friendly staff too. read more

WOW. I have not been here in years but I can't believe how good my sandwich tasted. I ordered the spicy Italian sub. The bread was amazing. It was so fresh. It had the perfect combo of meat and veggies. I will be ordering this again! read more

Sad excuse for chili. I was so excited to have some decent chili, and it turns out, they don't know what chili is. Chili is supposed to be thick and grainy, not soupy and watery. Their chili is not a stew, but a lame, overpriced soup. It was okay, just a watery-based cup of beans and brisket - not chili. read more

Always a great spot for a sandwich. Cool space in the bar area to eat. My only caveat would be the price point compared to the size of the sandwich. read more

We got a charcuterie board to share and a couple glasses of wine. I picked out exactly which cheeses I wanted (also salami and prosciutto) and watched as they sliced them fresh. The serving size was much larger than I thought it would be and it also came with some seedless grapes and whole olives. I was pretty surprised when it was only $22.95 for the food! THe atmosphere was welcoming and the woman pouring the wine behind the bar was very friendly. In fact, everyone working there was very friendly. I also bought a slice of flourless chocolate cake to eat later, but must confess it never saw the inside of my fridge as I gobbled it down in the car on the way home. It was a mouthful of cocoa goodness! read more

Wow, what a wonderful establishment! The sandwiches are superb and the staff are friendly, efficient, and truly expert sandwich artists. Plenty of seating upstairs, downstairs, on the back patio, and the front patio. Lots of cute decorations and a beautifully curated market with several locally-sourced products to peruse while waiting for your sandwich, including a book of the history and recipes of Duck and Decanter written by a family member and owner of the deli. I love that! I really enjoyed the marinated roast chicken sandwich on multigrain bread with mayo, mustard, Swiss cheese, tomato, sprouts and red onion. Absolutely delicious. Perfectly crafted, everything in the right ratio. The chicken is the special on Wednesdays and comes with your choice of chips or coleslaw and a drink. I opted for the coleslaw and it was lovely - super finely shredded cabbage with a little carrot and seasoned nicely, not too much mayo as some coleslaws tend to be prepared. They have a soda fountain as well as a selection of five house brewed iced teas. I had iced tea and it was a nice midday pick me up. Sandwiches come with up to two optional pickle spears, a classic accompaniment to a fine deli sandwich. Duck and Decanter is one of the best places in Phoenix and I will definitely be back! :) read more

Good evening was there ordering some food today 04/01/25 as I usually do twice a month. I have gotten to know a few employees so just wanted to make an observation. This is the second instance where Jolynn one of the managers there berate an employee. This time she was yelling at a young man named Adrian who helped me a number of times. Very polite and courteous. She was yelling at him as she's at the register ringing someone up. Very disrespectful and unprofessional I must say. If this happens again I will not frequent this establishment anymore. read more

DUCK NOONER This Smoked Duck Sandwich is Amazing. @duckanddecanter Is an amazing deli making some great sandwiches, salads, and even breakfast. They have an espresso bar, wine bar, and beers on tap w/ a great variety of craft cans. Make sure to check out all of their grocery items, provisions, and unique cheeses. I will be back for the duck salami that they sell. They have been at it in the Valley for almost 5 decades. I had: The Duckling Smoked duck breast, roasted turkey breast, cream cheese, cranberry relish & spring mix on cranberry walnut country bread The herbed chicken salad was also amazing.

We have been going here for years. Gluten free sandwiches are available. Their Gluten free bread was way better a few years back, but still okay currently. The staff is very friendly and it's a great place to sit and visit! Lots of seating inside and out. Big selection of beer, wine and fresh loose leaf ice teas. read more

I've driven on the freeway for years seeing their little sign that hangs over the wall and always wanted to go but never have. 4 years later I finally came and I'm glad I did, I will be coming in the regular now. The staff was so friendly, the food was amazing, and there was a market I will have to get some things from next time I'm in. There's a cute bar and even seating upstairs if you'd like. read more

I just discovered this long-standing sandwich place for the first time today and am so glad I dropped by. They have a large variety of meats, cheeses and bread to choose from, and my roast beef on French bread did not disappoint. It was fresh and fantastic. My only minor gripe is that the workers seem to have graduated from the Subway Academy of Condiment Application, slathering on the mayo and mustard with wild abandon! (But that can always be removed with a trowel!) I also enjoyed the cute vibe of the shop. It has lots of unique items for sale, including some monstrous rice crispy treats that caught my eye. I didn't try one, but I had to snap a picture. It would be a good place to pick up a gift for someone, or a treat for a friend. I'll definitely be back to try other sandwich combinations. read more

I've been a regular for almost 13 years. It's a must every time I visit Phoenix. And it's not just the gorgeous creative variety of sandwiches or healthy options available (oh they have indulgent options too!) but the overall care and attention to detail that sets them apart. I love seeing the patrons who regularly come play cards in the wine room. I love seeing the families with their children who play in the toy chest. I've witnessed first dates and folx of all kinds congregate here, exhibiting a real sense of community, all over delicious food and wine. Maybe it's that it's a family run business that makes one feel the love, but this is one of the warmest most hospitable joints in all of the US. And I'm a New Yorker. This spot is truly one of a kind! read more

Great sandwich and potatoes salad, and super unique interesting building in the heart of Phoenix. Hidden gem for sure!

They make a great sandwich. I have had many of them and they all have been good. The duckling, i think it is called, is delicious I would definitely order it again. The curry chicken salad was also good. 4 stars because it still leaves me hungry. I could put down 2 sandwiches easy. The sandwiches do not come with a side so it gets sort of pricey for a sandwich, a side and a drink. read more

I had a turkey and bacon sandwich and hit was fresh and delicious. Love the chill vibe in this place. Oh and great tea.

Love the Duck! Long time favorite and always consistent. A friendly helpful and welcoming family owned restaurant.
