I guess Harrison's is so popular because it doesn't have much competition in Burlington--there are only so many pita places in the area. That said, if you equate "pita place" with "healthy and light," you probably shoudn't go here. The food is really greasy (I will agree that the ranch is delicious, but that doesn't exactly make a meal). Additionally, I have no idea how it happens, but this place seems to be perpetually staffed with apathetic, unprofessional teenagers. But maybe that's supposed to be part of its charm? Whatever makes the place so great, I'm definitely missing it. I would basically never recommend Harrison's--if you want a good pita place, go to Greensboro. read more

Great food, Paul is a an owner that really cares about the customer experience, I am a sucker for good potato salad and they deliver! Smoked Turkey sandwich is great, Tuna sub is excellent and the Steak and Cheese is outstanding! read more

Harrison's is great for a local sandwich, lunch restaurant. The food is good, however small portions in a fat America. A bit pricey too. It is always busy since it's hard to find a good-feeling local sandwich, lunch cafe when everything else is a chain. Yes, they do have good pita, and alright baklava. The service is just fine. It's always confusing to me though when you're expected to just leave your dirty dishes on the table when you're done. Hate to say it, but I'd still recommend Panera over these guys even though I'm a local eats fan. That's why I say this place is just a-okay. read more

Consistently good food. Their marinated teriyaki chicken kabobs are great! So is the marinated pork kabobs. My wife loves their cheese sticks appetizer. Never had a bad meal here! read more

They serve up some nice sandwiches and kabobs here at low prices. They have been in business for years and years and have a loyal clientele that love the place. Service is very good as well. read more

Great sandwich spot! By far the best ranch dressing you can find in Burlington. You can order it by the pint

The food is always spot on. But today the young lady at the register had such an attitude. I apologized for interrupting her shift with our order. read more

What made me give this a five star rating was the combination of uniqueness and quality. I like the fact that they use pita bread and skewers but it's not just your traditional Greek stuff. I like that stuff too but it's nice to see another spin put on it. The Teryaki chicken sandwich is the thing to order. I have ordered other things and liked most of them but this is my item of choice. I would like to see them put in a second register for take out orders, at least during peak hours. They allow call in customers to go directly to the front but I always feel weird just walking past everyone. Plus half of the time there are several other people waiting on call ins with you so it doesn't really matter. I certainly recommend this place for lunch or dinner. read more

This was the first time my wife and I tried this restaurant. We had been looking forward to trying it for some time. We were sadly disappointed. Food: My wife had the chicken teriyaki pita sandwich. She found it underfilled and lacking any teriyaki flavor. I had the Grinder which is their equivalent of an Italian sub. It tasted just like a sub I used to eat at an amusement park that I worked at. Its dressing was really good but not all over the sub. The Décor: The tables were too close together. No tv to watch. Stairs everywhere to climb. The Service: Decent. Nothing special. read more

Like the food but sometimes service is poor. Main issue is how employees currently disregard safety if favor of not wearing masks. I wear a mask to protect others from me but their attitude appears to be the opposite. Very disappointed that management has taken this position. read more

I came in to pick up a to go order and the very friendly girl up front offered me a ice water without me even asking. It may seem like nothing but we are in a heat wave of 90+ degree days. Not only is their food delicious and affordable but their staff is incredibly thoughtful! read more

Harrison's - Smoked turkey sandwich served cold on toast - Sandwiches Near Me - Burlington, North Carolina

This place is insanely popular with my former high school classmates - and with plenty of other people as well; lunch here is always busy. To what would I attribute this success? Honestly, probably to four perfectly-toasted pita slices and a cup of accompanying ranch dip, which is just the right amount of runny. This is definitely not the plastic-y, thick, sour stuff that comes out of those little packets. These pita slices, alongside a teriyaki chicken skewer and some potato wedges or a little salad with feta - a darn good meal. In addition to the tasty chicken skewer combos, they have good sandwiches and salads. Their chef salad is delicious and got me through the long, dark months that I spent on Atkins. As mentioned above, if you show up for lunch (or before a high school football game), be prepared to wait. read more

Sometimes the way you are treated the second you walk in the door can ruin your entire experience at a place!! The lady at the counter was absolutely the most rude human I have come across in a very long time. I PROMISE you, I will never come here again and I will tell everyone I know!! I will blast this on every social outlet I have! Way too many people need jobs for you to be so ugly to your customers!!! read more

I stopped in here with my better half for lunch one Sunday and we were both very pleased. She had the tuna salad sandwich which had plenty of fresh tuna and she thoroughly enjoyed while I had the chicken tenders and potato wedges which were also very good. The chicken tenders seemed fresh and thick, not the thin pre-breaded type without anything inside. While I am not usually a huge fan of potato wedges, they were absolutely delicious. Both the chicken and the wedges went great with the ranch that came with it. The location is not big and has limited seating. We got there right as they opened for lunch and were very glad that we did. Within ten minutes the seating was all taken up and there was a nice sized line waiting to order still. We are trying to be adventurous and try lots of new places, but this is one that we are certain to return to soon. read more

One of my most favorite restaurants in Burlington! The cheese sticks are a must have!! I always love the fast and friendly service!

Amazing quality! Very fresh, the onion rings are easily the best I've ever had.. See you soon Harrison's!

This is one of the best sandwich shops in Burlington, and the prices can't be best for the quality. Service is prompt and polite. Helpful with anything you need. In no time at all we were enjoying our sandwiches. Great for a quick lunch or a longer meal with family. Free WiFi makes it a good stop for those working lunches. Would recommend this place to anyone. read more

My favorite place in Burlington for over 25 years! Love the pita sandwiches -ALL OF THEM! The turkey salad is spot on!

Harrison's has great sandwiches and a nice relaxing environment. The price is right and it is a local place - definitely go there!

This is a quintessential small town joint that consistently draws crowds. Personally,I have been coming here for teriyaki chicken sandwiches for years now. It is a staple in my b-town diet and it never displeases. Note get it with a side of honey mustard. It takes the sandwich to the next level! I also recommend the smoked turkey sandwich and shrimp salad sandwich! read more

Harrison's is great. Their teriyaki chicken is awesome. On Thursday nights you can get the teriyaki chicken sandwich combo (chips and a drink) for $4.99. They have some of the best Ranch dressing around. Im not sure if it is made inhouse or what...but it is my fave. Especially when you use the pita bread to get it all up! read more

Awesome amazing HUGE salads !!!!!! Felt like that salad had 3 pounds of meat on it !!!

Great place to grab a sandwich. Friendly atmosphere. Lots of treats. Been coming here for 20yrs.

Great food, but if you're looking to eat here for lunch I suggest take out. It's a very popular spot and there is ver little seating for the large lunch crowd. read more

Absolutely love the teriyaki chicken!! It is so delicious. My friends love the cheese sticks with LOT of honey mustard sauce (they say it's the best in town) it's it's a great place to sit down or take out I usually call when I am in the check out line in harris teeter and by the time I get over there its ready!! Always awesome service! :) read more

Harrison's was always one of our favorite places but we were just so disappointed. We got the teriyaki pita which has gone up in price and it came out looking pathetic. Normally it's overfilled and now it's actually UNDERfilled. It just wasn't worth it. read more

3rd take out order in a row that they left food out! I made sure this time that everything was in our bags and it was not! When I told the cashier that the cheese sticks were missing she quickly said "you didn't order them." I said I did order them and I had paid for them. She looked at the ticket and said "you did order them. I will get them" I waited another 10 mins and when she came back out she saw me still standing there and said she had just checked and the cheese sticks were almost ready. She went back to the kitchen and I watched the cook dump cheese sticks into the oil... another 5 minutes and a different staff person handed them to me. I asked to speak with a manager. Another 5 mins and a lady walked out and I assumed she was a manager. I told her what had happened. She asked me what was missing and I said cheese sticks this time but the service we had gotten the last 3 times we had ordered there was not acceptable. She said "you're right, it's not acceptable."! She then turned around and walked away. By the time we finally got home and opened the bags everything was cold and soggy... except for the fried cheese curds! No longer sticks! They've lost us as customers! read more

One of my favorite Burlington traditions! Harrisons has been around a long time for a reason. Great food, consistently. So fun to order the same sandwich I loved 20 years ago, and still love it this much today. And it tastes exactly the same!! And the service is fast. The Chicken Teriyaki Pita Wrap sandwich is my favorite, and I do order the cheesesticks here but no where else, I do not typically eat cheesesticks. I used to order the Hot Roast Beef which was outstanding but it's no longer on the menu. My kids love to it also, and that's rare because Chick Fil A would normally be their only vote. We do not live in Burlington anymore, but whenever we are passing through, we stop at Harrisons for lunch every single time. Highly recommend. read more

Good sandwiches and good atmosphere make this an enjoyable lunch spot. Everything is clearly made fresh to order, as evidenced by the fairly long wait times considering you really just order sandwiches. You also need to know what you want when you go in, as it's an "order at the counter" kind of place. Stop by for a fresh sandwich when you have time to sit around and are OK sitting and chatting with the people with you. read more

Love it! Club sub is awesome, so are the pita's. Did I mention the cheese sticks are to die for??

The food was o.k. I enjoyed the Turkey sub but the sweet potato fries weren't the best I've ever had. Plus, our table was really sticky.

:/ I don't think my chicken was cooked enough... The restaurant was dirty... I was a little scared when I was inside like I was going to get mugged or something:( the sweet tea was not sweet enough either! I hate to be so harsh... But if I never go back it will be okay:\ read more

Sadly disappointed. This place is not what it used to be. Shrimp salad onmpita used to rock. It's dry now not creamy and the lettuce was rusted. Their fries are not wedges anymore. They are frozen string fries. I'll never go back. read more

I love Harrisons, I live right by it and I eat here 2/3 times per week. I never have anything bad to say about the food and thoroughly enjoy it everytime. But what I do have an issue with is the difference between the day time employees and the night time employees. During the day, everyone is always friendly and kind. But at night the restaurant is run by a bunch of kids who don't give a shit. Very unwelcoming, rude and acts as if it's a burden to serve you. Last night for example, I had to ask them how he was doing, he didn't answer, just stared at me dazed and confused, I had to explain I had a take out order 3 times. Got my food, slammed it on the counter. I had to ask for my drink cups which he rolled his eyes and slammed those down on the counter as well. No sorry, no thanks, no telling us to return or to enjoy our meal, no nothing. Guy didn't respond or say a single word to us during the whole process. And I observed that happen to the couple in front of us and behind us. This won't stop me from coming here again, I just feel like the issue needs to be corrected. I rep harrisons around town as if I own it. Nobody I know will go there because of the issues that I just explained. The response I get from everyone is that I don't want to go there because of the stoner, skater looking kuds that run the place with attitudes during the evening. Fix this please so I can continue to enjoy yalls food multiple times per week. Thanks read more
