This soup spot is amazing!!!!!!!!! If I could get soup daily I would. They have a daily soup menu that changes as well as sandwiches, fruit bowls, pasta salads. The service is always fast and friendly! They allow you to sample any soup before purchasing. Soup sizes are a cup, bowl and Quart size. Very reasonably priced. There is a large dining area set up much like a cafeteria. Plenty of seating if you decide to dine in. read more

Lunchtime Global - Company logo - Sandwiches Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

This place is an awesome lunch spot in downtown Detroit, with many delicious salads (got the Cape Cod), sandwiches/wraps (like the tuna), great quality fruit cups (the biggest and most variety I've seen), soups (a whole list - got the chicken pot pie), cookies and an assortment of bottled beverages. Also right across the street where University of Michianaga (University of Michigan now in Ann Arbor) used to be. Great, prompt and friendly service and the interior dining environs are spacious with plenty of seats and also some nice ones near the windows. Check it out and highly recommended! read more

Picked up mushroom and spinach soup, garlic parm soup and Cobb salad added turkey to it. The mushroom Spinach was so salty. The garlic parm was ok but it's so heavy, it's more like pasta sauce than soup. The Cobb salad was ok but tasted sweet and I don't know where the sweet taste came from. Overall not really going back. read more

I ordered their Wild Reuben (corned beef, lettuce tomato, onion and Dijon mustard). Quite possibly the WORST sandwich that I have ever had. Everything was good except the meat. It was like rubber. Could not chew through. Had to take a fork and knife to it. Service and ambience were fine. I'll give them another try with a different sandwich. If the next one is this bad, then it's back to Subway. read more

I've been coming to lunchtime global for years. Everything in here is made from scratch. My go to is the soups because they are sooooo good and there's a variety to choose from. You can also sample them or ask for a suggestions. The cookies are phenomenal especially the Carmel apple cookie. I have to grab those before I get in line because they always sell out of cookies fast. They have pasta salads, salads, hot foods, sandwiches so there plenty of options to choose from. There's always a long line during lunch so have a little patience, it's worth the wait. You can get your food to go or sit in the cafe area. read more

This sandwich counter was efficient and quick in delivering a delicious sandwich. The focaccia bread was my favorite part of the meal. I got all the extras too, the homemade cookies were my favorite part. I want to come back and try all the combinations! read more

I just had to remind everyone how much I love Lunchtime Global. Their service and food are top notch. Carrie even took the time too answer my questions with a handwritten note, and that was so nice. They will continue to be my favorite place to order catered breakfast. The Quiche! Order The Quiche! read more

I've reviewed this place before, and get back there every chance I get. This trip I had the Copenhagen salad, with added chicken. As expected, it was very good. For the first time, however, I took home a container of this chickpea salad. It consists of chickpeas and diced tomato, cucumber, and red onions, in oil with chopped parsley and garlic. It was excellent, and I'm likely to pick it up every time I'm there. I also have to give props to their monster chocolate chip cookie. It's a good 4-5" in diameter and soft and thick, with lots of large chocolate chunks. If you're down near Woodward and Jefferson, check it out! read more

I just finished a multi day fast and so I needed something light to break it. There's a soup place in my work building but it's not good. I came across this place and ordered the Chicken Pot Pie soup and Cajun soup. Both were phenomenal and full of flavor! The chicken in both soups was seasoned well and perfectly tender. My favorite of the two would have to be the Cajun soup though because of the spice and Cajun seasoning. Also, the chicken Pot Pie soup also needed a little more flavor and chicken. read more

The classic sandwich is huge! Glad I didn't get the whole sandwich. The soup bowl and sandwich combo is only 10.99. Ton of food for a good price. The Turkey Reuben is very good. Tons of Turkey. I'm not impressed with the chicken pot pie soup. Flavor was good but there's not much in it. Just a lot of thick chicken broth. Almost like cream of chicken with an extremely underwhelming amount of chicken, peas and carrots. No potatoes. I LOVE the pasta salad. Overall like this place and will go back. read more

I love this place, such a welcoming, cool spot to grab some lunch. Deli meat is fresh. I love all their soup options.

Food is really good, the service is quick and friendly and it like a ambiance cafeteria but they are remodeling.

Great place for lunch. Been going here for over 7 years. I appreciate a big sandwich, but if I can't pick it up like a sandwich, I'm not ok with that. I want a sandwich! I ordered an atomic turkey on multi grain before an office meeting. I'm glad I grabbed a fork. Tomatoes and sauce sliding everywhere. Plus the bread had holes/gaps so sandwich broke up. I can't imagine if I was driving, that would have been a MESS! I through the rest away, too much breakup of a sandwich. I just wanted a sandwich, meaning in my hand just enough. I love the African curry soup. No more sandwiches for me from here. It's ok to make 'em big, but a sandwich is meant to be hand held not sit down puzzle. read more

Great sandwich and soups and salads really good customer service always crowded but they get u in and out

I absolutely Love the soups and Sandwiches at this place! I met the creator of all this Delicious Foods Carrie and Oh my! She is Absolutely Special and has a Gift in making such unique soups and sandwiches very Nice person! I have yet to try anything else but will be back to tell you how it goes! The staff are all so Nice and Greets you with a smile! Everyone must try! It's definitely Popular! Thank you Carrie! read more

Lunchtime global is one of my favorite lunchtime spots, but I lowkey have a bone to pick with them. If you order a wrap why they gonna wrap it like a blunt? Everytime I get a sandwich from them the entire wrap falls out of the bottom of the damn sandwich. & this aint no one time thing it happens everytime!!! I stay going back to the crib covered in sandwich juice & yall are just wrong for that. read more

A rotating selection of soups. All stellar and veg& GF options. Salad menu is strong as is the sandwich game. The service is fast and friendly even when dealing with monster downtown lines. I wish they were open seven days a week and later hours and that is my only critique. But we can't have it all. There is a dining area but best works as a grab and go. It is behind a revolving door and somewhat tucked back from the sidewalk but worth it If you are looking for a quick bite near the river walk. read more

great soup and nice big sandwiches lunchtime has big portions and friendly staff. 10/10

Listen: IDK WHAT KIND OF WHITCHCRAFT YALL PERFORMING OVER THESE SALADS. But this boy is bussin.This might Top the Cape salad- my previous favorite.Who made this salad? Call me. We need to talk. 100/1 would recommend! read more

Generous portions and always delicious food. Like the name suggests, they're a lunchtime restaurant but I totally recommend them. The food never fails and you can always expect great service from the team. If you're visiting Detroit for a conference, game, music festival, or the Grand Prix, I suggest paying this place a visit for a good sandwich, soup, or salad. read more

Good quick lunch option. The full wraps and sandwiches are huge and worth every penny.

It should say you close at 3:00, since that's when you actually close. Also, Google says you close at 5:30, that should be updated too.. off to Zoup. I still love your soup read more

Staff is very friendly and quick. Their chicken salad sandwich is excellent. Disappointing on their chicken noodle soup, it was heavily spiced with black pepper. I wish when preparing foods people kept in mind food allergies. Hated dumping a whole cup of soup out. read more

So simple, yet so good. I finally tried this place and initially was scared at the long line to order. The place is in a terrible location and the line literally wrapped in the hallway outside the restaurant. But the staff is quick and even a line 15-20 people deep only took a few minutes. The food is excellent. I had their cheesy tater jalapeno soup and it was absolutely delicious and creamy. I definitely don't want to know how many calories that was! I also had their atomic turkey sandwich, which is basically just a simple turkey sandwich but with some sort of creamy sriracha-based sauce, and that was great, too. There's just really nothing fancy about this place, but they do the basics so, so well. This is definitely one of the better "quick lunch" places downtown, and I'll be back to try more of their soups and sandwiches, since so many of them sounded good. read more

Never a single bad meal. Sandwiches are fire, and soups are full of flavor. If the chef labels it Spicy, trust her!!! It's a regular on my lunch rotation, read more

Detroit's best kept secret (well not for those working in downtown Detroit) for breakfast and lunch. Lunch Time Global, also referred to as LTG, is best known for their fresh sandwiches and soups. Made fresh daily, you are given several soup and salad options to choose from. They even have a salad station filled with salads that include pasta salads and cheese and hummus snack packs. They offer vegan and vegetarian options as well. There is something available for every diet. I was pleasantly surprised to find out they open early to serve breakfast. I ordered a spinach croissant that had tomato and feta cheese in it. It was the most rich, yet divine sandwich I had in a long time. I came back at least two more times to get the same sandwich. Simply delicious and well worth the price tag. read more

Lunchtime Global - Tuna and parmesan gnocchi - Sandwiches Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

Very surprised I'm into this place! Usually restaurants in office buildings can rely on their convenience to stay afloat but I really think this place is tasty. My opinions are limited though because I get the same thing every time - southwestern salad and soup. The greens are always fresh, though the other parts vary a bit - sometimes the crispy strips are too crunchy or the bacon is really hard, but overall, it stands up well to expectation. I like the cilnatro dressing for it, but what I really want is the jalapeno ranch, which they seem to be out of a lot. Over the month-long period during the year when I work in the building, I probably eat here three times a week. All their soups are good. I tend to go for the creamy ones and have yet to be disappointed. Spicy soups are actually spicy, which I love, but a potato jalapeno stands out in my memory as one that was aaaalmost too spicy for me. Almost. The line gets really long during lunch and usually goes out the door, but it moves surprisingly fast. Just overall a really reliable lunch for under ten dollars. read more

A go-to lunchtime spot for myself and what seems like the majority of professionals in the Downtown Detroit area. Don't be threatened by any long lines because they move through it fairly quickly. Plus, it gives you time to look at their large variety of soups while you wait. As other reviews have mentioned, they have quite the selection of soups. Anywhere from a spicy chicken chili, to a unique chicken noodle, Parmesan chicken, spinach and artichoke dip, tomato and the list goes on and on...and we're still just talking about soup! They also have rotating hot bar items, cold pasta salads, fruit, cheese and cracker trays and a short list of sandwiches on homemade breads. The deals will also reel you in if the food options haven't. For a bowl of soup, whole sandwich and a drink...you're paying less than $10. Shooooot, I'll take that with a brownie please! read more

Walk past this place at lunchtime on any given weekday and the line is always out the door. I hopped in the line one day and I found out why! Fresh? Check! Good? Check! Fast? Check! Around a dozen varieties of homemade soup each day including vegan options. While I like many of them, my very favorite choice is the chicken and wild rice. It's jus so savory and rich. You can get a cup, bowl or even a quart of your fave. And then there are the fresh made sandwiches and salads. You. And get a combo made up of any tie soup, salad or sandwiches as well. And if you're feeling extra hungry let's talk about the home cooked daily entree special that usually includes a meat dish, pasta, rice or potatoes, and veggies. Yummy! Finally there's the cold case with a variety of cold pasta salads, hummus and cheeses. They even have grab and go snacks like chips and sweets. And you can take out or eat in. So, next time you pass by the First National Building at lunchtime and you see a line winding out the door onto Congress St, hop in line and find out why so many people think Lunchtime is a local fave. read more

For the first two weeks after I started working in downtown Detroit I was actually scared that I would starve to death. Or be forced to go to Jimmy John's every day... forever. I couldn't figure out how there could be so many office buildings, with so many people, and no options at all for lunch. I mean, where were those people eating? Or were they all packing lunchboxes like industrious sixth graders? It just didn't make any sense. Then I found Lunchtime Global (which is literally not very easy to do-- it's around the corner from where it should be and generally covered by scaffolding). It has since become a three day per week destination. LG has a selection of fresh, made-to-order salads and sandwiches. It also has daily specials, generally including a quiche and a panini. Occasionally the special is Keith's standout chicken meatloaf. Those days are very good for me. But what is better than good are the soups. LG offers a half-dozen varieties per day, with a mix of vegetarian, vegan, and meaty. They range from your standby favorites (butternut squash) to your new favorites (african peanut) to the downright adventurous (polish dill pickle) . And I would venture to say that all of the soups are handmade, though nobody's ever said it to my face. My only advice (for you, not them)--- get here before 1:30 pm for lunch, because once the soups are gone, they are gone for real. And, while I rarely comment on staff (since people don't go to a bad restaurant for good service), I will here. They are awesome to the last. And nice as can be. read more

Lunchtime Global offers more unique sandwich and soup options than you can shake a stick at! If you're a carnivore, go for the Jive Turkey sandwich. It is mouthwateringly delicious with melt-in-your-mouth smoked turkey, romaine, tomato, and mucky duck mustard. Are you a vegetarian? Then go for the Sweet Potato & Red Pepper sandwich. YUM! But if that doesn't appeal, perhaps falafel will. An eclectic variety of soups are offered, from dill pickle to Tuscan chickpea, to African peanut, they are all tempting. A 1/2 sandwich and cup of soup only sets you back $7.25, which is a great price because the 1/2 sandwich here equals a full sandwich anywhere else. Oh - and their salads are fresh and good, too. Try it; you'll like it! read more

I've been coming here for over 5 years and the food has continued to get more expensive and of a lesser quality. Their prices in store don't match the prices they list online which is odd since they update their website daily. I give them chance after chance because they're convenient to my office but they can never get my order right and half the time they drown the $9.00 salads in dressing so they're not edible. read more

Lunchtime Global is a beacon of reliable mediocrity in an endless downtown sea of corporate-friendly lunch options. The great things include a full spread of sandwich and salad options. The staff are excellent and the service is fast. There's a broad range of soup options, too, ranging from objectively delicious by any metric to "eyyo what else we got in the back to throw in this pot? also, add a bunch of salt to this and call it a special." It's a great spot for a casual lunch meeting or appointment, or a place to sit and eat, avoiding both poles of "grimy fast foody" or "precious/sterile trendy." I've been coming here for years with mixed success. It is right on the edge-- if the quality were slightly better, for example, or if the prices were slightly lower, it'd be unequivocally great. read more

If you work downtown in Detroit and you don't know about Lunchtime Global - then you better educate yourself. It's nothing fancy, but it is lunchtime staples done extraordinarily well. Soups, salads, and sandwiches. Doesn't sound all that exciting, but they do each one of these amazingly! I would eat lunch here everyday if it wasn't economically unwise! The lines are typically pretty long during peak lunch hours, but don't turn around and walk the other way. They cruise through these lines with focused professionalism. Even though they are moving quickly they also are very friendly and helpful. Take a friend to lunch here - you both won't regret it! read more

I really want to give them a good review. But the consistency has been terrible. I like the bistro sandwich and sometimes it has a nice big chunk of Brie (how it should be), and sometime so little you can't taste it. It makes a BIG difference the days they go "light" :( read more

I am a soup fanatic and I'm yet to have one I am not a fan of. You can also check their website for their daily soup specials to avoid having to look through the long list when you are in line. My favorites are the Creamy Tomato Basil and Cream of Mushroom soup. You can also ask for a sample of soup if you are unsure. Always hot and quick to be served. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because of the service being hit or miss! Some days the employees look miserable, and you almost feel like a pain when they are taking your order. Also have had a couple of instances when the employee that is handing out the soup has too many, and has given me the wrong order, so be mindful of that! Dropping my review from 4 to 3. The past few times I have gone the soups have been way over seasoned (salt, pepper, etc...) and hard to eat. read more
