I got the Turkey and Avocado Sandwich & Pimento Cheese and Bacon Mac and Cheese and they paired really well together. Kind of wish I had just gotten the Mac and Cheese because it's so rich and creamy. I will definitely keep it in mind for next time! read more

This is the first time the Newk's cashier/order rep has gone out of their way to be cold and give the impression customers are ruining their day. Hmmmm Food was still good. Delivered extra quick and delicious and the person bringing it was friendly. Maybe the woman at the counter was just having an off day. read more

First time eating at this location. I got the new 'Boss "Q" Sandwich' with a side of half Mac & Cheese. This is also my first time trying the Mac & Cheese and I gotta say, it was delicious! The sandwich was exceptional, despite some soggy leakage from the coleslaw. Price was iffy. Two large pairs, with bacon and egg added to one salad, and 2 large drinks came out to over $40! When the food came to our table, my girlfriend didn't realize that she didn't have her $4 extra bacon and egg added to her salad. Staff was very kind in working it out, though. Service was excellent with quick waiting times. If in the area, will be stopping back through. read more

I work in the same shopping center, and I order from here way too much! The staff is always friendly, and the food is always fresh. They have the best Caesar salad dressing ever. I highly recommend adding the shrimp to your Caesar salad - you won't regret it! read more

I've always liked Newk's but until Covid is under control I'm not sure if we should be going to this particular location. The tables were very clean and the food was good but I'm bothered by the fact that on the last three visits the same young lady has been getting people's drinks while she has her nose sticking out of her mask. She was also fidgeting with it quite a bit which defeats the purpose of the mask. Any contamination that gets on the mask is now on her hands and therefore on our cups. Since a lot of the things Newk's serves are finger food this is a recipe for disaster. The staff is also not enforcing the mask rules for customers. There are signs that say masks are required but there was a lady in line in front of me that had her mask down around her chin. This is like telling your date that he has to wear a condom but if it's uncomfortable he can snip off the tip. It kinda defeats the purpose. This is a difficult time for restaurants and I understand that but there are so many places that are handling things better. I think maybe we'll have to stay away until Covid is under control. read more

Amazing service!!!!!! Every employee we spoke to was incredibly sweet and helpful, went out of their way to make our experience the best. 10 stars if I could. read more

This review is strictly based in ordering food to go. To begin, get here a little early for normal lunch time. Parking lot is very crowded and shares space with three other restaurants. When you walk in large menus to your right with soups, salads, sandwiches, pizza. I went with the Ultimate salad. Once you place your order they take your name and you wait for them to call you to the counter. When I filled my drink I checked out there Grab 'n Go' cooler. They have a good variety of stuff available here in case you are in a rush. Kind of nice they thought ahead and put a cash register right next to the Gran 'n Go' so you can get in and out quickly My salad was very good. Very fresh ingredients. Plenty of everything. Not the typical salad where you are questioning where the meat or other topping are to find a sliver of the item mixed into the salad somewhere. Staff was friendly and helpful when placing and giving me my order. Want to go back and try one of the pizzas! They look really, really good! read more

I have had better and I have had worse. The service was acceptable and the staff was very responsive. They were pretty busy since I came in on a Saturday afternoon so I can forgive the miserable cashier and having another table pushed up to mine while I was in the middle of eating. The food was good with the loaded potato soup tasting like rich cream with spices and potato...as one would imagine. The sandwich tasted great with a pleasant yeasty, slightly sweet taste from the bread. However, I don't think I would go back anytime soon. The food and service is fine but at the price I paid for half a sandwich, a cup of soup and a drink I could have went to Chili's or Ruby Tuesdays. My inner cheapskate is beating me up right now. read more

I love a good meal from newks!!!! I'm a die hard for the Greek salad with chicken. Fresh with a delicious dressing and made with love obviously. The sandwiches and pizzas are also delicious. I think you could eat here everyday and never get bored. Also the condiment bar is a nice treat to add extra flavour to your meal. Not like you need it though. The ambience is on point for the lunch time crowd. Servers are friendly and know their stuff. See you next time!! read more

Soup, salad, pizza, sandwiches. Really there is something for just about anyone. I always get the Newks Q. It's meats, cheeses and white BBQ sauce! Amazing! To go with my sandwich the potato soup always calls my name! I just wish that they offered it every single day, but they only offer certain soups on certain days of the week. My husband always gets the margarita pizza! To me, their pizzas aren't that great compared to all of the other pizza places in Birmingham! This particular Newks is nice. They have nice decorations and the staff is helpful and friendly. I've never actually sat down and ate, I always call in to go orders, so I can't speak for the service you get after picking up the order. read more

I've eaten at this restaurant numerous times in the past and have always been pleased with the service and food. Due to COVID-19 restaurant restrictions, curbside service is only available. I placed my order online and paid prior to arrival. Once I arrived there was an employee at the curbside door ready to pass out orders. The ease of ordering online and picking up via curbside was very efficient. Oh yes I must say that the food was warm super delicious once I arrived home. Thanks Newk's! read more

The store is always clean, the food is always fresh. The kitchen staff can be a little loud but it's not ridiculous.

Under state health department order ALL employees are to wear mask. But it does absolutely no good if they are wearing the mask continuously under the nostrils or just hanging around neck. Observed 7 of about 12 employees non compliant including kitchen and front staff. read more

Just ordered from here through DoorDash and while I have ordered through this method before from Newks and others this time the sandwich came through missing some things. I ordered the Newk's Q and I know it comes with bacon but the bacon was only on one side of the sandwich in a ball. Don't think I'll be ordering from here again, things just aren't as you order. read more

Newk's Eatery - Great salad!! - Salad Near Me - Hoover, Alabama

Newks has a variety of soups, salads, sandwiches and pizza dishes. It is a franchise establishment that has a pretty heavy following. From the other reviews I'm sure you get the gist of what the highlights are and what is popular. What I particularly like about newks is the size portions of the sandwiches and the consistency of how they serve the food. All the locations I have been to have also been fairly clean as well staff is polite and accommodating for a fast casual restaurant. Sure there are times when you wait a little longer than others especially during lunch hour. I like the turkey breaststroke sandwich and i alternate between the soup or salad. A healthier option when looking to be conscious of the fuel you feed your body. read more

Chicken Tortillas Soup is amazing! The Debra pizza is awful. The chicken was SUPER over cooked and dried out I pulled it off. The pizza without the chicken was ok. The staff here is very nice. The place is clean. Everything else was at least 4 stars or higher, BUT that was the worst pizza I've ever had in my life. read more

Great service at this location! Order never went through to Newk's from GrubHub. Newk's took care of it quickly.

OK, I won't bore you with what we already know about the Newks franchise. Do they have tasty soups, salads, sandwiches, & pizza? Yes! Great place to grab an affordable meal for sure...but hey, you already knew that! This location deserves a special shout out from me due to their consistency each & every time I call in an order. I will admit... I usually don't order during peak hours so I'm sure that contributes to my A+ service but good service is good service. My order is always correct & ready for pick up when I arrive. Unlike the other locations, they always follow through with small details on to go orders just as they would if you were dining in....& for that, I greatly appreciate them. Thank you Hoover location for all you do....keep up the good work! read more

I haven't been to Newks in a while so we decided to go have a salad & sandwich. With my experience, a lot of restaurants are great the first year or six months. So I wasn't expecting bad service but not 'top notch'. One word from me was 'Wow!' The service was not the same as when they first opened (which was awesome) but they have stepped up and the employees & managers being available at all times was impressive! This is go-to lunch place for now on. I would love to suggest lids for water cups. Maybe you have them and I didn't see them. However, the food made up for it. Great salad! Great sandwich! My little girl had pizza (which I had to try a bite) and it was so good! I have many lunch dates and this place is 'it'! Thanks for such a great experience! Impressed! read more

I have been to Newk's several times both as a customer and doordash driver and I've always had a great experience. However this was not the case. It was obvious that I was waiting on a turbo order and several employees just walked right past me without acknowledging me or saying hello. No one had a smile on their face and look to be very disgruntled to even be at work. This is so unfortunate because as I said I've always had more and I go to experience every time I went in there. Or either overworked or just plain miserable people. Either way I'm more than likely will not be returning as a? read more

Always good food! We ordered the Club sandwich with chips and the Mediterranean pizza with the 1/2 Caesar salad. Everything was very flavorful and enjoyed it. Only 2 small complaints. Chicken on the Mediterranean needs to be cut a little thicker or something so it doesn't dry out in the oven. And PLEASE, get some shades or something because most every guest was crowded away from the windows just so you could see without squinting. Every time I've been for dinner, the late afternoon sun blasts through the windows. And to bring it back to a positive, the staff was very friendly and polite. Thanks! read more

Today was my first time going to Newk's. It was spacious enough to accommodate the lunch crowd without feeling overwhelmed or packed. I went to meet with another local business owner to discuss business and get to know each other. It is a nice casual place but professional as well. I ordered a Caesar salad with grilled chicken. When I placed the order I mentioned it being my first time and was warmly welcomed. Later during my meal I was visited by the very person who took my order. I felt appreciated. The employee (can't remember his name) shared the most popular menu items and the soups that were going to be added to the menu for the upcoming seasonal change. My food came promptly and the waiters were accommodating. All in all it was a good experience with good food. I will be going back and try other plates! read more

One of the best Newks locations. Honestly I'm just a salad freak and haven't ventured out to much on the menu but I've heard nothing but great things about everything else. The chicken salad is pretty good also. This location gets a little crowded sometimes and service gets slow. I was slightly disappointed because they forgot things in my order that I didn't realize till I got home. I'm sure those small bumps can be overlooked. Pretty solid service and lunch spot. read more

Wow food was good and it's my fault but I ordered chili and it had mushrooms which I hate. Then I looked it up and it had wine in it...another thing I hate. I do love Newk's read more

Daughter got the Shrimp PoBoy which she devoured. Husband and I both got the Newk's Q. FANTASTIC ! I love this place. Only reason for 4 stars, they were busy and we saw our food sitting for over 10 minutes. When we got it, it was cold so we sent it back and got fresh and hot sandwiches. Wonderful. read more

My family of 4 came for an early lunch on Xmas Eve. The place is usually packed on Saturday afternoons but this holiday Monday was pretty slow. That was good because we had our pick of table. Two of us had chicken salad sandwiches and those two people swear it's the best chicken salad anywhere. One had the steak and mushroom pizza, it was delish and finally one had the chicken pesto sandwich and half salad with sherry vinegarette. All the items were delicious and we'll definitely be back. read more

Riverchase Newks has been my Sunday lunch place since it opened. The food was excellent and the portions were generous. Then, a couple years ago I noticed that half of my sandwich was plain bread, no meat, cheese, condiments. So I switched to the salads. Again, nice big bowl full of mixed greens. Then they got new bowls last year. Noticeably smaller bowls. Still there was the Triple-Take salad so I was happy. As of this week though, no more Triple-Take. It was removed from the menu. I think I need a new Sunday go- to place. read more

Came here after the gym just to grab a pizza. We ended up sharing it Ordered, sat down and got the pizza in about ten minutes. This might have been the best pizza I've had in a really long time. We got the pepperoni with light sauce and added bacon. The fresh basil is really what made it though. Will definitely be back. read more

Have loved newk's in the past for their A-MAZ-ING chicken salad sandwich with spicy mustard. It's like an unhealthier, yummier panera. However this isn't my favorite newk's experience. Got here at 1ish on a sunday. Planned for a group of 9, which is a bit ambitious for a busy restaurant but thought we could make it work given it's size. There were NO tables and my husband and I desperately grabbed an un-cleared-away 4-seater when it came available thinking we could combine when the rest of the party arrived. There was no place to dump the dishes and a busboy came around eventually. We moved again when a 6-seater came available, then tried our luck outside--no tables big enough for 5+, and all covered in dishes and trash, so then moved back inside and squeezed into another booth which worked since two members didn't show. Again, the place was busy but this table was ALSO not cleared and covered in crud that we had to clean up ourselves. By this time our sandwich order had been in for half an hour or more and I went to ask a nearby employee, simply because I thought they might have lost us in our frequent moving around which would've been understandable. The guy sounded very frustrated and brushed me off with an "as you can see we're very busy" and cut me off before I could explain why I asked. I may try another newks again (downtown and hwy 280 have proved good) but the chicken salad sandwich of my dreams has dwindled a bit. It just didn't taste as good! :( TL:DR -- I doubt they take reservations. Don't go during peak hours with 5+ folks. read more

I love this place for the awesome selection of salads. Newk's favorite salad is my favorite i know right the name of the salad is favorite and it has now become my favorite. Love the assortments of fruits and artichokes . Always greeted with friendly smiles and fast service. read more

Service is terrible at the Inverness location in Birmingham, tables are never bussed, dirty....not going back...

The manager was fantastic, he grilled a piece of Salmon with no seasoning for me, and went out of his way to make sure it perfect for me....Thank you for the great customer service. read more

The food is very rich and full of so much oil. Read the pizza menus carefully. Pizzas do not come with a marinara sauce they are mostly pesto sauce. The pesto sauce is so much oil that my veggie pizza just tasted like artichokes in oil. My son got a kids cheese pizza. It is not an ordinary cheese pizza. It is a pesto oil sauce with 5 different cheeses which were so oily that we had to towel off the top before he would try it. He didn't like it at all because of the sharpness of the different cheeses. My husbands salad had excessive dressing as well. So if you are a fan of sauces and oils this place is for you. read more

I have always heard about Newk's eatery pizza's I have tried mostly everything but the pizza and the pizza was better than dominoes and pizza hut in my open. It was fresh and hot out the oven. Customer service was outstanding and the wait was not long at all. I recommend everyone to try their pepperoni pizza . read more

The pizza here greasy, messy, and nearly impossible to eat. I don't understand how a pizza that is 8 inches and this bad in quality could be 9$. I will not be coming back here. read more

This Newk's is located right behind Panda Express and Steak n' Shake in Hoover. I've been here about 20 times - all for lunch. I've ordered pickups and I dined in several times. My first Newk's experience was in Charlotte, NC. I used to go to Newk's for lunch every single day when I was there on a business trip for 8 months. When I moved to Hoover, there was no Newk's around here so I definitely missed their Newk's "Q" sandwich, which is the most delicious little sandwich. As soon as I heard Newk's was coming to the old Chinese restaurant space, I was very excited. The restaurant is clean and organized, the wait time isn't too bad unless you have a group of people eating together. My favorites are Newk's "Q" sandwich and Spicy Shrimp pizza. For some reason, I'm addicted to those two. I am pretty sure I had ordered that sandwich like 10 days in a row at one point. I have gotten to know one of the regional managers at Newk's, and he seemed cool too. However, I'm pretty sure he doesn't know that I am a frequent guest because he gives me that free meal card every time I see him. read more
