    Quaint and accessible!
    Kenge G.

    The quaint and casual Pic-A-Nick has outdoor seating including (you guessed it) picnic tables! There's a swing which brought out the kid in me and it's in a quiet, picturesque area. I'll be honest, I was a little nervous to see the cashier packing heat, but the service was great, and the food was even better! HOURS Tuesday through Saturday, 8:00 am to 3:00 pm for breakfast and lunch. SERVICE Friendly and attentive! The staff made suggestions and were very considerate of my allergies. FOOD Fresh and diverse! I haven't tried breakfast yet but there is a variety! Prices range from $4 - $6. There's the Elvis (banana, peanut butter, honey & bacon on country white bread), Avocado Toast, and Breakfast Burritos stuffed with veggies, eggs, cheese & bacon/sausage. They have Bagelwichs (egg, cheese, ham/sausage/bacon), Breakfast Bowls (fried potatoes, eggs, meat, cheese) and grilled sandwiches on sourdough bread. Yum! My Philly Cheesesteak Wrap with tomatoes, lettuce, mushrooms, peppers & melted provolone was divine! They also have tuna, BLT, club, Lebanon (bologna), Reuben, chicken salad and burgers! I can't wait to try the Russian Wrap with corned beef, Swiss, jalapenos and bacon! Sandwiches ($6-$10) come with chips, pickle & a tiny cookie. They ran out of chips but were kind enough to substitute a delicious side salad made with mixed greens (not iceberg), walnuts, cranberries, tomatoes and cucumbers. They even make their own dressing! They have potato salad, slaw, baked beans and homemade soups! PRICE Most items are $10 or less and worth every penny. I can't wait to return!

    Super great idea and delicious food. Pick your sandwich or wrap, and bread. It comes in a box with a pickle, cookie, chips, napkin, and hand-wipe. Drinks are extra.

    Wonderful spot for sandwiches near Lake Chatuge! I had first read about the Pic-A-Nick Basket Deli in an article in Travel & Leisure Magazine about the lake. We had Dottie's Chicken Salad and Kenny's Club sandwiches. The chicken salad was creamy with a hint of sweet pickle relish. The club was delicious, too. All of the ingredients were fresh. Sandwiches were wrapped well and packed in a box which was perfect to put in the coolers for our boat ride that afternoon. The staff was very friendly and helpful and we look forward to coming back!

    Been getting lunch here for more than a year now and we keep going back. The prices have gone up but it is still worth it. The old adage "You get what you pay for" rings true here. I love the QUALITY and ATTENTION TO DETAIL they provide. I've tried about half the items on the menu and have never been disappointed. Favorites are definitely the Johnny's Philly and Gerta's Reuben grilled on marble rye. The portions are just right, not huge but there is plenty to fill you up. Your food comes very neatly wrapped and sealed with cute little deli seals in a lunchbox. Each lunchbox includes your sandwich, a pickle spear, a cookie, napkins, and a wet wipe. Keep in mind this is a TAKEOUT place with no eat in dining room. You can eat outside if you want but I always carry my food home or to the boat. I call ahead, they tell you how long it will take and they are accurate on the timing. They are generally quick but by calling ahead it makes this a 3 minute stop to pick up your order, pay, and be on your way. Sometimes they have a line so calling ahead saves you time. The staff is super friendly. They will customize your order however you like. I've gotten take out dozens of times and have never had a single mix up or bad experience. Like I said earlier they pay attention to the little details and that elevates their food above most other options in the area.

    If someone had told me I'd find one of the best Cuban sandwiches I've had outside of Florida in…read moreBryson City, North Carolina, I probably wouldn't have believed them--but High Test Deli & Sweet Shop proved me wrong. We stopped in on the recommendation of a local shop owner while we were visiting Bryson City, and I'm so glad we did. Being from the Tampa area, we're pretty picky about Cuban sandwiches. They're a staple back home, so our expectations were high. The owner happened to be there and confidently recommended the Cuban, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. There was a short wait while it was made fresh, but it was well worth it. The sandwich was perfectly balanced, flavorful, and honestly tasted like a little piece of home. We packed it up and enjoyed it before heading out for an afternoon of tubing, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. The shop itself is charming, clean, and has a welcoming atmosphere where you can sit down and enjoy your meal. We didn't try the sweets this time, but they looked delicious and give us another reason to come back. Meeting the owner made the experience even better. He was friendly, welcoming, and clearly takes pride in what he serves. Whether you're a fellow Floridian missing a great Cuban or you've never had one before, do yourself a favor and stop by High Test Deli & Sweet Shop. It's absolutely worth it. This is an easy 5-star recommendation, and we'll be back the next time we're in Bryson City.

    We stopped by High Test Deli and had a fantastic experience. Our group tried the Cuban sandwich,…read moreFrench dip, Italian sandwich, chicken nuggets, and pickles, and everything was delicious. The portions were generous, the ingredients tasted fresh, and the prices were surprisingly affordable. The service was great--friendly, attentive, and efficient. The restaurant was clean, the atmosphere was welcoming, and it was a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. It's not always easy to find a place that delivers good food, good service, and good value, but High Test Deli did all three. We would definitely stop by again the next time we're in the area.
