This is the best fucking place I've ever fucking had. Their bagels are fucking amazing and damn I love that sandwich. I wanna fuck it sometimes. D and don't let me forget about the pickles. Fuck those pickles are good. Five stars five stars goodbye read more

First time-recommended by a friend as her go to place if you are hungry for a salad or a sandwich. I would recommend looking at the menu before you arrive because the board is a little overwhelming and a little hard to read. Thankfully my friend and I were here at 1 pm on a Wednesday afternoon and there wasn't a line. The place did fill up while we were there though. My friend ordered the Chef Salad and a sweet tea. I had the Philly Cheesesteak sandwich with onions and added peppers. They do have a daily breakfast and lunch special posted. Nothing fancy about the restaurant. Local memorabilia decorated the walls so that gave it a sense of "community." Our food was good. Parking was limited. The staff was friendly. I would definitely come again-although I would again choose an "off" time because I imagine this place is quite busy during peak meal times. read more

Great food and service. Good luck parking. Old PBD had better parking. Can't go wrong at PBD. You might have to go down to the bank to park. Not a bad walk for students. read more

The food was quick & delicious. However, the store wasn't suppose to close until 3pm. At 2:40pm the doors were locked & I was unable to go inside to use the restroom or get a to go box. It was very inconvenient. There was also no signs to let us know they were closing early. read more

Similar to a couple of the other reviewers who posted here, I've also experienced negative attitudes from the staff. The workers were not friendly and I derived the feeling that at about an hour before closing, the workers found that serving anyone else was more of an inconvenient annoyance than welcome business. The items I've tried there are tasty and good, but not good enough to overcome the negative attitudes and unwelcome vibe. Also, the booth was sticky and smelled funky so I tried another one that was similar. read more

1.Bread brand changed (rye aroma not there) 2. They hadn't grilled the sandwich to proper crispness. 3. Meat looked dry/old and had off smell 4. Virtually no saurkraut 5. Dressing lacked proper lemon juice/horseradish/chili sauce or catsup tang..just tasted mayonnaisey. read more

Couldn't even eat here. Teenager that works there on Mondays in the afternoon had the nastiest attitude for no reason in 2 separate occasions, which were the only interactions we had in those 5 minutes in there. Even dragged it outside to the parking lot. read more

2 Club sandwichs and sides were good but for $36.00 the bag of chips should be free. Parking is a challenge. Very friendly staff

Good and strong coffee, to go with the best breakfast sandwiches and muffins in town! The new location is very nice but still has that Clemson Tiger feel to it! Can't wait to try out the lunch menu! read more

Possibly the worst sandwich I've eaten there. Ordered the Cape Codder (turkey, cranberry salad and dressing) thinking this would taste like a day after Thanksgiving sandwich. The bread was stale, cranberry sauce literally a slice of the canned gel, and a dab of boxed stove top stuffing. And to add insult to injury- we paid nearly $60 for 3 sandwiches, drinks and chips for the awful food. Ever since they opened in this new location the food quality has suffered tremendously. Sorry. Won't be returning any time soon. read more

Worst restaurant of all time? Ive been pondering on that a lot recently and i think the Pot Belly Deli certainly takes the cake. I mean seriously. Waited what seemed like 45 minutes for a 13$ microwaved burrito. It was an absolute pile of cold crap and each half was no bigger than my fist. I had a terrible day after because of this "restaurant"... didn't really feel like a restaurant, everything was off. In conclusion... don't eat here, just eat anywhere else, like literally anywhere else read more

Super chill environment. The service is quick, even when there's a line out the door. I've tried a number of sandwiches, their bagels, coleslaw and pasta salads- everything is delicious. You really can't go wrong. Can't wait for their new location to open! read more

What a cool little spot! It definitely is popular and has a great college atmosphere. You wait In line and order first w the ladies over the deli counter. Then you continue to wait in line and pay at the front register. You go find a seat and they call your name and you raise your hand- so pay attention lol. Booth seating was cozy. The guys ordered a Philly cheese steak -- they added jalapeños to it and split it. It was a good size (not huge but filling w all the meat). I ordered the tuna melt but doctored it up. I asked for it on Rye bread, subbed pepper Jack cheese, added tomato and lettuce (it already had onion). So so good!! One of the best tuna melts I've had! So flavorful. My son got the kids meal Turkey cheese- subbed cheddar cheese instead of American, and got it on a croissant. I forgot to ask for it toasted, so it was just okay. Cold croissant w cold meat and cheese isn't the best but was edible. We took the other half home and toasted it- yum! Kids meal came w chips and a fountain drink. We also got some Voodoo chips, bbq chips, and the guys got cans of crème soda and black cherry cola. All came to just over $40. Not bad. They were efficient and pretty quick, even when very busy on a Saturday at lunch time. We surprisingly found parking in front in their small lot. They also have an outdoor front patio w some seating. Fun place inside. Lots of collage kids and a mix of families. The place is decorated w lots funny random stuff and with many old records, and had really good music playing too- eclectic mix. There's nothing like a classic deli! Would be perfect to take sandwiches to the lake or a picnic. We'll be back! read more

Nice place and very friendly staff, BUT when you go to a Deli, you should be served a hearty amount of meat on the sandwich.. Ours was tasty but very skimpy especially for the price. $$11.25 for a regular loaf bread size sandwich with no substance. We will not be returning. read more

Rude service and had no remorse when giving someone an allergic reaction when ingredient was not disclosed on menu. Tried to reach out to let them know this happened and they blamed the victim and did not apologize. Very disappointed and will not be back. read more

Been the best in town for a generation. Can't go wrong with anything. Sandwiches are large and delicious.

Food is pretty good. But charging 11.25 for a sandwich and an extra $5 for chips and a drink and still asking for a tip is a little much. Service was not good at all. There's not enough parking, so usually the street is packed with cars and a lot of people end up getting towed. The restaurant is nice inside, but the all orange walls aren't a good choice. read more

The deli was packed on a Saturday which is always a good sign. St. Stephen and the Seven-Ten Split were both good sandwiches.

One of the best sandwiches I have ever had. They also have super cute flavored lattes that are delicious. read more

Was decent food, not sure I'd take the trouble to go back due to distance and location within Clemson. Went offseason so I can imagine it's a difficult spot to get into when the students are back. Parking was somewhat awkward. Food came out quick just not something I'd crave again. read more

We waited forever in line, waited 45 minutes for our order to come out, and then the order was wrong (we had taken it to-go as well so there was nothing we could do about it). After waiting for awhile, we asked about our order and there still was not a lot of urgency in getting it out to us. The only consolation was the food tasted pretty good. Frustrating experience all around. read more

Food is good, but they really need to move the drink dispenser and re organize the way they do the line during lunch. It goes out the door sometimes. Parking for lunch is another issue. There isn't enough. Probably anytime of day other than 11:45am -1pm is good. Honestly, route 123 is dangerous during lunch , so I would avoid that whole area in Clemson. It's too bad, as there are lots of options, but you can't get into them back to work from them in an hour. read more

Always great food. Just wish they were open for dinner. Today I had the Taylor ham croissant and my wife had the ham croissant. We ended up having half of each other's. Croissant. They were both excellent. Food came out fast. This is a great place to eat. read more

Good Breakfast and Lunch. Great bagels and smoked salmon. Wonderful deli sandwiches. Friendly helpful staff. read more

PBD is a Clemson staple! I always order a bagel sandwich and a muffin. I have yet to be displeased with the food. If they ask you if you want your muffin toasted, the answer is yes. It's so good! The service isn't always great - sometimes workers are friendly and sometimes not. Service is quick if it isn't busy, but be prepared to wait if it is busy. The parking lot is small, so you often have to park nearby and walk, which isn't too inconvenient. PBD is definitely worth a visit if you've never been! read more

They normally KILL it- I've gotten several things on the menu. Soups, Salads and Sandwiches are all really good. I took a star off because sometimes they arent consistent. We got an italian stallion for ny husband ( and yeah I could make SEVERAL jokes about that as hs IS italian) But the first time- he LOVED it...like 6 star loved it. The next time they put too much oiland vinegar on it and it was all soggy when he unwrapped it. For me- I love the BLT and most of the time it;s chock full of the BACON! But a couple of times the bacon wasn't drained properly and it was just a big greasy mess. YUCK! And others they have skimped on the amount of bacon. But usually it's all that! Potato salad, chicken salad and the desserts are usually home made level yummy. Great place for lunch! They are not open at dinner so go before 3pm. read more

We had a great breakfast sandwich today. I had the bacon egg and cheese bagel and it was really good.

What a great local place! Very good for lunch and breakfast. We were able to go when there was minimal wait, but I hear during the school year it will always have a long line out the door. Order at the counter and they bring or call out your food order. I ordered the St. Stephen, which has turkey, bacon, tomato, lettuce and a honey mustard spread on a croissant. Very good! I also suggest trying out the voodoo chips or then spicy Cajun crawfish chips. They can be addicting and I plan on buying extra bangs next time I come by. My friend got the breakfast sandwich, either the Gambino or Hambino, and this looked amazing. Also they slice their muffins and toast them, heavenly! Definitely plan on returning and will bring guests! read more

I get the nostalgia, it's packed full of college kids and there's an energy around the room. My sandwich was just OK. I'm not saying don't go there, it's definitely worth the trip. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing. Would I go back? Sure I will, but not on my own. I would go to bring someone else just for the experience. Go for the experience, and enjoy the energy of all the college kids living what they don't realize is an easy life. read more

Visited for lunch on a Saturday afternoon in the summer. No wait at all. We ordered 2 St. Stephen's, 2 fountain drinks, a bag of chips, and side of fruit for about $34. No coke products, only Pepsi and diet DP. There was a hair in my ice unfortunately. The sandwiches came out quickly but were pretty soggy. I have so many fond memories of this place but was let down today. read more

If you have a "call to order" selection on your website maybe you should answer the phone. If you don't have the staff to man the phones your message on Saturday morning should not say "we are closed Monday and reopen Tuesday." Maybe it should say "we are short staffed and game days are extremely busy so we will not be taking phone orders." Also a $5.00 Taylor Ham Egg and Cheese should have more than 2 paper thin slices of Taylor ham. Have eaten here in the past. Might be back if every other place in town closes......maybe. read more

Always hear a lot of good things about this place so I decided to check it out. I ordered the home on the ranch sandwich but was quite disappointed. The sandwich overall was incredibly dry and lacking in flavor. I was quite disappointed. read more

I really wanted to like this place as the vibe is great. However, the service stunk- it wasn't busy and I had to wait 20 minutes for two sandwiches. And they were prepared poorly. A Reuben and a Cherrise should be grilled, not heated in a microwave so the bread is all soggy and the meat falls out of the sandwich. Plus there wasn't a whole lot of meat in either one. Close, but no cigar. read more

Pot Belly Deli is a Clemson staple. I literally have gotten the same Dagwood Sandwich here every time I have gone because it is that good. It is probably the best sandwich spot in the entire upstate of South Carolina. A definite must visit stop while in Clemson!!! read more

Love the breakfast sandwiches! I come frequently around 12pm on the weekends and even when it is busy, service is still great and fast. Highly recommend the sausage, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel! read more

I love PBD. Every time I'm in Clemson, I make a point to go here. My favorite is the healthy club on a croissant with no mushrooms- delish!!! read more

I had the sausage egg and cheese and my fiancee had the bacon egg and cheese (both on everything bagels) and we shared a banana nut muffin. Very tasty, but pretty expensive for how simple the order was IMO. I think a cheaper price tag or more toppings would help justify coming back. Still a great little local spot with tasty food and quick service. read more

Excellent Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Bagel. Also had a Blueberry Muffin "grilled"... Outstanding!
