Drive thru menu
Lorri D.

Okay, this is not a place that I would normally have selected, but my DH has childhood memories of Schlotzsky's so I wanted to indulge him. When we parked and I saw the picture menu board for the drive thru, I admit that I panicked, but continued. Walking in, this is a fast food restaurant - in case the drive thru didn't give it away - the same picture menu board was inside and as an added bonus there was also a slightly sticky laminated menu. I honestly ordered the first thing I saw...Bacon grilled cheese. We collected our table number and sat and our food was brought out so quickly In wasn't sure it was ours and I had to review the menu for what I ordered...It was ours. I looked at my bacon sandwich oozing real avocado slices on its pretzel bun and I was pleasantly surprised...Took a bite and WOW...this is actually really good. I doubt that I'll be back to Schlotzsky's any time soon, but my first and likely last visit wasn't too bad - minus the fast food qualities of the place.

Normally they are decent but we won't be coming here again. Cinnabon tastes stale and hard also my soup wasn't hot. And where is my extra icing?

Chicken Smokecheezy with side of chips! Washing it down with a tall raspberry lemonade!

When you have a craving for a sandwich then come here! They never disappoint. Always fresh, always clean, and always friendly. This place is in a class by itself. Wish there was one on the northeast (Spring Valley/Sandhill) side of Columbia, SC (hint hint owner)

You could say I am a frequent flyer at Schlotzky's. The staff has ALWAYS been courteous and the food is always hot. I believe I have tried 90-95% of the menu. A few of my favorites have been taken off the menu. I really enjoyed the pastas. The macaroni dishes are ok but not the same as the pasta. I also like the flatbreads and sandwiches. My absolute favorite is the Turkey Avocado Cobb salad with red wine vinaigrette dressing! Delicious, and when I want a sandwich I just choose the Pick 2. One thing I really like about them is that if they get your order wrong they are happy to fix and make your dining experience pleasurable...with NO attitude!

Yummy sandwiches but pickles weren't included like usual. Also, not the best location and bathrooms were dirty.

Delicious! We are in Columbia for a conference, and just happened to walk into this renovated…read morebuilding with a bunch of little stores. The deli is near the back. The employees were super nice, and gave great recommendations. They have a daily special as well. I got the turkey pesto sandwich, and he recommended adding balsamic vinaigrette. I'm glad he did! It was delicious! It was grilled like a panini, but the lettuce was still crisp! Not sure how they did that but it was very good! I also got a side of pasta salad and the cheese and noodles also had good flavor. If I lived closer I would come more often! If you are in the area it is worth the stop!

Seven of our lunch group went here today. It was about 11:20 or so and they took our orders…read moreindividually and were very quick about it. We were fortunate to get two tables together in the hallway. I can see where it can get crowded over lunch time as the line continually was growing with people getting their food and taking a seat in the hallway. They have quite a few of tables with four chairs/table. Most of us ordered the Italian Subs with chips or potato salad as a side. Service was great. Speed was fantastic. I think all seven of us had our food brought out to us within about 7 minutes or so. Several of us thought that the Subs weren't heated as much as they could be. One complaint was that his pickle was limp. The top of the bun was warm but the cheese and meats on the inside were not warm at all (or the bottom of the bun). The potato salad was very good. They have soft drinks via the machine with ice and also Tea. The ingredients were fresh and everything good. I think seating could be a problem on some days and we wished the sandwiches were toasted more than what they were. On a scale of 10 we would rate it as a 7.3 on the ROMEO scale...Yelp scale we'll give it a 4.0

I came inside and they immediately greeted me, they were so sweet, they told me recommendations and…read moreeverything! The food was so good. 10/10 recommend

Best sandwich in Columbia Metro award?…read more I mean yall. What? I be the MOST dramatic on these reviews sometimes bc lol they just read more fun. I'm. Dead. Ass. If yall don't get down to this bad boy and order you the "Chicken Charleston" during our lord and saviors pride month?! HOMOPHOBIA! I didn't know what to order (they literally have the LARGEST menu) and the fabulous front of house baddie said she loved The Charleston so.. I said you know what? LAYGO. 10/10 This was the best dang sandwich I've had in months. It's basically a chicken Philly but they put they whole foot, knee, thigh, and hootenanny into making that bad boy. AND ITS ACROSS FROM THE HOSPITAL SO I CAN JUST MOSEY ON OVER ANY TIME IM IN THIS CENTRALIZED LOCAYSH?! swear SC just wants me to stay fat and sassy atp. Only thing I disliked was the black olives in the pasta salad, but that's a personal preference situation. (Yall can have mine if you wanna meet up for lunch, tuh!) They also have kids eat free nights too! Clearly I don't have any children (kind of difficult to given the whole.. well, it's pride month yfm? Hahaha) but bring the whole fam. Clean, welcoming, good service and decently quick. Thanks everyone! Fr, this rocked.
