Great salads and sammys to start your day! They have a delicious egg sandwich with pesto that has a wonderful savory flavor to satisfy your breakfast/brunch cravings! read more

The bronut is the best thing on the menu for sure. We loved it. We'll definitely be coming back

Stopped in and got a half salad and a quesadilla ! Both were delicious and kept me full for hours after. I wish I lived closer. This little place is a gem and also so cute inside ! Just wish they had a dine in option too. It was only take out when I visited. read more

The Eatery - # 4 - Cafes Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

I can't believe I've never written a review for this place! The Eatery has been a favorite spot of mine since I have moved here for the last two years. The sandwiches here taste great and don't make you feel heavy after eating them. There is a decent variety of meat choices, non-meat choices, and fresh breads. The amazing ice coffee keeps me coming back and has low-key made me addicted to it. To comment on the non-food aspects of The Eatery, the staff is amazingly friendly and the decor is hip and modern, but in in a cute aesthetically way rather than a post-modern industrial tone you get with some hipster places. My only complaint is it could have more seating Tips: Parking is supposedly only street and you technically can't use the parking lot nearby (in front of Riva's). Supposedly. Technically. read more

Awesome!! I had the Bronut which is grilled chicken, bacon, & cheese between a sliced glazed doughnut and wow it was pretty amazing!! I also had a nitrous infused Oatmilk cold brew coffee. Whatever that is? ‍ Whatever it was it was really good. I had bookmarked this place when I saw another Yelper review it and I was in the area so it was time to try. Definitely not disappointed and will have to come back and bring wifey. read more

EXCELLENT!! MUST TRY!! I had the No. 8 Buffalo Chicken Wrap and the Lemon Basil Pasta salad as a side and WOW!! Wish it hadn't been so amazing so I'd have taken a picture Super great quality, lovely service, lovely ambiance, all over fantastic (new for me) find! Will be back for sure. Love you guys! Keep up the good work! read more

Great sandwiches and nice staff, but we don't think they make it clear enough that they're TAKEOUT ONLY. Also they don't sell any mass-market soft drinks; only Snapple and weird indie brands of soda and flavored seltzer, none of which we like. read more

The Eatery did not disappoint! We were on our way back to MA and ordered breakfast sandwiches (B.E.C) and coffee to go. The coffee and sandwich were both amazing. Half of their sandwich was plenty of food and filling, but it was so good you had to eat the other half. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We can't wait to go back on our next trip to Connecticut. read more

The Eatery is THE SPOT for fresh and flavorful breakfast and lunch. Menu is fun - something for everyone. Prices are super reasonable. Food is all amazing. FOOD: You know a good lunch spot when the specials change by the seasons. That's fresh food. Their flavor combos are just perfect. Whether you want something healthier like the Savannah Chicken or go all out with the Matador and a Nutella panini, it's gonna taste good. ATMOSPHERE: I've been eating here since before the pandemic and it's a cute spot for a cute lunch with mom or a solo spot during work. Takeout is efficient and quick. They also have catering which I can o ly imagine would impress whoever you're entertaining. Management clearly takes pride in this place...not only by the food and atmosphere, but transparency of information especially during the pandemic. I always appreciate being updated as a customer. read more

Oh sure, a place like this comes along after I move out of town! Met Nicole for breakfast and chose this place since they cater to the gluten free lifestyle she has to live. Breakfast sandwiches are excellent-- went with the buffalo egg and ate every bite. Egg was perfectly cooked and spiciness was on point, not overwhelming. Kinda lose the bacon in it, a bit more would help it to stand out. Tried a can of La Colombe cold brew coffee-- just what I needed after a double (don't shake it!). Great atmosphere, would definitely return! read more

I've been a longtime patron of The Eatery and it's a favorite lunch spot for sandwiches, salads, and soups. They also have a great breakfast sandwich selection (and get the home fries!). The owners and staff are friendly and prompt with orders and I really enjoy using the app. I have just three wishes 1. That soups of the day could be viewed from the app 2. That they were open just sliiiiightly later to make a to-go dinner order possible. 3. Bring back "The GQ" to the specials menu! I also appreciate their commitment to sustainable packaging- it's nice to order take out and not feel like a styrofoam monster (they use cardboard, brown paper, and compostable utensils). Happy to be a customer of their establishment and will keep coming! read more

"The Douglas" My middle name happens to be Douglas. So why not try The Douglas sandwich for my first visit to The Eatery. All natural turkey breast, baby spinach, fresh mozzerella, and a cranberry-jalapeno relish on NY multigrain bread quickly toasted in the panini press. Excellent fresh delicious sandwich. I also had a potato soup. Creamy delicious potato soup with a great smoky flavor from the bacon. The restaurant looks like it belongs somewhere in Fairfield county. Industrial and rustic with a touch of class. Cool Vibe ! I loved it. read more

Amazing amazing food! I am OBSESSED with the sweet potato quesadilla. It's my favorite meal in the entire world, for real. I wish I had a picture of it to share, but trust me it's sooo good. I would honestly get it every day if I could read more

First impressions are very important and the woman at the counter was great!! We were first timers and she explained the menu and was very nice. We got 2 #6 the Vito hot on ciabatta bread, as well as a seafood chowder and a fresh donut! Everything was delicious! Can't wait to come back and try more if their special sandwiches. The sandwiches come with a pickle. Prices are very reasonable- if u get a special sandwich they ate like $8-9. The classic ones are $6. They also offer a 1/2 sandwich with 1/2 soup or salad option which I love! Overall def will be back to try more. My picky boyfriend even plans on coming back on his own on his days off :) read more

We get many of our corporate lunches catered by 'The Eatery' because everyone in our office loves them. We usually order the large signature wraps and sandwiches; every order is always correct and tastes absolutely delicious. Occasionally we have to cater to a visitor with food sensitivities such as gluten free and they love the sandwiches too. read more

YUM!! Was in the area and was craving a good sandwich. Had another place in mind but it was closed. So I said "what the heck! I'll keep driving." And what a lucky chain of events because I found this little place on the corner! The interior is cozy and small but there are a couple tables to sit at. I ordered the #6 sandwich on ciabatta. It was prosciutto and mozzarella with a delicious basil pesto. The bread was absolutely delectable and fresh. The combo of mozzarella with the salty prosciutto was perfect and the basil pesto was the perfect compliment. It was HUGE and hearty and did I mention DELICIOUS?!? I was so happy I stopped here! It was under $7 for a huge sandwich and a bag of chips. What a pleasant surprise! I am glad the other place was closed because now I know where to get an awesome sandwich at an awesome price. Plus: friendly workers! Can you get any better!? I think not! read more

Top tier. I absolutely love everything I have gotten from here. From wraps to salads, ever choice has been amazing. The service is always friendly and fast wether you pick up or get delivery! I would highly recommend you stopping by this little space for a big surprise!! read more

OMG, what a wonderful place for lunch, or anytime. This little spot is such a great place for a quality meal. They have tons of vegetarian options and the food is incredibly fresh. The choices on the menu are always new and interesting and seasonal. Wicked sandwiches, veggie bowls, and they have really great cookies too. Not everything is vegetables though, I had a roast beef sandwich last time I was there and it rocked! I also love that they have Virgil's soda, and the little sides that come with your sandwich are great. I had a buffalo chicken pasta salad that was killer. The prices are a bit high compared to an average deli, but this not your average deli. If you are from the area and haven't gone, you're crazy. The eatery is worth a drive. Not many lunch places can meet them at their level. read more

Really solid place for healthy take out. I had a panini with kale sweet potato goat cheese and onion. It was one of the days specials and it was fantastic. Parking is on street. I drove past the place and ended up parking in the next lot I saw which had a taco place (which also looked good) but walk back and try this place first. read more

The Eatery is one of my favorite places for lunch/early dinner in Wallingford. Parking is a little challenging sometimes as I don't particularly like stepping out of my car onto Route 5, but it's worth the risk. I've had a number of their paninis and wraps and am always left happy with my choice. Everything is made fresh and, if you're there early enough, there have sometimes been dessert choices. I'm not super pleased that their bread and donuts are brought in from New York (this may have changed since my last visit) since there are so many good local places (Chabaso Bread in New Haven, Neil's Donuts right down the street, etc.) and I'd like to see them support more local businesses. They definitely have a presence in the community and their social media is always kept up-to-date, and that really means a lot. They have a beautiful little storefront that will hopefully encourage some of the other shop owners to put in some more effort. I do wish they had later hours, since I don't usually return to Wallingford until 5 or 6pm most days, but I try to run in whenever I can catch them open. read more

The Eatery - Special of the day 7/23/16: maple glazed turkey & smoked gouda on multigrain bread with spinach, tomato, bacon and dijon mustard. - Cafes Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

This little sandwich shop is amazing! We were on a long distance trip and passing through the area. We spotted this place on yelp and it was fantastic. I had the Douglas Fir sandwich which is an elevated version of the after Tgiving sandwich with turkey, bacon, cranberry mayo, and spinach. My wife and son had breakfast sandwiches that were very tasty. My daughter had grilled chicken fingers off the kids menu which were yummy and not fried. If you live if the area of are passing through The Eatery is a great place for a sandwich! read more

Good quality, delicious ingredients made to perfection! I get my breakfast or lunch here probably two times a week at least.

The food was fantastic. I enjoyed my sandwich. It was very flavorful. I really liked the basil lemon pasta salad. The flavor on that was bright light and yummy. I also tried their soups and I have to say the New England clam chowder was probably one of the best New England clam chowder's I've had. read more

On whim, we Yelp'ed our way here while out and about. Happy we did . cute, fun if not eclectic in a good way, VERY friendly staff and good choices for all. My wife had the tuna fish, though a tad salty ( but she is usually salt free) she was very pleased - great pickle! I had the brisket, with caramelized onions grilled panini style - delicious! Again - great pickle! I noticed out meal and others was served vey fast and everyone who was working was happy, pleasant and happy to talk about their product - thats very cool. I had a cup of coffee ( it was cold outside) and it was a good cup! I saw a lot of 1/2 sandwich and soup combo's go by - thats looked good! - so there will be a next time! read more

Amazing food and great service! I love their seasonal specials and am always excited when they release new ones!

Ordered the Bowl 30 salad today and this was the avocado that was on the salad. Almost completely black. Called to have this corrected and wasn't even offered an apology. I was told, "we try not to give rotten avocado, but it's winter". Very poor experience and even sadder response. This was a place I ordered from multiple times a week. Not anymore. read more

This local gem is a go to place for a quick bite, comfort food, or breakfast. Luckily I arrived just before the lunch rush, as this place can become packed pretty quickly. An added bonus, they serve breakfast all day. Since it was lunch time, I opted for a panini that came with a choice of a side. The menu is vast and there is plenty to choose from. I shall definitely return and look forward to trying other menu items. read more

Great, fresh, food however while prices have gone up the size of sandwiches have gotten way smaller. I spent nearly 18 dollars on a sandwich the size of my palm- with no side included. read more

You'd be hard-pressed to find a better option for a quick sandwich just about anywhere...I have no reservations about going to The Eatery when I'm in the area instead of trying something new. I love a good sandwich. The Douglas is my favorite so far... Parking isn't great, but there's a good amount available on Prince Street, which is a one-way road that runs along the cemetery across the street. No crosswalks though, and intermittently busy traffic...so be careful. read more

Needed a quick place to grab lunch from this afternoon and found The Eatery on Yelp. I have never been somewhere with such quick service and such high quality food. The price is a little higher than one may expect for the serving sizes, but the quality of the food makes it worth it for sure! I do wish the sides were a little larger (choice of chips, apple, or pasta salad with each sandwich) since the lemon basil pasta salad I had was SO delicious. They also have breakfast specials available all day, which I look forward to trying next time I stop by in the AM. Also have a large variety of chips and drinks available too. This is definitely a hidden treasure in Wallingford. read more

Great local spot to grab coffee or lunch. The decor is eclectic and service was great. We had sandwiches which were delicious!

Super cool decor in a very small storefront with mostly street parking. Delicious sandwich #10 (I think) the savannah with grilled chicken, goat cheese, baby spinach, and mandarin oranges on toasty ciabatta bread. Deep river chips, brownies, salads, a cooler with Foxon Park soda & other locally made beverages, all displayed rustic gorgeous. About 5 tables for dining in. Super friendly & fast service. I will return for sure! For picky kids they did have grilled cheese, or grilled Nutella available. read more

The Eatery - Savannah yum! - Cafes Near Me - Wallingford, Connecticut

This place is so fresh and so yummy AND AFFORDABLE. My quinoa bowl was $8 where other places would charge $8-$12. I love finding places that make good quinoa bowls. I got the Mesa Bowl. I devoured this bowl! Most places would give you really little portion of avocados, but they gave a good amount. The quinoa is at the bottom with roasted corn and pico de gallo above that and they top it with the eggs. You can get your eggs however you'd like and they drizzle with sriracha (one of my fav sauces). They don't put too much so it's not so spicy. My fave was the roasted corn. IT'S SO GOOD!! There's no meat in this dish so the corn is a nice touch so I can steal get my savory flavors. The place is really cute, you can also dine in. They have breakfast sandwiches, regular sandwiches, soups, and salads. If you live around the area, definitely check it out! read more

Stopped in the this local eatery on our way through New England and couldn't be happier. The staff was full of life and laughter which matched the ambiance of trendy open beams paired with bright pastels and whimsical miniature hot air balloons. But nothing was quite as amazing as the food. My wife was grateful for the assorted selection of gluten free breads and wraps but I dove into the NYC delivered donut wrapped around fresh cooked sausage, eggs, and Vermont sharp cheddar. Paired with fresh hot coffee I felt this meal set my day off perfectly. If you're looking for a place to relax, enjoy a delightful environment, and most of all delve into a phenomenal breakfast or lunch, The Eatery is the place for you. read more
