The owner greets every customer as they enter with a hearty welcome! Free popcorn is given to every table. The food was delicious, fresh, and the portions were generous. (Ask about the special - it comes with a drink and cookie!) The bathrooms were clean and well stocked. It's rather small inside but cozy and we didn't have to wait for a table (with 5 in our party). There were several options on the kids' menu and lots of options on the regular menu. The owner went out of his way to speak to us and to make sure the kids were happy and taken care of, even bringing an extra plate of fries for the kids to share. Overall, we had a great experience and would highly recommend it to others. As a bonus, it's an easy walk from the Pinball Museum if you're there for the day. read more

Sending love to WNC as the recovery efforts continue post hurricane Helene. Three Chopt is a downtown Hendersonville sandwich shop that my family and I greatly enjoyed on our most recent visit. It must be a popular spot for the area in general, because we crammed into the last table available, and the waitresses were running around like crazy trying to help everyone. The wife of the husband and wife pairing that own this place was the one who helped us, and she could not be nicer, though just overwhelmed with customers on this particular day. In the kitchen, the husband was cooking up a storm, making sandwiches as fast as he could. The family looks like a melting pot of people from all over, with the central tree in the restaurant bearing arrow signs of their various origins. Cincinnati, St. Croix, and Mexico city are represented. In general, the restaurant has a great feel. I order one of their versions of a reuben, they had a few different takes, this one seems the most like a classic. It was delicious, great decision. Good amount of meat, kraut, tasty dressing, nicely buttered and grilled rye. I opted for the slight upcharge and got fries with my sandwich, they were nicely crisp on the outside and very tasty. Because of how busy they are it was difficult to get a drink refill on this hot day, but I helped myself to one, and that was fine. I have no way of knowing currently the state of affairs at this business, because downtown Hendersonville saw a large amount of flooding. I hope that they escaped great peril, or if they had damage, are able to recover and re-open quickly as the area digs itself out. #WNCStrong read more

We were really pleased with this sandwich shop. We were looking for something different was walked in and felt right at home. You can tell there were a lot of regulars. We have the Chili which was one of the best I had in years and we also had the tuna melt. The menu and different subs and sandwiches looked very creative - we can't wait to go back and try some other items. Service was great. read more

This shop in Hendersonville is the best. I used them for a wedding day lunch and it was great. No soggy sandwiches (even the Rueben's). He even called me the following week to ask how everything was and to thank me for the business. In a world of fast food, this shop goes above and beyond. Go visit! read more

Rosie was so sweet and welcoming. I had the best home made chicken soup and it was served nice and hot on a cold day. I also had the half chicken sandwich and they served it with potato chips. Sandwich was very delicious!!! Excellent lunch cafe in downtown Hendersonville off of Main Street and on Third Avenue. I would definitely go back there again soon. Super friendly staff!!! Casual cafe and very homey! Luv it!!! read more

Three Chopt Sandwich Shoppe - Sandwiches Near Me - Hendersonville, North Carolina

We had visited this establishment before when we visited Hendersonville and really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, we will not be back. After seating ourselves, a server comes over and stares at us, we realize they were taking our drink order. Ofer given them the drink order request, we received an 'incorrect' drink order. No problem we thought, just a mixup and we moved on. A different server came over and asked, are you ready to order. No pleasantries, just are your ready to order. I ordered for us, 1 sandwich to be split for both of us, asked what soups were available and proceeded to order the broccoli and cheese. After a question on what type of chips, our order was complete. Maybe 5 minutes later, a split sandwich came as ordered as well as chips. No soup, no refill and the incorrect drinks. The bill was given at the time of the order being brought out, and that should have been a hint that a server would not be back, that they were finished with us. After we finished the sandwich, I took the bill up to pay. Menu listed our sandwich as 9.59 and each drink at 2.50, total on bill was 14.99. The 'owner' at the register said that will be 23.00. Wow! Now you know why we will not be back. Incorrect order evidently computes to an incorrect price. I was speechless. read more

My partner and I just love the warm friendly down to earth peopy who run this sandwich shop. The owner is acutely aware of the added burden of parking fees in HVL and mentioned that using the parking kiosk nearby will give 1/2 hour free; parking garage 1 hr free. Come in before noon and get a free bowl of fruit. The quiet yet friendly atmosphere is refreshing. The sandwiches taste homemade, fresh ingredients and can be shared. Perfectly cooked fries are tasty and plentiful. read more

OMG this guy should teach Ruben sandwich class! good food, good service, feels like home

Extremely slow service on a Thursday lunch crowd. Only two servers. Three other tables seated after us got their drinks and starters because they had the fast server. I finally got up and got us some menus. Sandwiches were okay-not spectacular. Owner did bring us some small bowls of chopped melon because our service took so long. Doesn't live up to the great reviews by others. read more

Amazing food and even more amazing service! Me and my husband come here all the time and they never fail to make us feel like family when we come in! Their French Dip Sandwich is the best I have EVER had, but you can't go wrong with anything on their menu. A little hole in the wall place that will have you calling yourself a regular in no time! read more

Great food. They even have authentic Cincinnati Chili! More sandwiches to choose from than any place I have been.

This quaint spot is off the beaten path. Great staff and good food. Very caring. Outdoor seating. Unique decor. We had grilled cheese which was epic, chicken minestrone soup and chef salad. Yummy! Distanced seating and clean. Give it a try. read more

Rosy covers the orders and brings popcorn to your table when you sit down. Has a great turkey sandwich, Elizabeth's Mile Marker, turkey, bacon, Swiss, lettuce and tomato with honey mustard on grilled sourdough. My son had their great burger and fries and my wife had the deluxe grilled cheese with bacon and tomato. Locally owned and locally loved! read more

Typical small town sandwich shop. Very cute and quaint inside, and service was excellent. We would definitely return! I had the special turkey sandwich, and my husband had the Turkey and roast beef. Very good!! read more

Not your typical sandwich shop- BETTER! Just off Main street and locals definitely know about it for sure. The Philly Cheesesteak was pretty impressive. Warm , soft ad a perfect vessel to hold the juicy steak, onion, mushrooms and cheese. Wouldn't pass this up if you like a good cheesesteak. The Hamburger was cooked perfectly and not overseasoned. Still juicy inside and the toppings were crisp amd fresh. Gotta love a good messy burger! The bub was warm and toasted nicely. The fries were double coated and so crispy on the outside. Werent heavy on the oil, actually didn't taste the oil which is nice! The place is clean. When we entered we heard a loud and from the back. Welcome to Three Chopt happy to have you. Wow, I mean really? As we left and were paying at the counter, the owner came to introduce himself and personally say thank you for your business. Thats HUGE in my book and even if it was just average, ****it is not average*** I will tell people about it! Please go, support your local business. read more

This place is a hidden gem! It has excellent food, great service and a real Mom & Pop atmosphere. We stumbled upon this place while walking around the cute town of Hendersonville and it was a great find. We all loved our meal and the friendly service!!! read more

Great sandwiches and service and Matt is very friendly. There are many sandwich choices. My favorite is the turkey - my wife likes the BLT and one of the chicken salad sandwiches. We first went there over ten years ago when we were visiting and have been many times since moving to HVL. Check out the mens' restroom - he's an avid Gator and Reds fan. read more

Found this restaurant by chance after bringing our kids to the kid's museum around the corner. We had been craving a great sandwich our whole trip and this place definitely hit the spot. The service was quick and high quality. Perfect casual lunch spot! The hardest part was choosing which sandwich we wanted because they all looked so delicious. Will definitely be returning on future trips to the area! read more

Awesome little place with great food. They're just off Main Street and weren't crowded at all. We're locals and we will be back for sure.

What an exceptional small business! I don't understand any of the negative reviews. I took my mother out to lunch and out server (Dina I think) was great and the owner Matt and his wife both came to talk ... if you come to Hendersonville, eat here at least once. read more

Good lunch spot in Hendersonville located on a side street downtown. Soup, salads and subs are their specialty. You get complimentary popcorn when you sit down for lunch (refills too). Chicken salad sandwiches are a specialty with your choice of three variations. Also three homemade soups each day. The French Onion soup is a top choice. The servers are genuine and caring. A family owned business. read more

This sandwich shop is located just off the main strip in Hendersonville. I went with family for lunch around 1pm on a Friday, and they were busy, which is a great sign. We walked in and grabbed one of the only 4 top tables available. The menu is bigger than expected, and they have a variety of hot and cold sandwiches. The sandwiches don't come with a side though, so you have to order one if you want. I loved how when you sat down, we were given a small bowl of popcorn. That was a pleasant surprise. Our waitress was very sweet and helpful. My sandwich was good, but nothing special. You pay for your meal at the counter in the back. Overall, this is a cute sandwich shop. read more

Stopped over in Hendersonville on our way to a close by weekend rental. After doing a walk through downtown, we decided to eat at Three Chopt. This place is a classic old school luncheonette. We had a Greek salad , the deluxe grilled cheese and the Mile Marker sandwich. All the food was delicious. I recommend this place over some of the more trendy places downtown. We came away full and totally satisfied! read more

I'm gluten free and plant based, couldn't even get a salad with dressing on the side. My husband loved it.

Is this a great place? Not really! Is it a bad place? Not really! It is a very average Mom and Pop sandwich shop that doesn't do anything impressive or bad. The onion soup is sooooo salty it's a mess. The owners are very friendly and accommodating. All the people giving this restaurant five stars really need to get out more or stop reviewing your family members. read more

Finally we're fully vaccinated and can go out! My son and I were looking around downtown Hendersonville. It was getting to be lunchtime so we went to Three Chopt. I hadn't been there in quite a while. The entire place is remodeled. The walls are a soft blue/grey, the tables look new and there's a tree inside. There are a couple of tables outside too. Overall, very nice. My son ordered a bacon cheeseburger and fries. I got a chicken salad sandwich that had raisins, walnuts, and apples in it with some potato chips as well. Rosie, one of the owners, brought our drinks quickly then a small bowl of popcorn. Not all the tables were full but about 3/4 were. The servers kept the drinks full and we're attentive. When our lunch arrived it was delicious! The burger disappeared pretty quickly as did my sandwich. We were full and happy. We didn't get dessert. Go visit Three Chopt when you're in town. You'll love it too! read more

I think this is a little cafe that feels like a diner without the diner decorations or northern breakfast menu. It's in downtown Hendersonville and we parked and walked to it. I liked the turkey bbq salad and they switched the dressing to Italian since I prefer that to the blue cheese that came with it. I heard their apple chicken salad is nice too. Simple yet tasty food and nice service for a healthy lunch! read more

It takes a lot for me to break away from comfortable routines, but by gosh, Three Chopt Sandwich Shoppe has done it. My monthly visits to downtown Hendersonville are synonymous with a sandwich from Mountain Deli. I have heard of Three Chopt, but I thought how crazy is it for another sandwich shop to compete with the Mountain Deli. Well, there's room for more than one sandwich shop in downtown Hendo. First, Three Chopt is spacious, homey and full service. You can sit down and relax. A super friendly waitress greeted us with a smile and thanked us for coming and trying a new restaurant. Complimentary popcorn (sorry, I just can't eat butter flavored anything, but other people may like it) and a comfortable, homey cafe like environment. We got the sandwich special and a kid's grilled cheese. Let me say, the kid's grilled cheese was spot on. Just a simple sandwich, fresh bread, lots of butter and that even toastiness. My daughter gobbled it up. They have these "specials" where the sandwich comes with a cookie or brownie and a drink. This makes for a great value. We got a cookie and a brownie with the other dessert. Fresh fruit and chips and you're set. Food was DELICIOUS. Service was great. What more can you ask for? read more
