Seriously, there are so many choices I almost needed a life coach. Everything is fresh -- you can taste that the lettuce didn't come from a bag. The staff? Friendly, patient, and clearly used to people standing there in awe trying to decide between turkey or Italian for ten minutes straight. And can we talk about how clean this place is? You could eat off the floor -- though please don't, they worked too hard to keep it that spotless. It's trendy in that way that never stops being cool -- kind of like vinyl records, or good manners. Lyle's Hoagies proves that old-school still rules the lunch game.

Now, it is bright and nicely decorated! I was actually surprised when I entered. A large group of us came here after a memorial for a friend. The bar was mostly empty when about 25 of us arrived. The bartenders were happy to see us and did their best to serve us drinks and food. Great service even though it was much busier than expected. I didn't snap any photos of my visit, but I enjoyed a few draft IPAs and we ordered snacks. I got an order of the garlic parm wings and they were great! Super crispy and moist with a great sauce. The side of fries were typical Sysco, but the good kind! Best of all, my bill was cheap. Good food, good service, at a great price. What's not to love? I'm sure I'll be back at some point.

The bar was full, 5 tables all showed up at the same time & yet we were well taken care of throughout. I ordered the Reuben which was borderline perfection. The sauerkraut to meat ratio was a bit much but personally I LOVE sauerkraut so it didn't bother me. I also ordered the mac salad & chips on the side opposed to fries & I'm so glad I did! It hit the spot. The gluten free bun on our other sandwich (caprese) was nicely toasted & pretty good! The kid's spaghetti was a decent portion & the sauce wasn't too acidic. The bacon cheeseburger was juicy & flavorful. The bathroom was clean. All around a pleasure!

Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon to have a quick bite and was pleasantly surprised by the amazing…read moreservice and delicious food. The waitress was hilarious and very sharp. We loved her. I had the Rachel with whole wheat (instead of rye) and it may be one of the best Rachel sandwiches I've ever had. Toasted bread, Swiss cheese, fresh turkey cold cuts, Russian dressing, and coleslaw. I googled it down as soon as I could. The fries were okay, but I'm also not a fan of those frozen bagged fries that have a little flour on the outside for better frying. Freshcut will always win my vote and I recommend CrossRoads considers it. Plus it saves freezer space and only takes seconds to cut them with a machine. With that said, the sweet potato fries were fantastic! In short, we're really glad we gave this place a shot and we will be heading back for dinner soon!

I ordered the Mama Mia and the meat eaters ordered the Bad Burrata. The pizza was pretty oily but that may have just been because of the toppings we chose but otherwise delicious. My husband and his brother are from the city, so very judgmental about upstate pizza and my husband said that this has been the closest to a NYC pizza he's had in the 16 years he's been living here.

We ordered chicken shawarma, chicken gyro, and fried mushrooms to go. The fries could have been in the fryer longer but they were hot, lightly salted with a little pepper. Mushrooms were good and hot. Lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle were crisp, grilled chicken was good. Sauces were a little watery. My partner thought there was some taste of old cooking oil in the fried food. Environmentally the place was very clean, staff was friendly, and their food containers are hard pressed paper shells and the dinner came in a brown paper bag. The meal was OK for the money, and we'll probably eat there again. If I had come from San Fransisco or Miami, I would have been disappointed.
