We work right around the corner and get this often. Love the Mario. The names of the sandwiches are so fun and the quality of meats are stellar. This is Forsure the best deli in town. read more

Staffs were friendly and welcoming. Came here with some friends and dined in. Clean environment. Had a great atmosphere and vibe dining in. Whole bread is around $12 and half is $10. Definitely a better value getting the whole bread. I tried the ZZ Top and Van Dyke. Both were delicious. Sandwiches were full of flavors. Tons of options on their menu. I'll definitely come back if I'm in the area again to try out other sandwiches here!! read more

Some of the best sandwiches I've ever had! Me and my girlfriend were walking past today walking downtown GR and were intrigued by the amazing smell coming from inside the restaurant! As soon as you enter you are visually pleased by references to pop culture and a nerdy atmosphere! As we went up to the counter the service was fast, nice, and very understanding of what I wanted and made my order to percec read more

Friendly staff. Courteous and professional. Food was amazing and portion sizes were excellent. So delicious. Space is a tad small and so it can get noisy, just prepare for that. Additionally, especially at lunch, this place is very popular, so be prepared for a wait or order ahead of time. Highly recommend giving them a try. read more

I've only been here twice, while visiting my sister from out of town, but both times were amazing. I am pretty picky when it comes to sandwiches but these guys know how to do it right. There is so much flavor in every bite and the menu offers so much variety. You can tell they only use high quality ingredients. You might wait a bit for your food, but they are always busy, and it's definitely worth the wait. read more

Not the cleanest - not the fastest - but definitely really great! Loved the over the top selection of sandwiches to choose from. Settled on something kind of unique! The Poseidon! Definitely recommend this unique take on a traditional. read more

Two Beards Deli - #85 - Delis Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

Traveling south from Traverse City, we stopped to grab lunch downtown GR. We were not disappointed when we found and ate at Two Beards Deli. We each ordered a different sandwich; The King Tut, The ZZ Top, and the Anchor. All were full of flavor & large portioned. The wait was not long and they brought it to us when it was ready. Really good choice for lunch. read more

Vegan Monkfruit bbq sandwich was a-maz-ing! High recommend! Service was fast, friendly, and answered many questions! Loved the gnomes in the restaurant. read more

Doesn't look like much but the sandwiches are good and those a ton of selections to choose from. They have gluten free options and they try their best to accommodate serious allergies. I've had them twice and haven't been sick from cross contamination. Reasonably priced. read more

My go to lunch spot in downtown GR when I'm in town. Never disappoints! Home made soups and outstanding sandwich creations.

Hands down the best sandwiches in Grand Rapids! Order online to skip having to find a parking spot.

This place is amazing! We went while in town based off a friends' recommendation and it did not disappoint! I loved that i was able to get my sandwich in a wrap as I'm not a big sandwich person. I ordered the George Clooney and my husband ordered the George Carlin and both were delicious!! I highly recommend going early (around 11am) as it does get really busy at lunchtime, especially during the week. If we're ever back in Grand Rapids we will be sure to stop by again! read more

Great sandwiches served by a friendly staff. Love how the sandwiches are named after famous people.

You can't beat their selection of sandwiches, always fresh and tasty, quick service, and fair prices for being a downtown restaurant. A great stop for lunch or a walking dinner. read more

I really enjoy coming here when I'm in town and appreciate the array of vegan and non vegan options which makes it a good compromise for groups of varying preferences. The Levar Burton never disappoints. Great spot to come for a bite alone, with family or to catch up with a friend. Also queer friendly per the gender neutral bathrooms, very rad. read more

Great deli for meat lovers, vegetarians, and vegans to dine at! They have creative names to every sandwich, unique drinks to choose from, and the inside has a fun vibe to it. Also, gender friendly bathrooms. Will always recommend to anyone who lives in the area for good vegetarian/vegan options. read more

This place is definitely a hole in the wall. Very easy to miss walking down the street, but you should NOT miss this place!! Delicious sandwiches and soups. Plenty of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options. Absolutely delicious and made so fresh!! I was looking for a quick lunch during work, and chose to order from here.

Definitely will be returning here, and definitely recommend!! read more

Two Beards Deli - a half eaten sandwich - Delis Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

Awesome sandwiches and vibe. Highly recommend and now am just typing to meet the character requirements.

Their menu inevitably induces decision paralysis for me, but it's a great selection. Sandwiches were ready right on time for pickup, ingredients are fresh, and if you don't finish them, they're still great in the toaster oven the next day. read more

The best sandwich shop in Grand Rapids, no contest. The online ordering function is really helpful. Extensive menu with everything from meat-sweats-inducing fare to multiple vegetarian and vegan options, really great for group orders because there is something for everyone. I adore the Luigi and the Riker, but you pretty much cannot miss any way you choose. Love the soups too! read more

Their sandwiches are small for the price but holy crap that's a lot of meat, it was very delicious and I don't regret buying. But I wish it was cheaper. If it was then I would eat here more frequently. Very friendly staff. read more

We left Chicago by car heading up to Canada, through Michigan. Three hours up the road, we pull into Grand Rapids (all eight of us) looking for a place to freshen up and have lunch. Well, Two Beards sandwich shop popped up with a staggering 150 variations (or more) of sandwiches. Now, who could pass up a place that can offer that? Each sandwich had the name of a celebrity or theme. I chose The Anchor, which was stacked with turkey, white cheddar cheese, bacon, parmigiano cheese and a herb mayo dressing done panini style. It was very good. My wife had a George Clooney, that had roasted chicken, bacon, red onion, Austrian Swiss cheese, cheddar cheese, tomato and Romain lettuce; she really enjoyed her sandwich. The other six people we were traveling with chose a variety of meats with combinations that were endless. One of the best things about "Hitting The Road" are finding little gems like Two Beards in Grand Rapids, MI that just suprise the hell out of you. read more

Flippin fantastic. Really one of the best sandwiches ever. Their extensive menu covers every hankering you could possibly have. We ordered the Freddie Mercury & the Zeus. Both came out fast and warm. The Freddie, dripping in chipolte sauce was so good but we both preferred the Zeus with it's sage sausage and feta cheese. We ordered both sandwiches full size and I was glad because I didn't think either of them were over sized and for it's higher end price point, you don't really want to miss out on half a sandwich to save a couple bucks. Such goodness my taste buds are still thanking me. ps 1000 bonus points for all the gnome love read more

So many great vegan and vegetarian sandwiches! Busy for lunch, but it's worth it! Gotta try them all!

As a vegan, I am always on the lookout for vegan restaurants and restaurants with vegan options when i travel and I was pleasantly surprised that I came across this restaurant. When I walked into this unique deli shop I was immediately greeted by the cashier & informed him I was vegan and he indicated they have tons of vegan options and proceeded to suggest the vegan special which was "The Joseph Gribble." It has Smokey garlic greens, vegan bacon, red onions, broccoli, watercress, sriracha, veganaise, grilled on 9 grain wheat bread. This is the best vegan sandwich that I have EVER tasted. It came out hot, fresh and bursting with flavor which had my taste buds SINGING! I really hope that this will become a regular item on the vegan menu because it's way too good not to be. I highly recommend for vegans . read more

I was in town for a conference and went here on a recommendation. It was so good that we went back the next day for lunch again with a good number of our conference mates. The selection of sandwiches here would allow you to eat here every day for a week and not feel like you were repeating. This was top notch! read more

The shaft reminds me of something from my childhood, but i cant put a pin in it. Regardless, two beards is wonderful

Absolutely delish. My bf is vegetarian and I eat meat and this was the most delicious place for both options. Several options!!! And super cute on the inside. The guy who cashed us out was amazing and nice and gave us lots of sauce! Also the sandwiches are named after cool celebrities. Definitely an Instagram spot to take pictures in. Also several cold and warm sandwich options. WOOO! read more

Their sandwiches are soooo good. Quality ingredients and they are huge! All the sandwiches are named after celebrities with facial hair (so that's fun) but the food is really good and they have so many options! The service team is friendly and usually cracking jokes and keeping things light. It's clean and fun. Not really a date night spot, but perfect for a breakfast sandwich after a night out. read more

After a visit to the Frederik Meijer Gardens, my very hungry German guest and I stopped for lunch at Two Beards. The sandwiches were fantastic. While my friend was enjoying the "Salvador Dali," a very loaded and melty grilled cheese sandwich, I had the "Bluto:" shrimp salad with red onions, roasted red peppers, and Muenster cheese. I am not lying when I say that I enjoyed every last morsel and that if I lived closer, I would eat that same sandwich several days a week. (Sadly, I live two hours away.) We arrived at peak lunch hour on a Saturday, around 12:15, finding two people ahead of us in line. It took about ten minutes for our food to be delivered to our table, and in the interim, the place filled up. I'd say get there early if you're as hungry as we were! It gets very noisy in there (high ceilings, little in the way of decor), but the food makes it worthwhile. There is a huge selection with something to please everyone, including my vegetarian friend. Highly recommended! read more

The sandwiches were terrific! So many delicious options. We will be back to try something new.

I am writing this review from a Take-Away/Take-Out POV only because the times I have had Two Beards have been take out, and I must say that I can't imagine the food being any better in person because these sandwiches are TOP TIER, even as take-away! Every flavor combination I have had, of all the options that are offered- it is ALL so delicious!! Though their online portal for ordering takeout is down, it is not hard to call and place an order. Every time I have, despite reading how busy it gets here, I have always been able to get my food in good time (within a half hour!). I recently tried the Hayao Miyazaki wrap, and I must say, the flavor combinations were absolutely delightful. The curried tofu, the delicious and unique veggie accoutrements, and veganaise had me drooling!! I couldn't believe it was VEGAN! The menu offered a plethora of options, each more unique and delicious than the last from my experience. From classic favorites to inventive creations, the variety was so impressive. You can't get enough of the naming conventions used, and you can tell they enjoy great music and entertainment! ;) The quality of ingredients shone through, making every bite a burst of satisfaction. This deli is a true gem for sandwich enthusiasts in GR, seeking both creativity and mouthwatering flavors. Highly recommended! read more

This is honestly one of the best sandwich joints I've ever been to. Don't let the pages long menu overwhelm you- it seems like everything on the menu is great so you probably can't go wrong. We stop by every time we are in town and have never been disappointed. Highly recommend! read more

Above average deli with so many options on their menu. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly. They take their time to help first timers and to explain some of the items. Multiple vegan options as well. They usually have great soups as well which is perfect with a sandwich. If you order a half sandwich, it's still the same size, just less meat. The Rick Rubin was very tasty and I loved that the thousand Island came on the side so I could dip it. Give this place a shot! read more

Two Beards Deli - The Rick Rubin. - Delis Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

Ventured here after a Rise game...great spot, plenty of seating. My Rueben was AMAZING!!! Can't wait to return!

The atmosphere was very hip and trendy. Cement type walls, rock music blasting. The service was great for a counter style deli. The young man working the register suggested a sandwich to me and I wish I had taken his suggestion. Instead I got a Reuben. It was good! Not the best I have ever had and I had pretty high hopes. I do think they have so many options on the menu it may be hard to make every sandwich something to write home about. But if I am in the area again I will try another sandwich off the menu of about 53 options. read more

I was really looking forward to my first visit here. Sad to say, it'll be my last. Got the Ewok and The Hulihee. Both sandwiches were lacking in the amount of cheese and Mayo. The Ewok had redskin potatoes which I thought was unique. But they must parboil them and throw them in the sandwich, because it added a watered down likeness to it. That accompanied with the flavorless sausage, burnt "caramelized" onions, and lack of any horseradish flavor at all, despite advertising fresh horseradish and horseradish mayo, and you're left wanting a lot more. The Hulihee sounded promising. Pastrami and corned beef, with smoked cheddar and caramelized onions? Yes please! More like no thanks. All the meat was dead center of the sandwich in a giant clump. The onions had no flavor. And the cheddar wasn't really there either, as mentioned earlier. All in all, this just did nothing for us. I ended up taking all the toppings off the bread because the bread was just meh. read more

THE BEST sandwiches. Friendly staff and plenty of seating. I'll be back over and over.
