    I love love love two beards! The sandwiches are always fantastic and service is always friendly. While parking down town is a head ache, I try to come here for a bite on a regular basis. With salad or vegan options, I think anyone can find something thy like here. The sandwich sizes are very large and I think the pricing is fair for the sizes. If you don't know what you want, you can always ask the people working and they will give you a recommendation. I've done that twice now. I have never dined in at two beards, but the space seems clean. It's just a bit loud and echoey when there's a lot of people inside.

    This place isn't by our typical sandwich shop. It's waaaaay better. The offerings range from traditional to creative. There are so many choices it may take some time to make a decision. But anything you order will be amazing. The owner and staff are some of the nicest people in west Michigan.

    What a sandwich...wowza!!!! Delicious! So many options to choose from...maybe even study up on the menu so you don't get overwhelmed. Friendly and efficient service - great little sandwich joint

    2025 Pros: new point system tied to phone# Cons: sandwiches have increased $4.50 (about $17/ea) and quality/quantity has decreased We visited and ordered 3 sandwiches. Three sandwiches (no sides or drinks) will set you back $55. Even taking into consideration rising costs, this is a bit too much for me. Also, it was really disappointing bc it seems as though the amount of meat/filling has notably decreased. It's such a cool business and I don't like to report negatives -but it was already a bit pricey so we didn't visit often -now, sadly, we probably won't return. If you look at my old vs new pics, you can see the difference in the sizes of the sandwiches as well as the prices these past 6 months.

    Sandwiches were just ok. They didn't taste as fresh as expected and had very little meat on them. Comparing local deli places I would recommend Schnitz Deli. The service was nice and standard. Good amount of tables inside.

    Let me tell you how I'm a sandwich connoisseur and I've been LONG overdue to try this place out. DO NOT make the mistake I did and wait too long. I would sit here and write the longest most raving review of my life but I don't want to be more ridiculous than I already am. For all my sandwich lovers who get it, get here NOW! These sandwiches are banging. Soup was delish. Service & suggestions were on point. They have a super great drink & chip selection as well. The menu is large with cold & hot varieties available and you can make modifications as well.

    5+STARS Two Beards is Amazing ‼Every time we get food there we find a new favorite. There's so many different options. You've gotta see the menu, it's got over 90 different sandwiches, a ton of salads, unbelievable soups, drinks and desserts to complete the meal. The super cool staff is helpful with suggestions and popular picks. One that never fails is the Fred Sanford. It's packed with a generous portion of chicken and yumminess. We had the Conan O'Brien and the Chuck Norris, Reuben stew, white bean chicken chili. Rice krispie treats and a huge chocolate chip. Sounds like a lot? Yup it was! We had enough for dinner and lunch tomorrow. Two Beards Deli has been a family favorite for years.

    I came here to order takeout on a Saturday around lunchtime, and it was pretty busy. I think I waited at least 20 minutes but it was worth it! There is a fair amount of tables for dining in. I'm almost a bit too overwhelmed by how many sandwich options they have; there were multiple good options, but I found myself wanting to make substitutions/additions to most of the options. I ordered the #59 chicken salad but asked for sourdough bread instead of white/wheat, and I added romaine lettuce. I loved everything else that was on the chicken salad sandwich, and it was a bit "non traditional" from how I know chicken salad, but I actually really preferred it this way. My friend got the #57 egg salad which had a nice dill flavor to it but no overpowering flavors or smells. The sandwiches were packed with a lot of salad in each one! I'm glad I got the sourdough bread for more stability in the sandwich. I'd like to try a turkey or roast beef sandwich next time, and maybe one of the soups!

    Wow! This is the "go-to" in Grand Rapids for a sandwich. This was the worst sandwich I've ever had. The store was empty. Employees were chillin... This is the sandwich I got on a slow night. I had one piece of shriveled lettuce, microwaved bacon,, ingredients not distrubuted across the sandwich. It screams lazy.

    The food is SOOOOO good. Lots of options for vegans, meat eaters, and gluten free folk. My son is sensitive to gluten, so we get him GF when we eat out. He does not have celiac disease so he is ok with minor cross contamination. I am not sure how it would fare for a celiac. The service here is impeccable. They're ok with you adding stuff to any sandwich as you like. Ambiance is casual. I love this place.

    Great sandwiches every time. It's way to hard to pick a favorite. Only way to improve would be more parking nearby.

    I saw Jayson D's review of this place and it looked so good that I went the very same day. I love a…read moregood deli, so I'm happy I got the inspiration to stop in. When I walked in, the place was packed. It's a small space, and it was bustling around 1 pm. I was noticed by a kind employee who let me sit at a cozy booth. The menu is huge and includes tons of sandwiches, burgers, wraps, and salads. It was tough to choose but I went with the Irish reuben (grilled pastrami, corned beef, bacon, sauerkraut, swiss cheese, thousand island on marble rye). Sandwiches come with chips, or you can upgrade to fries (regular, sweet potato, or Southwestern dipping fries) - I went with the Southwestern dipping fries, which are seasoned potato wedges. My food came out quickly and I was amazed at the large portions. It was a full basket of fries and a sandwich that would equal two full sandwiches elsewhere. The sandwich was super hot and delicious and packed with meat. I think it's one of the tastiest reubens I've had in awhile. The fries were good, but I think I prefer regular fries. Glad I got to try them, though. They have a daily special where a specific item is discounted, which makes it an affordable option for lunch. I was there on a Tuesday so the special was a spicy fried chicken sandwich or wrap for $12 served with chips or fries. That's a great deal! I will definitely be back for one of their specials. The employees I interacted with were all very friendly and kind and working really hard. I always appreciate good customer service and I found that here. Finally, they serve beer and wine, so if you want a drink with lunch, that is an option as well. The only downside is the small dining area, so I wouldn't say it's great for large groups, and they are only open Monday through Friday for lunch. Luckily I have a flexible schedule, so I'll be back for lunch again soon!

Spacious parking outside. I tried their hot pastrami sammy. The pastrami was sliced against the grain to make it easy to bite, and it tasted perfectly pastrami-y--that signature smoky briny taste, but it wasn't too salty. The portion was enormous! Half an O'brien's sammy would have been the full order anywhere else. There's even a little buddy-sized sink and a tiny toilet in the men's bathroom! Popular with locals and it's easy to see why.

They had a large selection of other cuts of meat, chicken, and packaged items like crackers, sauces, dips, gifts, and more. I'm definitely coming back to Grand Butchers the next time I need a more special cut of meat. Love the large parking lot and I was in and out in no time.

    You know Rico's is doing something right when they boast a perfect 5 star rating!…read more Rico, Jessica and Lupe were very gracious when I called in my order at 1:59pm when they were due to close from 2-5pm. They made me a delicious panini grilled cheese and veggie sandwich that was a perfect compliment to the recommended chili. I added onions and cheese to my chili and it was phenomenal! Flavorful and the exact right amount of spice. The whole mom 'n pop shop had fun add-ons that could be purchased like candy cigarettes, local pops and delicious sounding pints of ice-cream. I'm happy I found this little gem. Maybe next time I should test their pizza. Sold by the slice during the day for 3-4 bucks a slice. Definitely recommend the paninis and chili. Good deal for $13 and much tastier and more food than Panera bread's U pick 2. This place deserves all the business! Friendly and affordable. Support local, your stomach will thank you.
