I ordered the basket expecting the classic "coffee store" chips to sadly see they were just original ruffles. As for the pickle, I expected it to be a spear and I was let down to find out it was two slices. The cookie was alright as well but nothing special. I ordered the pastries and donuts and those were pretty good. I enjoyed the mocha Bismarck donut. The lemon cream cheese pinwheel was pretty good as well but on the drier side. Overall, good for a quick bite. Staff are super nice and friendly.

This thing was stacked with delicious ham and melted Swiss cheese on top of their already delicious breaded pork tenderloin, slather it with mustard and pickles and boy oh boy are your taste buds in for a treat. 10/10 will get again:)!!!! Got their delicious homemade onion rings on the side with some ranch I was in hog heaven (pun intended):)!!!! As always the service was top tier:)!!!!

We did get the large version, but we weren't expecting them to be so big lol. All of the ingredients were really fresh and full of flavor. The bread was perfect, too! Even the sandwich we got for our daughter was delicious; it was simple, but sue "inhaled" it lol. We also got the BbQ chicken chili which had great flavor, but it was more like a chili flavored soup. I dipped my leftover bread in it, so it worked out lol. When we ordered, we tried to do so online, but that was a pain. So, we called in and the customer service was excellent! The guy that took our order was very nice, patient, and informative, which was very appreciated since we had just had issues with the website lol. We ordered for pickup and our food was placed nicely in the bags and nothing was spilling or overflowing onto anything else. Overall, the inside of the restaurant was great, even though we didn't dine in. It looked quite clean and was pretty relaxing. Staff were really nice in person as well. 3*17*25

It was a dark and stormy afternoon…read more... I was wandering around Ames mid-day last week with a lot of time on my hands. At Lunch time, I didn't feel like a sit down waiter restaurant, nor did I want to go into HyVee and choose a pre-wrapped Sammy. So after a little Yelp searching, the West Street Deli came up. West Street Deli is just down the street from my Ames Barber (Troy) and just as close to Mother's Pub. The street is its own little business District, and feels far away from Lincoln Way. I ordered a Cajun Tuna Melt which was unlike any sandwich of this type that I had experienced. It was well prepared and was flavorful in many ways, including a little kick at the end. A beer would have gone well with this, but I stayed with water, while comfortably seated by a window within their dining room. A very pleasant experience and a for sure future visit.

The food, service, and ambiance were all great! Don't sleep on the smoked turkey. Apparently that's like a Texas thing, but Iowa - don't knock it til you try it!

I thought we'd have leftovers. We did not. We crushed everything we ordered, including an Iowa Twinkie to start (highly recommend one of those to start)! It was pretty packed on a Sunday at 1pm but we did get seated super quickly. Highly recommend!

There's plenty of parking, and from the moment I walked in, I felt genuinely welcome. My waitress, who I suspect may have been the owner, greeted me with a smile, took my coffee order right away, and made sure I never needed to ask for a refill. Bonus points for serving it in a pretty cool coffee mug that added a little personality to the experience. The service was fast without feeling rushed, and the food was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what I was hoping for. More than anything, though, it was the hospitality that stood out. It's the kind of place where you're treated like a regular, even if it's your first visit. If you're looking for a welcoming local café with great food, friendly people, and a memorable small-town dining experience, the Whistle Stop Café is well worth making a stop.

Sweet and juicy turkey breast, sliced and piled high with my choice of cheese and fixings. Paired with a bag of chips and a "pop" from the soda fountain, it was a perfect lunch. Show up after 1:00 and you might find a shorter line. Just don't get stuck behind "that guy".

Sadly, we were the only ones in the restaurant -- and it felt like not much has changed since the place opened back in the 50s or 60s. Same booths (I'm pretty sure), and not sure the last time they've been deep cleaned. The bathroom in particular was... rough. There's a really cool old jukebox that adds to the nostalgia -- but unfortunately, it was out of order. Would've been nice to sip on a beer while waiting (the pizza took quite a while), but just a heads-up: they only serve canned pop and bottled water. Now, the good news -- once the pizza finally arrived, it was **fantastic**. Classic brick-oven flavor, perfectly crisp, and loaded with flavor. We ate the whole thing even though we'd planned to save leftovers for my daughter and her roommate! If I lived in Boone, I'd absolutely order from here again -- but next time, it would definitely be takeout.

I have heard a lot about Potbelly Subs from friend and family around the community. I finally had…read morethe opportunity to order there on Saturday. The have a nice menu of sandwiches, not too many choices but also not so many that you feel overwhelmed. I ordered online through their app which was quick and painless. It's nice to have the option of delivery too. They charge for it, but that's to be expected from most places nowadays. My sandwich was the Clubby - which is a lot like it sounds, a Club sandwich with turkey, ham, bacon, cheese and a boatload of toppings. I had them put hot peppers on there and it's much like a Chicago-style hot giardinera. VERY good! They have a bunch of chips, sides and even shakes to chose from. Lots of choices. I will say that the prices for the sandwiches is good, but they really get you with the sides and/or some of the extras you put on the sandwich. If it isn't one of the standard toppings it costs extra. Sides are good, but a little pricy. Everything people have told me about Potbelly Sandwich Shop is true - really tasty subs with lots of choices. I highly recommend it.
