Good fresh sandwiches, little pricy Came here because the good burger place was full up. Opted to get a quick sandwich for the road instead. The place is small, and the staff were very much in work mode. Not very friendly but efficient. I ordered the Italian combo and the girlfriend got a custom made. The staff got the sandwiches made quickly and I was back in the car in no time. It's a good sub, but not a 14 dollar sub. There's a decent amount of meat and it was fresh. But the upcharge for the grinder roll and the portion was pricy for what I got. Would've liked to see some more veggies on the roll to bulk it out. Or some spreads to amp the flavor up. It's a good stop for a basic sandwich. But it's not as good as some other places I've been to in that area. It works for what it is read more

We walked in, craving some delicious New York City-style hero sandwiches. After placing our order, we sat down, and the music started blasting. We politely asked the staff member to lower the volume, and she did. Our sandwiches arrived, but as soon as two other customers left, Bad Bunny came on full blast again. We asked her to lower the volume once more, as it felt more like a nightclub than a sandwich shop. Eventually, we decided to leave, said our goodbyes, and went next door to the cigar shop, where we could still hear the loud music thumping through the walls. Honestly, it was pretty obnoxious. As for the sandwiches.... Average read more

Great place to stop by for lunch. Staff and customer service at this location is always great. Menu prices are a tad bit on the higher side for the quantity of the meal but the quality of the food is always outstanding. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for some good sandwiches. read more

Ordered a Ruben and a ham sandwich. 3 bags of chips, 3 drinks came to $30. It feels like a lot to me. The ham sandwich was bread and meat. The Ruben was stingy and the meat had a very chewy texture. This sandwich was a let down. I was just stopping in while in town, so I'll have no occasion to return but three were other things on the menu that looked good. read more

Pretty fast service and great tuna! The ambiance is not the best but I mean it's there. Order was made and ready in 3 mins, nice pricing too. Not chip options tho, no complaints read more

Loved this deli! Got the Monte Cristo panini. Their menu is very large and many choices of sandwiches, salads, and grinders. Don't miss this place! read more

The food is very good, the server for take out does a very good job considering that her first language is not English. I don't know how she does it. They have a lot of variety on the menu but I'm in love with their Panninis! read more

Very disappointed in them. Great sandwiches, however if you post you close @ 3:00 don't close & lock your doors before 3:00. The times you have posted. read more

The Whole Deli Five is a very popular lunch spot in the Glastonbury area. I visited after the lunch rush (after 2pm) and it was completely empty. The downside was they ran out of grinders, which was quite frustrating. The pricing didn't make much sense, it's $.75 cents extra to make the sandwich on a grinder instead of toast bread, which is of course much larger. The sandwich base price is about $6.50 - $8 depending on the type of sandwich you order (with no drinks or chips). The basic toast bread sandwich didn't feel worth it relative to other delis/sandwich spots where you can get at least a 10 inch sub/grinder for that price point. That was my main issue with the whole experience at Whole Deli Five. If it's not on a grinder, you're basically getting a worse deal than the majority of other places. Aside from that, the experience was quite positive. There is a private parking lot, decent seating, and fairly quick service. The ingredients all tasted fresh too. I might try them out one more time to give the grinder a try, but wouldn't return for their basic sandwich. The portion is just too small for the price point. read more

Around 10:30 on a Saturday, lots of individuals were streaming in for takeaway food. No one was sitting in the restaurant. All of us ordered egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches with various meat options: turkey, sausage, bacon. With the added meat, two sandwiches was just over $9 (including tip). The menu board mentions bagels, but apparently they don't have bagels. Hard roll is a classic way to go in that case. Pretty standard breakfast sandwich in the end, but it really hit the spot. read more

I had an excellent sandwich here, and would recommend it, but the woman at the counter was about as unfriendly as they come. Had her earbuds in was on a call and couldn't be bothered to answer any of my questions. Seemed very rude. read more

I didn't have high expectations for a deli all the way up in northern CT but the bacon egg and cheese sandwich was done well. People are friendly and I will return for lunch. read more

Everything we have gotten from here has been so delicious!! The sandwiches are always full of delicious, fresh ingredients. It might take a little longer as they make each one individually - slicing the meat, etc. So good :p read more

Just had a godfather panini. ... absolutely the best I have had in a long long time Perfect Check it out you can't go wrong at the whole deli read more

I am ashamed to say that for years before I discovered this place, I had been eating at the Half Deli. For the longest time, I felt like my dining experience was only 50% of what it could be. Then Wholey Moly, everything changed when I set foot in this fine establishment! This place has the vibes of a nice Whole in the wall restaurant, with some of the nicest people I've ever met in the 29 years I've been on this earth. Sure, anybody can make a sandwich with salami, provolone cheese, and hold the tomatoes. But these people make them with a Whole lot of love. Can't wait to go back there ASAP... I want these guys to cater my wedding and funeral some day. read more

This place is fantastic! All of their grinders and sandwiches are made to order and they use fresh, high quality ingredients. The food is just delicious! I highly recommend this spot for lunch as their service is very polite and quick! read more

Whole Deli - Philly Cheesesteak, so good! Made any way you want, I got American cheese instead of Swiss. - Delis Near Me - Glastonbury, Connecticut

This place is without a doubt my favorite sandwich place! I just wish I lived closer to eat here more frequently. Keep up the great work making those awesome sandwiches! read more

I've been here four times for lunch. Great sandwiches all freshly made. It's one heck of a lot easier to get into and out of here than other sandwich places. Prices seem reasonable to me for the quality of food. They have a huge menu board with all sorts of selections which often have various sauces. Today my sandwich had apple and avocado. I will continue to stop here for lunch. Fast, convenient and delicious. read more

We had our first experience at Whole Deli tonight - we've been waiting for a good sandwich place to come to town - and we were not disappointed! Service: Fast, friendly Atmosphere: Clean, open, casual, with a coffee-house feel. Menu: Diverse with both the classics and some combinations you don't often see. They also offer salads and breakfast sandwiches & coffee in the mornings. They also have a wide selection of Deep River chips. Now if they'd just start serving soup! Sandwiches: Delicious! We had a "Rocky Hill" - turkey, lettuce, tomato, avocado and Russian Dressing on white bread - it was fresh, packed full of meat, just enough sauce and the bread was fluffy and not overpowering. We also had a Philly Cheese Steak - cheese, onion, roasted pepper, roasted garlic, mayo and steak - it was very well seasoned, the cook on both the steak and veggies were perfect and the bread was very soft and tender. It wasn't greasy either, which was great. Overall we enjoyed ourselves, and will likely return again often - especially to give breakfast a try! read more

Whole Deli makes a meannn sandwich! It doesn't look like much from the outside, but this family run business makes a delicious sandwich- my go to spot for lunch. I love their Italian sandwich- it is PACKED with Italian meats on a hard roll, and they actually out balsamic on it, which, in my humble opinion, is the only way! They're extremely friendly and service is fast. They're open during quarantine so treat yourself to a lunch out and grab a big juicy sandwich! read more

I was in the area and needed a quick place to grab lunch...I found on yelp and decided to try it out. Was very pleased! I had a meatball grinder and got my hubby a chicken cutlet grinder and both were very delicious! Everything was fresh and service was quick which was perfect for my busy schedule. Will definitely be back! read more

These ladies are so sweet and accommodating. We filled our bellies here before going climbing at Central Climb. You should do the same.

The sandwich was good but the staff was a little off-putting - not very friendly or helpful. I got one of their specials with smoked turkey, cheese, avocado, apple, and honey mustard, and the combo was solid. A little expensive for a small sandwich on a hard roll (~$10). read more

I'd go with a 4.5 since the staff wasn't that welcoming or friendly. BUT the Italian panini was delicious! We were in town for business - I'll definitely go back next time I'm in the area. read more

Nice clean spot using Boar's Head products, which is always a plus. I got a steak and cheese. It was tasty, but kind of skimpy on the meat. I wanted and expected more. I would go back, but pass on this option and go with a Deli sandwich. Same owner as the one in Rocky Hill Btw. read more

I had passed by this place a few times since its opening on my way to the nail salon. While in Glastonbury last week I decided to stop and boy am I glad I did. In the world of "sandwich shoppes" this one stands out for being super fresh and a great value. The extensive menu, seriously there are 30 some odd sandwich choices, and friendly staff make it definitely a place I'll visit again. Not knowing exactly what I wanted I went with the "Marilyn Monroe" because well, blondes do have more fun! The sandwich was sliced chicken breast, sliced mozzarella and pepperoni on a grinder roll. Let me tell you the meat was literally fresh sliced in front of you along with the other ingredients. The sandwich was full of flavor with the few ingredients and the meat to roll ratio was excellent. For $9 you can't beat a sandwich and a drink. Will definitely be coming back to this one! read more

Cute place. Cashier was polite, nice selection of drinks and chips, classical background music is a nice touch. Chicken salad could use a little more mayonnaise which is why it's a 4, but all around nice place. read more

I have been looking for a great local deli and found Whole Deli to check all the boxes. My roast beef was just as I imagined. It was simply great and everything was fresh and tasty. We are only sorry we have not been in sooner and will be back regularly. Thank you for the chance to offer this review! read more

This place is *so* good. My office is located nearby, so I make a point of stopping in here at least once every other week. Recently I have been getting their special of the day (sandwich + can of soda + sm. bag chips for ~$9) which is a great deal and a great way to try something new on the menu every time you visit. When not indulging in a daily special, my go-to menu items are... Buffalo Chicken Wrap - spicy chicken, buffalo sauce, ranch, cheddar....red onions...salivating...salivating...where was I? Oh, lettuce and tomato, too! Get this sandwich on a wheat wrap - my favorite when in the mood for something *very* spicy. I like a lot of heat, and this sandwich doesn't hold back! Capicola & Smoked Turkey - smoky, salty, delicious. Hard to go wrong with lean smoky turkey and fatty, salty, and spicy capicola. Liverwurst - YES. LIVERWURST. You read that correctly. I may be a 28 year old gal, but my food preferences sometimes fall on the "92-year-old grandfather" end of the spectrum. It's hard to find a place that will make you a good liverwurst sandwich! Not only do they offer this classic (old man) sandwich - they make a mean one to boot! Get this one on the wheat wrap topped with some lettuce, cheese, and onion (sexy, eh?). read more

Great place, I go here multiple times a week, owners are super nice and make the sandwich perfect every single time.

I mean it was okay. I give it two point five stars if I could but the employees made it a three. I got the roast beef sandwich and a Snapple, it came to about $10.50. There is a good amount of roast beef on the sandwich but the horseradish sauce was super watery and the bread was underwhelming, crumbly and dry. I would think maybe they would use an Italian type bread maybe? It filled the hole but it was underwhelming. read more

You apparently can only order what they tell you at this deli. Unlike a real deli you can get whatever is on the menu. I guess they don't appreciate there customers. I drove 20m just to go here to be turned away. I do not recommend read more

One of the best places in town for sandwiches. Really fresh ingredients, everything is sliced to order in front of you. The sandwich combinations on the menu are really tasty, but they're also happy to make a custom sandwich for you. Highly recommend this place. read more

Breakfast sandwich...sold! Perfectly fried egg with just a tiny crisp with generous amount of ham, cheese on a roll that holds up. Quick and at a good price. Excellent selection of meats, cheeses, condiments, breads and veg for sandwiches. Boarshead meats and cheeses. Only problem with the sandwich I tried was I got mustard. I have a mild allergy to mustard seeds. Was in a hurry, just to wipe it off. Nice atmosphere. A little larger and nicer than the otherlocations. read more

The food is always consistently amazing. I've tried several things on the menu and have yet to be disappointed. They offer hot and cold sandwiches and always get the order out so quickly! read more

Since moving in a few months ago its quickly become my favorite sandwich spot in town. Service is quick and courteous. The restaurant feels warm and clean and casual. Sandwiches come quickly and are delicious. The Pastrami Lover's and Steak and Cheese are two of my favorites, but there are plenty more worth your money and time. read more
