Boars Head meats always make a great sandwich and these guys really know how to put together fresh ingredients that compliment the meats. Go at lunch with a friend & you can split a sandwich and each get a side for $12.

An excellent and varied lunch menu. Large selection of sandwich, soup or salad. Everything has a fresh home made quality. Most items are meat based, but they offer some veggie items as well. Chops gets very busy during lunch hour. It's very popular with locals. Service is friendly and efficient. Portions are generous, and a good value.

My co-workers and I go to Chops about once a week. Great atmosphere and the food is good. Yes, it's expensive for "just a sandwich". If you're looking for a $5 sandwich, this is not the place you're looking for. If you're looking for a sandwich made with quality meats and locally baked bread, then this is your place. On... More

Stopped into Chops Deli today after reading reviews. This is a wonderful place to get a delicious sandwich. The chicken salad is to die for. My 4 year old ordered the turkey with cheese kids sandwich and it was a good portion. I especially liked the fact that they make their own lemonade and orange juice which is refreshing. Tomatoes...

I have never had a bad sandwich from Chops. I've even tried several sandwiches that I didn't think I would generally like, and found myself pleasantly surprised. The sandwiches are a bit more expensive than I would usually pay, but they are such great quality and quantity, that they are definitely worth the money.

Stopped here for something as we were tired of restaurant food. Sandwiches were a great mix of fresh ingredients and yummy condiments. Had the spring salad and it was the best salad I ever had. The fruit salad that came with the kids meal was huge with plenty of differnt fruits. I was happy to finish it off. Would stop... More

Yummy sandwiches, hip vibe, and fast service. The only downside is you can't really see the menu until you're at the counter, so I felt I had to hurry and decide with the line behind me. Otherwise, great!

This is one of the top Sandwich restaurants around! Try everything, the menu is created with items you can't normally find in a deli. If it sounds good, it tastes good, and everything here sounds great!
