Sandwiches were delicious. A couple of us ordered custom sandwiches and they were just what was ordered. Place is not cheap but quality and size of sandwiches made the price acceptable.

Super expensive, but also the best sandwich I may have ever had. The shop is adorable and has some cute collectable items. The seating area is nice and comfortable. The server was not very friendly, but not unpleasant. It took a very reasonable amount of time.

It was fine. Sandwiches were pretty good but $50 for two sandwiches and a bag of chips?

The crab cake sandwich was super. My girlfriend only ate half her teriyaki chicken sandwich though. She said it tasted like boiled chicken

To those responsible for this nightmare of a meal: do yourselves a favor and have some damn dignity. This is beyond disgraceful. Worst sandwich I’ve ever had. Period. This ruined my entire day. This place charges you an absurd price, throws together the worst sandwich possible, then tells you to get out. You should be ashamed of yourselves for doing this to your community.

So - first off, no need to ask for extra cheese on the pizza, it comes that way - perfect. Second, all the food, hot or cold is amazing. A sandwich as exciting as the drive out here. And to finish it off, a selection of candies for dessert, both comprehensive and delicious.

I often come out to Point Reyes on a quiet weekday just to get some food here.

Got a decent sandwich to go here.

Rest stop deli quality at San Francisco restaurant price. Not sure how fresh the sandwich ingredients were; flavor wise, my Cubano was overpowered by the mayonnaise and mustard, while the meats were just okay. Its redeeming grace: it was open at a time when every other restaurant in town is not (mid afternoon between 3 and 5 pm).

Very nice people and it’s a cool little store. They have ice cream, sandwiches, pizza, etc… I got the crab cake sandwich and it was so delicious. My sister got the shrimp and avocado sandwich and liked it so much she got a second one. Although it was pretty expensive… almost $20 for one sandwich.

$19 for their Reyes sandwich. Veggies, bread and meat tasted fresh but I expected more meat for $19 (plus tip). Overall a decent sandwich. I went with a friend, they wanted a beer but decided against it because the only alcohol they sell is Modelo. The rest of the store has an odd selection of snacks and other goods like hats and trinkets, semi-dingy atmosphere with loud Hispanic music playing. No restrooms which doesn't make sense.

$54 bucks for 2 sandwiches 2 sodas and a bag of chips later being told I cannot use a restroom from the sassy male cashier seemed a bit personal.
As for the atmosphere loud Mexican ranchero music filled the space its also a sideline boutique of random purses and trinket jewelry. I chose to wait outside as my food was prepared. Sandwiches were average. This was my second time at this deli and both times I was turned off as a customer and their nothing special overpriced sandwiches and sassy rushed service. Not sure who they think they're focus of customers are? A realignment this place is needed. It seems out of touch.

Awful food, service, and price. Paid $25 for a small turkey/cran sandwich and chips! The cashier couldn’t have been more indifferent and rude. Asked for a modification to the sandwich (“can you only put cranberry sauce on half of the sandwich?”) to which he just shook his head and said “no”. In disbelief, I asked “can I get the cranberry on the side”. He couldn’t have looked more annoyed, paused, and gave in.

The sandwich was tasteless and small.

Do yourself a favor and bypass this place. I’ve got to believe the only reason they are still in business is they prey upon the tourists who drive through Point Reyes Station, and know they don’t have to cater to the locals with decent service, food and prices.
