This is a sweet little sandwich shop. The gentleman at the front counter is always friendly and the food is delicious! My favorite is their chicken salad which is very finely chopped. It’s delicious on their house salad. They have their own dressing which includes dill and is so refreshing. It’s worth a try!
Sometimes the service is a bit slow, but just be patient because the food is worth it and they are working diligently to prepare the order.
Also, they have a freezer full of homemade casseroles. I have bought these for my own family when on a business trip or for occasions when I wanted to provide a meal for others. They even have homemade biscuits!

I’ve been ordering cakes from Lillian’s for 30+ years (they are delicious) but only recently sat down to eat. It was so good so now I’ve been back several times. Highly recommend Lillian’s for lunch.

I really wanted to like this place! And I finally had a weekday off to try it so I bought a few things to make the most of my visit. I spent $50 on the PLT, a brownie bite, a lemon square, and the small take home tettrazini and breakfast casserole. The PLT bread was hard and the provolone was paper thin and jagged, hardly any flavor. Cole slaw was really good though! I thought they had redeemed themselves when I baked the take home dinner that night, it was really good with a little salt and pepper! But the breakfast casserole the next morning was watery and terrible. There are no dates, ingredients or nutritional facts on the take home items so beware.. Pretty sure the casserole was watery because it was freezer burned. It's a shame, I really wanted to support a local business

I love Lillians but was extremely disappointed last week to see how drastically they've cut the portion of chicken salad on the green salad option. It was barely a tablespoonful! So in effect, I paid $17 for a plate of lettuce, a tablespoonful of pasta salad, and a tablespoonful of fruit, and a cup of iced tea. That is outrageous. I would be embarrassed to hand a customer something like that. Realizing food prices have increased, I would prefer that they be honest about their pricing (raise them) and portions than to be treated that way. Sadly, I won't be back, as great as their food is.

I eat at Lillian’s at least 3 times a week. It’s the freshest, most delicious lunch in Columbia. The mother/son combo behind the register and in the kitchen are always so so kind and accommodating. Can’t say enough about the food or team.
Best comfort food in Cola! Salad dressing and pasta salad are my favorite. Great service and food is always fresh! Treat myself to Lillians all the time!

I've not gone to Lillian's sandwich shop once and been disappointed. The food is always fresh, made to order, and fast. Its my go to for something quick and light, but not 100% processed.
Vegetarian options: Their vegetarian options have been a tasty life saver on my meatless weeks.

Tried this place once before it was ok thought I'd give it another shot was disappointed again....pasta salad was dry as a bone and Cole slaw was not fresh, cabbage mix was turning in color...tasted like just vinegar and some cayenne pepper sandwich was mediocre
