I’ve heard tons of good things about this place so I had to try it out. Sadly it was not what I had hoped. Chicken dumpling soup was way too salty, almost inedible. I got the hot chicken sandwich and it came wrapped in tin foil then thrown in a plastic bag with a loose pickle. It rendered my sandwich a wet soggy mess and the flavor just wasn’t good. I will definitely give them another chance but my first impression was not a good one.

The chicken salad sandwich is my new favorite and I never thought those words would come out of my mouth.. that I love chicken salad?! Everything is SO fresh and the bread it comes on is amazing. The Parmesan kale soup is equally amazing. It was hot fresh and full of flavor. My new favorite lunch spot. I wish they had a bigger space to be able to sit and eat but I won’t complain too much about that since the food is worth taking to go. I got the special which is a half sandwich (generous size for being a half) and a cup of soup. Total was $10 and every bit worth it. It’s a nice touch that they wrap the soup so it doesn’t leak in the bag.Vegetarian options: They have veggie soups and sandwiches including a veggie pita.Parking: Parking lot is tiny and there are no real parking stalls, it’s basically a free for all (park where you can). This actually deterred me from coming in on a previous occasion. My only option was to block someone in or leave :(

We went for cold sandwiches. A LOT of mayo/sauce and disappointed with the cramped atmosphere on the inside with shelves full of overpriced products.My mom wanted cheddar cheese on her sandwich instead and the worker at the counter said cheddar cheese already came on the sandwich she wanted. (The cold hero). Confused because the only thing I saw that had cheddar was the veggie. But a minor inconvenience, maybe the worker was new or heard her wrong.

Food was excellent. Cheese selection very good. Very cramped store, especially for the employees.They erred on our order. They credited our card and were very nice about it.

Sadly, today will most likely be the last time I choose ECCD.Quality has gone from okay to not okay, over the last few months.When a person is dropping $10.50 for a sandwich and $5/cup of soup, it should not be sloppily put together with the ingredients on one end and bare bread in the other, nor should the soup be cold or just broth.(Had a cold hero. Was sharing with my husband.)So, that was a little irritating. And because it took almost twenty minutes to get said sloppy mess of a hero, we had no time to eat together so I just split the sandwich and we parted ways. I basically had a bread sandwich to go with my cold soup as I didn't think I would or should have to rearrange the toppings so it was an even spread. Lesson learned.I feel even worse for the girls that called in their order ahead of time so they could pick up their lunch and enjoy their break. They requested an 1145 pick up. I left ECCD at 1215 and they had left just ahead of me.I get it, you've gained popularity due to the hype from various Facebook "foodie" groups. But please, if it's busy, take your time and give a quality product and don't be afraid to say "hey, it's crazy busy. Might be a little wait".Honestly bummed.In all my years of working in food service, the preach was that the food should be the same for every customer, every time. Consistency is key!

No stars, Extremely disapointed with this place. I ordered fresh cheese curds the ones that come in the fresh sack bags 2 years ago ,2 different times. They arrived fine and fresh. I ordered more cheese curds few weeks ago and when I called I asked SPECIFICALLY not in the vaccume seal bag as they change the flavor and texture of the curds. They tell me they will send fresh ones on that following Monday when they come in. Well my mom gets an email they have been shipped that saturday, very strange, and they my mom calls me and saying they are vaccum sealed! Gross!! Will not even eat these. I called and the manager tells me they stopped doing them in the fresh bags due to being tampered with in shipping. It would of been nice to tell me this before I placed the order and my mom spent over $55 on gross cheese curds! What a waste of money.They taste fake, ask before you order. Will not be ordering from them again.

I highly recommend stopping in for a sandwich! We love the Spicy Claire and are always blown away by the vast selection of cheese. The shop is small, but the wide selection of goodies is impressive. Aged cheddar cheese connoisseurs should definitely stop in the peruse the options.

The staff were beyond friendly and helpful, even though I showed up close to close. And for like 10 bucks I had the best sandwich I've eaten in EC. I rarely write any reviews, but I cannot say enough good things about this place.
