Decided to stop in here for a quick lunch after the downtown race this morning. It's a cute deli with an old fashioned theme and plenty of seating! Service was also quick and the guy that took our order was very polite. I was so happy to see vegetarian options on the menu too and got the veggie sub! The veggies also looked great and were clearly fresh and crisp. The sandwich itself was light, yet filling. I didn't feel gross afterwards, like I do with fast food. Homemade is much better! The chips were a nice side as well. No complaints with this place. read more

Tried Groucho's downtown and the food didn't really impress me. The sandwich tasted like something I could have made at home and didn't feel worth the price. The house chips were also pretty plain and lacked flavor. The waiter was kind, but he didn't write our order down and my sandwich came out missing the condiments I asked for. He did apologize and bring them once I mentioned it, but it's exactly why I prefer when servers write orders down. The restaurant itself looked fine inside and the food came out in a decent amount of time. However, the atmosphere felt a little uncomfortable since the kitchen is visible and it felt like staff were watching while we ate. Overall, it just didn't stand out enough for me to return. read more

Service was very good. I had the pastrami. Very little meat, not at all what I was expecting. If you want a better pastrami sandwich, go somewhere else read more

Groucho's is a classic. Their sandwiches are great! Make sure you get the Formula 45 sauce on the side - it is a must for dipping. The service is quick and friendly! Groucho's is a great place to stop in for a chill and yummy lunch. read more

A TERRIBLE experience. Waited 35 minutes for a to go order. Dining room was practically empty, so that couldn't be an excuse. Got my food (finally) and everything is cold and thrown together. Never again. read more

Great service and food. Everything was fresh. Ordering online was easy and convenient. Food was ready early so didn't have to wait.

Yet another place that's really gone down hill. The service and food was pretty good but the place is just dirty looking. I got the Rueben alternative and it was good. Made with Pastrami rather than Corn Beef. Dressing came on the side. The person I was with got a turkey sub. It was strange in that there was a puddle of oil on top and a piece of salami under a massive amount of turkey. Nothing wrong with that, just something to be aware of if you don't eat pork. read more

This place is definitely a family ambiance of baked sandwiches. They are warm - full of meat and cheese. They are really delicious have tons of options and have amazing service. I would recommend trying out the different sauces and finding your favorite. A must try in downtown ! read more

My daughter and I had lunch here today. My first time. My daughter has had lunch here on several different occasions. She recommended that I try her favorite, the STP dipper so we both had the same. In all honesty, the food was good but not great. I saw many loaves of commercially bagged bread and none baked in store . Fresh bread like Subway's is for obvious reasons better. This eatery takes a whole loaf of sub bread and cuts it in half. They make two sandwiches that way. In essence you get half of what you'd normally get at any sub shop for the same price. The roast beef was tasty but it wasn't of the quality you would get with Boar's Head. My STP with a small bag of chips and a regular tea was over 14.00. A bit pricey for a half of a sub. None of this is significant enough for me to give this restaurant a bad review! As I said, the food was good and the employees who work there have fantastically great attitudes and personalities! I'll try something different next time and maybe I can upgrade this review! It does annoy me to leave a luncheon and still be hungry! read more

BLTs aren't hard to make, and Groucho's Deli makes a relatively generous one, in a way. I had one delivered today via Hub City Delivery (love those guys). While I say that BLTs aren't hard to make, they can taste pretty bad when made by the wrong people. I'd hoped that Groucho's wasn't staffed by the wrong people. I think my hopes have been dashed on the rocks of life. I asked for mine to be on TOASTED white bread. Look at the picture. Does that look toasted to you? Do you know what happens when someone is lazy, in a hurry, or just plain incompetent, and rushes the toasting of bread (or can't be bothered making sure it's right)? It comes out looking and tasting STALE. I paid $9.29 for a BLT on AMATEUR-HOUR bread. Your people can't toast properly? Bread is the foundation of every sandwich (duh), and this one is no exception. Apparently they need lessons in basic toasting. Groucho's, DM me. If your management team can't manage to teach toasting 101, I can. Do better. The bacon was generous, even if it was way too crumbly. It had a solid presence without being too smoky. Kudos. The lettuce was there. There really isn't much one can say about lettuce. Not sure where the tomato was, to be honest. It was pretty absent, as in if it was there, it has zero flavor/presence. You need to up your tomato game for $9.29 per sandwich, because I didn't taste any. Nor did I taste any mayo/condiment. I had a small bag of spectacularly average chips with this disappointing BLT. I've had better Lay's chips, and I can't stand those. If you want seriously amazing chips, order Gibbles from www.shipmychips.com. You will never look at chips the same way again. No lie. Will I order from Groucho's again? Based on this BLT, nope. Such an easy thing to get right, and these folks can't manage it. Not much of a deli, tbh. Apparently Michael R from Groucho's can't handle a direct, specific review of his sh*tty BLT, based on his response which he probably won't be man enough to leave up if he gets push-back. He's not smart enough to realize that just because it's a first complaint in public doesn't mean others haven't been satisfied or won't complain in the future. And I didn't dine in, Mikey Einstein. I had it delivered. Had I been at your sh*thole establishment, I'd have asked for the bread to be toasted correctly, even if it meant showing your incompetent cooks how to do it. My review wasn't "unhinged." What it seemed to make is you, Michael, very defensive about your incredibly mediocre output. And it makes you, Michael, very obviously hostile about a deserved negative, public review. YOU have the problem here. I don't. Do you think you've made me look bad? How do you think you're going to look to anyone out there who reads your ridiculous, overly personal response to my honest review of your crappy sandwich? Is someone having a bad day, wittle boy? Don't worry, Michael R Buhttholio. I won't order from your crappy establishment again. If you people can't manage to toast bread, I wouldn't waste my money there AGAIN. In fact, in my original review, I'd already indicated that I won't order from your place again. Do you finally feel like a man telling me to not go to a place I'd already deemed unworthy? Such a manly tantwum, Mikey. Big stwong man told me off. I'm totally laughing at you, and I'm pretty sure I won't be the only one. read more

Groucho's Deli - Does this look toasted to you? - Delis Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

First time coming here, from Atlanta. Was just walking around the city and was getting hungry. So, I came across this place. They support sports and older things like drinks (coke, dr. Pep.,) vintage stuff. Had a sandwich with roast beef, bologne, salami and cheese. Tasted good! Instead of a side of chips I had potato salad. It tasted okay, I think too much seasoning in it though. Good customer service, esp on a Sunday when it was busy. read more

Service is always with a smile and the food is good!! Great place for a quick sandwich.

I've had various of their sandwiches and salads over the years. It's always fresh and fast! My go to sandwich is the Brown Moose and I really enjoy their chicken salad plate. read more

Ordered pickup it was ready on time and no mistakes. Everyone was pleased with their selections. Best salads and sandwiches.

This is such a fun lunch place! Just went for the first time with some friends. The service was great and the staff helped in picking what to eat. The 45 sauce is different but really good! I got the STP dipper. This is not typical deli food, but it's great! read more

Service was friendly and fast and food was delicious! Restaurant was clean and inviting. Highly recommend!

I have been going to Groucho's Deli since I was a baby and still love it to this day. I especially love this Spartanburg location because it is close to where I live and I can always run down and get me a sandwich if I'm craving it. (which is often) They have excellent friendly, trained, and helpful staff to make your experience a 10/10. I always get the all white STP or the Apollo Dipper which is a toasted hoagie-like bread with hot turkey, and melted cheese on top (you can put ham or bacon on it too but I don't) and it is delicious. It melts in your mouth to were you always want another bite. I think all of their sandwiches come with a pickle, their signature potato chips and their signature "Formula 45" sauce. It is always clean inside and my go-to eating spot in Spartanburg. I have been to their other locations but this one is my favorite! Will definitely be coming back very soon!! read more

I have eaten at a ton of Groucho's and this is the best one! Excellent service and the food is amazing!

Best sandwich in the Carolina's. Nothing tops their freshness and quality. Anytime I'm in an area that has a Groucho's, I make sure to grab a sandwich. If for no other reason to take it home for later. read more

Groucho's Deli - Delis Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

I feel unkind giving this place a 2 star but I've tried it without a good experience three times now. This place is physically unclean each time. The floor has that slightly tacky feel and the tables often have remnants of the last person's meal. Their three options are essentially cheese-based sandwiches with token vegetables added. The only way to eat vegetarian and dairy-free is to get a green salad with an oil-based dressing, pickle, chips, and olives. It is hard to mess up chips or a pickle but the olives had a really funky tasty that did not resonate with me. The salad was also very lack luster and drowning in dressing. This is a chain so I do not anticipate the menu items becoming more accommodating. If this place prioritizes cleanliness more, then it may be a good quick eats place for a meat-eater, but I don't anticipate ever going back. read more

Came in on our lunch break, the restaurant was full but everyone had food in front of them. I thought this was great so I could make it make to work on my hour break. After sitting for 5 minutes we got our drink, but after 20 minutes we hadn't had anyone stop by once. So in a rush we paid for our drinks and went to a different deli that could get us in and out faster. read more

Went in for a quick sandwich for dinner and it took 20 minutes to find out that they didn't even put my order in. The food was being heated up in a microwave which is disgusting and there's flies around the food. Prime location in Spartanburg wasted by a place like this. read more

How can a place like this exist on the main st of a town? Over salted, bad service, soggy bread. Everything about it is depressing.

My kids and I love this place! Tried our first one in Georgetown and was so happy to have one in Spartanburg! Absolutely love the 45 sauce. Been to this one a few times during lunch hours and they're always attentive. read more

This is a small sandwich shop that has locations throughout South Carolina and a few in North Carolina as well. When you enter the establishment, you seat yourself and someone will come take your order. Our server came and got our drinks immediately while we took a look at the menu. They have a variety of preset sandwiches or you can make your own. They also serve salads as well but I stick to the sandwiches. I decided to order the Mid East Special which is a sub roll filled with pastrami, bologna, salami, and provolone cheese that comes hot. The food came out within a few minutes and came with the famous Groucho's Formula 45 sauce on the side a bag of chips and a pickle. The sandwich was filled with meat and cheese but had no lettuce or any veggies in it. I wasn't a fan of the sauce on the side but most people tend to enjoy the Formula 45 Sauce. The sandwiches are decent and vary from 5 to 8 bucks and are nicely sized. This is an ok spot to get a quick sandwich bite if you want something cheap and quick. Service was fine and there is a nice menu where you can find any sandwich for anyone. read more

My wife and I were driving through town and wanted to grab a bite. My wife has Celiac and was cautious, however the staff was very accommodating and stated they have not only a special allergy specific menu with all items listed but also have a dedicated kit which is kept separate from the other prep items to ensure safety. The staff was super cheerful and very helpful! Food was very tasty as well. read more

A solid sandwich place. Love their formula 45 sauce! My husband typically goes there once a week and anytime I am in the mood for a sandwich, this is where we go. The staff are very friendly too! read more

Our Sandwiches were not "weighed". Maybe you need to check up on your employees. I will not be returning. I can make a bigger and better "healthy portion" at home from now on. Wish they'd put something else in that corner building! Waste of a space! read more

I spent 10 yrs running sandwich shops such as this so I caution any reader against my slightly more biased review compared to most. That said, my chicken sandwich with bacon and Swiss was not good. My wife's roast beef and provolone wasn't any better. The restaurant was quite busy; manager should have planned for that since it's Spring Fling. 2 stars based on food and not the service. I'm invested in downtown. I want to shop and eat here so please Grouchos let's work it out. Sparkle City needs you to improve the food. So if you go and it's not great slather your food in the Formula 45 sauce. It is delicious. 1 star for the sauce. 1 star for location. I'd go one more time for a second chance. read more

Katie is amazing! She always takes care of me! Delicious food, always correct even though they are slammed. Even though parking is difficult it's worth it 100%!

I had a blt which was rubbery bacon I'm guessing it was microwaved bacon. Awful and hardly edible. Then my drink had two white bugs floating in it. I was so grossed out I didn't take a good inspection I'm just praying they weren't maggots. Never ever ever again. read more
