This was our second & last attempt. After our last review on FB Derek the owner reached out & asked…read morethat we give them a second chance, so we did. We got there a little after 7 tonight & it wasn't overly packed but it was busier than the last time we were there. We waited over 35 minutes for our appetizer, the cheesy shrimp rolls. At this point my friend Charity Cruz called our server over to ask how much longer it would take. There was absolutely NO communication from our server prior to this. She said she would check, she came back & said there were two tickets ahead of us & it would be a 5-10 minute wait. So in other words she forgot to put the order in, because 10 minutes later our appetizer came out. Before you say how do you know she didn't put in the order?? I watched the door because I was facing out. No other servers came out with an appetizer or an order within that time. When she sat the cheesy shrimp tacos in front of us she asked if we would like any sauces. I asked what did it come with, to which she informed us she didn't know because she didn't order it. She went to find out & came back with a little container of sour cream, salsa & ranch. Now this was by far a very good appetizer! It was seasoned well & had a lot of shrimp in it. The sour cream complimented it. We had to ask for napkins & silverware. She brought them to us after we finished the appetizer. This shouldn't have to be something that's asked for, but it happens. Still nothing from her, she just lays them on the table & walks away. I ordered the French Dip Grilled sliced sirloin and melted cheese jammed in a roll with house made au jus 9.99 with french fries. I asked if it came with onions & asked what type of cheese they put in the sandwich. She told me she didn't know but would find out, she came back to say it has white cheese. My friend ordered the "Butcher Day" Pork Chop A 12 oz. thick cut, Dutch chop topped with fresh pineapple, includes one side, and bread 14.99 she got broccoli with cheese as her side. ** This was suggested to her in her last review (which was also a horrible experience) We received our meals at a quarter after eight, so over an hour after coming in & still no communication from our server on the delay. There were less people in the dining room then when we first got there (I mention this to show they weren't swamped.) The pork chop was so heavily salted it was like licking a salt block. The broccoli & cheese was a straight up joke! (See picture as to why). She had asked the server for the pineapples that were supposed to be on the pork chop & she was told they were out of pineapples. You would think that would have been something that was told to us when the order was placed. Her toast was cold as well. My sandwich wasn't overly bad. It definitely tasted like one of those steak hoagies you get in a bag to cook at home in a bind. The fries are definitely frozen fries & were cold. The au jus was absolutely horrible, it had no seasoning & no taste. We had to get another server to get a manager because ours was nowhere in sight. I had to ask again for a manager & finally after almost 15 minutes a woman showed up at our table. She didn't identify herself & said her name was Beth when I asked. We explained how we'd been in the other night & because Derek reached out to us we tried to gave it a second attempt. We showed her the broccoli with the piece of cheese just laying on top & she said "lovely." She told us the reason we had no silverware was because they kept running out tonight & how our server was new, multiple excuses. We were told they have been out of pineapples for a month now & she keeps telling the cooks this. I told her the customers need to be told this! She never apologized but told us the pork chop usually was the best thing on the menu. Then asked if we wanted to speak with Peyton. I asked who this was?! She informed me Derek's daughter & I said sure. She clearly couldn't make the decision on the experience & needed higher up. (I found out later she was a shift lead so I'm not sure if that's a manager or not.) She came back out after another 15 minutes & said Peyton must be in the basement. She then proceeded to tell us that she was going to make the exact meal for us to go. Lol so not even the fact that 1) we weren't asked if that's what we wanted to do or 2) to rectify the situation if we wanted it remade to where we were dining in, but to be told that it would be packaged up for us to go.. I told her no thank you, the meal wasn't enjoyable while we were here, we're definitely not going to take it home and try it again! She disappeared into the kitchen, saying that she had to tell the cooks this. The next thing we know our server comes out, muttering, something to where neither one of us could understand and lays our ticket on the table & walks off.

This sandwich shop just might be the best-kept secret in Cookeville. As of the date of this review,…read moreyou can't even find it on the Which Wich app and it took me some effort to find it on the list of stores on their website. Which Wich Cookeville in fact can be eventually found with a little junior detective work. It is on the Tennessee Tech University campus housed within Roaden University Center. It is nestled in an out of the way corner in the same lower building level as the campus bookstore. For some unknown reason, the procedure for filling out your sandwich "order bag" at this location is different. Just go to the counter and the person there will help you. There are two types of order bags- favorites and build your own. Customizing is available on the favorites which is not well known. I wonder if in the past the order bags and marker pens were too much of a temptation to leave access to the student body at large? Which Wich offers three size sandwiches- 7" regular, 10" large, and 14" super. The super-size sandwich might be a good choice for sharing. You can also have your wich as a tortilla wrap or totally bread free with a lettuce wrap. Other reviewers commented about excessive wait times- I felt the wait for my wich was appropriate. Made fresh takes more time than pre-prepared and sitting under a heat lamp for who knows how long. I found that the sandwich makers are generous with the meats- so much that the veggies on my wich had hardly any space to call their own. In addition to sandwiches, Which Wich also offers green and pasta salads. I didn't try a salad this visit but the photos look good on their website. I did decide to try the house potato chips with my combo and I liked their just-right combination of salt and pepper toppings. In addition to soft drink favorites, Which Wich has sweet and unsweet teas and made to order real ice cream milkshakes in 7 flavors. Currently, orders are take-out only (due to COVID-19) and the chairs have been removed from around the tables in the store's dining area. This is not a huge problem as there is plenty of seating space in the commons area near the bookstore and there are tables outside if the weather is favorable This location is only open the same hours as the Roaden University Center building which means that they are closed weekends. (Insert sad panda face emoji here). A true tragedy because the weekend is the perfect time to order the BrunchWich featuring a sunny side up egg and thick-cut bacon. Which Wich is a great alternative to "fried" fast food and each wich is made to order fresh. Give them a try when you have the Jones for a healthy meal that tastes great too.
