Oh Lenny's. :( So I am an extremely busy grad student and always in the mood for a good whole wheat hero sub. I tried Lenny's with my boyfriend last year on a whim and had an amazing experience with my delectable turkey sub complete with huge slices of avocado, alfalfa sprouts and swiss cheese. I am talking...delicious! So, of course, being a creature of habit, I began to order delivery to my home and office at least once a week, sometimes up to three times a week. I let it go in my heart when I discovered they apply an "administrative" charge to all delivery orders, in addition to my tipping the delivery person. I even forgave them for forgetting my alfalfa sprouts or cheese on occasion. They always said they'd credit to my next order and I always going to order again, so I was okay with that. I also let it go when I discovered that a time i tipped on my card rather than handing cash to the delivery person, there was an extra dollar charge to the total. I figured that maybe they couldn't read my writing or something to that effect. I really loved my $12 sandwich meal, you see. However, as the months have waned on, the quality of the sandwich has steadily gone done. I have noticed the amount of avocado and alfalfa sprouts, which I pay a dollar and fifty cents for each, respectively, has decreased to the point that I took pictures to show my boyfriend how the little I was given on the last few orders. I don't know if it's new management or what, but I was definitely not imagining that. Then, the last straw. I don't care, but there is absolutely no excuse for what happened a couple weeks ago. I was checking my credit card charges and realized that someone had again added an extra dollar to my total. There is no way they didn't understand my handwriting because I wrote the total down legibly because of the first incident. The worst thing is, I called and explained the situation to the lady who answered the phone and she took my number and said a manager would return my call the next day as there was no manager on hand. That was two weeks ago. Apparently my business is not worth their time. I guess it's good because I know I will get a hankering for a delicious sub and I will surely find a new favorite place in NYC. I am sure there are places that deserve my business in this great city. read more

I was surprised and a bit ashamed by how much I enjoyed my sandwich at Lenny's. Usually I avoid national chains, or larger local chains like Lenny's, but i was in the area and needed a fast bite so hopped in and placed an order. I got the lenwich because any food item named after the restaurant is probably their best offering right? The Lenwich is Lenny's take on the Reuben: pastrami, corned beef, swiss cheese, coleslaw, and russian dressing. I never had a problem with the reuben before, and order it quite frequently when at a deli, but the lenwich with the slaw instead of the kraut was amazing. Delicious pastrami/corned beef blend, didn't skimp on the meat, wasn't over dressed, served on my choice of bread (toasted ciabatta for something different). Inside feels very corporate, but the lines weren't long, the food came out quick but was still prepared fresh, and the price wasn't bad. I would go back here again for the same order. read more

This place reminds me of a pretentious Subway's. Some part of me thinks its their version of Banana Republic. I do really like the additions like hummus, avocado, and portobello mushrooms, but the other day I was making a sandwich and it turned out to be $16. Jeeze. They should really label it better how much each addition is. The food is good though, so If your in need of lunch its not a bad place to stop by. read more

I used to be a relatively frequent visitor of this location. No longer. I placed a sandwich order. I sat next to the cashier for 20 minutes. Finally I go up and inquire about my order. She doesn't even acknowledge me, even though the store is empty. Doesn't recall my order. Finally remind her, apparently it "didn't go through the system" . No apologies, no courtesy- she offers me a refund as if she's doing me a huge favor. Terrible experience read more

Lenny's is where I order breakfast when I am hungover. There is something almost magical about the fried potatoes. I've also had the Thanksgiving type sandwich and the Chef salad and they both have been excellent. They remember you by your phone number and that's kinda nice in a creepy way. read more

Lenny's was one of the restaurants that came to the rescue of all affected by Sandy. They set up coffee urns and had egg sandwiches and muffins ready for anyone who was hungry and cold. They did this immediately, and without fanfare, and for this I will always be a faithful customer! I always liked this place, but showing their support with free food and coffee at a time when people really needed it, and at a time when others were price gouging shows what a stand up place this was, and they should be rewarded with good business for the community and with class! read more

So many kinds of sandwiches to choose from! Yum. So hard to decide. Split the #1 (pastrami, corned beef, swiss cheese, coleslaw, and russian dressing) and the #5 (chicken cutlet, red peppers, onions, honey mustard) with my boyfriend. We liked the #1 better. So good! Both sandwiches were huge. We came starving, but only finished one sandwich. Took half home and had it for dinner. The pastrami and corned beef were good, but not anything out of this world--drool type of good--just good. Really appreciate the huge selection though! Would come back and try a salad as well! Great lunch spot for sure. read more

I had an hour wait until my next yoga class started. Trying to find refuge to take a phone call and get a snack, I stumbled into Lenny's. I was really excited to order a sandwich because a.) I love sandwiches b.) allegedly Lenny's creates the "best sandwiches in New York!" Unfortunately, my whole experience was ruined by the rude cashiers at front. I was reading my choice off, and I said, "Oh.. I didn't know that it had roast beef?" and grimaced. She sat there stone face. Not offering, "Oh, we will be happy to take that off." Nothing. I even noticed a cashier rolling her eyes after a customer paid while I was waiting. These girls needed a serious attitude adjustment. I got my sandwich without a tray, and without napkins. I looked around to make sure that I wasn't the only one. Two guys next to me had trays and napkins fully enjoying their meals. I didn't even want to go back to the cashier stand to ask for napkins because of how rude these girls were. I ended up going back because I wasn't sure if a drink and chips came included and didn't want to assume that they did. They didn't, and this was stated as if it were a fact that I should've known innately out of the womb. It's such a shame because the sandwich I had was good. The experience was terrible. This happened three days ago and it's still fresh in my mind. Lo siento, Lenny's. read more

What a horrible establishment. I came in here with my mom and sister and we were waiting to order with the people behind the counter, like you would at other places, only to keep getting ignored. There was a sign that said "Order with cashiers at this time." But this sign was placed on the side, how was anyone supposed to know that it was in effect? So i go up to the cashier and ask her where do i order? She asks me, what am i getting and i felt the need to reestablish that I haven't ordered yet to make sure that I wasn't just going to pay for it. Then she tells me with an attitude, "YEAH, YOU ORDER WITH ME." My mother had wanted a tuna sandwich, so i just asked for that, not wanting to give such rude people anymore business. Then as I wait for the food, i start hearing someone call out my name, but I never told them my name so naturally I ignored it, thinking theres a worker there with the same name. But then after a while my sister tells me she thinks theyre calling me for my order. Which they were. BUT HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW ALL THESE OPERATIONS WHEN ITS MY FIRST TIME HERE???? If you want to feel stupid and lost come here and give them your business, they are PROS at making it happen. read more

I tried Lenwich after hearing great things about their sandwiches and I must say that it lives up to its reputation. I ordered a buffalo chicken wrap for lunch and the delivery took an avg 25-30mins. My food arrived fresh and my wrap was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be ordering from here again. read more

So i have accidentally been here a couple of times. I'm here now. It's not the NYC deli experience with the flamboyantly new yorker accent and it's certainly no Murray's Bagels but its spacious. You can get a sandwhich your way. I mean really your way. 13 different types of bread/wraps. that's crazy choice. i got my fav. roast beef, tomatoe, spinach, and russian dressing. if i had put bacon on it, it would have been like the russian mistress sandwhich. which is a great name for a sandwhich. the chicken soup with real chicken was salty but satisfied at 35 degree weather. the service was super fast, warm and friendly, with smiles! This one has an ATM inside. Evidentally Keanu eats her, and Dillon, and now ME. From hipsters to the next door pharmacist, to tourists, its a whole mix of folks. At times it can resemble a Barnes and Nobles with people reading and eating. one star for clean, one star for great food, one star for electrical plugs (a must) and one star b/c of service. read more

I've walked past Lenny's on 6th Avenue for years but never really had the attraction to eat there. I had my first experience there yesterday because I was craving a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich (don't ask)...and it totally hit the spot. They have a great selection of fresh and appetizing food made to order. I also must mention that the 7-grain bread was GREAT untoasted. I wish their little side salads weren't $4 or I would have gotten one or two of those. Great lunch spot, I'd go back! read more

Get the buttery oatmeal that's so comforting and delicious, the hazelnut coffee (the cheapest in town and the best!) and the veggie sandwich with muenster cheese. read more

Did you know NY is heaven for vegetarians and salad-lovers (non-vegetarians) and picky eaters? Lenny's can satisfy all these people!! Awesome salad bar with generous portion, service and so much options!! Try breakfast, lunch and snack there!! With my one 10-dollar bill, I could get awesome full of veggie-egg white omelet and very foamy cappucino. Self-service and free wifi. Great place to start your day. read more

I come here on occasion. It's a bit pricey for around $8 a sandwich, but it's really good. It's always freshly prepared and they have a wide selection of ingredients. They have this sandwich that has a whole Thanksgiving meal. Turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce all on a roll. It's quite tasty. read more

Clean. Neat. Polite. Food is really great! They are very generous with their salads. The sandwiches are a good size and they are delicious! I really like the atmosphere of the place. If you need a place to relax or do some homework this is the place for you.... just don't sit in front of the door because it gets pretty cold in the winter. read more

19 minutes for my breakfast wrap at this location. I was about to approach them when They called my name. It was 9:30 a.m. so maybe they thought the breakfast Rush was over? It's not McDonald's fast food so I can accept that. Unfortunately, though, the communication needs to be better. I saw one guy with a suitcase -clearly looking like he needs to be somewhere- leave in a huff . He was there before I was and was still waiting for his food. They should've told folks that it was going to be a while and rushed the travel guy's food, imo. He probably would've been good return/catering business. They clearly have a pretty busy delivery and catering business because it looked they had all of the food prep folks working on the orders for that and got super behind on the seven people who had already put in orders and we're waiting. I'll just plan to come here if only if I've got the time to spare, I think. read more

Decent sandwiches, but they've significantly raised their prices (to a ridiculous extent) over the last year. I just paid $14.70 for an Italian hero to go (no chips, no pickles, etc.). They should be ashamed of themselves. They've lost a customer. read more

Most of the poor comments are disgruntled white ppl lol. This place is one of my favorites. Don't let the comments discourage you. Prices and quality are more than decent. read more

Usually looks clean. . Many food choices...good bagels n sandwiches .. my experience only thing I won't ever order again is grilled cheese. . They don't know how to make it for some reason and not just this location I've tried at 3 locations all the same soggy mess of a sandwich I tried w. Bacon also n the bacon was swimming in the cheese n grease yuk read more

Great grab-and-go option for the city. The sandwiches are made relatively fast and include many tasty ingredients. Lenwich sandwiches have a large variety and are great for lunch or dinner. However, one problem that might need to be addressed by a manager is the attitude of the staff. Many are carefree and lack professionalism or the will to try hard. Although this is not a major problem, it is a bit disheartening to see the staff behave like this. It does not heavily impede the Lenwich experience and I certainly would come back again. read more

I ordered the hazelnut coffee for $1.25 and the tuna salad sandwich with carrot, cucumber, alfalfa sprouts, tomato and dijion mustard for $6.50. IT was sooo good! If only I ordered a bigger sandwich. I had this on regular sliced bread. The alfalfa sprouts amazed me...yes this is the first time I had it. Now I use it when I make sandwiches. read more

First time here and wasn't terribly impressed with the food. The staff was really friendly , fast and helpful though. Got a whole wheat bagel (meh) with low-fat cream cheese and tomato. The bagel was a little tough, and the cream cheese was kind of slimy, almost like they'd added oil or something to make it creamier? I don't know, but it was pretty gross. I wouldn't get that again. Would be nice if they offered a tofu cream cheese option. Lenny's will do in a pinch i suppose. But it ain't no Ess A Bagel. read more

Had a jeuben (Reuben with no cheese,) good pastrami, bad saeurkraut, woman in front was kind of annoying but accomodating

It took two hours and four calls to get my one sandwich and soda delivered. The first time they told me it had just left and would be there in 10 minutes. The second time they told me they never got my order so they'd make it now, so they obviously lied to me in the first call. The third and fourth time they just never answered. read more

Location is great and food very good for what it is... buts somebody should really train the staff. They have no idea how to act properly around customers. It's like they are a bunch of friends back there and the customers that come in are a bother to them. read more

I ordered a salmon on a well toasted bagel ... this was the worst 15 bucks I've ever spent... I would never ever walk into that place ever again or recommend this place ever to anyone. the salmon was ice cold little tiny strips of onion and very little capers... read more

Their sandwich wall has something for everyone and their service is really fast. They also deliver, but by the time the food arrives, I feel like its kind of soggy from tomatoes/wet lettuce. Lenny's is usually my last resort for lunch because their sandwiches are pricey, but after I eat one of their sandwichesn I'm usually full for the rest of the day. read more

It was so cold in here! At first it felt amazing because it was disgustingly muggy outside but after a while I had to put my sweater on. On to the food...my friend and I came here for lunch and were impressed with the menu of sammies. We both ordered the Jimmy T, breaded chicken with melted mozzarella cheese, sweet peppers and honey mustard. It was so good! The peppers provided a great flavor and there was just enough honey mustard on the bread. I slammed through that sandwich like a pro. I love that they have a great deal of bread types to choose from and that you can add bacon or other fixings to your meal. With a drink my meal was about $9 which isn't bad for a good sandwich. It is kind of annoying having to ask the cashier for the key to the restroom, I feel like I am in high school having to ask for a bathroom pass. read more

Good customer service -- attentive and friendly. Actually just went in for breakfast and wanted oatmeal. Wasn't too pleased. Tasted more like milk than actual oatmeal. They used too much milk but other than that, the sandwiches! I have had them in the past and they are delicious. It's been a while though but from what I remember, just think, soft bread and yummy insides. I'd definitely give their sandwiches another try. read more

Lenny's produces a consistent sandwich. It also does hot foods and salads. It is much better than a deli, and this one in particular is fast and has plenty of seating. I've heard several friends had good experiences calling in large orders. read more

So many options on their menu but I've only gotten the Chicken Parm and Italian sandwiches, classics that can't go wrong, and Lenny's makes them bigger (that's what she said?). Large menu is a bit intimidating, but the staples are good and the sandwiches are usually made in a reasonable amount of time. I've never tried it, but they have free wifi for those looking for a Starbucks alternative. read more

Good place for lunch in this neighborhood. Ingredients are always fresh. Surprisingly there are not many other places to order a "made to order" "make your own" salad around here and this Lenny's a reliable choice. 4 stars since it's not the kind of place I go for ambiance or get excited to go to One tip. They now add $1 for delivery. I would rather like to walk in and eat it in store or take out. read more

Awesome spot to pick up dinner on the run. I ordered the Autumn Special which included: roast turkey breast, brie cheese, cranberry sauce, mesclun, and balsamic vinaigrette all melted and grilled together on a fresh ciabatta roll. AMAZINGLY seasonal and fresh tasting. Also ordered the chicken parm sandwich on a white sub roll. It was mediocre. The chicken and cheese were both very good- but I personally prefer a little bit more sauce! Otherwise, it was good and filling overall. The wait was somewhat long for sandwiches-- but it was dinner-time and these were completely made to order. Can't wait to go back again! read more

I order delivery. Burgers medium-rare with lettuce, tomato and onion. A filling burger for the price. I've been coming to Lenny's (now 'Lenwich') for some decades now. read more

Here's an update. A nice bone in my salad Don't bother ordering from here unless you don't want your whole order to come to you. Like your salad without the dressing you ordered? Check! Sandwiches without all the items you ordered? Check! I am just confused as to what Lenwhich's "Administrative Fee" is going towards because it sure as hell isn't order accuracy. Today was the first day I ordered from them again since my last upset months prior, what a welcome back. At least my tip was well spent because the food got here very quickly. read more

Lenwich - Yum Yum a nice bone salad - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - New York, New York

Another never go place. Never. Soft gross bread, wet bad meat... with small portions, high prices and standoffish staff to boot. Mediocre salads can easily cost up to $15 See, what I don't understand is why would anybody ever go here for a sandwich. It's NYC. Even without taking into consideration a good gourmet sandwich, just get any regular deli sandwich. When I'm in other parts of the country and there are only fake places like Lenny's I wish for even a regular NYC deli sandwich. How a lowest common denominator chain factory survives in in a neighborhood of supposed high taste is just baffling. read more

What happened to the cranberry bran muffin! I used to go way out of my way for it. I'm a Lenny lifer, so if one day this amazing muffin emerges I will regain my life loyalty! But they make their cocoa with water instead of milk...which is also negative points. Pick it up, Lenny's! I want to love you. read more

Looks promising & fresh but the sandwiches are stuffed very messily, taking away from the taste of the items. They never have, the best bread that they have to offer. The customer service is sub par. I expressed how excited I was and the Manager was just like oh okay. The sandwiches are 11.65 - thus you are much better off getting a sandwich from your local bodega. The salads are decent, but the chicken used taste as if it was reheated too many times. Won't try again, but if you want something really quick or to settle, 2 stars. read more

Lenwich from 10011. The manager here is a very rude person and he doesnt have manners at all. He thinks that because he is the manager he can talk to people like shit. When I spoke to him on the phone for a delivery order he was in such bad mood that he wouldnt tell me the breakfast options. Also when I ask for a delivery and he said that the minimun order were 12 dollars when i use to pay 9 dollars for a delivery order sometimes. His name is Sunny btw. read more
