Finally tried this place after driving by many times over the years. I wanted to like it more than I did. Loved that menu items were named after Norwood schools. Staff were unfortunately not friendly. Tried their "famous" chicken salad - very weak and unappealing flavor. I also did not expect the skin to still be on the chicken. Lettuce was primarily the hard center piece and did not help the texture of the sandwich. Threw half the sandwich out. Braided roll was delicious. Will probably give them another shot at some point, as I'm frequently in the area. read more

Had a delicious italian sandwich here and got a meatball sub to go as well. Service is quick and the turnaround time for sandwiches was so fast I was shocked. Portions are decent although things are getting pricier. Happy to pay it here as ingredients seemed fresh and the sandwiches were very big. It's a no-frills place but worth it to stop in for a filling lunch sandwich! read more

Food is freshly made (i.e. bread/meatballs) amazing flavor and fresh even down to the croutons, they won't break your teeth! We had a combination of Hot subs and Cold subs, they were all so delicious and fresh, I swear the bread makes the sub so much more enjoyable! The feedback from everyone at the office was great! Gail took our catering order over the phone, she was very helpful and pleasant! We have a catered lunch order once a week for our company and I am definitely going to be a return customer. Only a small downside is that they don't deliver to Canton from Norwood, but no problem, we have a warehouse employee that had no problem picking up the order for us. Definite must order your next sandwich from them! read more

I've been visiting this deli for MANY years. Every person that helped me has been fantastic! I love my corn beef sandwich and have enjoyed chatting with each employee over the years. After my stem cell transplant, the lovely lady( sorry to forget her name) took care of my dietary needs and still does every time I walk through the door. Thanks so much! read more

I have been here twice for lunch. On both occasions I was very hungry, and their portions are very generous. But each time, the quality of the food was mediocre. The people who work here are very polite and helpful. On my first trip, which admittedly was about 4 years ago, I had a cup of watery, and fairly tasteless soup, and a turkey sandwich, which was okay, but was made with the slightly slimy and watery turkey (which indicates its water-added and not real roasted turkey). It wasn't inedible or anything, but was sufficiently unimpressive that I didn't return until last week. On my return, I ordered a meatball sub, as another Yelper had recommended it highly. Although the meatballs were huge, there was very little tomato sauce, and too much provolone, and so the sub was too dry, and (strangely) the strong cheese masked the flavors of the meatballs. As there are PLENTY of other good lunch spots in the area, this little place, with an underwhelming interior, is not on my personal list for righteous lunchtime food. read more

They made me a Steak & Cheese on a braided roll today that saved my life. Love the casual but inviting atmosphere and the friendly counter service. read more

Lunch Box Deli - I noticed no one uploaded pics of the Steak and Cheese Sandwich that did it justice. This quickly became my go to for Steak n Cheese's. - Delis Near Me - Norwood, Massachusetts

Delicious sandwiches, and served steaming hot! Fast courteous service and the place is literally gleaming clean. Good value for your money.

Fast and friendly. Great roll for steak sandwich, nicely toasted. Had steak sandwich and Reuben. Both were large, tasty. Would come back if in the area but would not make a special trip. Overall good but not compelling sandwiches. read more

I've been here four or five times and find the prices to be fair and the portions generous. I can't give it five stars because there's nothing "exceptional" about it. The food is good. None of the items are especially unique or different. It's good. Good value. Good prices. No complaints. As another 4-star review said, "Good but not compelling." read more

Excellent sandwiches and staff. Love everything about this place. Now I just need to reach 85 characters so that they let me post this review read more

our go to spot for amazing sandwiches and fantastic service! never misses! Fresh ingredients

The service is always friendly and the food is fresh. Never a disappointment!! Keep upbthe good work!!!

We ordered sandwiches online to pick up and they were DELICIOUS. Very generous portions and yummy ingredients. We ordered the Rachel, the steak + cheese and the meatball sandwiches to share. I thoroughly enjoyed them all! The bread was also fresh and delicious. read more

This is closer to 5 stars than 4 stars. The bread they use for the loaded Italian is special and that's a helluva nice take on that classic sub. Perfect place to hit after a long morning when you're hungry and what good takeout. read more

The sandwiches are great. The staff is friendly. They will always make a custom sandwich for you without hesitation.

Mehh. Not impressed. I was in the area and wanted to grab something quick for lunch. I ordered the loaded italian sandwich. The braided roll was very dry. The ingredients were arranged in the strangest way - veggies on the bottom and meats on the top. The meats seemed like they were almost rolled into a ball and placed on top of the veggies. Anytime you took a bite, it was either all meat or all veggies. At least they all seemed fresh! I don't live in this area but if I had to come back here, I would go with any other sandwich. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE. So much. Words can't describe the pure happiness I am filled with when I sit down after work to eat my meatball sub. Bonus points if a red gatorade is consumed as well. The meatball sub is SO GOOD. Best sub i've EVER had. Also, i've been a Monster Energy fan for a very long time and this has been the ONLY place i've ever been able to find Ultra Red and Blue. BONUS POINTS! 11/10 recommend, id give this place 7 stars if I could. Service is always great and it's nice and bright in there. It has many windows. read more

Loved this place when we lived down the street. Sandwhiches were some of the best in Norwood, surprisingly. Friendly staff. Location is meh, as its on a highway, but thats great for parking/lunch if youre shopping for a car or at Newbury Comics read more

This place is one of the best for catered lunches. So many options for platters or boxed lunches. They have amazing Gluten Free options as well. I have used them a few times for events and I can not recommend them enough. Gail has been amazing! read more

I found this place by accident and now I stop by literally every time I visit my dealership nearby for service or when I'm craving a really good sandwich. If you love a good Italian sub, you have to try it here. To be honest, it's so good I don't even get a photo of it before I destroy that thing...and that says alot coming from someone who owns a Foodie Instagram. If you're a sandwich person, don't put this on your list...just freakin' go! read more

Amazing sandwiches. So fresh. So clean. The braided sesame rolls are fluffy and heavenly. Well run place. Always flawless. Try the chicken salad or rare roast beef!! read more

Lunch Box Deli satisfied my craving for a Meatball Sub, but I am not going to be running back any time soon. Overall, it was just okay - price wasn't crazy, wait time was normal, but the meatballs weren't anything special like I have had elsewhere. Maybe I took Italian Deli expectations to just a normal Deli, but this sandwich was just fine. If I was driving past this place and super hungry, I may stop again to give them another shot with a cold sandwich. read more

Lunch Box Deli - Meatball Sub - Delis Near Me - Norwood, Massachusetts

I think this place is under new ownership. Same menu, but they changed salad dressings. I always order the chicken caesar and it was very good. Picked up the same today, and they put tomatoes (which is never used in caesar) in the sandwich, no croutons, and the dressing is horrible. No taste/flavor at all. Won't be going back anytime soon. read more

Super clean, friendly staff. Got 4 sandwiches- buffalo chicken wrap, steak & cheese, chicken Caesar wrap & chicken salad. Chicken is a little dry. Sandwiches are huge! Cool old lunch boxes around the room. read more

The best sandwiches. We order all the time for meetings at work. Never disappoints. Wraps, too!

This place is fantastic!! I've been here 4 times in 2 weeks. I absolutely love the Balch sandwich! Boars head Turkey, bacon, fresh lettuce, tomato and mayo on your choice of bread. It's huge!! Cost is $8.02. I've also had the Cleveland Caprice. Prosciutto, fresh mozzarella cheese, tomatoes and fresh Basil with a splash of balsamic dressing. I've seen a few people take out the clam chowder too. Can't wait to try that. They have a specials board to the left when you walk in. A few big tables to the right to dine in. Also, a tv. It has lunch boxes that cover the top of the perimeter. Their awesome to look at. It takes you back in time. I want the Smurfette one!! The people are always extremely nice and it's really quick. I never wait long. Place always looks clean too. They have a card that they give you and stamp it every time you go and after 10 stamps you get a free sandwich. Don't forget to grab one of those. Parkings not bad. It's next to Newbury Comics. So I always park in that lot. Great place!! read more

Turkey sandwich and Cleveland Caprese were terrific. Can't wait to come back. Highly recommend. Friendly service. Fun to see all the lunchboxes. read more

Service is good and the lunch boxes on the walls are fun. However, every sandwich I have tried has been bland and dry. I'm on my 4th visit and nothing I have tried has stood out. read more

Terrible service. Don't come here. There are many alternatives within minutes nearby: Lambert's, Stash's Pizza, Royal Pizza, Papa Gino's / D'Angelo's, Broadway Pizza, Giorgio's Pizza, Victoria's Cafe, etc. Anywhere but here. The TLDR: I stood behind the rope that forms the line looking up at the menu when two people entered. There is a clear sign on top of that says where to enter the line. One entered the line, I entered the line, the first person made his order, then the other person went straight to the front of the line and the cashier took his order. I looked at the cashier, who made eye contact with me while taking the other person's order. Add to the fact that there were only three customers in line (or two and a line jumper); she clearly knew what she was doing. A simple "he was next," "the line forms that way," or basically anything would have resolved all this. The food is mediocre and overpriced anyway. Lambert's down Route 1 has all this with better ingredients and selection and is less expensive. There are many other options listed above that are all within minutes of here. read more

I am surprised by some of the negative reviews, I have eaten here a few times over the last 5 years or so and it always been very good! My visit the other day was no different. Staff was welcoming and attentive as I tried to decide on a sandwich and make my order. I got the loaded Italian and it was excellent! The bread was a little tough to chew but that's the style of bread not a statement on quality. The sandwich was big enough for 2 people to share (although I didn't) and the price was reasonable for the quality and portion. They are a cut above most all local sub shops. Only reason I didn't give it a 5 is I reserve that rating for "mind blowingly" good places. read more

Had to leave a review for this place - it's literally half the reason I get out of bed to go to work because I start to think about what sandwich I want that day, they are all incredible. Though I am partial to the Zesty Callahan chicken salad read more

Loaded Italian was solid. I have gotten it twice. Decent portion of meat and veggies. Nice fluffy roll. Hot Pastrami was very underwhelming. Very skimpy on the meat, soft soggy bread, spicy brown mustard and cheese. $10 for a small terrible example of a Hot pastrami. read more

"Sami, let's go to lunch!" That's what my boss said to me. So we got in his car and drove off to what I thought it was "going to lunch". So we drove and drove, we passed all the restaurants in the area and we got on route 1 south, away from the city, all the while without knowing where we were going. Then all of a sudden we pulled into the BMW dealer parking lot. We got in, the boss bought a brand new BMW for his daughter, then, instead of waiting for the paper work, we decided to grab a bite to eat, and we ended up at the Lunch Box Deli place which was on the other side of the highway from the dealership. I've always seen it every time I went to the next door Newbury Comics. Anyway, this place did not disappoint at all. I ordered the steak and cheese on breaded bread, my boss ordered the Italian sub, and my coworker got the pulled pork. We all loved our sandwiches, it is definitely one of the best sandwich places around, all fresh and clean. The sandwiches are big and very filling! Then afterwards, we went back to the dealership, got into the new BMW and went back to work. For my boss it was probably just a regular occurrence, but for me, I was like WTF just happened!!!! read more

Great deli with a large selection of wraps, subs, and salads. My mom and I got the Prescott (pastrami, spicy mustard, and Swiss cheese on rye bread) and I got the Rebel Caesar (grilled chicken Caesar wrap). Both were excellent! Nice little spot to have lunch at. Plus it's cool to look at all the old school lunchboxes they have hanging up on the walls read more

Lunch Box Deli - Phenomenal steak and cheese sub. Load of cheese. Good on the meats. Bread is not soggy. Good lunch - Delis Near Me - Norwood, Massachusetts

Delicious sandwiches. They are fresh. Just have low expectations if you call in the order or do the order on line. Always a mistake and when you call to discuss they offer no help. Which is unfortunate since you only get a short time to run out and pick up lunch when you are working all day. Imagine your only break it to pick up lunch because you're hungry forget to double check it before you leave get back to work and it's the wrong order.... not fun read more
