First time at Olive Oyl's and there's a lot going on here! Seems to be an exceptionally well run…read morebusiness. We all had egg sandwiches to go (two wraps and two traditional) and enjoyed them. Iced tea was good. Service was very good. The store has a lot of interesting items, especially if you like nostalgic candies. Decor was very charming. There's a deli case that might be great for lunch and I didn't read the menus on the walls. Sandwiches are made fresh and they appear to either have a bakery or a relationship with one as there were quite a few pastries that looked creative and fresh. It takes some time to make the food so my recommendation is to call them ahead of time so it is ready when you arrive. There are a few tables inside and a few more outside so there is seating. If you read my reviews you might know that the highest I give on a first visit is 4 stars. If I go back and the place is excellent again I raise it to 5. This is so that a place that is consistently the best of the best (vs a one time great experience) gets 5 stars over a place that just does it once. Olive Oyl's would definitely be eligible for a 5th star and I'm virtually certain to give it to them on the next visit. It was such a perfect combination of choices, quality, service and ambiance! We've been coming to Essex for so many years and always passed this place by for no reason in particular. Now I think we will visit every time we're in town!

I was excited to try Hartford Giant Grinder while visiting Niantic after seeing their giant…read moresandwiches and good reviews on Instagram. The guy behind the counter must've been having a tough day, he continually cut us off while trying to order and he muttered "I don't know why everyone has such an attitude". Things got a little heated and we exchanged "pleasantries" after I told him to cancel my sandwich. I was told that he said that "I could go F**k myself" after I left the store and then told the other people waiting to place an order that he didn't have anymore bread....when he definitely did. Again, maybe he was having a bad day or the heat was getting to him but this kind of attitude and service a little shocking. Even though I told him to cancel my order he still made the Deluxe Italian combo sandwich. After the exchange in the restaurant I really wanted to hate the sandwich but I have to admit it was very good. 4 stars for the sandwich, minus 2 stars for the attitude. Good luck HGG, I won't be back.

Some tables that we were able to push together to have a bigger group sit together. I ordered the pressed grilled chicken sandwich and enjoyed it!

Breakfast and lunch options were nice!
