The BEST subs around!Always busy no matter what time but they fire the food out.Much like the TV show Cheers they always know your name,and seemingly everyone who lives in Wellesley.I strongly recommend the Friday Special which is a buffalo chicken sub with blue cheese dressing and well as the Dude Ranch (Turkey,bacon,lettuce,tomato and ranch). read more

A local favorite with a delicious array of sandwiches and deli meats. Don't let the long line fool you -- the service is fast and efficient. Our family favorites are the Meatball Sub and The Isabella. read more

Love the Linden store, the family, staff, the fantastic food and everything about this place!!

Has been amazing for over 20 years! Best Thanksgiving sub in MA! Fantastic customer service. Others in Wellesley take note.

Linden is a classic deli with a little hustle and bustle edge! Sandwiches made to order and the catering is always fantastic! Ronny, Marco, Bill, Fernando and Maria are true sandwich artists. Always a pleasure! Highly recommend for lunch!!! read more

Great sandwich shop! The staff is friendly. I've been coming here for years. At times it's really busy & the setup of the line to order is confusing. The prices are a little high but you do get a great quality sandwich. They have a lot of different sandwiches to chose from. Would definitely recommend stopping here for lunch! read more

One of the best fast meal I've had, service is good and friendly. Don't have much more to ask for. Great job guys, besides the place is clean and busy. read more

Amazing sandwiches. They also have ice cream. They have outdoor seating. Friendly and fast service. I just started working at the bank across the road and they were highly recommended by all my coworkers and I can see why. I got the Thanksgiving - Thinly sliced turkey piled on stuffing and cranberry sauce. Yum! So good! It's busy around lunch time but well worth it! Prices are good too! This will definitely be one of my go-to spots in the neighborhood read more

Best sandwhichs you will find in Wellesley. I went here becaise it was recommend so much so I went and git the blt and it was amazing they dobt hold back on the bacon. Then I went to a party a couple days later and tried the isabella and turkey stuffing and cranberry sauce sandwhich. Then when I was going through wellsley and got a blt and ordered the catering of sandwhiches. This is a must have sandwhich shop. read more

The Linden Store - Lg blt with a drink - Delis Near Me - Wellesley, Massachusetts

See all

Love this place!!! It's what every sandwich place should be like. You go in, look up on the menu what you want, or if you craving something, they'll make it, order it and you watch them slice the thin slices on the meat slicer and put it right in your sandwich. Absolutely delicious. I go here all the time in my lunch break! And it's usually cheaper and tastier somehow than subway!!! The only thing that made me give them 4 stars is their hours. Who's getting subs in the morning? But I guess with a family business, it's nice to get out early. read more

The Linden Store - The Isabella - Delis Near Me - Wellesley, Massachusetts

artsy pro pic! Sandwiches are fabu. I come here a lot and enjoy. I do have to say I wish that the menu changed more in addition to the few staple sandwiches. I love the renovation! Good move. Owners are so nice. Hey did I just give you a compliment sandwich!? read more

Go at 11:30am and beat the rush. This store is EXCELLENT! Great food, great service (from Paulo). Get the Macaroni salad by Theresa, its exceptional. Also, try the oreo shake its delicious and pairs well with their sandwiches. Delicious meal!! read more

Delicious Subs and sandwiches! Always consistently fresh and tasty!

The service was fast and friendly at The Linden Store but the sandwich really was not up to par. My "hot italian" was dry, the bread was dense, an overall tasteless experience. If you want a good sandwich go to Tutto Italiano. read more

LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! You will not find a better lunch than at the Linden Store. The bread they use is so fresh and all their sandwiches are amazing! We love the Isabella, Dude Ranch and Turkey Subs. I have also used them for catering and they do an amazing jobs. At our event, I actually heard many people comment how these were the best sandwiches they had ever tasted. The owner and all the people who work there are so incredibly nice! If you are in the area...do not miss this place!!! You will become a regular. read more

Unbelievable sandwiches. Tasted the dude ranch, linden special, and the thanksgiving, all were incredible. Service was super fast, too.

Big things are happening here ,after more than a half a century this place expanded .Now you can spread out, order in comfort,and there is more seating .The same people prepare your subs ,and there is always a friendly greeting when you arrive .I suppose after about 50 years ,they know me .I told one of the owners, with such loyalty ,they ought to name a sandwich after me .Anyway the bottom line is ,they still have outstanding subs ,their rolls are fantastic ,which is half the battle .After all if you have lousy rolls ,you have a lousy sandwich .No the high quality is still there and it has never deviated .This fall I was on Hilton Head Island and there is a franchised sub place called Mikes from NJ . I ate there twice and I was scratching my head with what is so special about this sub ,nothing ,the rolls were very ordinary .I think if Linden Deli ever wanted to franchise they would take off .So as of now it has become a destination especially for Wellesley .It's always good and although the place has changed within the family ,they have kept up the quality .Bottom line if you haven't eaten here you haven't had an outstanding sub. read more

Literally every single sandwich here is a winner. The ones that are sure to please are the Dude Ranch, the Italian, the Hot Italian, and my personal favorite- The Honey Special (Make sure to ask for it on a sub roll!). You really can't go wrong here though so don't be afraid to try something new. And its not just a Lunch place! I've only ever been here a couple times for breakfast, but their breakfast sandwiches do not disappoint. I suggest the Landscaper. read more

I've never been to the Linden Store before and was very impressed. I was overwhelmed by the amount of choices so for today I just went with a boars head ovengold turkey grinder with american cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayo and brown mustard. Let me begin by saying that the only way to eat a grinder is with boar's head meat so that right there made me happy, not to mention the fact that they slice the deli meat fresh for each individual sandwich. The owners were very nice and for as crazy as the atmosphere was in there they seemed to have it all under control. I will definitely be back. read more

I go to this place quite a bit, and by that I mean almost everyday. The sandwiches are delicious and if you are wondering what to get just close your eyes and point to something. Don't let the chaotic ordering process deter you from a really solid sandwich. My goto is always the avocado special but if you can get one of the daily hot specials I recommend that as well, but act fast! They go really quickly. They do serve breakfast as well and I often go in for a bagel and a coffee. The seating is minimal but I usually get carry out. I do not, I repeat, DO NOT try and eat any of these sandwiches while in a car. You will make a mess. The sandwiches are made on real bread. Real bread is chewy and sometimes crunchy which makes it good. Just trust me on this. Enjoy! read more

Seriously, before I'm executed, my last meal will be a Large Hot Italian. Linden Store is the best sandwich in Boston, probably the best I've ever had. Anytime I'm within 100 miles of Wellesley, I go out of my way to stop in. I used to eat here four times a week while I was in school, and many years later they still remember me when I come in. It doesn't get any better than this. read more

great! WE take a sub and picnic at morses pond all teh time! My fav is the turkey and swiss sub with crumbly bacon! The bacon is crispy not soggy (I hate soggy bacon... it tastes like sweaty rubber) with a yummy roll! FANTASTICO! read more

this place used to be 5 stars however it has dropped in my book. Smaller portions + higher prices = 2 star drop in my book. They cut the ends off large subs and have started to give less meat. Check TUTTO ITALIANO read more

Amazing amazing amazing! Best sandwiches I've ever had. Great variety, and made with love. Staff is so kind and although it may be crowded during lunch hour, they get through orders at the speed of light and are friendly and welcoming. To top it all off, it's the most delicious deli food I've ever had. Would recommend to anyone and everyone! read more

Couldn't decide on a single choice.... thank goodness for large appetites! Will definitely stop in again (and again) on future trips! read more

The Linden Store - Delis Near Me - Wellesley, Massachusetts

Very popular lunch spot. Lines are long, but orders are taken quickly and sandwiches are made lightning fast. The Large Isabella is definitely a good choice. Thanks Yelpers for the recommendation! read more

The Linden Store is totally loved by the old-time Townies and contractors...it's a little blue collar beacon in the middle of all that is Swellesley. Every time I've stopped in there's a handful of WWII vets hanging out at the counter, sitting on the stools chatting about whatever they just read on the front of newspaper. Strong Point: Great cold cuts and deli sandwiches! Weak Point: Their breakfast sandwiches sound great (from the menu) but really aren't that much better than what you can get at Dunkin Donuts. Linden's coffee usually isn't all that great. Middle ground: Some of the staff are really nice others seem annoyed at life. read more

The best sub shop in Wellesley and the surrounding suburbs. The bread is awesome and very fresh. Always packed but line goes quickly. Breakfast is served daily. Closed Sunday. read more

The Linden Store is such a special place: family run, amazing sandwiches, and everyone is so friendly. They use the freshest, highest quality ingredients and pile them abundantly on fresh, wonderful bread. My favorites are the Arugula Special and the Isabella. My kids love the Dude Ranch and the Thanksgiving. Whatever you order, you can bet it will be great and served with a smile! read more

I sat at the very busy bar and had soup and a sandwich. the soup was outstanding, should have stuck with that. The sandwich was good, too big for me. This would be a great place to grab and go, was to busy to stay. read more

Best deli in metro west! I have to go to Linden when I go home to Wellesley. It's been a favorite of mine since I was in middle school (almost 20 years!) The menu is big and all the sandwiches and soups are delicious. They're catering is also well done and easy. Such nice people! There's really no downside to this place. read more

The Linden Store is a landmark in Wellesley and has earned its accolades. Love it there - great food to eat there or to go, nice people who work there and great service. It's ALWAYS packed in there - a good sign! read more

As a New Yorker I must say that finding a good deli outside the radius of about 20 miles from NYC is extremely rare. There are exceptions and The Linden Store is one of them. I hit it every chance I'm in town and haven't been disappointed. In addition to the great food, the place has a nice energy to it and a comfortable vibe for eating in. if they were closer to me I'd be a regular! read more

What can i say about Linden hmm... I grew up in Wellesley, so like every Wellesley kid they needed the daily fix of Linden. They have everything from cold cuts, hot subs and even soup. I can still remember the first half day of middle school. Waiting half a hour in line just for my first (Linden Special). All my friends raved about this joint, but i thought to myself, how good can a sandwich be? They use fresh soft bread baked daily. prosciutto mortadella and every other italian meat known to man all for the Linden Special. I recommend you get bacon as well(i think bacon make everything better...even chocolate) FYI- when you get bacon here, its not your breakfast bacon...They give you these giant bacon disks like if god created a pig that was a perfect cylinder just for my sandwich. Anyways...You can get a sandwich anywhere, but you can only get a "Linden Special" in Wellesley read more

I only had 10 dollars to split with my friend. And we decided to get one sandwich to split. Went to order and the guy said what would you like. We said one sandwich because we have 10 only. He said order two and then said what drink do you want . At the end we got two free drinks and sanwiches! read more

Based on sandwiches alone I would give this place 5 stars. The workers are extremely fast at what they do and are friendly as well. Only downside would have to be how confusing it is in there. People don't know where to go or stand. There is no specific way to pay or just pick up an order that was called in. I've only been at lunch time so I can imagine this is during their lunch rush only. A few times my office has ordered from here and a few sandwiches were not correct . Mine wasn't though . I love Gregs arugula special it is delicious. Every ingredient is fresh. read more

Me and my wife (my wife ran the Boston marathon the day before.) we're visiting form Utah. We had one more lunch to get in before we went home. We loved this place, if and when we come back to Boston we will be going back. I got the the dude ranchon on wheat and my wife got the hot Italian, we both loved them. read more

While visiting relatives in Wellesley they took us to The Linden Store. Wow! Really great sandwiches and friendly employees. I had a chicken breast, pesto and mozzarella sandwich. It was large enough to share. Will definitely eat here again next time we're in town. read more

This is a classic, neighborhood gem. They have a deli counter with stools for a small eat in area. Mostly take out of amazing deli sandwiches. Shaved lettuce, thinly sliced tomatoes, great bread and great combinations of sandwiches. Try the dude ranch! I have ordered a bulk take order of sandwiches and it was amazing! read more

I've always thought Linden a bit overrated--I'm not sure what's supposed to separate them from any other deli. They do make good sandwiches, however. read more
