They were great when they were in the old district the tobacco warehouse district. They were really good. Look at their sandwiches now though yesterday I got a sandwich a BLT would you believe they forgot the bacon and this is the lettuce they put on the sandwich.

Delicious sandwiches served up in this swanky, upscale gift shop. They don't skimp on the sandwich fillings, either. Very bright and has plenty of outdoor seating as well as indoor seating.

the best sandwiches in the triangle, hands down. I love no. 11 (egg salad), no. 22 (turkey and havarti - pictured), and no. 23 (grilled pimento cheese - pictured).
they are absolute whoppers and always so fresh and so tasty. the staff are all very lovely and even during the lunch rush the sandwiches are quick to come out. -
When I first visited the store I was on break from work and was just browsing. The store has everything from food to books, perfume and home trinkets like candles, wine and stationaries. I can easily get lost in this store for an hour or two; it's the perfect dilly-dally spot for a girl lol. I had lunch recently and ordered the black Forest Ham & Swiss and a Cinnamon Roll. When I say this sandwich was everything! It was STACKED and the perfect diagonal cut. I was so ready to eat it I didn't even get a chance to take a photo but trust me it's good! And don't even get me started on the cinnamon roll! A soft flaky pastry with the perfect amount of icing glazed on top. If you ever want a nice deli sandwich, I recommend Parker & Otis!

The staff was friendly and happily answered questions. I got the No. 29 and added turkey. I was shocked at the size of the sandwich! Well worth the money and it was delicious! They also have day olds available sometimes! I went on a Saturday around Noonish and the shop was busy. I opted to take it to go because of the crowd but things seemed to be flowing
