Converse Deli 551 East Main Street, Spartanburg, SC 29302

"The food is so good! Always has been, think it always will be! One of my favorite spots from med school and my wife went to visit again for old times sake and it did not disappoint! I got the special from the board that day (corned beef Cuban) and highly suggest they make it a regular menu item it was SO GOOD! If you go and it’s an option for you, get it! Love that they use locally grown produce from farmers in the area. Certainly hope they stick around, because we’ll definitely be back!"

"My favs are the quiche, chicken salad croissants and different teas. But all food is good. Friendly staff, good food, quick service. Dining inside and out."

"In the corner of Converse Corners of E. Main Street, you will find an excellent sandwich shop. My wife and I visited there for the first time on a recommendation. The sandwich selection varies from the in-house creations to the requisite choices at any deli worth its salt. We made a selection from both categories and shared. In the picture below you will see the War Eagle that was in the process of consumption and next to it the classic Reuben. While the War Eagle was interesting and flavorful, the Reuben was on point and will be on the reorder list. You order at the counter and are presented with the ubiquitous digital request for a gratuity prior to service. Chips and a pickle accompany the sandwich. Pricing, I find, is a bit above market, but the food is excellent, and the staff is personable."

"I definitely want to support this place. I know what a struggle they must have in today's economic climate with rising costs particularly affecting the restaurant industry. I regret to give anything higher than 3 stars at this point. The food was just.... mediocre. I bought a sandwich for $11 which I assumed would be so hearty it would feed 2 people. But upon getting it home, it was just a regular sized sandwich with not much meat on it at all. It needed at least twice as much meat. Esp. for that price. I tried the bread pudding. It was not nearly moist enough. It felt dry, and nothing about it was redeeming. I couldn't eat more than a few bites of it. I will likely return sometime soon, and I hope to find a better experience so I can raise my review. With all the places offering sandwiches these days, you really have to be firing on all cylinders to stand out from the crowd. I'm rooting for this place to do it. The service was definitely friendly and competent."

"Lunch goes until 5pm and the lunch menu does not have as much as the dinner menu. The place is dark and the tables are sticky. Do not plan your meal from the website because it is not accurate. When I ask about a soup that was on the website, the cook was firm to the waitress about they do not serve that no more. The tomato basil soup was very grainy and hard to stomach, but the Cuban was pretty good."
