Two thumbs up, waaaay up! Great place for a sandwich.

They are so nice and accommodating! They remember my name and order even when I haven't stopped in for weeks :)

Homestyle food and atmosphere in the downtown core that is worth a stop. I ordered take out a chicken salad sandwich for lunch. Choice btw brown or white bread and I got the works (lettuce, tomato & cucumber.) The sandwich was perfectly wrapped in plastic with the toothpicks to hold things together. A side rippled original Ruffles chips in a little baggy was included too.

Very cheap hole in the wall deli, however, they have lots on the menu and the prices are very cheap and reasonable. They're cash only. My only issue is the language barrier and getting my initial order request wrong 'cause of the barrier, however, after all was said and done my stomach was happy on the cheap.

My new favourite lunch place near my office. Even on my third visit the lady said "oh my, good to see you again". Very unassuming, quiet, chill. I get the sandwich and soup each time which is always good quality, consistent, and quite inexpensive. They are always very quick with the order and taking payment. Nice little place; try it out.

Always a warm and friendly greeting at Edelweiss. The staff are wonderfully cheerful, the atmosphere is casual and relaxed, the sandwiches are deliciously good value and I really should treat myself to their breakfast one day. For a warm welcome and a pleasant all-round experience, this is a gem!

Typical deli/sandwich food, it's been awhile since I ate here, but walked by recently to see they still have a casual relaxed atmosphere, with lots of spacious seating so you can get some work done, quite quiet after the lunch rush.

Seems to be here for decades.

Located right in the CBD.

They do offer delivery too.

Helen & Bob are such kind, happy proprietors and truly care about their patrons. I order very little food here, as I'm often in a hurry, and I don't frequent the shop like I used to but they still remember my name.

They make every random drop-in for a rum ball worth it!!

PS - Great rum balls!

If I worked downtown, this would surely be one of my rainy day hiding spots for lunch! Indeed, the owners greet most patrons by name and even if they don't know you, you are welcomed and treated like a guest. I can't go all the way and give it higher than 3-stars because to be honest, it wouldn't be for everyone. However, I was thoroughly charmed.

I was encouraged to take my time and think... more

Wow - I'm only the 2nd person to review this place - unbelievable!
This is the best little sandwich spot you'll find in the downtown core. Bob and Helen own and run the shop. Bob remembers every single customer's name (honestly remarkable). You can go there once, tell Bob you name and then go back 6 months later and he'll remember your name. They have a soup and sandwich deal everyday. It's a... more

I can't believe there's not a ton of reviews for this gem. This has to be the friendliest breakfast joint in Vancouver. It's like a small town diner in the heart of a big city. The owner/operators Bob and Helen know virtually all of their patrons by first name. The menu choices are cheap and tasty. Although I live in Victoria and only get here once or twice a year, they know my name, what I... more
