A Great Deal????????

by anonymousbosch at Citysearch

I see that the last review was in 2008 and feel that perhaps Columbine is resting on its laurels - ' A fit description of the Smoked Turkey sandwich at Columbine that I had - 'a great deal of bread, a great deal of lettuce..., and a little meat (with a whiff of dressing.)

Hands down my favorite sandwich shop in the neighborhood. The chocolate cherry cookies and the malibu vegetarian sandwich are the best! Definitely worth the excruciating lunch time wait.

  • Pros: incredible food
  • Cons: long lines

columbine rules!

by philli1 at Citysearch

they have the best soups! and cookies! the food is always super fresh and thoughtfully prepared. like if you get the tuna salad big salad, they put the tuna in a little red cabbage leaf so it doesn't drip all over everything. or if you get the fruit cup, all the fruit is carefully selected, like if you made a fruit salad for yourself. i guess it is kinda pricey though.

  • Pros: delicious!
  • Cons: a little pricey

tasty sandwiches and soups in tribeca

by cochondelait at Citysearch

one of my favorite lunch places in tribeca. delicious sandwiches and soups with fresh herbs and ingredients. a bit on the pricey side but it feels like they put a lot of care into the food. well worth the wait on the lunch line which moves pretty quickly because they have a figured out a system. the cowboy cookies are great -- yummy chunks of chocolate with oatmeal bits.

  • Pros: tasty lunch sandwiches
  • Cons: long line, pricey

Foods so good the phone's always busy..

by aniiya at Citysearch

Daily sandwich speacials are great and more inventive than standard soup and sandwich places. Calls to place an order for delivery are often met with a busy phone signal (who knew busy signals still existed?). When you finally get through, more often than not, you are then placed on hold for another couple of minutes.
