The Bodega

Highly recommended! The sandwiches are amazing!
I had the Ruben and the meat was pilled high And it was so delicious. Walk in and order or call on the phone and pick up. It takes a minute for them to make them but it’s defiantly worth it. Oh the grilled cheese is awesome too.

My husband and I love going to The Bodega! We can easily walk from our house as it’s in the neighborhood in a cute little house. The owners are usually around and super friendly. We love their beer and drink selection and the sandwiches are to die for. They have a standard daily menu, but the specials is where it’s at. You could be waiting up to 15 minutes for your sandwiches, but I promise it’s worth the wait!

Read the review and decide to go. Limited off street parking but no cause for concern; plenty of street parking available in the Noda neighborhood where this is located in Charlotte. The blue house on the corner turned restaurant was very clean inside, had nice music playing, and a high food score posted on the wall. The vey helpful friendly staff had good advice on choosing a sandwich and made changes to a sandwich for us without making faces. Sandwiches and Greek Salad ordered and we sat waiting at a 1950 style Formica kitchen table and chair set to eat! Sandwiches arrived wrapped in brown paper complete with a pickle spear on the side, so so so delicious! Greek Salad was beautifully arranged lettuce tomatoes olives arti hearts and hummus on crustini bread ! Would I go back… YES! If you are nearby stop in for a bite!

Staff was very helpful. They made a special club sandwich that was delicious. I will go back.

What a quaint little old house turned into small deli/​store. Came on this in a super cute neighborhood in the NoDa after a search for lunch.
We were still early for lunch rush, about 11:30a so parking was not an issue. If you go during super busy times drive around for street parking.
We had three in our party and after we ordered the food was ready in about 10 minutes.
1) The Italian stallion sandwich. High quality meats that were heated with great authentic Italian sub flavors. Recommended!!!
2) The club sandwich. The bread was toasted and fresh with the same high quality sliced to order meats. We even made an ingredient change on this due to dietary restrictions and the staff was super accommodating. Delicious !!!
3) The Greek salad. OH MY FLAVORS. This was amazing. So so so fresh. Loaded with tomatoes, olives, feta, artichoke hearts. The dressing was a really tangy mustardy vinaigrette and complemented the salad perfectly.
We all agreed that we would come back here again when in the area.
Health score was 98 if you look for that. Store was really clean.
Staff was so friendly and chill. This made our Saturday trip to Charlotte that much better.
Thanks!!!

So my experience started simply with the ordering process. I came in 100% certain I was going to get their Italian Stallion sandwich, however that changed as soon as I read sandwich special board. I ordered their Muenster Mash sandwich and it was fantastic. It is actually really hard to find a place that does sandwiches really well and The Bodega certainly does. I will be back to try more or their menus soon.

Neat little place. I enjoyed the Caprese sandwich on a lazy Sunday for lunch. Would recommend, has a nice ‘local’ feel.

Best service and sandwiches in town in my humble opinion ! Try the Italian Stallion and some local beer to go before you leave the Noda area. The small deserts are a hit too by the counter when you check out. Wish I had this place in my neighborhood, you guys are so lucky.

Found this place while looking for something quick to eat one night and I was not disappointed. It is tucked away in a street off North Davidson and looks like a corner store that happens to sell sandwiches. You can pick up some craft beer, wine, and other snacks while there. The sandwich I got was delicious! And the guy who helped me was super nice and really laid back. I would definitely recommend this place if you want to grab a quick, satisfying sandwich.

My husband and I love The Bodega. The owners are awesome as well as the rest of the staff. The food there is always consistently delish (we love the caprese sandwich) and they have a great selection of natural snack items. And being able to walk there is a bonus because we love to support local business. Try it– you won’t be sorry!

Great small little place with vintage décor, dope beer selection, dope sandwich menu. Choices hmmmmmm too many. Location easy but don’t blink… Boars head dear lordie. A sandwhich just isn’t a sammich without boars head…

I always used to get the tuna melt which is really good. However, lately, I have been letting the staff make my mind up with the daily specials and they have always been spot on. There are not many people working when I go so I always call in my order and pick it up. I just found out recently by chance that they post their daily specials on facebook so you know exactly what they have.

After placing the order the lady told us she will bring out our meal. We waited about 20 minutes, odd because there was only one guy before us at the shop. She ended up calling us to get the meal; by that time the sandwiches were cold.
The taste was good, I just wish it wasn’t cold. Not fond of cold toasted bread.
I will try again, maybe this was just a mistake and my bad luck.

Everything is so fresh and full of flavor! I have never been disappointed! I’m from NY and love true deli’s, this is certainly comparable!

Great sandwiches. I got the daily special and the hubs got the Reuben. We certainly weren’t disappointed!

If I wouldn’t balloon out to 1,000 pounds I would quit doing groceries and eat at the Bodega for breakfast lunch and dinner every single day.
Yes. Every single day.

Within walking distance of Noda, great sandwich, beer and wine selection and the people working there couldn’t be better. They’re knowledgable and very helpful. Love it here and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a little neighborhood love.

One of the best sandwiches in town in my opinion. Which is saying a lot because I’m usually very critical of sandwiches given how much I love them. The only thing about The Bodega that I find to be a hassle is how slow they are at making sandwiches. Granted I’ve only been here twice (and will certainly be back) but each time it has been super-​slow. I’m not usually one to complain about this but for some reason I can never understand what is actually happening behind the counter that is slowing things down so much. Note however that I still gave this place five stars! The sandwiches are one of those things you say are «worth the wait» believe it or not!
Both experiences I’ve had so far have resulted in awesomely delicious sandwiches that I’m not sure I’d be able to nail if I attempted to make them at home. That’s one of the things great about The Bodega. The sandwiches I’ve had here are the kind I wouldn’t make at home and for that, it is certainly worth the trip. The ingredients are super-​fresh and each sandwich I’ve had were super-​flavorful with great sauces and combination of ingredients.
If you’re looking for one of the better sandwiches in town and aren’t in a rush to get in and out, I highly recommend.

Local, small grocery store with a deli counter. Due to local laws consumption of alcohol on the premises is prohibited (zoned residential). That’s too bad ’cause they’re similar to Common Market which rocks it out. I would rank then as good with lots of headroom to become great. Plan on 10 minutes for them to make your sandwich, even when not busy. A great concept in a growing area. If I lived nearby it would be a place I’d hang out. Reasonable prices and credit cards accepted.

Yummy! I got the Ruben and it is delicious! Turkey instead of corned beef and awesome kraut! Customer service is great. This is an awesome sandwich place in NoDa! Disappointed that I haven’t tried these guys sooner. Can’t wait to go back!
