Gretchen’s Place

This is a solid choice for a quick and simple lunch spot. I got a sandwich and soup lunch combo with a can of soda for less than $ 10. Sandwich was very tasty and chicken soup was good. Come early to avoid the line.

These guys are awesome! Great breakfast and lunch.
Fast and friendly service!
Price is also amazing for how expensive Bothell has become!
Keep up the great work!

This is a pretty cute and small sandwich/​soup/​snacks place. Nestled in with the various commercial buildings around the Bothell Canyon Park area, this is a place where you can grab a quick bite to eat without much waiting.
For the food that’s served here, it’s mainly sandwiches, soups, salads and other smaller things like pastries, snacks, drinks, yogurt and etc. I came here a couple of times for lunch and never had to wait more than 10 minutes or so for food. For some of the items I tried, I did have a sandwich, some sort of beef soup and a burger (Friday Specials). The soup I had was average, nothing too fancy but simple and flavorful. The sandwich was pretty fresh (stuffed full of various veggies) but nothing outstanding. Sandwiches are customized to your picking unless you’re choosing a hot sandwich that come with set ingredients. As for the burger, that thing was huge! Couldn’t really finished that in one setting. For the «meals,» you do get the option to pair a whole/​half sandwich with either salad, soup, chips and a drink choice of soda or water.
Prices here are pretty comparable to most of the other food places in the area (average meal $ 8−10+) and overall, I do recommend this place if you’re searching for something quick and simple to eat. The staff here is pretty friendly and there’s a small dining area just outside the shop.

Great small business that supports a lot of the near by companies. I had a turkey on rosemary and the bread was great. I really enjoyed the mustard with mustard seed and lettuce lightly tossed in dressing. Those are the small details that make a great sandwich. I’ll plan on going back next time I’m in the area.

My office orders from Gretchen’s for our weekly meeting at least once a month. Me and about half of our office orders the veggie sandwich because it’s just so delicious. They also have a good selection of chips and beverages, so it’s perfect to have nearby in the corporate park.

I love this place, I can’t begin to describe the great customer service I experience here time and time again. I’ve been coming here for years since I work right across the street and I plan to continue doing so even after my company moves out of the business park. The food is great and you really can’t go wrong with whatever you order, but I think it’s the exceptional service that makes customers so loyal.

I would give this «restaurant» a 0 star review if it was possible. To start this review off, let me tell you that we ordered 3 very basic things. A BLT, a Caesar Salad, and a pulled pork sandwich. From the moment we walked in to this sketchy office building, we felt very uncomfortable. The couple was eyeballing us awkwardly as if they were desperate for our business. The manager suggested 4 things, two of which we ordered. (BLT and Pulled pork.) It felt like we were eating out of a middle school cafeteria, but a middle school cafeteria has a more comfortable atmosphere. I swear to god the owners bribe the customers to write good reviews on Unilocal.I don’t see how anyone could be satisfied with this place. I could not stop laughing while at the restaurant because I honestly thought I was dreaming. It seemed like something out of a comedy movie. This is no exaggeration I live in a bad area in Honolulu and this restaurant is horrible compared to some of the shitty places I’ve eaten.

A great little corporate coffee/​sand which shop that delivers to my office.
Friendly service & they remember your order with a little chit chat.

A hidden gem — Friendly, fast, clean, delicious, good prices, free delivery!
Their hot Italian Sandwich is soo good! Mushroom soup on Wednesday too!

Fantastic spot for lunch and breakfast!

Really good stuff going on here — super cheap, super fast, decently healthy, did I mention super cheap?

Great food. Fast, cheap and friendly service. I eat lunch here all the time.

This is a cut above your average office park deli. I love a Caffe Vita latte and homemade quiche in the morning or a fresh, high-​quality ingredient sandwich using Essential Bakery bread at lunch. These guys are super speedy and just nice, friendly folks on top of that!
Just one thing I wish they had in case they are reading — homemade side salads like potato, pasta, pea.

I work couple miles away but my friend took me here the other day to have lunch. Its hidden amongst a row of office buildings who they mainly cater for. there sandwiches are filling and fresh. They have the best clam chowder I’ve had in many years, seriously good! The owners are the most friendly people you will meet. If you are in the Bothell area during your lunch, this is a great place to check out.

I’ve never met Gretchen, but I suspect she must be pretty cool… this place is a gem!
The food: Quality takeout breakfast and lunch fare. I formed a daily Caffe Vita habit after discovering the staff knew their way around an espresso machine. On days when I didn’t bring a lunch, their salads were a reliable (and tasty) Plan B that only cost about $ 5.
The staff: Incredibly friendly and helpful. Warm fuzzies all around.
Since moving jobs, I’ve truly missed this daily ritual. If you find yourself in the neighborhood, make sure to stop in!

We love this place. The food is excellent and affordable. Plus they deliver and are super speedy. Actually have never been to the restaurant, but they will deliver for just one person or a group. Today my friend & I had their bacon & spinach quiche & a house salad for about 7 bucks each. delivered! Can’t beat it! Thank you!
