Congressional Liquor Store

My mom was horrified when I told her my favorite lunch is from a liquor store, but it really is! The sandwiches are always good. For breakfast I highly recommend the sausage, egg, cheese, and avocado sandwich on a croissant! For lunch the chicken salad wrap and the chicken club wrap are great! I tried the cheese steak sandwich today, which was so good i HAD to write a review. YUM! They have amazing honey mustard too!
The lady behind the counter is always super friendly, and the food is prepared very quickly!
There is a $ 7 minimum on credit cards, but who doesn’t love an excuse to grab a pack of gum, a drink, or something from their HUGE chip selection?!
PS they also have scratch off tickets and one of my friends won $ 50 from them a few months ago, so that’s cool.

Don’t expect condiments on your sandwich. If you order a bacon egg and cheese with salt pepper ketchup you get a dry bacon egg and cheese. you have to put your own ketchup on it and salt and pepper. If you don’t notice the salt pepper ketchup are on the counter then you get to work like I did and have to eat a dry sandwich. Also if you want to use a credit card good luck they don’t swipe it through they carbon copy it. And if your total is 6.38 they won’t round up I now have 2 packs of gum I don’t need or want.

It’s a small shop they didn’t have what I needed. But the staff was courteous and polite.

This place has the best name of any liquor store around and though I’ve never actually bought liquor there, the deli upstairs is really good. I’ve had their tuna salad and chicken salad wraps and they’re both fantastic. A great mix of spice and creaminess along with nuts, avocado, sprouts, etc.
I really can’t understand why anyone would go to the subway next door besides a crippling ignorance to the existence of this deli.

Congressional Liquors has the best sandwiches! They have excellent ingredients (avocado, an assortment of cheeses, sprouts), and good prices (just bought a wrap for $ 5.69). The menu has about 15 different sandwiches (including 3 vegetarian!) but you can basically create your own if you want. The wait time is never bad, even when they’re busy, and the woman who always makes my sandwich is so nice!
The only reason I gave then 4 stars and not 5 is that they enforce a $ 7 minimum to use a credit card. But, if you plan to buy a drink or side of chips anyway, it’s not really an issue.

Had the tomato mozza sandwich. DELICIOUS

Incredibly friendly staff, good selection, and conveniently by the metro!
