Olive's used to be good. Went to get muffins and cookies for my parents' anniversary today. Bit into the chocolate chip muffin and was like what's crunchy? Egg shells. There were egg shells baked into the muffins. Called the phone number to ask for a manager and they said catering answers all calls but since there is a problem, they can help me. Took the phone to someone else and she said like literal egg shells?! That's so weird. Can you bring them back? I don't live in Princeton. Gas prices are high. You've got to be kidding. I should've just left when they tried to add more than I ordered and overcharge me by $7.
Great food,fairly priced,sizeable portions. Definitely a return trip is on the menu!
First impression, is that if you can order online, I would if you are getting multiple things. There seems to be a different spot to order depending on what you're getting (greek entrees vs salad vs sandwich vs bakery). Staff was very nice though. I liked the spanakopita. It was a little different than I'm used to, more cheese and less phyllo layers. Though they may need to use finer salt or rinse their spinach more as there was a touch of grit. The chicken salad and baklava were both good, but not the best I've ever had. Overall, I would go again.
Please some can anyone speak English that can take my order over 30mins for a basic pork roll and cheese sandwich that was cold. I’ll never go back Adios amigos
Love the sandwiches. Unfortunately, they are inconsistent with having things in stock. (Great cookies, super sad when they aren't available). It was still worth the gamble to call and order, but they have now canceled curbside pick up. Parking is impossible. I can only order here if I can commit to driving around for 30 minutes to park and pick up my food. Won't be able to do work lunches here anymore.
Amazing selection and sandwiches everytime I go, I don’t think I’ll ever get a hoagie anywhere else ever again. Highly recommend their chicken salad, Italian hoagie and their tuna salad!
I would give a negative rating if i could. This was the state of the sandwich I just got this morning. I am already home and don't have the patience to go back and get a new one. The sandwich is totally burnt and soggy-- it also cost me $7 for this swampy mess. Don't waste your time and money here, I cannot believe the guy really packed the sandwich like this. Its visibly burnt to a crisp and mushy to touch. Absolutely horrible.
Olives is a family owned catering and takeout food deli located in the heart of downtown Princeton New Jersey, on Witherspoon Street near Princeton University. It’s a great place to grab a delicious lunch or contract for catering services. The choices seem endless and the food is fresh and delicious. You will find all types of American food favorites along with Greek specialties. They have a wide selection of soups, salads, entrees and sandwiches along with healthy choices and delectable desserts including their famous cookies and brownies. The food is homemade and the staff is very friendly, efficient and attentive. They also have outside seating on the sidewalk.
Received this for lunch from Olives, chicken, green beans and wild rice. Amazingly good. It was A bit cold, not their fault, so I can only imagine how it would taste hot. Worth eating at again. Looking forward to the cookie as well. Too big for me to eat at once ?
Very unorganized. I have called in big orders various times in the past, given a time frame, and when I arrive (after given time) I still have had to wait sometimes an hour to get my order that they supposedly ‘lost’ or are still working on. The staff and food are okay but this place is definitely not worth an hour wait.
