Purebread Deli

Took an über from the city to handle some business at UPS, walked over to this place afterwards as I saw it on the way. Extremely clean interior and its very vibrant inside which helps to make up for the usual gloomy cloudy weather we have in DE. Enjoying the pup theme on the walls, how can you not be happy surrounded by puppies? Ordered a sunrise breakfast sandwich with bacon on a English muffin, came out quickly and the quality of the food was on point the coffee was good too, got the hazelnut since I’m a complete sucker for hazelnut. The staff is very friendly, you can tell a lot of locals come here since some of the patrons seemed to know each other as they walked in. Oh, and can’t complain with free wi-​fi. I find it hilarious they name the lunch items after different dog breeds… just as long as no dogs are actually in my food!

Great sandwich with quick and friendly service. It helps that I’m a dog fan and they appear to have some connection to animal rescues.

Sit in here every day before work for hours. Very cozy and love the free WiFi which I’m writing this review with right now. Not sure why they play reggae stoner music in a rich old white person neighbourhood but it doesn’t matter

Great spot for lunch. This place is affordable and has quality food. The chicken noodle soup and spinach salad was very good. I will definitely be coming back for more.

I have been here a million times (well…almost) and it is always great food, bread, salads, and sandwiches. But the reason I really love it here is because it is so clean and everyone is so friendly. You are greeted when entering and thanked when leaving; if it is not too busy, they don’t call your order number but they just bring it to you. Simple stuff right? — but they do it so consistently and so well (and so few other places do so). Salads and veggies are fresh, soups are tasty and hot, bakery items are delicious. It is a great place for bfast or lunch!

Oh I love this place. I recently discovered it in the back of my neighborhood and straightaway fell in love with their Pumpkin Latte. It’s just awesome!
The ambience is good, staff is friendly and I’m writing this while I’m sitting here this beautiful morning. A must try for all sandwich and coffee lovers for a weekend brunch!

Purebread Deli is a Delaware staple! A great, casual place for lunch with filling options. They have delicious sandwiches, bagels, soups and salads, and everything is very affordably priced. It gets very busy during lunch time hours but the service is very quick. Their breakfast options are great as well, and they are open by 6:30 AM.

Great lunch combo of half a salad, half a sandwich. Amply filling and a good way to enjoy multiple tastes in two courses. Service here is excellent, and the youthful staff clean everything and everywhere that I could see with great conscientiousness. One note — the a/​c is very effective, and my T-​shirt was not quite a match for it! So I ate my lunch outdoors, and I was glad I did — it’s nice there at the end of the strip mall, near some bushy birch trees that soften the pavement and parking-​lot feel.

Honestly thought this was going to be an organic bakery and deli but turns out it’s a play on words. Walking in I was so confused with why all the sandwich names were dog breeds but then I realize Pure Bred! All the dog pictures around the café give it a nice touch.
Anyways, solid lunch. For $ 9.29 the breeders combo comes with your choice of two: sandwich, soup, salad. The portion was perfect as I got the Jack Russel and Cobb salad. The sandwich had juicy white meat chicken while the salad was filled with chicken, bacon, bleu cheese, red onion, and half an avocado!
Not sure if they have a side menu for your furry friend but it would be awesome if they do!

Awesome place! would go in the mornings to study and after I placed my order I was in the habit of sitting down with every intention of getting back up to retrieve my order, but they always brought it to my table! The staff was incredibly friendly and polite and I loved their food. Could not go wrong with their breakfast items!

Stopped in Purebread today for the first time and was very impressed! Heard for a while now that they have really good soups and sandwiches. I got the Maryland crab soup and it was BOMB! Huge chunks of crab and lots of tasty vegetables — very authentic. Also got the chicken salad sandwich on a croissant, it was a bit more on the mayo-​y side than I usual like but still very good nonetheless. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I’ll be back!

Very solid menu. Friendly staff. Clean and bright inside. Great outdoor patio to be with your pooch. I agree with another reviewer that the interior reminds me of panera. Since I like Panera that works for me.
I also agree with another viewer that there wasn’t as much meat on my Saluki (AKA French Dip) as usual but I’m one of those who doesn’t like a lot of meat so I was fine with this.

Stopped in for a quick lunch after a great morning at the Winterthur. My mom and I split the Chihuahua sandwich — the turkey is so tender and juicy, the bread was flavorful and the veg on the sandwich was super fresh. The other ladies with us had salads (a Cobb and one with walnuts and blue cheese that I didn’t catch the name of) but they were a great size (not too big, not too small) and the lettuce and veg were fresh and crisp. We all splurged on a muffin, which were recommended by other posters. So glad we did! They warmed it for us and it was so tasty. When we come back to the area, this will be on our list of places to stop for lunch for sure.

This place is amazing. It is similar to Panera but the quality of the food is so much better. They offer a ½ soup, sandwich or salad combo. I ordered the Cobb (which was outstanding) and a sandwich with prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, pesto and peppers. It was really tasty.
The lunch line was out the door but the line moved quickly and orders came out efficiently. I wish more locations would open. It is top notch. Lots of healthy options.

Good Food at a Decent Price with an outside patio so you can take your pup… I’m in!
The menu is like any other smaller breakfast /​lunch place, just with a dog theme.
What is to be noted here is that they do the food well.
Good Quality Food + Fast Execution of Order + Well Training Staff = A Success.
They know what they are doing in the front of the house when taking your order and it carries over to the back of the house where your food is prepared.
Just a good place to eat good food at a good price.
Keep up the great work PureBread!

I LOOOOVE this place. I recently started working in Delaware, ok not so recent, 2 years ago. but, anyway, I’m just so glad my co-​worker introduced me to this cute deli/​sandwich café! All their sandwiches are named after dog breeds (purebread, get it get it?) And they’re all so good. I particularly like the «Chihuahua» especially when pressed into a panini. Although I’m not fond with this breed of puppy, the sandwich is delicious! Read the ingredients and you won’t deny it either. I also love the «golden retriever» too (and that breed too.) Soups and salads are wonderful, particularly lobster bisque, mushroom bisque, and broccoli cheddar. I like creamy soups, can you tell? The caprese salad is great with balsamic glaze, and pesto! (huge portion for just half a salad). Everything here tastes fresh and well made. yum yum yum.
Puppy photos everywhere, and there’s even a slideshow of photos of puppies and dogs that may have been sent in by owners. So cute!
Definitely recommend to everyone around here (and I have been spreading the word). Wished Philly could open this in place of Cosi.
Ranking of well known deli chains: Purebread over Panera over Cosi. (they wouldn’t allow me to use the «greater than» character –_–

Very disappointed. Although I’m usually not impressed with this chain. Our sandwiches hardly had any meat on them and for the price of our lunch they have to be making a killing. I think they could afford to add a couple of more slices of meat.
Most of the soups seem to be thickened with cornstarch or something, they have a gelled texture to them.
Won’t be back anytime soon :(

This place gets better with each visit. Been here about 8 times since my FIRST visit and review and its just as good if not better. The mushroom soup is unreal. Everything is so fresh, the staff is almost always on point, and its clean. YES!

I enjoy occasional visits to this establishment either early in the mornings or for some lunches. I find that this location is the most inviting of metro Wilmington Purebreads, possibly because of its interior and exterior seating and that it’s adjacent to a wooded area in bucolic Greenville.
Their muffins are always fresh and a highlight, although I wonder if they really need to cost $ 2.25. I’ve found that their drinks can often overdo the flavor, as with a recent vanilla latte frappé that quickly turned into a frozen drippy mess, and a flavored latte that wore its taste too strong.
However, their combined sandwich and salad, or soup and salad, orders offer extremely generous portions for modest prices — much better than the equivalent at Panera Bread. It’s very easy to make two meals out of them!
