★★★★★ 5.0 MacKinsey M · Aug 2025

There are not many vegan options in Watkins Glen. Ironically, went to a meat deli for a delicious veggie sandwich. Great portions/price. Good selection of sides and drinks. Was going to return the next day, but they were closed even though Google said they were open.. Clean. The older lady who helped us was not very friendly!

Omg! Best Philly cheese steak I've ever had! My friend also got the same thing and definitely savored every bite! The sub roll was perfect and the meat was amazing no chewy fat. And it came out super fast! The staff was amazing and very kind. Prices are also very reasonable ! Will definitely be returning!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Watkins Glen Photography · May 2025

The Holy Cow Deli in Watkins Glen has become a regular stop for me, not just for the reliably fresh and delicious food, but also for its convenient location whether I'm heading out for a day of photography or just need a great meal. Their sandwiches, subs, and salads are always top-notch; you really can taste the quality ingredients. It's the kind of place where once you've had a sandwich from here, it's hard to go anywhere else! They're also incredibly friendly and clearly a part of the local community, as evidenced by their monthly breakfast for Veterans. It's worth noting that The Holy Cow can get quite lively, and when it's really busy, the noise level can make conversation a bit challenging, which is fairly typical for popular spots. Parking can also be a bit tricky during peak times

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Gordon Shaffer · Jun 2024

Following our visit at Watkins Glen SP, we were hungry and heard about this eatery just a short distance down the road exiting town. Our dining experience was a little confusing. We ordered our sub and salad at the front counter. Then found a table and waited for the food to arrive. (There's outdoor seating as well.) My wife's salad had a nice bed of greens but way too much chicken for her taste. The 6" Seneca Club sub looked impressive, but was a chore to finish. It had too many types of meats packed together to savor, and a sub roll that lacked freshness and distinction. However, the twice cooked seasoned french fries were mad good! Eating those crispy fries w Heinz ketchup was pure joy in my mouth.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Rosemary Russell Bennett · Jul 2025

Sandwich was delicious/great, I had the Rachel. A teenage girl waited on me. She wasn't very friendly, in fact I didn't get a welcome feeling when I stepped in. Was disappointed that when I grabbed a bag of chips the girl didn't tell me my sandwich came with chips. Thanks. The seating area and restrooms are very clean. It was very hot outside and it was very nice and cool inside.
