A good deli and grocery store is located across from Boston Common. It has a deli with freshly prepared foods. Lambert's Marketplace is the only grocery store in this area so it doesn't have anything to compete against, which is a bad thing. High prices but they can get away with it. There's no reason they have to do anything because of the lack of competitors so they can also overcharge.It has some good things about it. One cool thing is the milkshake and smoothie machine. There's lots of flavors to choose from, and you see it made in front of you. Many people come here for the deli. There's a lot on the big menu. Lots of cheese. Sandwiches are okay but these are small portions. It usually has a salad bar. The selection on this isn't good so it's not recommended. Poor quality produce and it can also smell bad. The prices are very annoyingly high. Good for the fast convenience. It otherwise is only just okay. There's a good choice of organic and vegetarian friendly products.

We got the number 22 sandwich for about $10. It was good, but nothing to write home about.

Stopped by for a pack of the beer five minutes before closing and the cashier had such a fun personality. He made some thing as mundane as a beer run very enjoyable. One of the many experiences of friendliness and welcome that we have had in Boston! Glad we chose the shop to stop by. Also, it was pretty convenient next to the park and our hotel. The other shops nearby closed earlier.

Pretty nice selection of snacks and drinks, plus they sell booze, but I was very turned off by the fact that the cashier kept saying ni hao to me. I was born in America man.

I really love the vibe of this place and the offerings. The salad and fruit bars were my faves! I'm giving it 3/5 stars, since it's self-serve style without any COVID protocols or safety measures in place. For example, gloves at the food stations for sharing tongs is a no-brainer.Anyhow, I had some fruit and a salad and was very pleased.

I'm so excited to have found this place! I've been going to UDG in the Downtown Crossing area for my salads, but decided to try Lambert's for a change (gotta spice things up in my 9-5 routine life). The salad bar is plentiful. They don't chop your salad like they do at UDG, but you can (attempt to) do it on your own with the plastic utensils and make a game out of it. You will fail, but it'll be hilarious and make for an entertaining lunch hour. Trust me. The salad bar is $5.99/lb. and you can add on avocado and/or various proteins (chicken, eggs, etc.) all at the $5.99/lb. cost. Most places will charge $2.00+ for these items so I appreciate them keeping it at the same cost (woo...equality!). This place can get pretty busy during lunch. It seemed like their sandwich line was pretty long (note to self: try sandwich next time), which must mean they are pretty good. I'll definitely be back!

I only got a Cajun Turkey sammie for takeout and was pretty pleased. Very fresh bread and ingredients, with a generous portion of turkey. Prices are fair for downtown Boston.

This review is mainly about the salad bar.I've been coming to Lambert's for their salad bar for several years because A) they've had things that others don't usually carry; B) everything has been very fresh; and C) they had a great Greek dressing and fresh pita bread that really take the finished salad up a notch. I also highly recommended it to my coworkers because there are a lot of salad bars around and this one was notably better than most. I would have given it all 5 stars a couple of years ago.However, I noticed in the past year or so that these things have suffered so I haven't been back as often as I used to. Today I went back to give it another try... still disappointed.The salad bar looks newer, structurally, but the contents of the bins are not as fresh as they used to be. I prefer darker greens so usually grab mixed greens but it was terribly wilted and looked like it was starting to get slimy. There was also a bin of arugula (or something similar) - same problem. I ended up only using spinach, which I still had to pick around to avoid slimy leaves. There is no more avocado and the carrots & purple cabbage were really dry, as was the pita bread - I like to be able to make a little salad pouch with it, but it wouldn't hold together at all. Also, they've changed up the dressings and the new Saratoga brand Greek dressing is subpar compared to the former creamy "no name" Greek dressing. I've eaten about half of what I was able to cobble together and am already starting to feel "not so great" so I'm going to end up throwing away the rest of this $10 salad so that I don't have to worry about having "an issue" on the train home this afternoon. I don't know if there's new management, vendors, or if the salad bar just isn't a priority any longer, but I don't think I can recommend them as I used to do. Also, there are a lot of not-so-clean, sketchy-looking people (non-employees) in the store, scratching their lottery tickets, or just hanging around blocking the already-tight layout and their proximity to the open-bin salad bar is enough to be a turnoff from making a meal out of it, too.

I stopped by here last weekend because my friends and I were getting hungry and Lambert's was convenient. What a great find! One friend had a sandwich and said was great, and the other enjoyed her pizza.I had food from the hot bar, spaghetti, meatballs, and chicken wings. Hey,I was hungry, okay? ;-) Anyway, I kept on thinking about those wings and ended up coming back for more today!

When I worked downtown, I used to eat here regularly. The salad bar was fresh, clean, and always well stocked. The store was spotless. But sadly, the place has gone seriously downhill. The place is filthy, the salad bar - at 12:30pm on a weekday - was depleted, with bits of food spilled everywhere. The floor hasn't been well-cleaned is what looked like years, and the walls, paint, and everything were indicative of a place that's about to close its doors. Maybe the manager or the owner will read this and refurbish the store. But until they do, It's just too gross to eat there again.
