Central Liquor

Best sandwiches in the island. This place has everything: classic convenience store, fantastic deli (with a wide range of options), almost any beer-wine-spirit you could want, and great customer service. This is a place that I frequent when in the area.

While Central Liquor looks much understated, it has a bunch to offer. As you can see from my inside pic, it is fully stocked. They not only have convenience food, but a good selection of wine and spirits. This is a great option for vacationers from buying only restaurant alcohol. On previous visits, we have purchased sandwiches there. They were a good alternative, at a good price point for a quick bite. With a bit of planning, you buy a few items here and take them to the park at the very end of Orange and enjoy the ocean breeze and City sky line.

Sandwiches were delicious. The service was super quick. The bread was soft, along with the flavor being on point. Will be back.

great sandwiches, friendly staff - perfect for the beach, concert in the park, lunch for your movers, etc

It's rare I go to a liquor store and it's the first time going to one before noon. However I found this place on Yelp and apparently delis in liquor stores is a thing here. I planned to grab a breakfast sandwich but came just before noon so ended up getting a lunch one. $11.49 for the California on toasted sourdough. * It was noted as a favorite and came recommended by the man behind the counter. He was friendly asked if it was our first time. $4+ for a smedium sized bag of kettle potato chips$7 for small bottle peach soju (had to get for later after I spied it)$.10 for plastic bag (forgot to grab mine). Overall, reasonably priced for Coronado. I perused the adult beverages and prices looked reasonable too.The sandwich was solid - it had a good mix of ingredients (deli sliced turkey, bacon bits, avocado, sprouts). Totally reminded me of a Beach bum sandwich at Jimmy John's before they got rid of the sprouts. Cons: No receipt given (I'm a weirdo and like to have one). No prices displayed on the chips and some other snacks, but I did see a QR code under each kind so maybe I was supposed to scan and look it up. Suggestion: Provide a napkin with purchase of a sandwich

Great place for sandwiches. Had a few here. Got the pastrami yesterday and an amazing taste to it. Great flavor on all sandwiches Customer service really great

This is hands down my favorite place to go to for lunch!! Their sandwiches are always delicious!! They have thee best Italian in town and the giant hot pastrami is a great second best!! the staff is always friendly in greeting me everytimethey see me, in taking my order and making the sandwich exactly the way I want. Their selections are plenty, between chips, sodas, beers, wines and whiskey - you'll never go home thirsty! Or hungry for that matter. They have a seating area inside and out so you can take a few minutes out of your day to enjoy your lunch.

Very disappointed in the quality and amount of meat on my sandwich this last visit. Me and my friend both ordered sandwiches. I got the pastrami and he got the johns secret with double meat. We open our sandwiches and wow there was barely any pastrami pretty much 1 slice rolled to make it look bigger. My friends sandwiche that was suppose to have extra meat only had 3 slices. Not worth it for 11 for my sandwich and 17 for my friends.

When and if I get to heaven, my 1st question is going to be 'When's lunch?'. The 2nd question will prolly be, 'Are there sandwiches here like Central Liquor?' Why is it that liquor stores still make the best to-go deli sandwiches? Let's leave DZ Akins out of the fight. They are in a different league. I will traverse the Coronado Bridge in a hailstorm of Nazi bullets for a ham, salami, and American on a kaiser roll. People, this is a sandwich worthy of a salute. All cradled in the tangiest mayo n fixins. They have those dark poppy seeds you see in all the commercials but can't seem to find in waking life, providing your fingers with a lizard-like grip on the meaty-beast you're about to devour. Underestimating the power of quality bread in this situation is criminal. I appreciate the small things in these uncertain times. Like a good, working-class sandwich. Suffice it to say, they're open, and Coronado is a ghost town right now. And you can have it all to yourself. Is a few extra miles gonna kill ya? The boardwalk, the sky, a view of downtown, and a sandwich the Gods would envy.

Ordered the chicken bacon ranch sandwich. It was delicious, the chicken was tender and moist, great flavor and bacon was crispy. The bread was a bit hard on the ends, but is overall good.
