Parking & Pickup
Getting Here
We're on the Strip — parking can be tight, but we've made it easy to grab your order and go.
Street Parking
Metered street parking is available along Melrose Pl and surrounding UT Strip streets. Spaces typically turn over quickly on regular days — arrive a few minutes early to grab a spot.
Quick Pickup
Park directly in front with hazard lights on for a quick 5-minute grab-and-go. This is common practice on the Strip for fast pickups. Order ahead by phone to speed things up.
Gus's Good Times Deli is not responsible for parking violations, citations, towing, or traffic issues while parked in front or near the store. This is a customer accommodation only, not a reserved space. Comply with all local parking laws and signage.
Game Day Parking
On home Vol game days, the Strip fills up hours before kickoff. Come early, find your spot, and get in line — just like every other Vol. Nearby parking garages and lots may charge premium game-day rates.
Gus's Good Times Deli has no affiliation with, control over, or responsibility for nearby parking facilities, game-day traffic management, or third-party lot pricing. All parking decisions are the sole responsibility of the customer.
