50 Best Sandwich Shops in Vancouver

“I'm still thinking about the meatball hoagie! The toasted sesame bread alone won me over. The combination of arugula, sesame, cheese and meatballs was wonderful. And the portions are very generous, my partner and I shared a sandwich and soup.“

“My favourite sandwich shop in Vancouver. HUGE portions, delicious flavours. The owner is super personable and friendly. Always a must when we’re in Vancouver! I think about sandwiches from this place almost daily. I drive an hour and a half into downtown Vancouver just for this place.“

“I forgot to take a picture of the sandwich before I ate it. Unfortunately it was just too good to put down. I just had their expertly done Friday french dip and was compelled to write a review for this little downtown Vancouver gem. I normally stop in for the their black angus reuben sandwich (in my opinion one of their specialties), but had a change of heart. Not only is the owner taking your order but he’s preparing everything in house as well (with help I imagine). From the gourmet pickles and artisan bread to the beautifully prepared meats, this establishment fails to disappoint. I’m unsure why they’re so underrated. If you find yourself just after the burrard bridge in downtown Vancouver, stop in to let your taste buds live a little.“

“Good fud, best prices, Enterprise whit purpose, helping the community!“

“Oh, heaven forbid you miss out on our fresh and delicious sandwiches, prepared by a tall, hot sandwich-making prodigy. And just in case the front parking is full, don't fret, we've got the luxurious back parking option. It's practically a sandwich-lover's paradise here, where breakfast and lunch are absolute winners.“

“Exploring Calgary, we came across Meat & Bread and decided to try the Feature sandwich & the buffalo chicken sandwich. Both were incredible, but it was the amazing staff that made it experience a great one. Friendly, super accommodating & gave us extra pickles & sauces to try. Business and service like this is what makes people enjoy traveling & trying new things! Will not be forgetting this place & will be back!!“

“So, I had a classic deli and muffuletta. Both delicious, great size and value for your money. Very clean dining area and welcoming environment. Everyone here was really friendly and attentive. I really enjoyed having these sandwiches with my wife, and as a bonus, Joy Division as a background!! C'mon!!!! The highlight of my week as mentioned to them. I will be back and will be bringing all my friends. Classic deli was the large size, lots of meat, great dressings and flavour, zesty and meaty!! The muffuletta was different but as great as the previous one, I liked this one a bit more because of the olives! That for me was the game changer! I'll try them all on my next visits! Cheers to you! Very well done!“

“Truly one of the gems of Vancouver. I work a few doors down and genuinely crave a sandwich from Kathy every day. When I give into that craving, it is the best experience. She is so friendly, fast, and makes the best sandwich in the world. Highly recommend a chicken melt with everything on it or a breakfast sandwich, but you really can’t go wrong. Go say hi to Kathy!!“

“After arriving from yonder.
I thought I’d grab a snack.
After a wee ponder,
I settled on this sub shack.
It reminds me of home.
And what I used to eat.
When my girl gave me dome.
And showed me smelly feet.
I wanted some pizza.
To fill my aching belly.
Was suprised to see,
#nopizza
what the helly?

But honestly,

Subs and service were great!

“Best sandwiches in town! Had the #3, pulled turkey, cheddar lettuce mayo mustard, i skipped tom and cappicola, and it it was delicious! Great service, they care that you enjoy !“

“My husband and I visited Saiko for the first time tonight and it’s our new favourite sushi place. We sat at the sushi bar and learned so much about sushi from the chef/owner! The nigiri we had was incredibly fresh, and likely the fish was still swimming yesterday, according to the chef. Their fish is regularly flown fresh from Japan during the week. We really enjoyed the big eye/ striped jack, renko dai/ big eye, and kanpachi/ amberjack nigiris, unagi don, and salad with real crab meat. Thank you for the wonderful evening Saiko sushi!!“

“These people give good portions. I like the service provided by Indian girl with specs, I recommend this place“

“Mung cho em, Lam an phat tai Nhe. Banh Mi ngon tuyet“

“Extremely friendly service, large selection of eats (all reasonably priced!) The only negative is it’s only located on Granville Island, but other than that I highly recommend this place!“

“This Subway is easy to whip past in Cambie , stop and take a second look! The stores super clean, the staff are eager to make nice generous sandwiches, and the atmosphere is quiet and peaceful, making it the perfect place to beat road rage and cap your appetite.“

“I had a great experience at this Subway location.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the sandwich was made perfectly. Everything was fresh and the place was clean. I really appreciate the great customer service. I’ll definitely come back again!“

“fresh and tasty every time!!! Hmmm...getting hungry now...may need to take a short drive!“

“I have been eating here from time to time in the past 3 years and I would say the quality has been top notch with very fresh material. The price is reasonable and the service is quite decent and quick.
The only drawback is that the location is in a small food court and not a fancy for inside.“

“Ambience, food preparation, presentation, and quality, attentive staff service, felt like in Paris.“

“Been coming here since he opened. Always great freshly made soups and sandwiches.“

“Great place to get you banh mi fix!“

“Good to know that this location open 24hrs.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Benipal made our visit to Subway an amazing experience today. His service, kindness, and patience truly stood out. My friend and I had a hard time deciding what we wanted, and he was incredibly helpful and understanding the whole time. He never rushed us and kept a positive attitude throughout. He’s an excellent associate and a great example of outstanding customer service!

“I love this Subway location. The staff go above and beyond every time.

I particularly enjoy asking for mustard and mayo, and receiving chipotle and buffalo sauce.

My sandwich tasted awful and my anoose burned like witch on Hanukkah for eight crazy nights.

10/10 will return.

NOOOOT!“

“I haven't been to this branch in a while, and was served by Inder. I was accompanied by a friend, and we ordered three footlong sandwiches. She ordered her usual tuna, I tried the bourbon brisquet, and we left with a steak & bacon. The subs were fresh, delicious and carefully made. Overall, a very pleasant dining experience! I wouldn't hesitate to return here in the future 8)“

“Tried this place (Langley) recently and it was so good! Best banh mi I’ve had in a long time, really quick service and lots of food for the value. Definitely recommend!“

“I have been a loyal Pita Pit fan for at least two decades now. I get the same one every time because after this many years and after probably eating like 200 pitas since high school, I have it dialed in and need never stray from the formula. The pitas are always good but sometimes they’re made extra special and fill the belly & soul in just the right way. I’ve ordered at this place several times since moving to the area and tonight was the most delicious and satisfying one I’ve had from this location. Thank you Kirti!“

“Excellent service by Shivangi! She was very polite and made my 6-inch sandwich perfectly—well stuffed, nicely sauced, and very fresh. Everything was prepared with clean hands and great attention to detail. Overall, very good customer service and a great experience.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Exceptional Service from Naman at Subway Alberni!
Naman absolutely made my day! He was incredibly friendly, professional, and quick all while making one of the best subs I’ve had in a long time. You can tell he genuinely cares about customers and takes pride in what he does. The sandwich was perfectly made, fresh, and neatly prepared. It’s rare to find this level of customer service these days Naman truly stands out.

If you’re stopping by Subway on Alberni, ask for Naman he’ll make sure you leave with a smile and a great meal! 👏“

“Tried this place (Langley) recently and it was so good! Best banh mi I’ve had in a long time, really quick service and lots of food for the value. Definitely recommend!“

“I’ve been to just about every Subway in the Lower Mainland. That’s how much I genuinely love Subway. And I can confidently say this is the best location in all of Vancouver.

What makes it special? It’s not just the location, even though I work a minute away. It’s not just the ingredients, since most Subways are pretty consistent. It’s the people.

The staff here work harder than almost anyone I know, and I have friends in some pretty labour-intensive jobs. If Subway had an Olympic sandwich-making team, Aman from this location would be the captain, bringing home gold for Canada.

And here’s where it gets even better. I walk in and I’m greeted with the warmest smile, like I’m a regular at a neighbourhood café instead of a sandwich chain. Most of the time, they already know what I’m about to order.

For the record, it’s a 6” Black Forest ham on Italian herbs and cheese, loaded in a very specific way: lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, cucumber, green peppers, red onions, pickles, a generous amount of black olives, jalapeños, banana peppers, then finished with mustard, mayo, and some salt and pepper. Yes, it’s a serious sandwich. And somehow, they nail it every single time.

Every sandwich is built with intention. And yes, the order matters. This isn’t random sandwich assembly. This is strategy. This is craftsmanship. This is basically sandwich architecture.

I don’t usually write reviews, but not saying anything about this place feels like a crime. Possibly a federal one.

If you’re anywhere near Yaletown, or honestly anywhere in downtown Vancouver, and you want a sandwich done properly, you have to stop by.

You will not be disappointed.“

“This Subway location is one of my favorites. The owners are very friendly and always make you feel welcome when you come in. The place is consistently very clean and well kept which I really appreciate. The sandwiches are always loaded with fresh veggies and the ingredients taste great every time I order. You can tell they take pride in the food they make. I definitely recommend stopping here if you want a tasty sub and great customer service.“

“The frozen yogurt is really pretty tasty. They make it with frozen fruit. I did not see if they added anything else. Maybe cream. But certainly not sugar. The taste was apparent. A really good healthy alternative sweet, cold dessert treat. Got the small size. Shared with my toddler. Honestly, I am a big guy. And it was almost too much for me. Under $4 including tax. Next time I will definitely try the sandwiches. One downside is since they make it fresh each time, you cannot try different flavours. But you basically just get whar you choose. If you like blueberry, it is just frozen blueberries made into frozrn yogurt.

A little icy is my only complaint. Maybe the frozen fruits could use a few minutes to thaw slightly. But great value and experience overqll.“

“had an excellent experience at this Subway. I ordered the BMT and it was honestly one of the best I’ve had—everything was fresh, well put together, and the Ruffles sauce added a really nice, unique touch that made it stand out.

The store itself was very clean and well maintained, which always makes a big difference. On top of that, the lady working was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Great customer service like that really elevates the whole experience.

Overall, this is easily one of the best Subway locations I’ve been to. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Ice Egg Coffee ( custard topping, coffee on bottom ) very good! thought it was more like a raw egg yolk floating on top. The CharSiu with Rice Vermicilli ( coleslaw, daikon, carrots ) very long julian very long and fresh, crunchy. Very plenty of Char Siu slices ( more like a Pork Belly Slices ).“

“Parneet kaur is known for her warm and friendly nature, always greeting customers with a smile and ensuring they have a great experience. She is highly professional, patient, and caring, making her a favorite among both customers and colleagues. Her ability to handle even the busiest hours with ease and efficiency is truly commendable.“

“The star of this location is Sandeep. She always welcomes you in with a genuine kind smile and she makes the best sandwiches. She never just throws together the ingredients between the bread, she thoughtfully distributes everything and it’s truly like watching an artist create. You can tell she puts her heart into every sandwich and I wish there were more sandwich artists like her! A beautifully made sandwich DOES taste better! Keep up the good work Sandeep, I will definitely be back soon. :)“

“Stopped by Subway and had a really good experience. Komal was working alone and still handled everything so well — super friendly, fast, and patient. The place was clean, the food was fresh, and my order was made just right. Big respect to her for managing everything smoothly. Will definitely come back!“

“So delicious. Worth every nickel 😁“

“I had a really great experience at Subway today! The staff was very friendly, polite, and quick with the service. My sandwich was made exactly the way I asked, with fresh vegetables and perfectly toasted bread. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. The staff (kiran) who severed us was behaving very professional and polite to her customers.“

“I googled “sandwiches near me” (haha) while in Vancouver and found this little gem. I had a turkey sub and it was so good. I added pickles and extra mayo (also came with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and onions) and was very happy with my decision. The buns are those kind that are soft inside but a little crispy on the outside. Yum!! I’ll be back.“

“I’ve been coming to this Subway since I was a kid, and it’s always been a consistently great experience. It’s one of those neighborhood spots that feels familiar and welcoming every time you walk in.

The owner Sunny is incredibly kind and professional — he genuinely cares about his customers and it shows. The store is always clean, organized, and well maintained, which is something I really appreciate. The sandwiches are fresh, made carefully, and always taste great.

It’s rare to find a place that stays this consistent over the years. Supporting a local owner who takes pride in his business makes it even better. Highly recommend this location if you want friendly service and a solid, tasty sub every time!“

“There are number of times i eat from subway. but today i really want to put review about a employee her name is ashmeet she is so helpful, sweet and humble. first time i try wrap i always eat sub. she helped me to select and guide me about sauces according to my taste. All in all i really like her addication towards work and her smile make comfortable to the customer❤️.“

“My office is next to this branch and we come here a lot. Always great experience!! Navneep
and Sandeep are such a great workers. Always welcome you with a smile and make sure you will get the BEST sandwich. The place is always clean and organized. Highly recommend this Subway location for anyone who want more than just a sandwich. Thank you girls!!“

“Tried this location for the 1st time. & had my 1st ever bowl from Subway which was the peri peri bowl. It was TASTY! The ladies were nice, the woman helping w/ my order was attentive, and kind to say the least. They even went out of their way to give suggestions/alterations or the bowl :)
Would visit again, if I pass by.
Thanks!“

“TJ served me with a positive attitude and strong attention to cleanliness and customer service. He handled the customer efficiently. Her friendly tone with customers created a welcoming atmosphere.

Amazing experience and will come back again!“

“Awesome location? Near UBC hospital. Cheaper and better meal quality than McDonalds! Open 24 hours! Perfect for working near by. Unfortunately I have to order on the app to use the coupon. (Tim Hortons app I can order in person using the app coupons.) I like ordering in person. Clean restaurant. Fully stocked chip display. Good selection of cookies. The wall menu is easy to read. The drink case is fully stocked. High and regular hight tables. (My friend has back issues. Meaning no sitting in a chair.) The sandwich was ready before the estimated time. Will return again!“

“I just wanted to share my appreciation for Gurpreet(overnight employee), who always makes the best sandwiches! Every time I visit,!! it’s only because of him,!!he’s friendly, attentive, and takes real care in preparing the sandwich exactly the way I like it. The ingredients are layered perfectly, the portions are spot on, and the overall taste is amazing.
His great service and positive attitude make the whole experience even better. Subway is lucky to have someone so dedicated and talented.
Thank you, Gurpreet, for consistently making such delicious sandwiches! 🙌🥪💛“

“Val made my sandwich! 6/5 stars.

I had Quiznos a long time ago when I was little and once a few years ago, and I was craving one after a long time.

Val really settled my craving, thanks Val & Staff!“
