50 Best Sandwich Shops near Del Mar

“This bustling place has been growing. I’d love to see one or two up North in Oregon. Good skate parks and beers. Or maybe I just have enjoy the SOCal that much.“

“We'll miss Greg but the staff in general is wonderful. Granted we may have a problem and eat there too often but today, the young lady remembered our order! Amazing! We miss the one on 7th and McDowell in PHX but this one has our business.“

“there were so many vegan groceries and ready made items. my favorite part was that the whole food brand 365 has vegan versions of name brand foods! 365 has their own vegan burgers, chickn patties, chicken pieces, etc. that are a lot cheaper. my least favorite part was how expensive everything was in general“

“The best sandwiches and so many to choose from. Love all the free added extras avail. Jalapenos, banana peppers etc. The halal chicken is humanely done so that makes me feel better about eating it and there are a ton of vegetarian options. More than I've seen anywhere.“

“Love what they have brought to our San Diego farmers markets!!!! A must for exceptional American artisanal cheeses!!!“

“The name is fitting! Definitely recommend“

“Bale French Sandwich is a tiny shop tucked away in Mira Mesa Square serving quick Vietnamese dishes like banh mi, fried rice, egg rolls, and boba.

We enjoyed the charbroiled pork and lemongrass chicken banh mi - a great value at $6.25 each. The bread had a great crust: thin, very crisp, and flaky. The pickled carrot and daikon added nice texture and brightness, while the raw jalapeños brought the right amount of heat. The egg rolls were also a hit, with a peppery flavor and a crisp outer shell.

Note that this is a grab-and-go spot with a strictly business vibe. The service is efficient, so have your order ready. There is only one small table for snacking and two benches for waiting. They also offer extensive party tray options if you order in advance.

There is plenty of free parking, though the lot gets competitive on weekends due to the nearby Aldi and Lucky Seafood Market.“

“Great food but terrible location in the middle of an industrial park. They need to move to a strip mall on a busy street to get more business“

“Best BLT on Soda Bread yummy and fresh vegetables.“

“Garden Grill House is a hidden gem in San Diego! They serve an amazing variety of sandwiches along with flavorful Mediterranean and Persian dishes that always hit the spot. There’s plenty of parking, which makes visiting super easy.

The outdoor patio is a great place to relax and enjoy a meal, and they also offer many types of hookahs, adding to the fun and laid-back vibe. On top of that, they host parties and birthdays, and their catering service is perfect if you want to share their delicious food at your own event.

Whether you’re stopping by for a casual hangout or planning something special, Garden Grill House is definitely worth checking out!“

“The best sandwich restaurant in San Diego. Subnman, there were very fresh ingredients in various types of bread. Really I was very satisfied because it was so delicious, the amount was abundant, and the price was cheap. I can't forget Subman, the best sandwich restaurant located in Encinitas, so I want to visit again.“

“It was ono!!! My favorite sandwich place“

“Love that they use all the authentic ingredients in a Philly Cheesesteak“

“They simply don’t make them like this shop anymore. It was exactly what I wanted- a fairly priced small family owned bodega-style shop. I got the breakfast croissant with egg bacon and cheese. So good and $6.99. Skip Starbucks and get yourself some good sandwiches that don’t break the bank while also supporting a small business. Will definitely be back!“

“It so tasty mango 🥭 beer 🍺 ever!!!“

“We tried the Fruit Sando! It was very good- and very generous on the cream. Fruit tasted fresh and bread was okay. Display was nice as well. Next time I’ll have to try some of their savory options but all and all a very easy and pleasing experience. $11 was a little steep and maybe around $8 i’d come more often and they could consider catering at that price. But still good stuff! Thank you“

“We always received great service at Jersey Mikes and this location Encinitas with no exception. The line was out the door when you arrive during Saturday's lunch rush but we had our food in no time at all. The service was awesome and even know they were super busy employee still had a smile on their face. Will definitely be returning this location because their food is amazing as well“

“I had the mango salad with chicken. It had a wide variety of lettuces giving it nice texture and flavor. We had a side of the consistently tasty curried couscous. The atmosphere with its turf and play area was nice for families, especially those with young children and those like us with our Collie and Golden Retriever in tow. The service was efficient but not intrusive. We opted to eat outside there.“

“Great food, fabulous service, and the owner, George, was absolutely wonderful to us! We’re visiting from Reno and looking for some good bites in La Jolla and found this place on Google. George made the whole experience with his customer service. He gave us free beer before our flight because he knew we needed it. Do yourself a favor and come eat here!“

“Evan was AMAZING!!!! I told him it was my first time trying Ikes and he took care of me with a stellar recommendation. Will definitely be back if that’s the type of customer service you get !!! Life long customer now ! Evan needs a raise!!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-star

If you're craving fresh, flavorful, California-cool sandwiches in a relaxed, beach-town vibe—Mendocino Farms in Encinitas is your spot! I swung by today and here's why I’m already planning my next visit:

What I Loved

Flavor-forward sandwiches! I tried the Asian Chicken Salad. Every bite popped with freshness.

Vibe = chill beachtown meets urban green. Bright, clean interior with stylish wood accents, loads of plants, and that slow-California rhythm that just relaxes you.

Friendly staff who get it — Especially impressive, since I'm always asking about gluten-free or low-sugar swaps. They were happy to recommend—and actually remembered my “no sauce, extra avocado” next time.

Quick and consistent service. Even at the lunch rush, food came out hot in under 10 minutes, and they nailed my custom order with zero mixups.

Great outdoor seating. Sun-washed patio had perfect shade-blocking umbrellas and that easygoing Encinitas energy (also dog-friendly for your pup’s occasional snack moment!).“

“Placed an order for 45 box lunches and a catering box…to all be picked up at 10:30am today. I know the Jersey Mike’s guys had to come in early to get it all ready. They were all smiles when we swiped up to pick up the order. Everything was FLAWLESS! Everything was fresh and ready on time. The entire UCSB lacrosse team was well fed, leaving nothing behind. Thank you Jersey Mikes. And Go Gauchos!“

“Great staff! Handled the friday noon rush w/ ease!“

“This was my first time trying out Which Wich sandwiches, and I liked it a lot! Very delicious and affordable.I've tried other subs like subway or jersey Mike's and for me those have to much bread. I love that the bread form this place is very thin, and you get to enjoy the actual ingredients on the sandwich ?Also the guy and the girl attending customers in the morning are very kind and nice, they made us feel welcome and we left very happy ?Thank you! I will definitely come back. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Six stars!“

“Just moved to Cali, used to manage a J Mikes in Texas. I’ve gotta say, I love the crew here. So friendly, bubbly, great communication - and obviously the subs are amazing. This is my new favorite location in California! Thanks for making me feel at home!“

“Had the farm Turkey club and was not disappointed. The smashed avocado and pickled red onion are a match made in Heaven. This it’s exactly what I was craving. So good with the dill chips. Thank you for the prompt service also, especially as busy as it was when I was there. I’m a fan.“

“Get the pastrami with extra secret sauce, it’ll bring heaven to earth every bite you take. Grab a cookie and let the party keep going. Don’t bother counting “carbs”, they won’t count when you find yourself dancing away at life. Totally evens everything out 💃 💃 😏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“They make really great sandwiches here! I love the Italian sub.

Parking: They have a couple of spots right in front.

Kid-friendliness: Kids love the sandwiches! They can also choose what they want on them.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp for wheelchair.“

“I didn’t catch her name but the girl from santa cruz with tattoos helped me and my friend order since we have never been to mikes subs before and she was so helpful! Customer service 10/10 and food was amazing. I had the big kahuna which was great!“

“Great customer service from Rico. Thank you!“

“Really clean inside, the staff was good. The grilled chicken salad taste good.“

“01-04-25
-Fresh Baguette x3 $7.50– my favorite place to get French bread. Best bread in town!
-Pate Chaud Meat Pie $2.59– yummy!
-Egg Roll x2 $3.38– tasty meat and I enjoyed rice paper wrapper, crunchy delicious!“

“I got the spicy tuna Swiss this time. SO good. Spicy and fresh. Not too heavy on the mayo mix. The subs here are always consistently delicious. The bread is well baked each time. Fresh always. Their lentil soup is also always good and their chocolate chip cookies are awesome. Great vegetarian options.“

“Had a meatball marinara subway this afternoon with my good Friend Jay and they were delicious .

Parking: It's a plaza with other businesses so there is plenty of parking for handicapped and other regular spots and all are free.

Wheelchair accessibility: There are several spaces available.“

“3.5 StarsThe service was okay, but could have been better. I didn't mind waiting for the server to make the sandwich for the only other customer in front of me. She starts making my sandwich and when someone else walks in, she starts making their sandwichm even though I let her know that I am in a hurry. That was inconsiderate and frustrating.The sandwich was good.“

“Always great customer service & food, never disappoints!“

“This location is convenient for anyone working or living within a four mile radius. There is a full shopping mall here with several eateries and a grocery store. The lot is huge, so plenty of parking, even during holiday season.

This Subway has a couple of women who work the day shift like pros. They make a sandwich like it’s nobody’s business and not once have they ever messed it up. I have busted this store more times than I can count on my fingers and toes, so it’s about time I gave them their props! Way to go girls. I sure hope your manager appreciates you as much as all us customers do!“

“I love Jersey Mike's with a passion, and this location never really has a line during my visits. Quality is fresh and appetizing, and service is friendly. Love using my app here for points. Location is safe and appealing.

Parking: Plenty.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp.“
