50 Best Sandwich Shops near Fountain Valley

“This is the OG spot. Been coming to Philly’s Best for more than 20 years and have a lot of great memories especially at this location! Went to a different one today and they didn’t have the pepper/pickle bar, didn’t serve beer, and no condiments at the tables like this place does.

Not making that mistake again, this was the first Phillys Best where the chain was born and it’s still the best

Parking: Super easy to find parking here, I’ve never had a problem

Kid-friendliness: My dad used to bring me here all the time growing up and I loved the arcade games they had in the corner by the bathroom

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access, shouldn’t have a problem at all“

“I was genuinely impressed by the quality and flavor of my Amuna's Tuna sandwich. Everything tasted incredibly fresh—from the Dutch Crunch, crisp bread to the well-seasoned proteins tuna. You can tell they prioritize quality ingredients and take pride in what they serve.

The sandwich was clearly sourced with care, and nothing felt processed or artificial. I loved how my meal was bursting with flavor.

Highly recommend for anyone who values quality food. Will definitely be coming back for more!“

“We came in last night and had such wonderful service from Ken and Pablo, so we actually were craving Subway again. This time we were met with a different set of employees and were very pleased that we received the same great service as we did last night. Today, Sylvia made our Sandwiches and soup. She was very polite and made our orders perfectly!! It’s quite unusual for me to review a place a second time, and especially this close together, but I just felt led to write this so that management knows they’ve done a heck of a job with these hires! Good job you guys!! Keep it up! We will DEFINITELY be back, and probably not too long from now!! 🙏🤍🤍“

“This location is the only one I go to that they dont have the freshest bread and no spicy mustard. All the locations I go to have spicy brown mustard. Not the associates fault ,but whomever the location owner is.
Idk about the bread ,its never fluffy like the other locations. I cant eat the end peices because of it. I order a giant, but once im done its more like a med because of those peices I have to toss out.“

“The place is cleaner, creating a pleasant atmosphere. And let's talk about the sandwiches – they're a fresh delight! Kudos to the new owner for making such positive improvements. The clean vibe and fresh sandwiches at Subway now are a total win. It's like a tasty makeover!“

“Lee’s Sandwiches is a classic. If you're craving Vietnamese coffee, this is the spot. It’s sweet, creamy, packed with caffeine, and ice cold. I've been coming to this location since I was a kid and they've always had a lot of customers. It's still here too which goes to show you how good this particular location is.

Their banh mi are always tasty and consistent. Prices have gone up a bit over time, but it’s still a reliable go-to when you want something satisfying and quick.“

“Had a good experience at this THH. It was a great spot for a quick bite and they had a large selection of ready made foods. We just got a few different banh mi. My son and husband got bbq pork and lemongrass beef. They said the pork was the way to go. I had the fried shrimp and really enjoyed it. We also picked up some spring rolls. The Vietnamese iced coffees are nuclear strong, but super good. My husband has tried other locations and said this one is different and has more ready-made foods. It was pretty busy when we went there. I would go back. I saw a lot of things I want to try next time.“

“I just want to take a moment to recognize two amazing women at Subway — Esther and Lily.

From the moment I walked in, they treated me with kindness, respect, and genuine warmth. You can tell they don’t just work there — they actually care. Their positive energy, beautiful smiles, and the way they treat customers makes a huge difference, especially on tough days.

Esther was patient, professional, and made sure everything was perfect with my order. Lily was just as incredible — friendly, attentive, and so welcoming. They both go above and beyond, and it doesn’t go unnoticed.

In a world where customer service can sometimes feel rushed or cold, these two ladies remind you what real hospitality feels like. Subway is lucky to have them.

Thank you Esther and Lily — you made my day better than you know. 💛“

“This place had high ratings so I went and I was glad. That was surprisingly delicious. It looks kinda plain when you first get it but the flavor is amazing!

The guys working there were incredibly nice and accommodating. You can tell they do it for the love of the food. They enjoy what they do. The food reflects both of those things.“

“They clearly take tremendous pleasure in their store and merchandise. The Italian grinder and the pastrami on a baguette that we had were both excellent. We'll definitely start stopping here frequently on our way to the beach to pick up sandwiches.“

“Absolutely incredible. My new favorite place. You never taste a smash burger like this. Real Grilled Mexican Jalapeños. I still have my lips sleeped :) next Pastrami sandwich. Congrats to the team. The kitchen is still fast with many customers orders! 👊“

“Really good deli. My wife and I had a couple of pastrami sandwiches. I had mine cold and hers was made hot. They were both excellent. We had a couple of blonde beers at $3 each and were really good also. You order at the counter and they bring everything to you which happened very quickly. You can grab some pickles which are off to the side if wanted. The restaurant was really clean and I noticed they clean the tables really quickly once vacated. Everyone very friendly.“

“I have been to the Sessions in Newport beach a few times and I love everything about the place, great food, great service, and the owner greeted me personally! I would 100% recommend this place for a great family meal!“

“Jerry’s Sandwich Shop is one of those places you keep coming back to because it’s consistently solid. The sandwiches are fresh, made to order, and packed with flavor without being sloppy or overdone. You can tell they use good ingredients and actually care about what they’re putting out. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and everything comes out exactly how you ask for it.

The staff is friendly, efficient, and easy to deal with, even when it’s busy. The shop itself is clean and comfortable, making it a great spot whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down to eat. Overall, it’s just a dependable, quality sandwich spot. Highly recommend if you’re in the area.“

“Ahhh can't believe they open one closer to me!! Sweet! Finally stopped by. I got the ahi salad and of course the white chocolate raspberry cookie. It used to be under $2 a cookie the last time I visited .

The ahi salad with good. Fresh ingredients and good mix. The color of this dressing was a little off putting so hopefully nothing too bad for you in it, lol.

I would totally visit again!“

“We recently catered sandwich platters for a club meeting and they were delicious! Service was quick and easy, pick up was a breeze, and extra points for the pickles and lollies! Already looking forward to coming back to try something new.“

But seriously... EVERYTHING is delicious.“

“Lots of great taste in a sandwich & secret sauce is amazing!“

“Great food and place to sneek a beer on your lunch hour 😉“

“Food is good, service is prompt. A shame is parking lot is a bit too small.“

“I love the cool clean freshness of modern architecture and light the restaurant provides; with a decided touch of old ranch atmosphere; you can be left alone to yourself, or join in community. The food is varied, always fresh, healthy, creative modern nouvelle cuisine along with more traditional dishes, the ingredients definitely high quality -California Sunshine. If you really wish to muse, meditate, read, or silently work, the place is surrounded by little nooks and crannies in the midst of nature. You can even lull yourself to a nap, abandoning all care for a few precious minutes. Or else you can sit outside in community, perhaps choosing a more intimate table conversational setting on certain days, resolving the woes or the theories our world is constructed on. All together a complete experience🙏 Thank you.“

“Ube cheesecake is amazing!“

“Each time I visit a Sessions location, my love for them grows because of how consistent they remain and how delicious their food is.

Doesn’t matter the location, they always deliver the same quality food, the same laid back vibe, the same experience of leaving content and satisfied!

Already looking forward to the next visit!“

“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.“

“I have come into this place so many times and every time I am so pleased with the service. I am always greeted by Aleyna and Serena and they are very kind and make sure that my sandwich is just how I like it. Makes my lunch easy and fresh. Love this place.“

“Growing up outside Philadelphia, I’m always on the hunt for authentic Philly cheese steaks. John’s has excellent cheese steaks and has been a Huntington Beach favorite for decades. The bread is amazing and baked locally which is a key ingredient to simply amazing sandwiches! They stuff a lot of meat and cheese and peppers and onions in there, and the result makes ya wanna shout, “Go Birds!” Someone will probably shout it back, too. If you like cheese steaks, yeah, get em the way ya like them at John’s!“

“Food great but no restroom in a sit down restaurant not good“

“The soup, the salad, the sandwich, and John along with all the service team!!“

The Philly steak was great and I will definitely be coming back when I’m in the area.“

“This place is a hidden gem! The service was amazing and they were so kind and friendly. The place is well kept and cared for. The sandwich was delicious and incredibly affordable. For $25 my girlfriend and I got to have a beach picnic with a full sandwich, Mac salad, two cokes, and a large bag of chips! We will absolutely be back!! Thank you to the sweet lady at the register and the kind chef who made our sandwich!“

“Lane Stone delivered an unparalleled level of client service that surpassed all expectations. He consistently went above and beyond, dedicating his weekends to showing us houses and remaining patient as we took our time to make decisions. He even proactively contacted agents with homes in escrow to explore the possibility of submitting backup offers. Thanks to his unwavering commitment, we successfully closed on our house during a highly competitive market period. Lane made it his priority to ensure that we felt valued and received his undivided attention throughout the process. The Sackin-Stone team, including Lane, provided outstanding support, with other agents stepping in when needed. Our experience with the Sackin-Stone team was exceptional, and we intend to rely on them for all our real estate needs in Orange County. They have earned a client for life!“

“This is a great place for you to grab a delicious well crafted sandwich and enjoy seating outside or take it to the beach. Love the menu and the juices are delicious The price is very competitive. I will def come back to try other items. Great deal“

“My husband and I stopped by after seeing Eddie Izzard's Hamlet right down the street. I got the Damon Bruce and my husband got thr Hollywoo. Both were fantastic (though I tried both and think i picked best). The dirty sauce was surprisingly sweet, and the only complaint I have is that it was sweeter than I would have liked. Did not stop me from devouring the deliciousness, though. I will be back if I am in the area again.“

“Joe's is simply a great little sandwich and deli shop with affordable prices, kind service, and good food. I've tried a few different items here and always enjoyed the sandwiches.

A few of my favorites are the Walnut Chicken Sandwich, Jalapeño Chicken, Jalapeño Tuna, and Cranberry Turkey. The sandwiches are filled with fresh ingredients, and the sourdough and squaw are my go-to bread choices. The combos include a drink and chips. Salads are also available.

I usually come in for lunch with little to no waiting. There are a few tables to dine at, but I typically take my order to go.

I'm happy to support this small, local business. I can't wait to try more items from Joe's. I highly recommend it!“
