50 Best Sandwich Shops in Tampa

“Best doughnuts and egg sandwiches in town! Reasonable prices as well, which is hard to find these days. Hands down Tampa's best kept secret!“

“1st time customer. The girls are very welcoming.Jessica and Wrena are great. Both are very knowledgeable of the menu. Had a few Suggestions the big kahuna cheese steak being 1 of them, and with a few modifications its thee best cheese steak sandwich I've experienced thus far lol. Awesome choice! Very feeling and goes great with miss Vicki's spicy dill pickle chips! Thanks ladies it was fun and tasty!!!“

“Had such a great lunch here with my fiancé We aren’t from Tampa just visiting while we are staying in the NICU with our baby boy 🩵 will definitely be back though when we are in the area, highly recommend trying this restaurant! Great vibes and great food!“

“Good portions, good food, great service!“

“So it smells incredible It's a unique location the staff is super friendly the food looks amazing and smells amazing but I'm gonna be honest here I had the fly by scramble egg bacon and cheese and it was lackluster pretty basic For how much it cost honestly. I think altogether I spent 10 bucks on a 6 inch hoagie with what appeared to be 2 pieces of bacon scrambled eggs and a piece of cheese on top Stuffed inside. The presentation was awesome the smell and the look was phenomenal but the taste did not match what was happening... It ended up being very mediocre I really think that they would be doing themselves a service if they seasoned the inside of the hoagie roll as well as the outside that way every bite is an experience for the tongue. Other than that it was good quality product but if I had to rate it one out of 10 it gets a 5 On the food meter. Probably won't get it again unless they add a little bit of flavor to the inside of it as well.“

“Been coming to Barrows regularly for around 20 years and through two different owners. The current owner, Wes, is incredibly nice, helpful, and accommodating. A super friendly guy who makes being a regular well worth it.

The best part about the food at Barrows is the consistency, which is something a lot of places in the area seem to struggle with in my opinion. It's also great the sandwiches are not strictly limited to the written menu and you can sub-in, remove, or even create whatever is to your tastes. My go-to will always be the Honey Mustard Pork on Cuban bread however. Outside of the sandwiches, everything else is also super fresh and is prepped the morning of!

Great south Tampa staple and one of my go-to places for weekday lunch!!“

“Great food and fresh drinks. Great atmosphere and services.“

“Great food. Fast service.“

“Ordered for delivery and so glad I did. The bread was so crisp and the food was fire overall. Tasty, fresh fast!“

“Took my party there to gather Intel, meet up after hard Dungeon crawl and look for more side quests, only to discover is JUST a sandwich shop. My palidin and thief wanted to leave but I convinced them to stay anyway. The food and staff were delightful! Would go again!“

“Yummy Cuban cuisines that never disappoint!“

“I cannot stop eating from there. I eat there everyday and it is amazing and the girls are fabulous!“

“This food took me away, it transported me. The flavors brought me to my in-laws house in Aguada, PR. I was suddenly eating my breakfast on the porch, in the mountains, with the breeze in my hair and looking out at the ocean. This food tastes like home, like family made it. We will be back and absolutely recommend.“

“Best sandwich I have had so far in florida.“

“The man and woman that takes care of that place and communicates with you are very friendly, And family oriented in a grandma and grandpa kind of way Food is fast compared to similar eateries like it loved every bit about this place If you are in the HCC Del Mabry area, definitely stopped by“

“Love having a local market nearby! This is my stop over any other of the larger markets. Meats, veggies a bite to eat for breakfast or lunch - it's all good!“

“My son, mom and I stopped in for an early dinner after my son's basketball game. This was our 1st time here and we absolutely loved the food. I highly recommend the "Cool ranch rider" has a nice kick to it the only thing I did differently was ranch instead of mayo and banana peppers instead of hot peppers. My son had the "Turkey bacon" minus onion and tomato as well as sub the mayo for ranch he absolutely loved it!! My mom got the "Roast Beast" loved hers as well!! We decided to try the Lemon Blueberry cheesecake, it too was delicious!! We will definitely be back!! The ladies that helped us with our order were super sweet and made us feel very welcomed!! Loved the vibe. Reggae music playing as well, just overall a great place!! We were at the 3rd Avenue location for reference!!“

“My Sandwich Was Hot N Freshhh“

“Been coming here for years. However the new staff doesn't care about customer service. I propably won't be coming back. We walked in, and the lady at the counter was too busy on her cell phone, ignoring us, after five minutes of us being there, we walked out. The owner was not there, and you can tell the difference!“

“Literally been visiting this restaurant since I was a senior in high school in 2008, it was my “last meal” before shipping off to the army after being processed at the MEPS across the street, it was my go to lunch on my moms lunch breaks lol my in laws love it here too, I’m sure they know the owners. Amazing food, friendly staff always, homey atmosphere… I live in ATL now and every time in Tampa I still come to Cary y Pedro’s 💕 best Cuban restaurant in town hands down“

“I can never get enough of it!

Whether their amazingly tasty food, their great customer service, or the clean and friendly environment inside, Chicken Salad Chick DELIVERS EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Killer closing note? The sweet, soft, little buttercream-frosted sugar cookies, provided as a complimentary treat with meals… YUM! 😋🤤 (You can ALWAYS purchase them by the dozen 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼“

“This amazing little Sandwich Shop has BIG flavors going on in its kitchen! I had the pleasure of trying there grilled steak sandwich and Cuban sandwich with all the fixings and they were amazing! As I pulled apart my sandwich from the middle cut, I had just the right amount of cheese pull. The bread is to die for! I also tried their white rice with chicken stew and it was heaven on a plate. The staff was very nice to include the restaurant's owner Ms Cuca...who gave us a genuine smile as soon as we walked into the store. This place is a Latin Mom and Pops spot that you must visit for authentic Latin cuisine“

“This place has been there for years. I grew up just around the corner on 59th Street and had never eaten there. I used to go there and buy a softdrink occasionally. Yesterday I was returning from my Uncle Woody's funeral and decided to drive through the old neighborhood (Six Mile Creek) to see how it has changed. We are longtime friends with the Brocato family of Brocato's Sandwich Shop and i suppose that's why I had never tried Carlos'. I bought two devil crabs and they were tasty. A good filling to breading ratio, good crispness (fried to perfection) and very pleasant staff. I suppose I need to try their cuban sandwiches next. I would definitely go back again.“

“This jersey mikes on kennedy is the best. These girls are so awesome and fast. It's my favorite one to go to. They are amazing!!!!!! Best jersey mikes ever is this one. Hands down. Must be the girl power!“

“Un Restaurante todo muy Rico y las personas muy amable“

“Visited Saturday at 11:00 am and the staff was friendly , we were greeted when we entered. First time here and will definitely be back. Ordered two cubanos, chili and a french toast cookie; everything was amazing, portion were great and price was good“

“I wish I would have gotten the two ladies name they were so nice To me, the first time I came there they made me a Caesar salad wrap but my dog ate it and I came back on Tuesday and told them what had happened. They made a couple jokes about it which made my experience very welcoming and I was able to laugh as well. They are so professional, very polite.“

“The service was very quick and efficient. The place was very clean, and all the ingredients looked fresh, which inspires a lot of confidence. I really appreciated the staff's attention: they are very friendly, attentive, and always make sure to offer you all the options available in the store. Definitely a very pleasant experience.“

“Excellent service Well run Good food They deliver what they promise and more.“

“I’ll recommend it because they make great food BUT I went to the Ladies Room and the soap dispenser is broken. The thing is, there were two females making sandwiches which begs the question....did they wash their hands??? They wear gloves and, I suppose, they could wash their hands in the kitchen but why? Why is it broken? Do they not pee? As I said great food but this is a concern“

“I’ve been searching for Sandwiches better than Publix,
Well I’ve found them!!!!!
The food is AMAZING, the atmosphere is so chill and relaxing and the manager AMY, has THE BEST CONVERSATIONS, I Promise if you bring in your best Nature/Animal photo YOU WON’T be disappointed, she DEFINITELY appreciates great Nature.
LOVE 🫶🏾THIS PLACE & THE PEOPLE SO MUCH, see you in a few days 👋🏾“

“I come to this JJ maybe two times per month for lunch. The staff here are incredible. They remember my name and my order every time and have my food ready within 2 minutes of walking in the door every time. They run the place like they own it, cannot say enough good things about this location!“

“Perfecto! I ordered an Italian with everything but jalapeños. Most palaces would have handed me some overloaded unmanageable pile of junk. Like biting into a whole onion. Papa joes was a perfectly placed amount of ingredients and was delicious. Thanks for lunch y’all!“

“Great service, good food, would definitely go back!“

“I was working downtown today and stopped in this subway and I was so impressed with the young girl working there. There were at least 6 people in line when I got there and she still had me out of there in about ten minutes. Her name was Yamie. She was the only employee in the whole building and she was so on point with her job. This woman deserves a better position with this company. Her attitude was amazing!“

“Jimmy John’s provided a quick and satisfying sandwich shop experience with fresh ingredients, fast service, and a clean welcoming atmosphere throughout the visit. The sandwiches were made fresh to order with soft bread, quality meats, crisp vegetables, and flavorful toppings that created a simple but delicious meal. I especially appreciated the speed of service, which made the restaurant a perfect option for lunch breaks and quick meals on the go. The menu offered a great variety of sandwiches, wraps, chips, and drinks that made it easy to find something enjoyable for everyone. The staff members were friendly, efficient, and worked hard to keep orders accurate and moving quickly even during busy hours. Everything throughout the restaurant appeared clean, organized, and professionally maintained. This is definitely a dependable spot in Tampa for fresh sandwiches and convenient fast casual dining.“
