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!“

“Outstanding local sourdough comforting goodness. Everything is beyond expectation, absolutely delicious.“

“My first time trying this place but undoubtedly as seen from all good reviews, the food here is delicious, they have nice vegetarian options as well, the size is good and they always meet you with a smile. The best place to try breakfast sandwiches. We enjoyed our primavera sandwich and coffee, great start to our day! Highly recommend.

They have limited indoor seating but quite enough outdoor seating, so if the weather is nice, this would be the perfect spot to enjoy outdoor.

Vegetarian options: For vegetarian options, make sure you check with someone there and they will be able to suggest better based on your preference but they have nice veg options.

Parking: 5-6 parking spaces available“

“Hubby and I had lunch here today before our flight home. I'm glad we did! We will be adding it to our rotation when we are in Tampa. He had the West Tampa and I had the Grill Chez. It was sooo good! I'll admit I am a grilled cheese snob. I like my sandwich crispy and buttery with an interesting blend of cheese and toppings. This sandwich didn't disappoint! It was so good first bite to last. The bread, cheese and topping choice was spot on! Check them out, you won't be disappointed!“

“I recently dined at Yanecita’s Kitchen and was thoroughly impressed by the flavorful dishes they offer. The restaurant has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with a charming decor that reflects the rich cultural heritage behind the cuisine.

The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the food. Every dish I tried was bursting with authentic flavors that transported me straight to the heart of traditional home-cooked meals. The spices were perfectly balanced, and each bite was a delightful experience. The portions were generous, and the presentation was appetizing.“

“I recently visited Jersey Mike's and was thoroughly impressed with my experience. The moment I walked in, I was greeted by friendly staff who made me feel welcome. The menu offered a wide variety of sub sandwiches, and I appreciated the fresh ingredients on display.

I decided to try the "Original Italian" and was not disappointed. The meats and cheeses were sliced fresh to order, and the bread was perfectly soft yet sturdy enough to hold all the delicious fillings. The combination of flavors was outstanding, and the veggies were crisp and flavorful.

What stood out the most was the attention to detail and the quality of the ingredients. It's clear that Jersey Mike's takes pride in providing a superior product compared to other sub shops. The service was quick, and the store was clean and well-maintained.

Overall, my experience at Jersey Mike's was fantastic.“

“After taking a greyhound bus from Reno, Nevada. Then finally arriving at Tampa, Florida after a rough 96 hour trip, I came across this absolute gem of a restaurant to find out that not only was the food reasonably priced ; It was magnificently delicious! I didn't know what to get when I walked in so I asked for a recommendation, which was the Philly cheese-steak combo meal with original fries and a cookies and cream shake. I couldn't have been more satisfied with my first meal in a city and state I've never been to Til now. I over all recommend this place to anyone else! 10/10“

“Gateway subs was absolutely incredible! My husband and I had just moved to Tampa and this was our first restaurant we tried.

This will be a go-to spot for us!“

“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 is such a hidden gem! My boyfriend took me here for their Cuban sandwiches and it is so good! Everything is just perfect. The crunchiness of the bread is out of this world! The ham, lettuce, pickles, and mustard is perfectly proportion. The price is super reasonable! I also love their guava pastries! So delicious! Highly recommended if you love Cuban sandwiches!“

“This Charleys location is absolutely wonderful. Since my wife and I frequent that Walmart we have went to this location on average once a week since it opened, and haven't had a single bad experience. The closest was that I tried a new cheese stake that didn't agree with my body and it ended up making me nauseous, so I told the person I recognized as the boss, and stressed that I just wanted to let him know so the problem could be looked into. He ended up giving me a free cheese stake for my trouble. The food itself, while pricey, is amazing. Their wings are big, flavorful, and meaty. There have been cheese stakes I didn't like, but that is always a risk you take when you try something new. The cooks have never, not even once given me the wrong order. As far as atmosphere goes it does feel like you are in a little restaurant that is inside a walmart, but they can't really be blamed for the reality of it.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is flat ground, and I am sure if you need help with moving a chair someone would happily lend a hand.“

“My husband and I went to Victoria"s for the first time Sept 5th. The deviled crab was great. The Cuban sandwich was very good. And Rose was a very sweet lady. D McGarrah“

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

“The lady that takes the orders can not hear very well. She gave me a small Turkey instead of a small Cuban and then decided to argue with me after but at the end I had got my small and large Cuban. How I wanted it and the food was very delicious.“

“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!“

“The best ever Cuban sandwiches, egg salad, meatball, Greek salad....well, you get the idea. Everything is fresh and delicious. Enjoy yourself and support a small local business at the same time. Bon apetit!“

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

“Love the Chicken Philly from Charley’s. We placed two orders to be picked up and were ready within 10 minutes. I didn’t realize one of the orders had two bags and left without it. Ozzie ran after my car to give me the bag! That’s amazing service!“

“I've been going to Gene Anthony's for over 2 decades and have always had a great experience the mother and daughter team are always friendly and polite and now my grandchildren are loyal customers ..?“

Vegetarian options: They have everything that they put on a regular sub that you can get with no meat.“

“I have eaten 300 sandwiches here can't beat it for the money.“

“My wife and I ate at Potbelly for the first the other day. I am so tired of the traditional sandwich shops over the years I wnat3d to try something new. I had the classic BLT!! Everything is a bit different, and just when u think you know, you have no idea. Brands of chips and sizes of sandwich are all different lingos and cool atmosphere. Overall, we had a nice lunch date.“

“Great location near University of Tampa...pick any sandwich from the menu and it's a winner! Hand made while you watch. Roll choices are excellent. Even though they were busy, the staff worked together and got all customer's orders out quickly and Correct! “
