10 Best Sandwich Shops in Athens

“Perfect downtown location!! Super yummy bagel sandwiches!! I didn’t even know you could steam a bagel and this place 100% proves why you should!! Very yummy and filling. Perfect for that 30min lunch break or that cute date. 1st visit was soo good that I had a lunch date with the hubby the next day and now he’s hooked 🥯“

“Ok, we go here a lot. A great place for soups, salads and sandwiches. Friendly place.“

“I went at a pretty slow time for a quick lunch and was very happy with my sandwich! The Magic Mushroom as a Pinner was packed full, a perfect portion, toasted well and made promptly. The service was friendly and the place was clean and inviting. I've had them before via food apps but they're definitely worth getting in person and supporting directly. I'll be back!“

“They have the best subs hands down 🔥“

“The staff is friendly and personal. Great selection of subs. Several options of our favorites (e.g., Italians, pastrami, corned beef, etc.). Lots of seating when the overflow is open. Looking forward to popping by the next time we are over that way.“

“As a busy Realtor in Athens, GA, I need a good healthier lunch location in between appointments. That is why I highly recommend the Chicken Salad Chick! There chicken salad is fresh, and they have many different flavors. I often get an extra large container of the chicken salad to take home that we enjoy at home as well.

“Firehouse is ALWAYS right on target, with the flavor, the temps, and the customization. They have never let me down and I've been a customer for years. On top of that, they support Firefighters and their families, along with their communities. So Firehouse, IMO, is hands down the BEST chain Sub shop out there!“

“I had the choose 2, I got 1/2 avocado BLT and potato soup. The BLT was good but the soup didn’t have much flavor and seemed thin for potato soup.
The other person with me got the Ham & Cheese melt and said it was delicious.
The staff was nice. We spent $30 for lunch, which seemed a little high for sandwiches and soup.“

“I’ve never had a bad experience at this location. Great service and hard working employees. I go here an average of twice a week. Can’t beat it at its location.“

“I have been eating Schlotzsky’s Original Deluxe sandwich since 1993. It is the best sandwich I have ever eaten and I have been in 30+ states and at least 7 other countries. And to make it tastes even better I add their hot sauce. Their Cinnabon’s are great too. When you’ve tried all the rest, try the best- Schlotzsky’s. 🤠“
