20 Best Sandwich Shops in Cedar Rapids

“Great food at a fare price“

“This is the one and only Quiznos in Cedar Rapids, IA. We go here every chance we get - there is always a $5 daily special and the food is fresh and hot. I can tell it's well run by the lack of turnover among the staff. The employees know what we want on our subs already and they almost always have some kind of promotion going. The manager, Clinton I believe, is super friendly and sets a good example. I highly recommend this location!“

“I am guilty of being one of those procrastinators that see Capriotti's near Best Buy here in Cedar Rapids every time I drive by and keep driving. I kept telling myself that I was going to stop in one day. Well, I didn't stop in today, BUT I did order online for delivery. I have some contractors working on my home at this time. Last week they went to Capriotti's for lunch. I asked them how they liked it and they gave a good review. Then, today, I saw a review online and they were raving about the Hot Bobbie (which is the sandwich I have been wanting to try). I ordered the Hot Bobbie and I was very pleased. It is delicious! I ordered a side of turkey gravy and it was the "icing on the cake". If you are like me and are still procrastinating, please don't. I honestly believe you will not be disappointed. Very good & I highly recommend.“

“The subs were unbelievably delicious and the store was clean , employees smiling and did their jobs awesome... will be back soon !“

“Delicious food, great service and people at 1st Avenue, Cedar Rapids location. Yum!“

“I have heard of this on commercials. so naturally I had to try. they welcomed me in, let me choose my sandwich. (which I recommend getting #8). I tried it Mike's way. it's the BEST sub I have ever had. and I was not sure what to expect. I used to love subway, then for what ever reason something changed. so I tried Casey's subs. They were ok. but still missing something. I found it . Go eat at Jerseys Mike. you will not regret it.“

“🔥 Shoutout to Zack and his crew at Firehouse Subs! 🔥 Not only were the subs amazing (as always), but the service was next-level. Zack and the team were super friendly, fast, and made the whole experience awesome. You can tell they really care about what they do—and it shows. If you’re craving a great sub AND great vibes, this is the spot. Big thanks to Zack & crew for making lunch the highlight of my day! 🙌🥪❤️“

“I just love the veggie delight n veggie patty salads, OMG so yummy n I put avacado n guacamole for sauce I can't wait to get again thanks 😊“

“Everyone working today around noon were absolutely amazing. They were very patient with our children as they were figuring out what they wanted. It was very busy but they made us feel like they were just focusing on us. We did not stand in line for very long even though the line was to the door. The food was amazing and tasted fresh. All the way around the moment we walked in it was a great experience and we found our new Subway we will be going to from now on.“

“My bestie, and our friends love to come here. Best place for a GOOD cocktail, and great food. Just sat on the patio for the first time this season, amazing service and food. Dubai Chocolate Dessert was AMAZING!!!“

“I usually expect mediocrity when I go to a fast food establishment. I was pleasantly surprised by this Subway. The store was super busy but the worker behind the counter flew through the line and I got my food quick. I got a meatball sub and it was legit the best one I've ever had. The lady making my food was super upbeat and seemed like she was actually happy to be doing what she was doing, which is EXTREMELY rare in this day and age. Usually people act miserable to be doing their jobs, but the staff I dealt with were very personable and it definitely made a difference in the experience. Will be driving across town just to come back to this Subway! Keep up the great service!“

“I've visited this Subway location for years. It's generally good.

I want to recognize Rachel, who made 3 beautiful Subway Club sandwiches for my order on 3/31/26 during a busy lunch hour.

Thanks Rachel!“

“Best Subway experience in years, and we've had some solid ones. The sandwich artist did an effective job engaging as customers while skillfully fulfilling our orders. Portions on point, veggies are fresh, store is very clean, staff is attentive. Recommend.“

“I have not been to this Subway in years and it was such a pleasant experience. Employee Megan (dont know if I spelled that right) created my online order that morning, it was a breakfast footlong that was exceptional. It was satisfying to see my tomatoes perfectly lined up and seasoned. The store was tidy and well lit. The sandwich station was clean, crisp and vibrant. Megan was kind, very thorough with answering my questions and efficient with serving the customers.
Most definitely coming back to this location🤞🏽“

“Close to work Robinson very convenient for me. Drive through is great but if the line is too long, it's easy to park and walk in. Employees always greet me and are fast so I can get back to on time. I never ate in the restaurant but it always looks clean and neat.“

“The people are amazing, chill, funny, comforting, and much more. I’m a bit of a regular and every time I come in there super late or super early, they’re always cheerful and happy to see me.

So 10/10 would recommend.“

“I have them deliver at least twice a week and Highly recommend them. Awesome service and get my order every time. kudos to the delivery drivers“

“I went to this location yesterday (Sunday, December 28) for lunch and the gal behind the counter appeared to be the only one there but you would have never known. She was outstanding....she didn't miss a beat making my wrap and my husband's sandwich and was incredibly friendly. It's nice to walk into a location that is still providing great customer service....it's incredibly rare these days. I wish I could remember her name but around 12:30pm Sunday was when I was there.“

“Went in late on a Friday afternoon: not the cleanest location I've ever visited. Guacamole looked horrible, lettuce was brown around the edges.

Got a foot long meatball sub instead, kid working put a huge amount of meat and full slices of cheese on the sandwich. Don't see that in other places. Sandwich was screaming hot too.

Little cleaning and this place would be alright.“
