Best sandwiches in town, and the kaleidoscope of musical acts is spectacular.

Very nice open floor plan. I like the fact that everything is like a booth with the picnic tables. The hot dogs were good I really like the Chicago I was expecting that. The chili one was nice and warm unexpected.

I went to Booby’s expecting a good sandwich. I left questioning every sandwich I’ve ever loved before this.

This place doesn’t make sandwiches. It redefines them. Perfectly balanced, unapologetically stacked, and somehow every bite tastes like the one you keep chasing but never quite find… until now. The bread? Elite. The fillings? Thoughtfully chosen. The flavor? Loud, confident, and unforgettable.

I’ve eaten a lot of sandwiches in my life. This is, without exaggeration, the best sandwich I’ve ever had. The kind that ruins other sandwiches for you. The kind you think about later. The kind you’d defend in a heated argument.

If you haven’t been to Booby’s, go. If you have been, you already know.

First time eating Boobys today because everyone and their mom swears by this restaurant & upon opening my sandwich, my mouth watered sooo much. To no surprise at all, my sandwich is BURSTING with flavor. 10/10. 🙂

My fiancés band plays here frequently and its an incredible atmosphere and all around a good time. Good people, good food, good music! I'd most definitely recommend if you're wanting to get out of the house and do something fun! Come hang out and listen to music!

I’m sure it would’ve been good if I could’ve got some service. I walked in and sat at the bar. There were several people in there. No one looked at me. No one greeted me. No one asked me if I wanted anything so I left. Will not go back! They need to learn what customer service means.

Booby's is back! It's the same amazing sandwiches you remember from the 90s and the same groovy beer garden with cement chairs. Go check em out!

My husband and I recently went to this awesome restaurant & bar on the way to a weekend outing with a group. The sandwiches were so good that we went back the next day with our group! The service was great, and the friendliness was top-notch!

Cruddy. The restroom was not clean, not even remotely. The front door was dirty too. It's hard to keep up sometimes but this was unusually poor condition. Thank you.
