50 Best Sandwich Shops near Franklin Park

“Best sandwiches in Chicagoland! I live 50 minutes from here and I make this commute at least once every 2 weeks to get a sandwich. I started going here almost 20 years ago. Friendly staff, and incredible sandwiches. For the love of god, get the oil!“

“I had a bad experience with a different Jersey Mike's with customer service, liking the sandwich I went to this location. Everything was excellent. This will be my new store. Connor and his crew were great.“

“I dine in this nice place many times a year! This is my favorite spot to pass a nice evening. I go to this spot at least once a month. The meals are fantastic, the staff is friendly and the prices are affordable. I enjoy being in this restaurant for a nice dinner.“

“This place is a gem. Family-run business. Friendly, personable service. The place is very well-maintained. The layout of the store is very appealing, and the fact of a 24-hour Subway inside a gas station/mini-mart on a busy corner in a hotel zone with neighborhoods nearby makes the place indispensable. Nice selection of basic phone cords and chargers, along with other expected items. The locals I saw coming and going seemed to appreciate it as well. I wish these folks the very best. 5 stars all around…“

“I saw the Choula and Lime ad on social media and came into to have a Philly cheesesteak with that flavoring. Jack who was working during the freezing weather conditions let me know it was only used for a wings rub but said he could try to make it as a cheese steak by mixing butter instead! He was very friendly and accommodating, willing to go above and beyond to help me. They were also closing soon and I was going to take my meal to go but he insisted that my partner and i dined in so the food stayed warm. Absolutely made my night because I got exactly what I wanted and it was a delicious cheesesteak!“

“I was coming into Walmart to purchase some juice when I noticed Charley’s Cheesesteak inside. It was lunchtime so I decided to grab a bite to eat. I was greeted by Afeera and she so kind and helpful. I was undecided on what to get to so she gave me suggestions. The food was great. It was very hot and fresh. I will be returning again. Also, I download the app and was able to get points for my purchase and a deal on meal. Great job Charley’s Cheesesteak“

“The food is delicious here! The only thing is that the prices are high. It cost me $50 for myself and 2 kids to eat here. It also looks like this place is located in a gas station due to its location but would highly recommend visiting here!“

“The food there is delicious, fresh and well worth the money. I had ordered 5 meals from their and the price really was a wonderful surprise. It was a lot cheaper than I thought it was going to be. The staff there was very professional and the wait for my food was very fast and accurate. Great food, wonderful employees. I will definitely be eating there again real soon. I will take my son with me because he really loved the food.“

“One of my wife and I’s favorite spots. If you’re in the area, this is a must.“

“just had dinner at this location, used the restroom and a cockroach came crawling under the door the size of a coin dollar & i have a video of it for those who dont believe me. i will not be coming back my stomach is turned upside down & i feel so sick right now.“

“I’ve been eager to try Mortadeli since it first opened, and after hearing so many rave reviews, I finally had the chance to stop by for lunch yesterday. Let me tell you, everything everyone says about this place is spot on! First off, the food is absolutely delicious. Everything on the menu is so tempting, it was hard to choose, but I went with the meatball sub and pasta salad. As someone whose grandmother made the best meatball sandwiches, my expectations were high – but Mortadeli’s version did not disappoint! It was fantastic. The pasta salad was also amazing, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The atmosphere at Mortadeli is incredibly inviting – it strikes the perfect balance between classy and cozy. The staff are very friendly, and you can tell they genuinely care about making your experience special. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff and quick delivery of our food. One of the owners even took the time to chat with us a bit. Another pleasant surprise was the parking – I had my doubts at first, but we found a spot just around the corner with no problem at all. Overall, the experience was fantastic, and I’ll definitely be back. Mortadeli is a must-visit!“

“This place has pepper/egg sandwiches every day of the week during lent season. 👏👏👏😍😍😍“

“Great experience, delicious food , appetizers and desserts. I like the decor in old style . It’s very convenient location , just a few steps from the CTA blue line. German beer is great and a lot of cocktails to choose from. Our Polish waiter Krzys ( Chris ) was very nice and patient . Thank you“

“I work for ALDI corporate, and we've had Rammys cater our team building event in Elk Grove for three years now. Their subs are AMAZING, they are a breeze to work with and so friendly. My group loves the subs, the bread is fresh and don't get me started on the turtle brownies. On a personal note, the tuna sub is superb. Im very picky about tuna salad and I loved every bite. Run, do not walk, to Rammys.“

“Sam runs an amazing place! Super friendly, and the subs are PHENOMENAL!“

“the food is great service is very friendly and the place is clean“

“I got a sandwich catering order from Starship, and ordered online a couple of weeks in advance. The order was delivered exactly on time, and was delicious. Catering sandwiches were cut in a great way, small enough where each person could have 2-3 sandwiches. Would recommend!“

“OMG, my sandwich was so good & so fresh. Love the bread! I went to Jimmy John's a couple of weeks ago & there was exactly 1 slice of turkey on my sandwich. Fontano's had 4 times the amount of meat on my sandwich for the same size sandwich.“

“Amazing Products, Amazing Knowledge of It's Products. Customer service is phenomenal. And we will definitely be back without a doubt.“

“Sub-tender use to be the place for a great sub. I've ordered here for a party years ago. Now don't get me wrong, the subs are delicious but id you get more then 3 things slices of meat that's a good day. I know the economy if rough but dang. You better like bread because that's all you really getting $7. I get the turkey combo for 14.00 with tax because I can fill up on the fries 🍟 and soda.“

“LOVE this place 😍...wish they would open one closer to me, I travel 3 hours to get my fix .. probably should move back to the area lol ..so much cheaper than the S-Way place ..and better, always crowded ..“

“Great sandwiches , great home made soups, brick oven pizzas, Gelato, Italian cookies and imported lunch meat. place is fantastic. today I got the pork bracciole on garlic bread with hot giardinaria and provolone. that just might have been thee best sandwich I ever had.“

“Gabby is the best, every time I come in here she treats my family and I like we are part of her family. Smilling faces and great attitudes make coming in here a pleasure, even when we are waiting in line. I should have filled one of these surveys out a few visits before.“

“Let me start with this…. I very rarely write reviews. When I do, it’s usually because the service/company was so disappointingly bad or the other end of that spectrum, which is absolutely superior - service/experience. This will be the latter. What an awesome experience. The food was great and the store was very clean. But what really set this Subway branch apart are the staff or perhaps the owners (not so sure) who took care of me and my mom. Super nice people, very friendly and warm and above all, very accommodating and welcoming. This will not be my last time here for sure.“

“Love this place! Every sandwich is delicious! Plz update your website with a better quality menu. You can’t really read anything on it, your website is great besides that. Every time I’ve ordered it’s been a guessing game, but that’s how I know everything is great!“

“I really enjoy the classic philly cheesesteak. Skylar was really nice and asked me whether I wanted a medium or large combo which I appreciated- go big or go home haha. I really enjoy the freshness and the melt in your mouth cheesesteak. It always hits the spot. Can't wait to come back.“

“always fresh food and friendly customer servers. yummmy food“

“It’s unreal how good it is if you have the ability to wait for 5 minutes and my burger lasted for like a minute before I devoured it and it was so delicious I couldn’t even get it out of my brain and my dad proceeded to wolf down his sandwich and you should totally come here if you’re ever in Chicago“

“Came on Christmas Day, lady behind the counter was very kind. Greeted my boyfriend and I right as we walked in. And proceeded to make the most scrumptious, deliciously packed subs. I definitely would recommend.

Parking: Free parking in the back!“

“This is a great location and lots of seating inside. Doesn’t feel small like other locations. Super friendly service and as always great food. I plan on patronizing this location again very soon!“

“Nothing!!! This has to be the ABSOLUTE WORST Jersey Mike’s I have ever dealt with!!! Can’t get anyone on the phone to help w a mobile app order……didn’t even get the food we paid for!!!“

“This was my first time eating here. I ordered off DoorDash….. sandwiches after a long day makes me happy. And this was the absolute best sandwich I’d ever tasted! Moving forward when I want sandwiches Jersey Mikes will be my go to place.“

“To be fair, it was about an hour before closing time. However, the older lady was very sweet and made our food very well and it was delicious. Her coworker on the other hand didn't seem to friendly. We wanted to add to our order and she couldn't even be bothered to stop sweeping to come and complete the transaction until the older lady had already finished making the 1st part of the order. I have worked in hospitality all my life. I know how she felt but if she want customers to return and ensure job security for her, she should be a little more friendly and willing to assist.“

“I won't go to any other sub place!
They are always so generous with their servings. Fresh and great taste.
Michael was super friendly.
Just had an overall happiness about him. It's really great to see happy workers makes you want to go back.
To that location.“

“Sure! I had an amazing experience at Mr. Submarine at 8542 Ogden Ave in Lyons, IL. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm, friendly service that made me feel truly welcomed. The staff was attentive, polite, and eager to make sure I had everything I needed, which really stood out.

I ordered a combo sub and a pizza puff, and I have to say, it was exactly what I needed. The food came out fast and fresh, which was a relief since it was the first thing I had eaten all day. The combo sub was packed with flavor, with perfectly sliced meats, fresh toppings, and just the right amount of seasoning. The bread was soft yet sturdy, holding everything together without getting soggy. The pizza puff was crispy, cheesy, and delicious, adding the perfect touch to my meal.

Not only was the food top-notch, but the overall experience was fantastic. The staff really goes the extra mile to ensure customers leave happy, and that level of service is rare to find these days. I left feeling completely satisfied and already looking forward to my next visit. If you’re in the area and looking for great food, quick service, and a welcoming atmosphere, Mr. Submarine is the place to go!“

“just had dinner at this location, used the restroom and a cockroach came crawling under the door the size of a coin dollar & i have a video of it for those who dont believe me. i will not be coming back my stomach is turned upside down & i feel so sick right now.“

“Drove past this location while heading home- and I instantly busted a u-turn!!

Maria informed me of a deal that was going on and helped me save some coins. Thank you, girly!!

The food was fresh. The establishment was clean and welcoming. They have drive-thru but I insisted to walk in. Not a lot Mr. Submarine have the extended menu (philly/chicken cheesesteak, specialty fries, salads, etc)

Going back again… today! Lbs!“

“Favorite place. Super delicious 😋“

“EVER SINCE MY COWORKER BROUGHT ME HERE, I DON'T GO ANYWHERE ELSE FOR SANDWICHES!!! THIS PLACE KNOWS SUBS!! AND THE PEOPLE THAT WORK THERE, ALWAYS FRIENDLY AND ALSWAYS HELPFUL WHEN ORDERING FOR LARGE GROUPS. THE GUY THAT MAKES THE SANDWICHES IS A MASTER!!! ALWAYS MADE RIGHT!!! PLUS TRIED THE LASAGNA, MIND BLOWING!!!“

“Go every time I'm in the area. Grilled pastrami Reuben“

“One of the best sub restaurants on the west side it has the freshest bread not overly covered in semolina or corn meal the ingredients aren’t just tossed on but fresh as well i highly recommend even the Sandwich king Jeff Mauro has claimed it to be the best gum shoe sandwich ever“

“Fresh Fresh Fresh, l got the Philly chicken and bread and all was hot and fresh. I will recommend throw in a FEW FRIES… Very friendly staff a lil wait for the fresh cook to order. Support this location, I would love to see them stick around.“

“Usually love it, but put Mayo & mustard on the 8 subs I bought when I specifically said NO.... TOO far away to return 😣😢😠“

“Mr. Submarine continues to serve up delicious, satisfying food that keeps me coming back. Their subs are consistently fresh, generously portioned, and packed with flavor. Whether I’m ordering a classic Italian, turkey and cheese, or a hot Philly steak, the bread is always soft and fresh, and the ingredients taste high quality. Their fries and sides also hit the spot — crispy, hot, and well-seasoned. It’s clear that the kitchen staff takes pride in preparing solid, reliable meals that deliver on taste every time.

However, the customer service could definitely use improvement. On several visits, I’ve experienced long wait times and a lack of attentiveness from the staff. Orders are sometimes taken with minimal communication or eye contact, and there’s often a sense of being rushed even when the store isn’t busy. It doesn’t ruin the experience, but it does make it feel less welcoming than it could be.

A little extra friendliness and better organization at the front counter would go a long way in making Mr. Submarine a top-tier spot all around. The food already speaks for itself — now it’s time for the customer service to catch up. With a few adjustments, this place could be truly exceptional.“

“very good sandwiches and I love sweet tea“

“I love this place. The cashier was very nice taking my order. The employees we're friendly and courteous. The food was delicious. Me and my mom enjoy our sandwich. Definitely yes will go back and eat againg.“

“Better sandwiches than Subway Jimmy John’s and another places 🤤“

“Like the JM Vegie sub :-)“

“I’ve been coming to this Subway pretty often and it’s easily one of the best locations around. The guy working there is always cool, welcoming, and makes the experience better every time I stop in.

The whole staff is consistently friendly and respectful, and you can tell they actually care about the customers. Service is always quick, and my food is made exactly how I want it every single time.

It’s rare to find a place this consistent. Definitely my go-to Subway and I’ll keep coming back for sure.“

“I love ordering great food from this specific Jimmy Johns because the ingredients taste so fresh and I have always had excellent customer service experiences there. The blonde tall guy with blue eyes who works the front counter has always been hella nice to me ever since i first stepped foot in there, and he's not too bad on the eyes as well, which is a plus ;) I wouldnt mind taking him for a ride on my Ninja 400 some time and maybe taking a trip to another Jimmy Johns store for food! X,D He likes my hat too! :3“
