50 Best Sandwich Shops near Lyons

“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!“

“We had dinner delivered tonight. It came fast and it was hot. We ordered a Cuban sandwich, turkey with bacon, a horseshoe sandwich, Mac and cheese and a kids Dino grilled cheese with the best french fries! We totally recommend TriBecca's Sandwich Shop and give it a 10 plus!“

“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!“

“Best Sandwiches in Chicago!!!“

“Peppo's came through for our unit when we needed to feed an entire squad! This was our first time with Peppo's and it was great! We definitely will be ordering from here again.“

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

“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.“

“100/10 every time, at ANY location in any state 🥳“

“Subs are made with high quality meats and toppings and love the selection on tap.“

“Grabbed 5 boxes for our firehouse lunch today—Italian, ham & cheese, turkey & swiss, chicken parm, and the standout Al Pacino. Sandwiches were fresh, packed with great ingredients, and the 3-inch cuts in boxes of 12 were perfect for sharing a variety. Packaging was flawless. Rosie's Sidekick in Logan Square nailed it—can't wait to order again!“

“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“

“My daughter had the cheese sticks and fries. I had a grilled chicken sandwich with fries. The fries are definitely so good.. my chicken sandwich seemed like it was made sloppy with that lettuce. Just throw it all over there and two pieces of chicken breast. No cheese.
And that was it. The location is decent and the restaurant was clean. 🫶🏿“

“A longtime gem. Under newer ownership, the food is just as good as the original. Check out the freezer filled with an assortment of their amazing soups! Service isn't the fastest, but food is prepared as ordered. Decor is fun (Star Trek!), although starting to show its age (the poster of Mr Spock in the ladies room is getting ragged). Parking is a bear, many of the nearby spots must be paid online.“

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

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

“The subs here are amazing—great cuts of meat, excellent flavor, and overall really high quality. My only complaint is the salad. I ordered one and it was mediocre at best: basically just shredded iceberg with a handful of black olives, a few pickles, and some cucumbers. For nearly $8, it felt like a rip-off considering I could’ve bought a whole bag of shredded iceberg at Juul for about a dollar. Iceberg doesn’t have flavor (it’s basically water), and while their vinaigrettes are delicious, they’d be much better served over a spring mix or microgreens. Bottom line: go here for the subs—the meatballs especially are phenomenal, I’d eat a whole bowl of them with gravy. But skip the salad, it’s not worth it.“

“Great place for your favorite sub, mines the Italian for sure! Get yourself in here, you don't know what your missing. I've been coming here for over 35 years, it's a must stop for me , when I come in for a Cubs game from Rockford.
TnT“

“Suffering from the flu so my wife brought home chicken & dumplings soup from Rosalia’s. Best soup I’ve had in a long time. Not greasy, not salty, tons of shredded chicken. Reminded me of my grandma’s soup. Absolutely delicious! Highly recommend. Tasted truly homemade.“

“A lovely downtown sandwich shop. We got an Avocado BLT, Shrimp and Crab Roll, Turkey Club, and a Cubano. Everyone loved their sandwich and enjoyed the ice cream dessert too. Staff was very helpful and I loved the style of the restaurant. Our only critical comment was the turkey club could have used more bacon (which was delicious). We can't wait to come back!“

“First time in Jersey mikes big guy kinda gave me a worry not going to lie but as soon as he started talking to me walking me thru the Jersey mikes experience I was hooked line N sinker. Lol . About a week ago came in and he gave me the best experience while also handling the two other customers behind me with the same great attitude this kid is frightening at first with his size and blank stares at first until you fully come inside the restaurant and he greets you like your the most important person he’s seen all day don’t remember his name but he’s the bigger guy asked me to leave a review about his service and I can say it was very much a great experience wasn’t to happy about pricing but he also insured me I’m paying for quality and man was that number 42 one of the best Philly chickens I’ve had in a while keep up the good work kid and smile a little more“

“Ive been to almost alll Submmarines but this one takes it for the win! They were so welcoming and friendly and super clean for a small sandwich shop. Not only do they have a wide variety for subs and add ons but they also sell hot dogs , italian beefs , burgers and pizza puffs as well as so many side options from fries to mac n cheese bites! Give it a try and you wont regret it! Super clean , very nice family people 10/10And at the end the nice gentleman gave my daughter a free lollipop!

PLUS TRIED THE LASAGNA, MIND BLOWING!!!“

“Some locations continue to receive praise for friendly, attentive employees who make efforts to get orders right—even during busy times. Instances of staff remembering repeat customers by name or going the extra mile for large orders were noted“

“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.“

“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.“

“The food is tasty but I was shocked by the quantity of meat in my gyros plate. It was just a gyros sandwich in a container with fries and fixings. Everywhere else I get a gyros plate it has enough meat for 2 or 3 sandwiches.the subs seemed to be lacking meat as well. Again first time getting it there and was just surprised.“

“They are awesome. Great traditional old fashion filling sandwiches. And the fries are really good too OH the shakes are the tastiest around. The delivery service is top notch and they are so nice. Tip them well. They are very special people. 4stars.

Parking: Small“

“My middle daughter told me about this place and she wanted me to bring her a gym shoe sandwich actually 2. I tasted it when I got up to Washington and wow it was good. So when I got back to Chicago I went and bought one and I took my girlfriend with me and bought her one as well. We both enjoyed it immensely.“

“Got a cold sub with toasted bread at the suggestion of the owner and it was delightful. Excellent fries and overall very friendly and fresh.

Vegetarian options: Has a hot veggie sub (not just salad in bread but actual cooked veg. 🤤)“

“Been ordering from this location from years since 2015 when I live in the area. Now I order off UberEats because I don’t live in the area. Slightly confuse to the negative reviews. During the years I have receive nothing but great quality fresh sandwiches and salads from this location. Highly recommend people to use this location.“

“Love this place! Sandwiches are so filling and the flavor from the CBLT was amazing! I can’t wait to come back to try some of the breakfast items too. The cookies also are so carefully crafted and so large they’re easily some of my favorites“

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

“Anyone that doesn’t give this legendary sandwich establishment 5 stars is wild. Best Beef I have had so far. The truth is the Chicago beef doesn’t get enough credit. This place does it right. Juicy, fresh and make sure you get it dipped!“
