Sandwich Shops near Oak Brook

“I was in town on business, staying at a hotel across the street, and looking for a quick dinner to go. I decided to try Corner Bakery for the first time and ordered the Albacore Tuna Salad sandwich based on an employee's recommendation. The sandwich was fresh and delicious, and the staff was polite and professional. Excellent experience.“

“Whenever I step into Potbelly Sandwich Shop at Oak Brook Mall, Terrion Meyers consistently stands out. He’s attentive, genuinely kind, and always on point with every order.
I’m usually there for catering pickups, and he keeps everything smooth with timely updates, clear communication, and the kind of confidence that makes the whole experience effortless.
That level of customer service is rare in 2026. Terrion doesn’t just do the job, he elevates it. Give Terrion a raise🤑“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“They make the best soups, sandwiches and meals. They have daily specials too!“

“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“

“Good food and friendly staff.“

“Got the tuna sandwich and it was INCREDIBLE. I'm not much of a sandwich person (or even a meat/cold cut person) but when I tell you both of our sandwiches from here were delicious. They don't skimp on ingredients either; we got the medium size and we will both have half leftover for another meal. The oil & vinegar combo they put on is so good.
It's a small thing, but they also wrapped our sandwiches in this really cute paper which made everything even more delightful.
10/10 no notes, we will be back.“

“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.“

“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.“

“The best subway!!! Their subs tastes better compared to other subway, not only they're behind counter is always clean, the store itself is very clean, and very friendly staff, saroj, vj, bhie, and mega. as well as the owner (chavda) himself.“

“Big fan of the variety in selection & love the daily deals they have!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“It’s such a refreshing thing to be able to come into a store and receive such professionalism especially in a day where sometimes customer service can seem to be a lost art to some. Thank you Subway for still caring for things that matter the most, people.“

“This subway is right around the corner from my house and every single time I pick up or come in to order, the people working are always so kind and make my sandwiches how I want them!! Tonight, there were two women working, both very sweet and kind, and they were very attentive even though they were busy! I appreciate them, please be kind when you eat there. :)“

“Ignore what all the 1 star reviews are saying because this Subway is just as good, if not quicker and cleaner than a lot of other ones I have been too. It’s got plenty of seating, the staff is friendly and quick in preparing the food properly. Great location and have never had an issue with them or the service. Tastes great. Ready quick. Great price.“

“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.“

“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!“

“FOOD WAS DELICIOUS as always!!!
First time at THIS location, and I must say they set the bar High! Clean Place , great staff!
The food was absolutely delicious!
Thank you to Israel and all the Cooks too. Food was HOT n FRESH!
10/10“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

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

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

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

“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.“

“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.“

“I haven't been to subway in YEARS! With the app things are more affordable. Tuesday I liked my sandwich. Today I LOVE my sandwich!! The gentlemen there whos name I regrettably didn't get was so nice. He said he did everything really well as far as what I asked for. Gave me extra packets of vinegar and said that was the best Subway around. Haha He wasnt kidding. I actually have extra of the veggies I requested & a good amount of seasoning/dressings. It's been a long week & I needed this win. Thank you Sir!“

“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“

“Always GREAT FOOD ! They were SUPER BUSY , The women running the register was GREAT !!! SHE WAS HAPPY , ACCURATE, HONEST AND SHOULD BE APPRECIATED for her hard work ! Its NOT often you get GREAT customer service these days she was an absolute 5 STAR !“

“Always fresh, always delicious! The subs here are packed with flavor & quality ingredients. The bread is soft & fresh, & they’re generous with the toppings. Definitely my go-to spot when I’m craving a good sandwich. I got my coworkers hooked on it & now my family too!“

“Asked for "everything except no mayo" on my sandwich. Poor lady started by putting mayo on it (probably out of habit since most folks want mayo) before realizing her mistake - even before I did. She apologized profusely and had them remake me a sandwich. It was literally the most minor inconvenience in the world that cost me a whopping 2 minutes of added wait time, but they still snuck a free chocolate chip cookie in my bag. Completely unnecessary but much appreciated! Yay for people who actually care about their customers (even though, again, in this case, it barely even qualified as an inconvenience to me, lol). Also the sandwich was delicious!“

“Had a great experience at Subway today. Sreeya provided excellent service, was very friendly, and prepared my sandwich perfectly. The restaurant was clean, the ingredients were fresh, and the overall experience was fantastic. Thank you Sreeya for the great service!“

“Had a great experience at Subway in Hickory Hills! Jay went above and beyond to take care of us. The food was fresh, well-made, and you could tell quality was a priority. I was there with my kids, and he even gave them a cookie on the house — such a kind gesture.

Jay was very friendly, professional, and genuinely welcoming. The restaurant itself was spotless — clean, neat, and no unpleasant smells at all.

Highly recommend this location. Excellent service and great food!“

“They are short staffed during this pandemic. Give them a break geez ?“

“Very nice food“

“I go there with my friends together!!!“

“I reached the Subway just a few minutes before closing time, and honestly, I wasn’t sure if they’d even take my order. But the guy working there was really nice, he took my order without any attitude, and prepared everything fresh just like it was the middle of the day. I really appreciate his positive attitude and great service, even at the end of a long shift. It’s small gestures like this that make a big difference.“

“Loving it! Winning big with my favorite Tonya“

“I'm traveling for work, just landed in Chicago, went to go to the USO, and was told, as a veteran having had deployed to Iraq, that I am not allowed in the USO by some civilian. That's wild. Guy said he needed DoD id, then I pointed to where my member ID was. He said not good enough and told me I had to leave. I've gone to a lot of USO's and never been turned away as a vet.“

“I tried Charleys Philly Steaks for a second time. First time I had their wings. Today, I decided to try their Philly Cheesesteak sandwich. Normally I give a review on the food. Today, I want to highlight an example of Customer Service at its best. As I was waking to my table, I tripped and my food ended up on the floor. Initially, I was hesitant to ask for a replacement. I went ahead and did it anyways. The worker that took my initial order listened to my misfortune and, without hesitation, took care of me. No fuss, no negative expression, no additional explanation. He just took care of it. He provided a fresh sandwich and fresh fries. Mind you, he was already attentive and had a positive attitude with customers before me. Oh and my initial order was ready within 5 minutes. The staff is fast. Some can say or argue that the customer is always right but I do feel that a customer is right within reason. Charleys is inside the mall within the food court. The food court is well maintained and clean. If you happen to be shopping and consider a bite to eat, check out Charleys.“
