50 Best Sandwich Shops near Charlestown

“I love this place and always eat lunch here when in Boston.“

“First time there the food was great would recommend to anyone who is in Boston.“

“On the slightly pricier side for a takeout (there is no sitting area and even standing to order or wait was a little tight). Service was fast and friendly. Food was nice and pleasant- not life changing. I would definitely revisit if near but not smth I would make a special trip for“

“Genuinely the best breakfast sandwich I have ever had and up there with some of my all time favorite things I’ve ever eaten. It’s very clear the owner puts so much effort, love, and care into making really delicious and hearty food.

Can’t recommend enough!

It is important to note that it’s take out only, but you’re right in Davis so the location could not be more perfect for sitting in the shade to enjoy your treats :)“

“Perfect little sub shop in Backbay. We opted for the Italian Sub to go. The atmosphere was awesome with a lot of locals getting what seemed to be a regular daily lunch meal. The staff and customers seemed to know each other and a sense of community was ever so prevalent. The food itself was outstanding, even after a 5 hour train ride it traveled with us to ur next stop. Highly recommend this place. Truly a diamond in the rough.“

“Lovely spot, thoroughly enjoyed my fish & chips, the DJ was also great!“

“Haven't been to this place in years but, boy sm I glad I did. Got a steak onion and cheese sub at 8 AM, because I could order that at what would be other shops " Breakfast only" time. Nice soft roll ,steak NOT chopped to oblivious gravel like other shops. This spot IS the spot for a steak and cheese . I'm gonna go back and try all the ol standards again done right. Kudos. Can't wait to try a simple hit dog. Believe it or not, people screw that up . But according to the reviews I've seen, they're done just right. It's really nice to know that these non pretentecious simply good food places still do exist.“

“Sandwich was great Service excellent“

“Toasted flats is excellent. I love their food, smoothies, and fresh pressed juices. If you’re looking healthy yet filling and delicious breakfast/brunch/lunch, do try toasted flats! All time favourite is the Bon dia flat and the berry smoothie.“

““ Masterpieces in the form of Sandwiches “ These people @ Michael’s Deli don’t make sandwiches they make masterpieces. When my immigrant parents said “ Study Hard” they meant so I can live in a neighborhood that serves sandwiches like those found at Michael’s Deli. Even if you don’t live close take the train , fly , drive or walk . These sandwiches are phenomenal.“

“Had the wild mushroom pizza. Absolutely delicious Fries were also delicious But the chocolate cake and vegan vanilla ice cream cream was to die for! Highly recommend“

“Great pizza and fantastic service. Taylor is super nice and made us feel welcome, being so far from home 🙂“

“Visited the Subway location at 4238-4244 Washington St, Roslindale, MA, and had a really great experience. Even though there was a heavy rush, Komal Patel handled everything very professionally and stayed friendly and patient with customers. She made my order perfectly, the service was quick, and the food tasted fresh. The staff managed the busy crowd really well. Definitely one of the best Subway experiences I’ve had. Highly recommend this location!“

“If you’re in Boston and craving a seriously good sandwich, you’ve got to check out Figaro’s Sandwich Shop. Everything is fresh, piled high, and packed with flavor. The bread is perfect, the ingredients taste top quality, and the portions are more than generous. The staff is friendly and keeps things moving, even when it’s busy. Honestly, this place is wicked good. Whether you’re grabbing lunch on the go or meeting up with friends, Figaro’s never disappoints. Definitely one of my go-to spots in the city!“

“I found Rick's 11a Cafe to be a very rewarding experience. I enjoyed the triple Decker turkey club sandwich. Very generous portion of turkey. Extremely satisfied. I would definitely give this little hole in the wall five stars all day. Very personable and friendly at the counter“

“I’ve been coming here my entire life 25 years old, but I had the best experience so far as in this week the pretty woman managers has always had their neck out for me and then Nick the shift lead really helped me out with a coupon despite not being valid or something like that, but since I came in Twice earlier that week. I got the coupon at New England fan Fest in Swansea mass from D’Angelo’s customer service rep. They were able to give me a 20% discount not the full coupon and Elijah did whatever it took to help me out awesome staff. Also random but back in 2008 there was a blonde, white haired gentleman named Dick, who was the manager. He was pretty awesome. He would give us a tour of the place.“

“Definitely will order from here again,Meatballs are perfect and sauce is superb!“

“Omg that Chickanella sandwich was the best thing I’ve had! The cutlet,the sauce the bacon delish every bite!“

“Thank you for a nice chicken parm dinner. It was very good and a nice portion. I'll be back!“

“Best Italian’s in all of New England“

“We tried two amazing sandwiches at Banh Mi Huong: the Banh Mi Ga (Five-spice chicken) and the Banh Mi Bo (Lemongrass steak). Both were fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The wait was short, and I liked that you can see your name and estimated time on the board. We ordered takeout, but there were tables available for dining in as well. The restaurant is clean, inviting, and comfortable, and the service was great. I would definitely recommend Banh Mi Huong for a satisfying meal.“

“walk-up windows my favorite. 😍 🥒🥓🥯☀️“

“One of the best sub sandwiches you will ever have.
Service is fast. Food is great quality. You get a great value here. The subs are about 50% larger than most other places nearby and it is about a dollar cheaper. There is not much room to eat and the stools are very wobbly. That does not matter much since almost all the customers are grab and go.

I highly recommend this place.“

“I’ve loved this place since I first discovered it years ago. The food is great, the beer cheap, and the staff (Hi Marnie) awesome. Forget any bad reviews. Some people are never happy.“

“Stopped in to Jimmy’s Market today and the advertising I’ve seen on how good their food is was definitely accurate. I ordered a Brennan which was chicken fingers, American cheese, delicious bacon, topped with a nice honey mustard. Definitely very tasty. My buddy ordered a steak and cheese with mushroom, pepper and onion. It looked amazing and he said it was delicious. They were busy celebrating 50 years in business and there is no wonder why they’ve been so successful for so long. We definitely recommend stopping by!“

“I had a great experience and was genuinely impressed from start to finish. The quality exceeded my expectations, and everything was handled with professionalism and attention to detail. What stood out most was how smooth and enjoyable the whole process felt—nothing seemed rushed or overlooked.
The staff/customer support was friendly, helpful, and quick to respond, which made a big difference. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into making sure customers are satisfied.
I would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for something reliable and high-quality. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Sandwich’s was so delicious 😋“

“The sub was amazing one of the best I’ve had in years and I’m from New York you would think we in Philly“

“Today was my first visit here. Friendly, attentive staff and quick wait time. The sub portion was huge, with delicious and quality ingredients. I will be back!“

“I have been getting DiBlasis subs for over 50 years and it has been always been wonderful food and friendly service.“

“Can’t talk this place up enough amazing old school authentic Italian and a very warm environment whether your looking for a nice cup of coffee or a chicken parm sangy the workers over here always do it right. Killer Sicilian pizza as well!“

“Because the majority of their food, dressings, sauces, etc are made in-house and taste incredible. You pay a little more for some of their items but it is definitely worth every penny. And the portion sizes are great too. Their menu takes u from soups, wraps, cold sandwiches, hot sandwiches, salads and hot dishes. The staff are extremely helpful in tweaking an item to fit your needs. James Beard award I’m sure will be coming soon.“

“Great place for lunch! The chicken ginger rice soup was delicious.“

“Ok people of the neighborhood there open ice cream to die for for 4.75 u can't beat it I got maple walnuts my hubby cookies dough and d that a small give this business out business so yummy for the kids and you and they have a great lunch dinner menu out of town in the area stop by it's getting hot and the ice cream cold 2 thumbs up I will be back 👍👍🥰“

“The store was the absolute amazing with the best customer service“

“I usually get Spinach and Poached Eggs For Breakfast. I have been a Regular Customer Since 2005. I am Big On Communication. Thank you To The Workers That I Rarely See And As Well To The Regulars I See“

“Just Ordered One Of The Best Italian Subs I’ve Had In A Long Time.. First Timer There But They’ll Get To Know Me, Waiting To Try Their Take-Out Dinners And Such..“

“The absolute best breakfast/lunch spot in Newton!“

“My family stopped in for breakfast and we all got different breakfast sandwiches. They were all delicious. I had the avacado smash I think it was called. It was the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. Very much enjoyed the staff's banter while we waited. The staff checked on us several times. 5 stars. Highly recommend!“

“Great spot to pick up some charcuterie. Not super fancy but that’s a good thing. Great quality ingredients. Let the snobs eat elsewhere.“

“We only ate breakfast here, but it was great! We were staying at the Hilton and hit up Max’s every morning! Friendly staff, great food, and the price was right:)“

“I honestly can’t recommend this place anymore. They have a frequent customer punch card which once completed grants you a free sandwich. I went and redeemed my card and purchased 2 bags of chips and a Diet Coke. When I get to work I check my account and he charged me $11.77. I assume he forgot to give me my free sandwich and go back. He then goes on to tell me that the bags of chips are $2.50 each, he charged me another $2.50 because I asked for hot peppers on my sandwich. He then says the 20oz soda is $4.25… I know he arbitrarily made up these prices on the fly as I was obviously a frequent customer and none of this matches up to my previous purchases. If you don’t want people to get a free sandwich don’t have the card.“

“Everything. Friendly staff cold beer great food.“

“Authentic Southie.The way it should be.“

“Got the small lunch bag, which includes a small sub, chips and a drink for 13.50. I got the south side special(mozzarella, tomato, basil, prosciutto)
Best deal in Boston, sandwich was delicious and HUGE. We gave different ideas of “small”. It was generous 10 inches.“

“Im not sure if this is the same ADK shop in roxbury by Mt Pleasant St, but if it is i went there today on a whim. I was hungry after an 11 hour work day. Doing laundry next door and decided to stop by.
I asked the gentleman at the counter if they did Tripleta sandwiches as they weren't on the menu. He didnt hesitate to say yes and in 10 minutes chuffed me up the BEST SANDWICH I have ever eaten in my life. The meat was tender and rich, the pepper jack cheese had the perfect kick, the red onions and mayo perfectly went with the sandwich. I had to go back just to let the only guy working he did amazing. Im just your average white guy who was more than impressed by this sandwich. I highly reccomend.“

“Some restaurants simply serve food; others create an experience that keeps you coming back. This Subway does exactly that.

I visited on Customer Appreciation Day, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Although this location operates 24 hours a day, it never sacrifices the qualities that matter most. The ingredients are consistently fresh, every sandwich is crafted with care, and the attention to detail is evident in every bite.

Equally impressive is the team behind the counter. Their professionalism, efficiency, and genuine kindness transform what could be an ordinary meal into an outstanding customer experience. It’s clear they take pride not only in the food they prepare but also in the way they treat every guest.

What makes this location even more remarkable is the value it offers. It’s increasingly rare to find a restaurant that combines exceptional quality, outstanding service, and reasonable prices so consistently. This Subway achieves all three with ease.

In every respect, this location exemplifies what great customer service should look like. It has set a standard that few restaurants—Subway or otherwise—can match.“

“I did not expect to find such a hidden gem. The classic tuna sandwich was perfection. Great coffee. Super friendly service. Will definitely be back to try one of their other sandwiches as their menu is huge. They also have breakfast options“

“Simply the best! The Little Blue Bakery was the talk of the party for my daughters Graduation Party. Not only is the food cart ridiculously charming, the food, drinks, and coffee were such a hit. I loved working with Hannah and didn’t realize all her treats are HOME MADE. I was so happy to have discovered this hidden gem and to introduce @thelittlebluebakery to Metro West.“
