48 Best Sandwich Shops near Swampscott

“We visited from out of state and felt so welcomed by the staff here. The Gal was working alone but still talked with us the entire time while she flipped dough by hand and made pizzas, calzones and subs. The calzones were huge and so delicious! Our Air bnb wasn’t ready for a couple of hours so she was nice enough to let us keep our luggage behind the counter so we didn’t have to it around. We will definitely be going back!“

“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.“

“Wanted something not fried and carb loaded. Found this gem. Got the avocado toast with eggs over easy, crisp bacon, home fries and asked him to throw spinach on top to be healthy. Absolutely love! The owner is so nice and served it up fast with a smile. Will definitely come back.

This is a must visit if you want great food at a great cost.“

“This is a 5 for a lunch option in downtown Boston. Best Italian sub ever? No. But for the price and convenience, it’s the best in downtown. The large size sandwich is HUGE. Fast. A little soup-naziish in that you better know what you want when you get to the front of the line. The bread makes a sandwich and theirs is great. Take out only“

“Really cute place, super delicious food! They could do almost everything on the menu gluten free, I got the bom dia (gf) which was delicious. The service we great and fast. No seating in the cafe but there’s a little park one block away with benches.“

“I am a long time customer (1975) Nick's is absolutely the best there is! Once when I had a broken leg, Nick helped me (and my sandwiches etc.)out to my car. Not only great roast beef but compassionate!😍“

“The BEST around! Thankful to Paul and his staff for everything!“

“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“

“Wow. Incredible authentic Italian food. The owners are great guys and have a passion for Sicilian Meals.
Don’t miss this one !!!
Ciao

Returned for a Veal Parm sub for lunch. The veal is always thin and the breading is crisp.
Best veal sandwich in Saugus.
You’ll love it !!“

“Authentic Southie.The way it should be.“

“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!“

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

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

“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:)“

“Lovely, clean, fresh, friendly - I ordered the chicken Caesar kale salad, it was awesome and croutons were made fresh. They had a lunch special which included beer on tap for $20! The vibe was chill and the place was really clean, lots of natural light. My server was really friendly and made me feel at home. I will definitely be back!“

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

“I got a large chicken pesto sub. I figured for $2 more than the small I’d have a little leftover. I didn’t realize it would be as long as my arm! The bread was fresh with a nice crunch. The sub was so full it was almost bursting and it’s all white meat chicken. Pesto sauce was real tasty too and not over saturated. I feel like you should always get a large since it’s essentially an extra sub for $2 more. My picture is 1/4 of the sub and it looks like half of one I get from other places. I’ll definitely be back!“

“First time trying it today with my daughter. I can honestly say its pretty good. Ordered two subs some steak fries with a slice ( they gave us a free slice on the house btw.) Will probably be my new go to spot when ever we order out on movie nights.“

“Best Tacos ever! I used to go for the Chicken Parm but those Tacos! Damm!“

“The Mickey is my favorite sandwich in town!!“

“This place gives you a lot of food for your money! We travel all over looking for a great Roast Beef and this place did not disappoint! We will definitely come back again! The staff is friendly and the food was delicious!! HIGHLY recommend!!!!“

“Best pastrami sandwich I have ever had. Many times, people have tried to convince me on the merits of a pastrami sandwich. I had always left disappointed whenever I order pastrami...until I tried this place. Nestled in the corner of the Boston Public Market, it is worth making the trek here.“

“Awesome food! High quality! Huge portions! Consistently delicious!“

“My wife brought me home a Teriyaki Chicken sub from Charleys. I never heard of this place but my wife was out with her girlfriend. When I tell you it was one of the most delicious subs I have ever had (and I am in my 50s). It was a good sized (medium) sub with great flavor and two sliced pickles inside with lots of cheese. I definitely have to try the Cheese steak next. Kudos to this place for taking common sub sandwiches to a much higher level.“

“Love the sandwiches!! I ordered off uber eats and waited over a half hour for a driver to pick it up. Was worried that by the time the sandwich got to me it’d be cold and soggy but nope! Warm, fresh and toasty! Can’t wait to try other items!“

“Came here to pick up a lunch. The chicken club was one of the best sub sandwiches I've had anywhere, I was thoroughly impressed. The employee who helped me was very friendly as well. It is in an unusual area with very little space for dining in but is perfect for picking up a meal to-go.“

“Anything except a 5 star is a lie, it’s just their competitors down voting them. Hands down best food and friendliest staff, in Boston by a mile!! Wide range of delicious food and the best prices. Anie and his staff are the kindest and Scola elevates the Seaport area significantly! You cannot go wrong, regardless of what you chose on their menu or daily specials.“

“Meatball grinder and the cheeseburger are both great!“

“Now comes vegan by default (no mayo or fish sauce) Much more meat than I was expecting for $7! I added my own veganaise and butter at home, but I expect that for omni restaurant banh mis. Bread was nice and crispy. Service was super fast (I was in and out in < 5 min) Updated from previous review on 2025-10-31“

“Picked up an Italian and Ham & Cheese. Absolutely delicious! The roll was soft with a great chew, fresh ingredients and all around well made. We were so pleased!“

“We just ordered yesteday from Prides Deli & Pizza. we ordered several types of sub sandwiches. These were the best we have tasted since the 1970's! Best Italian ever, most delicious meatball sub, The bread was soft but with enough perfect crust making steak bomb the one I've searched for but never found since Keyser's closed so many years ago. Best sandwiches in Beverly if not the entire Nort Shore. Thank you.“

“Delicious very fresh everything goodThe guys who serve are very friendlyThanks Ronald and of course I will come back thank you guys very much the only thing I don't like is that now I can't see the food options because they have it covered the rest is very good“

“Cold cuts are sliced fresh, our sub was delicious. All the staff was very helpful and friendly. The manager was awesome“

“Best back to the days sub shop hope they continue to stay one of the best Lena sub shop around“

“Tonight, we ordered subs and sat down to eat them. We didn't realize it, but it got late. We left at 9:15pm. The place closed at 9pm. They did not rush us out. Instead, they allowed us to eat and relax. As soon as we left, the table was wiped, lights shut and door locked. Thank you Subway for providing a great customer service experience. That's rare nowadays.“

“This place is excellent! How lucky am I to work so close to this shipping container. The bread is always so fresh and the sandwiches are scooby doo and shaggy sized large. I really wish they would come up with a rewards or point system for employees at the design center who come here almost daily. It’s for sure burning a hole in my pocket and I know that’s 100% my problem but a free sandwich after say maybe 10 purchased sandwiches would make a lot of sense in my opinion.“

“This place is SO good!!! The chicken parm with vodka sauce and burrata is unreal. Service is always great too. They’re really fast, my order has never taken more than 3 minutes. would highly recommend if you’re looking for takeout in the North End😍😍“

“Fresh subs! They keep it original, definitely worth every penny. I’d highly recommend it, they have treated me with professional customer service & have been patient with me when I take my time to order. They haven’t let me down after a hard day of work. Keep up the good work & good customer service.“

“Charlie’s Philly Steaks has gained a new fan. Honestly I’ve been to this place a few times and every time they have gotten better. Not only did I get a solid Philly BBQ Steak Sub I also got loaded fries for FREE. The Sub was delish and the heat of peppers and the sweetness of the BBQ made the sub taste like Heaven . Definitely come to this place if you want a great tasting sub and great customer service.
5 out of 5 ;)“

“This is a nice sandwich shop with some good options on the menu. Their sandwiches are a bit more upscale than Subway's and they're willing to accommodate requests (within reason). Their tuna melt was very good. The staff are friendly.“
