49 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!“

“My first time here, and the first thing I noticed was how cute and inviting the space is! The food and drinks were sooo delicious. 😋 I had the Bom Dia breakfast sandwich, while my friend ordered the Greek breakfast sandwich. We also tried a couple of iced coffees and the gut-healing juice, everything was amazing! The staff were also very friendly. I’ll be back!“

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

“Sandwich was great Service excellent“

“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.“

“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!😍“

“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!“

“Amazing food, Meatball and eggplant are incredible, Large sandwich is enough for two meals, I’ve gone several times now and highly recommended!“

“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“

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

“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 usually order off DoorDash and typically enjoy my sandwiches. One of the times I ordered I got slightly stale bread so that wasn’t fun. But otherwise, the food is very good quality and filling. Will still order again since they’re typically on it.“

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

“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“

“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:)“

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

“Food is excellent and delicious, I order chicken parmesan sandwich large one and it was big and perfect for price. Low prices, near bus station, best for eating something when you arrive in Boston. Im student J1 and my recommendation is to try this place.

Hrana odlična, sve super, ogromni sendviči a cena jeftina, sve preporuke!!“

“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.“

“Authentic Southie.The way it should be.“

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

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

“We hosted a large group recently and everything was top notch! The food was amazing and the staff could not have been more pleasant and accommodating. I would definitely recommend Fresh Boston to anyone looking for some good food and great staff.“

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

“This place sux inside and out 1st they said the tacos r the best asked if they was soft cause I can't chew they said yes and they was hard as a rock I called to ask why they wasn't soft alls I got was an attitude I will never go back here and I recommend you don't either“

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

“Meatball grinder and the cheeseburger are both great!“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“My final breakfast before leaving Boston. Just walking around the Pier and noticed this nice little cafe. We did not regret it--the croissants and breakfast burritos are hot and fresh And it tastes so different from what you are used to. Great family owned place!“

“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.“

“Couldn't find the price of the iced coffee - so I'm posting it for you here -$5.50

Coffee is good, it's what I expected- they don't have a great way of mixing it so some of the condensed milk is stuck at the bottom of the cup.

No place to sit, it's take out only.“

“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!“

“Beantown Pastrami Company on Hanover Street is an absolute must stop in Boston. Fast, friendly, and flat out delicious. The staff moves with purpose and the energy in this place is infectious. Now let's talk about the sandwich because it deserves a moment. You watch them stack it and think there is absolutely no way you are finishing that. Then somehow, almost without realizing it, that magnificent tower of pastrami shrinks away before you even come up for air. If you are in Boston and walking through the North End, Beantown Pastrami Company is a non negotiable stop. Get in there!“

“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.“

“One of the best sandwiches in the city for a great price you definitely get your bang for your buck supporting a family owned business that makes true authentic amazing chicken cutlets and turn them into amazing sandwiches with house made bread and having a weekly special that spans all sorts of flavors and creativity and the staff some of the nicest most pleasant people I’ve experienced shout out Mike for the great food and service always“

“Update to original post: we've been back at least twice...still excellent food and service!
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.“

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

“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.“

“From the last I was there, there was a vast improvement. It reminded me of the old days of coming back from the beach and always stopping at Angelina's the best sub's around. The sub was excellent.“

“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.“

“This place is my favorite subway ever! I always ask for less ham on my sandwiches, and when I put in a mobile order they ALWAYS remember to give me less ham even though I can't specify it on the app. I come here often and the sandwich I order is so good every time I have it, and it's always ready so fast. The employees are really kind as well!“

“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 ;)“
