30 Best Sandwich Shops in Raleigh

“Ordering online was super easy, everyone was super welcoming, and the sandwiches were top tier! It might just become my newest lunch obsession 🥪“

“Best hoagies in Arizona! Fast precise service, friendly people and awesome prices. Everything is fresh and taste like back home.“

“I have been wanting to come here for a while. I made the trip in from Charlotte for a Wegmans run. I had a ham and cheese on rye. It was incredible. I bought some mac and cheese to take home for my kids. I haven't tried that yet. Amazing sandwiches.“

“We love Sunday lunch @ JM. Fast, Fresh food served by friendly staff. Restaurant is clean and customers happy.“

“I'm so glad this place is here. I've been going to Roly Poly for over 20 years, but sadly there aren't many locations left these days. This one has excellent service, friendly and fast, and they still make the Delhi Chicken (and yes, it's still a masterpiece). This is my go-to lunch spot every time I'm in town, and I hope they'll stick around for many years to come.“

“Very delicious food!! The bun was a little different than I was expecting but delicious none the less!!! I got a spicy Italian Diablo I'd probably rate the spice level at about a four or five. It was very delicious. I couldn't eat very much of it though because it was very filling. My husband got the cheesesteak sandwich and it was also very delicious!“

“I stopped in for lunch and immediately noticed the difference the new owners have made! I haven't been in here in a while due to less than desirable experiences but it was close by. It now looks fresh, new and clean! And my lunch was prepared just as I wanted and so tasty! If it has been awhile for you, I'd say try it again...these new owners care about their business and their customers!“

“I placed an online order with your Business May 25th. I ordered four subs, I always order the rosemary parmesan. I have multiple kids to feed before bedtime. I got home and opened my order, only to find out that it was incorrect. I called your store at least 7 times I did not get an answer. There were multiple people behind the counter. You guys didn't appear to be super busy when I picked up my order. There were two customers and a decent amount of people behind the counter. I had to leave my home, due to calling the store several times with no success. I spoke with Hunter. He told me they weren't able to get in touch with me to let me know they ran out of the rosemary bread, he's sorry, and there's nothing they can do about it. I asked if they called me to inform me. He told me they couldn't due to being super busy. They had to make subs, there were customers in store they had to assist, and someone on the register, therefore no one was available to call me. So they just made it with white bread. So what I'm gathering is I placed and paid for a specific order, your employees were too busy to call me to inform me that you didn't have what I ordered, decided to make what you wanted, they didn't bother to inform me upon pick up, and then tell me when I DRIVE back up there after numerous phone call attempts that you can't do anything about it... pretty much I'm not a customer that matters? After I pay for what I want, I get what you give me with no other options? His attitude about the situation was terrible. I'm very thankful you all are still operating through this pandemic, but customer service still matters. This is the first BAD experience that I've had with this store. Good subs, poor customer service from the manager on duty at the time.“

“2025-01-10
Cafe Club Sandwich was good but not seasoned. I could taste the bacon and buttery croissant but that's about it. Did not get my Sweet Potato Biscuit. Lemon Bar was sweet and full of lemon flavor. UPDATE 1/18/25 Delivery Chicken Salad Sandwich was full of delicious, not sweet, chicken salad on a fresh croissant that was falling apart❤️ The Sweet Potato Biscuit was moist and tasted nasty. The Loaded Potato Soup was served in a large container but it was too tangy and salty which ruined the taste for me. It was suppose to come with a baguette and it came with a dinner roll😢 UPDATE 2/22/25 Cream of Broccoli Soup was fresh and full of fresh ingredients including lots of amazing cheese. Best I have ever had!!!“

“It's a Subway .. so the food and atmosphere are much like every other Subway. What sets this location apart from all the other Subways are the girls behind the counter ! Fast and friendly! Outstanding service every time I'm here ! Keep up the good work ladies ? you ALL deserve raises !!“

“I live in NY. I needed bagels, OJ, etc. delivered to a family friends house in Raleigh. Even though Lucille’s technically doesn’t deliver, the owner took my call, got to the bagel store earlier than usual to assemble my order and delivered it herself. Awesome person, great business and my friends said the bagels were of NY quality-delicious! :) Thank you!“

“Compliments to the person manning the stall today. Paid a lot of attention to ensuring the bread was well toasted and cleanliness of the place. From the food, to the restaurant to the washroom even.

Unfortunately I do not know the name of the person manning the place. But this was worth calling out.“

“Always very clean, staff friendly, manager/owner heavily involved and personable with guests. 2nd best hot Italian sub I've ever had.“

“Subs are great, but just a reminder to wear masks over nose and mouth. I just went to Duraleigh location and all employees making sandwiches did not have masks covering their noses!“

“Tried the Cheese Steak our first time eating there, and it was great!“

“This Subway has been here since I was a little kid in the 90s. I remember coming here sometimes after preschool with my mom and sister, eating a small sized ham and cheese sub while drenching down some cool pink lemonade. Let's not forget the happy meal toys. I still have my basketball frisbee I got here from around 1998. Good Times.“

“Penn Station Subs is another favorite of mine always great food and service eat in or take out quick food great prices these are not your ordinary subs their fries and lemonade are a must try especially when you add the malt vinegar to them. I can only speak for myself but the big sub chains can not come close to a Penn station subs. A must try if you love subs as much as I do.“

“I love my subs every time I visit, and everything's taste fresh. #ThumbsUp #SignedMontrellBethea ☺😎👌👍“

“We were passing through just about 1 hour before closing and had 7 of us, (including a 1 and 3 year old)
Three in our party are “celiacs” so can always be a little tough for us and the staff.

But……Wow, what a great job! Staff was super friendly and very knowledgeable about gluten free and safety. They took orders, changed gloves, interacted with the kids and reassured us all would be safe for the GF crew. Super pleased with all aspects of the visit“

“I love the medium roast beef combo (chips and a drink.) The food is hot and fresh and delicious 😋 Great service. Fast and friendly. Very clean. I also recommend the hook and ladder and the grilled chicken.“

“The food and service was great! I even had a nice side bar conversation with the employee, in which he initiated. My only complaint are the random people hanging around outside, seemingly doing nothing. It made me hesitant about approaching my car. One individual actually came into the store while I was ordering and asked if I could order him a steak and cheese footlong on white! The employee preparing my food, compensated for the trouble by giving me a free macadamia nut cookie. In spite of the bad company I experienced, I’ll still support this business. You can’t beat good food and conversation.“

“The subs I received here for my family were amazing! If I could give 6 stars I would. Please let the team here know they’re doing an amazing job. I came at 3:30 on Tuesday, May 6th and the subs looked so delicious as they were being made. Slicer put plenty of meat. Sprinkler made the subs so juicy and gorgeous looking, and the cashier was accurate and friendly. The owner should call and thank these guys personally or stop in and give this whole crew a firm handshake and thank you for their hard work. Keep it up guys!“

“Despite only receiving a 2 star experience, I believe a few of the other negative reviews here were not deserved.When I went in I walked over to the register, and was eventually approached, I had a mobile order, and said my name was Jacob. Apparently neither of the two employees spoke english, 3 minutes I tried talking to them, and showed them my order, eventually one realized that they had made it, my name "Jacob" on the bag......I do not blame the two ladies, it is wrong for management to know that they don't speak the best english, while I am sure they can manage, it is still an inconveniences and probably makes the job extra hard for them.“

“Excellent customer service tonight @ 4/4 5:30pm. The two young men working there restored my faith in young workers. They were extremely polite, showed a willingness to answer questions rathwr than reluctance, and even went above and beyond for a young girl with her mother in front of me, telling her that she was going to "shine" someday and just interacting with her as she ordered. This was only my second time ever here but those employees made my experience memorable and were a great example ofcustomer service done right when it is so rare to find. They deserve a raise.“

“I'm still relatively new to the Jersey Mike's experience, but this is my 3rd visit (2nd at this location) and these sandwiches are ALWAYS "the best sandwich I have ever eaten!" Staff is super polite, food is great, I have yet to leave unsatisfied!“

“Good atmosphere, Nice friendly service.“

“I've never had an bad experience @ any of the Three ones i go too. air port blvd, new bern ave, & buck jones rd. Always superb“

“Friendly Attentivr Staff!“

“Great sandwiches. Way better than Panera. The choose 2 deal is great plenty of interchangeable selections.“

“Agnar was amazing! She went above and beyond with her service, making sure everything was perfect for us. Not only was she friendly and efficient, but everything was so fresh and delicious! She even surprised us with free cookies, which really made our day. Thank you, Agnar, for making our Subway visit a special one. Highly recommend stopping by if you want great service, fresh food, and a little extra sweetness!“
