50 Best Sandwich Shops in New York

“This place is great! Atmosphere is chill and cool but the staff is also really friendly. They know what they're doing and what they're talking about, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Food is stunning!! Some italian classics and some twists, amazing wines and for their prices it's 100% worth it. Love this place and I can't wait to return and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to eat in NYC.“

“The Sandwiches just like in Florence !!“

“I taked to there "my kids" (im a babysitter) to have a açai bowl with a lot of tops. they loved so much and they tried the pao de queijo too, The Best.“

“Been going to Faiccos for over 45 years now and nothing has changed thank goodness. The absolute best Italian cold cuts sandwiches,cheese and other specialities served by clean professional knowledgeable staff. The wrapping of the meats is a work of art in it self. Quality is amazing fresh and you can taste each item if you desire. The employees ability to cut tge meats so thin you can read the paper thru them still amazes me. Store is always very clean and workers are clean and well groomed important when they are touching your food. In 45 years never a problem never an issue
Always perfect just perfect.
Try tge home made sopresota or Italian from Italy mortadell or 8 different salami or a sandwich. Tge house made mottsorella is also amazing. Well worth the wait“

“This place is such a find!! My family and I just wanted some good, well priced sandwiches, and we feel like we struck gold with Shamas Deli! The owner was so kind, and the sandwiches are top notch. Every time we make the trip up from Atlanta, we will be sure to stop by!“

“Dopo una settimana in giro per NY, l'ultimo giorno, ahimé, ho scoperto il bar/gastronomia/shopping Best Sicily. Il miglior caffè!“

“The Sandwiches just like in Florence !!“

“I cherish every visit here. Workers at La sandwicherie chelsea welcomed our family with open arms. Great ambiance with a nice vibe, friendly staff, and a clean & simple decor. Their meals maintain quality while costs stay reasonable. This place delivers a pleasurable experience.“

“I came in here with a friend a few months ago since we needed a quick dinner. I had two of the best sandwiches of my life. We split the burrata and truffle sandwiches and both were incredible. I've been back a few times and have never been disappointed.“

“We had a takeaway of those pastrami sandwiches and tuna salad which were awesome, so we ordered more after we finished the first batch.

We waited like 15-20 minutes in lunch time.

Madison Square park is 2 minutes away with some public chairs and tables.“

“I taked to there "my kids" (im a babysitter) to have a açai bowl with a lot of tops. they loved so much and they tried the pao de queijo too, The Best.“

“This is by far my favorite restaurant. Every item on their menu is amazing. The owners and staff are friendly and welcoming as well. I make the excuse to visit the restaurant once a week from Manhattan“

“Every smart’wich I’ve tried has been excellent. It’s a gourmet meal inside the most delicious, Portuguese bread! I highly recommend!“

“I thoroughly enjoyed the staff’s friendly and attentive demeanor, as well as the overall treatment I received. The food was delicious, although I must admit that I was likely just hungry. After all, I always relish my post-gym meals. I highly recommend this place!“

“Great food! Had lunch catered to my business and everything was superb!! Thanks Guys!“

“we loved it!“

“I came today and tried Pietro sandwich and it was amazing! Tasteful and huge! It’s definitely one of the best sandwiches I ever had and I totally reccomend it! I live in Greece but I visit often NY and from now on I will visit Capone’s every time I will be in the city!“

“Delicious wraps! We go to the one on 102th st and Broadway.The only bad thing is poor service,workers have bad attitude! Makes your wrap taste bitter!“

“The team makes even first-time visitors feel like regulars. Heaven on 7th Marketplace combines great cooking with excellent presentation. The staff maintained superior attention. All my selections demonstrate good flavor. The restaurant functions well and I'm glad I gave it a try.“

“The Picnic Basket NYC is always a fantastic experience. The kale salad is fresh, flavorful and perfectly balanced, and the chicken melt is my husband’s absolute favorite — warm, generous and delicious every time. Friendly service, great quality and consistently excellent food. Highly recommend.“

“I enjoyed the chicken pesto burrata, what a delicious sandwich! The person i was with got the lunchbox special, not a bite was left of either sandwich. I also recommend the ginger lemonade, it packs a little kick because of the ginger. I'll definitely come here again when I am back in NYC“

“Amazing , it’s a cashless place“

“if you want a real serious burger, go to Wrap &Run heavy burger, more meat than the bread.$9.95 no tax I highly recommend a cheeseburger with American cheese from Wrap &Run. 77th St. in Lexington Avenue I had a black iron burger from the theater District. It was awful. more bread than meat and it was small like a patty it said $9.95 and when I got my bill, it was $14.95 go to Wrap &Run you will be satisfied with a real burger not a party“

“They have the most beautiful chip display of any Subway I’ve ever been to - it’s just so perfect & organized & it made my OCD brain happy when I walked in. My boyfriend always gets the nachos and they’re (surprisingly) really good.“

“Deliriously delicious shop in the East Village! The sandwich rolls were the best I've tasted in NYC and perfectly toasted. My love and I enjoyed The Hog, a vermicelli and meat salad with the best fish sauce, and a lamb taco. I especially was impressed with the cleanliness and food handling. Go to "about us" to read the interesting story of the two friends/owners who we were so fortunate too meet at Wheelers in Sheepshead Bay.“

“Awesome food and even greater customer service!! 🫶🏽👏🏽🙌🏽❤️🎯🎯“

“I asked for a Pastrami Hero but needed help on what to put on it, hot or cold. The gentleman working to make my samdwich was extremely helpful in helping decide how to make it (haven't had one before) and the result was incredible.

Every time I come to NYC, I love the hospitality of these local shops. I could tell he cared about making a high quality sandwich that I would like and he succeeded.

Bravo. Thank you. I will make it a point to come back next time I am here.

My wife for the Big Chicken and said it was fantastic as well.“

“We visited this place for breakfast during our recent stay in Times Square. Overall, it’s a decent spot for breakfast or lunch. They offer a wide variety of dishes on their menu. We opted for a veggie wrap and an egg sandwich with cheese. The coffee, however, was quite ordinary. Not much seating available inside.“

“If you were looking for a cup of coffee and a sandwich at 4:30 a.m. this is your spot! I've been in here several times, and the place is spotless. They only have one small table to sit at, so you shouldn't plan on eating there. There's a big menu and the coffee is always fresh. I always see the same guy working there, and you can tell he knows what he's doing. If you are in the area and need something quick and easy and reasonably priced this is the place to go.“

“We ate inside, not take out. The manager was very attentive and welcoming. The sandwiches and the bread were superb. They made my husband a whole new sandwich because he arrived 5 mins later and the sandwich was sitting there even tho I didn’t even ask for it. Great portions too!“

“My fav sandwich in New York! Absolutely delicious. I tried it in Milano, exactly same quality here in nyc. Guy who works is Italian who really knows what he is doing, gave us great suggestions!
Atmosphere super cool, music great!
Photo says it all:)“

“Great customer service! Tell Missy we said Hi.“

“Heard about this place online and wanted to try it. Price wise, its around the same price as the other food in the area. The paninis were okay. Honestly, if I gave you a panini from a local popular corner deli and this place, this place would be slightly better. Give this place a shot and you can decide for yourself. I had the Cubano and it was okay.“

“I have no comparison terms because I haven't tried kat's, but here the pastrami was really good and plentiful, with very good sauces and side dishes. Fair count. Another note of merit is the fact of being kosher, which allows you to manage intolerances well. Very small and spartan place, only negative note no alcohol.“

“Unreal.
Ordered Dino(Procuitto, Smoked Mozerella, Sundried tomatoes, Argula) on wheat bread with Pesto. The pesto was not ready yet so I waited for 5 minutes while they were making it. No problem.

Solid and fresh ingredients. Nice smile and ambience. The price is reasonable consider it took me 2 meals to finish it. I reheat the bread by slightly toasted it on a pan. Still good.

A gem frequented by neighbours and office workers, provides a balanced and good quality meal without breaking your bank.“

“Great deli to grab sandwiches (especially breakfast one) and salads to go. I went on a Sat morning and it was empty but there was a steady stream of folks coming. I got a Chef salad to go and it was delicious. Limited seating inside (more of a to go place). You can pre-order online but there is a small convenience fee.“

“Amazing place! Quality food, everything fresh, very friendly environment, multilingual staff and enough space for lunch/dinning. Prices very low and food portions are huge! Returning daily during my stay in NYC!“

“Was so excited to eat the sandwich that I forgot to take a picture! Definitely going to be stopping here again soon on my way to GCT“

“Pickler by far makes the best Turkey Club and french fries made with peanut oil!🙏

Only con is their posted hours on google are not correct or they close early. I've gone twice when Google hours post open all to find they are closed. Disappointing!“

“visited Montagus Gusto while I was on vacation in New York, and it was one of the best places I ate at during my trip. I ordered the Philly Cheesesteak, and it was the best I’ve ever had. The steak was juicy, the cheese was melted just right, and the bread was fresh and soft. Every bite was full of flavor and really satisfying. I can’t wait to go back the next time I visit New York this place is a must try!“

“We had Hot Chocolate and smoothies, all amazing. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Great experience, will be back to try the food also.“

“Best meatball parm in NYC“

“I’m salivating just thinking about their 🥪!!! They offer huge portions, fresh and high quality ingredients and now I’m hungry. 😋“

“My first visit. I had a Naked Frozen Mojito and a Green Thai Coconut Curry with Chicken, so yummy! Great customer service!“

“Yummy! One must try when visiting New York. We enjoyed it, although it was too big for me. Maybe I should have gone for their Apperitivo offer that has half a sandwich and a drink for $15 or so.
The restaurant is small but cute.
Service is friendly and fast so not a long wait. There’s some seating inside and outside, but if it is rush hour you might not have space.“

“Wow.... Delicious... Recommended!😍“

“Sandwich was solid. Not sure I would wait in line for it again even though I enjoyed it very much. I got on line at 12:15pm and was seated by 12:50 pm on a Friday. Fries (more like chips) were good but an order is enough for 2 people. I wish I ordered the coleslaw as the meal needed something fresh as it pretty heavy.“
