50 Best Sandwich Shops in Columbus

“I’m not from the area but I found out about Wario’s on TikTok. I have been to Wario’s twice now. The chicken cesar cutlet is AMAZING! The spuds and chicken parm is also amazing! My husband ordered the Philly and loved it. I highly recommend Wario’s. I wish there was one closer to where we are from! We will just have to make the 3 hour trip again 😂“

“Awesome and quick“

“We got the Reuben, and chef special #3 and we asked him to make some grilled cheeses for our boys. He sliced up croissants put cheese and threw turkey on it too. Our boys loved their grilled cheeses! Our sandwiches were absolutely AMAZING! Please open a Frenchi’s in Newark, Ohio 😅“

“This place is unreal! Tried it today for the first time and was blown away. We got the cheesesteak warios way and the chicken cutlet. Huge portions everything was fresh hot and delicious. Would consider making a day trip from WV to eat here!!“

“I have wanting to try this place, I am so glad I stopped! I was disappointed the Pork chop sub is no longer available. I got the Italian sub and Stafford put the Italian sauce on the side. I tried it and I Love and used it all! I got my husband the Chicken Philly and he Loved it. The next time if I could pay for extra meat and provolone cheese that we be great. The fries was fantastic! I was impressed with the owner Stafford and he was great and I will be going back soon!“

“Grinders is my ultimate favorite baked sandwich shop!!! I've been eating here since college, and although some locations are not on my radar any longer, LINCOLN VILLAGE STILL MAKES THE AMAZING SANDWICHES I FEEL IN LOVE WITH "a few" YEARS AGO 😉 !!! In addition to the great food, the owners and staff are wonderful. I'll be a fan for life!“

“Great pizza, subs and salads for a good price. After 2 visits, I'm a loyal customer!“

“Amazing sandwich! Had the classy lady , would highly recommend“

“Loved the pastrami sandwich!“

“Always a great experience, so pumped that there is one right by my house now.“

“First time ever at a Firebouse Subs,I've worked retail/customer service for over 30yrs, so I thrive to give positive reviews as we typically only hear bad ones,,,, amazing food, amazing customer service, everyone was friendly and outgoing, we will definitely be back 😁😁😁“

“The best sandwiches and friendly vibes from the workers. Definitely worth a stop, even if you’re not near! Will be back, la Barbosa was phenomenal + great empanadas!!“

“Came here before a concert at Nationwide and it was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had! I was very excited to see they had a vegetarian option called mush love. Hands down the BEST vego sandwich I’ve ever had. I don’t live in Columbus, but I will be dreaming about going back to have it again. 😂 The truffle aioli was amazing!

Really nice chef and staff. Would highly recommend!“

“I wasn’t a big fan of the coldbrew coffee because it was very bitter but I added the creamer packet that they provide and it helped a little. It was decent. 👍🏼 their food is really good especially their French fries and burgers. My big fat toe enjoyed it as well. ☺️“

“My husband and I always eat here when we go out of town ..wish jersey mikes would come to Huntington , WV“

“I posted a review earlier about the Livingston Ave location. The restaurant sent me a free meal coupon. Thank you. Today,I went to the Morse Rd location. That was a good experience. The food was good and the soda wasn't weak. I'll have to get a bigger sandwich next time. They should just close down the Livingston location for real!“

“I use this location probably 6-8 times a year. Typically I order online and DiBellas has fine tuned that process to make it pretty intuitive. A little pricier than the competition but the portions are huge. I get 2-3 meals from one large sub. Staff is efficient and friendly.“

“Good place for lunch, and good atmosphere“

“Carter was especially friendly lovely and served me my food spectacularly, more places should take notes! lovely young gentlemen. wish I could say the same about the management... I went on Micheal day and got a free sub for my son called Micheal 😇 cheeky cheeky!“

“Still the best! I’ve been enjoying Grinders as far back as I can remember. I love the Italian!“

“If you have never eaten a Romanburger you don’t know what you are missing. Don’t miss the breaded mushrooms either. Having grown up in the Cleveland area they are everywhere. It’s a treat to have in C’bus.“

“Great sandwiches, fresh veggies and fresh fries. Coca cola fountain drinks . Offered hit subs with a variety of meats as well as cold subs . Worth trying out.“

“FIRST EXPERIENCE TODAY OFF OLENTANGY. SOFTEST BREAD EVER💯 WHOLE SANDWICH WAS EXTRAORDINARY AND I'VE EATEN A LOT OF SANDWICHES 🤣 STAY TUNED AS I SAMPLE THE MENU GOING FORWARD...“

“I've known about this place for decades, but somehow never ate here until today. This place is a time capsule of how campus used to be many years ago, and I mean that in the best possible way. From the graphics, to the edgy names of the sandwiches, to the absolutely huge portions, everything about this place reminds me of the best parts of my youth. Will definitely add this place to my rotation when I have events near campus in the future!“

“Im a regular at this location so much that when I walk in the door, "Its Hi Bryan". Its like your part of their family. All the people there are awesome to deal with. I've been to a couple other stores in town, and no one compares to the North store on Hamilton Rd in the Meijers parking lot.“

“Two ladies in there one was older lady and one was younger lady the older lady gave me the greatest customer service experience in a long time this lady said that we were her favorite couple of the day very bubbly positive engaging very patient with us because we didn't know what we wanted when we went in here sorry I didn't get your name but I really appreciate your positive attitude and I enjoyed our conversation about ice cream“

“I love a good classic Subway sandwich. Yeah their ingredients & quality has gone down over time, but I STILL like their sandwiches when they're made right!

But the past couple years especially since COVID, most of my Subway experiences have been pretty disappointing.

But I got a sandwich from this location via their app, while I was visiting Columbus last month. It was really good! Reminded me of pre-COVID Subway. Perfect amount of all the toppings! The person who helped me was very nice and friendly too.

I see some other recent reviewers rated them 1-star because they weren't open during their stated hours. I know that's frustrating, but Subways are franchises, and this probably means that the family that owns this location is going through something serious & thats why they're having to close early.

It may have something to do with the severe/bizarre military crackdown happening in the US right now.“

“Great little sandwich shop. The Gormet loaded fries are hot and smothered with real bacon and cheese whiz and the CheeseSteak is prime beef sliced stacked onto a real hoagie bread roll with vegetables and cool mayo. Service is super quick and very polite.“

“really good, even without the bun go at the end of the day get really cheap buns to take home“

“The staff was SO kind, Ive never been inside before but they all welcomed me and helped carry the catering order with me. Each bag/box was clearly labeled or pointed out to me so I knew the whole order was there. All items were clearly labeled and made well too.“

“I pretty much eat JJ every other day around the Columbus area. This store out shines all the other ones in my opinion. When they are busy they are calm and still very polite and attentive to the customer. The restaurant is very clean also for all you peeps that don’t want to rely on the freaky fast delivery! Great job guys!“

“La comida es buena pero son demasiado de lentos 30 min esperando mi orden... ll“

“Parking: Most people use the McDonald's parking lot which is 2 stores down however, beware of homeless people who are paid by the McDonald's establishment who are on lookout of people who park in their lot and don't actually go to their business. McDonald's will tow your vehicle.“

“This is my first time leaving feedback! We tried the Philly cheesesteak, ultimate fries, and strawberry lemonade—I highly recommend all three! (I totally forgot to take a picture because we couldn't wait to eat!) Make sure to get everything on your Philly cheesesteak, including jalapeños. Despite the long line(it means this is a popular place :)), the food was delivered quickly (and warm!), and the staff were super nice. I'll definitely be back!“

“JOE was my hero today! He was by far the sweetest person i have ever met in my life. I forgot my wallet and he said ok. Very chill. Non judgemental and kind. He said well it’s on me today! All you can do is tell ppl how much you love potbelly sandwich shop! My heart sank. JOE you are an amazing person! I dont know how i could ever repay you for that beyond kind gesture!“

“The staff is amazing and friendly up there, they remember your name, always prompt service, definitely one of the best Penn stations I like going to, also I am able to fit my bobtail semi truck on the side of building while I grab my food, and even with all the construction because of the traffic lights it’s easy to exit location and get back on the road. Keep up the great work you guys are awesome at this Penn station.

BTW
I always get my chicken teriyaki sub, and anyone that hasn’t tried their lemonade is missing out lol it’s delicious… 🤤

Parking: Very easy if you’re about to tell, semi truck to park on side of the building and grab your food, and easy to exit right onto the main street with traffic lights so you can get back on the road.“

“Jersey Mike’s subs are definitely better than those of Subway and Jimmy John. The red wine improves their subs to the next level. My personal view is that their cold subs are much better than their grilled ones. Cheese and proteins are freshly cut and vegetables are also fresh. This location is close to west campus with great food quality, and fast and friendly service.“

“I usually go here when I get tired of eating everything else in the food court. I usually always see the same three ladies working when I do. They always smile and they're always nice when I order! The owner is always sweet as well when she's there! Chicken is always great as are the sandwiches. Now, with the boneless chicken, I just wish Everytime I order it, I don't have to wait 6 minutes as the bone-in is always ready. I don't mind waiting when I don't really care about my lunch time and that's most times, but imagine if I didn't have time to wait🤷🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️🤷🏿‍♀️. Overall, I love the staff here and the food is always pretty good!“

“I started a job working at the Statehouse recently and discovered PotBelly as a great lunch option. I've been here like 6 times now over the past two weeks and have thoroughly enjoyed my meal every time. The food is amazing, the service staff always friendly and you can even see the teamwork happening while you wait for your order. Keep up the great work!“

“The food is delicious the staff is friendly and the food is delivered quickly to your table, my son loves the fries with cheese and bacon. I recommend this charleys“

“I love this place! Great sandwiches! I'm always eager to go to Charley's!“

“I had tried this place before, years ago, but then they didn’t offer what I was wanting. Nor was the staff then as it was today. Today, it was good. Atmosphere was calm, love the retro feel. The staff were friendly and helpful. Food was good too, got the skinny, which was satisfying, but may have to get a regular next time to feel fuller longer. Overall, was an excellent experience and will go back.“

“excellent food, first rate staff😊 consistently“

“Awesome customer service!! Friendliest staff in the restaurant industry. Managers recommendations and guidance were spot on with knowledge from staffs personal experiences. All around excellent experience. Bonus was everyone's personalities and involvement in showing that they cared about what they're doing. Truly loved the smile of the blonde woman in the flannel. Just WOW!“

“Love this new location! The owners are very nice and kind! The staff is fabulous and the chicken salad phenomenal! They opened a little over a week ago and I’ve gone three times including midnight for the grand opening, met some really nice people waiting in line for that. So if you’re hungry for something other than the usual burger and fries, definitely check this place out, they have 12 flavors of chicken salad made fresh daily, either a sandwich or with crackers you can’t go wrong. Located at 4345 W. Dublin-Granville Road in the Shoppes at River Ridge.“

“Posted this on my page yesterday: There is a young woman who works the drive thru window at Jimmy John's on Cassady Ave near the airport most evenings and she is awesome! She makes a great sandwich, is pleasant, efficient and takes the time to smile (you can hear it in her voice) and engage with the customers!! She keeps us coming back! Thank you for the excellent customer service! Jimmy John's management you need to be sure to keep her!!“

“This subway parking will be in the back. If you are walking, it will be easy to spot from the outside. The sign is bigger than most of the subway restaurants. It looks a bit small. However, the service and food made up for it. Nobody was at the counter yet. When I got close, I was greeted with a smile and quickly asked what I wanted. I got my food with no issues. Payment will be in cash or credit card. I happened to use my watch, so for those who enjoy using the tap, it is simple. There's points for loyal customers also at the end. Right at the cashier, you will see the drinks and chips. The tables and chairs were clean. Overall, it was a pleasant time. If I came back, I'd imagine my experience would be the same.“

“Jimmy John’s on Broad Street is quite the operation. A well oiled machine. Strong teamwork. Exceptional service. Fresh. Clean. Keeps me coming back. That bread draws me in. #freakyfast.“

“I eat lunch here nearly every day, and i am always blown away by how efficient, friendly, and consistent this location is. The make line is clean, the ingredients freshed, and despite being whisked along quickly i never feel rushed. This crew has clearly been at it for some time and have the Subway model down to a science--Ive never once finished my lunch and been unsatisfied.“
