I've been coming here since opening day. I order every week or two. The daily sandwich specials still surprise me with how great they are. This week the chicken salad with long hot mayo was crazy good. The Kluckr. please keep it on.
I could repeat this review for another 5 years.

Truly some of the best sandwiches and fries we’ve ever had. We got a mix of different ones but the Commish and the Carmela dolled up with hots and it was out of this world. The bread, the quality of meat… just everything was spectacular. Came for the beer which is also fabulous. Blown away by Poe’s

I can't even start to say how bad the food tasted let alone the service... I had to play 17.99 for a crusty, old, flattened depressed loaf, Are you serious?? Also the employee who worked there was evil, heartless, and absolutely annoying, he was on his phone the entire time he kept mumbling weird things to me and got the order COMPLETELY WRONG he was ignoring the whole time!! You just lost a customer for life! I will NEVER be coming back here this is an absolute disappointment..

Great little sandwich shop tucked into the corner of Human Robot Brewery. I’ve been following them/him on social media and he is the most creative sandwich maker anywhere I’ve been. Must be the creative genius of smoking weed all day. All I know is the sandwich’s we got were some of the best I’ve ever had. Between that and the beer (separate review) we were quite happy. And before I forget, great fresh cut fries as well. I’m not usually a fan of shoestring fries but these were really good.

Pretty expensive for a mediocre 8" sandwich ($17). Bread was crunchy but not toasted, felt a little stale and the eggplant was fairly tasteless. Peppers tasted great but overall would rather gamble on better food elsewhere

This is my favorite sandwich place in the city. Have had the whole menu by this point. I think the seoulgirl is probably tops for me, skinny Joey is my top roast pork in town, and part eggplant is my fave veggie option. This is where I take/recommend friends from out of town for the “Philly experience”— simply put it tastes like home to me.

I got the Seoul girl after climbing today and loved her. Next time I get it I’m going to ask for my kimchi slaw to be chopped because I think the texture would be better for me, but other than that I loved the flavor, and the chicken was ~delightful~. The crunch was insane. 10/10

Located inside Human Robot (nice vibe, great service and excellent beer) Poe's sandwiches are absolutely delicious and really creative, as are the fries (and they are not soggy). Everything is well executed with the ingredients perfectly balanced. It is hard to settle on what to order. Seoulgirl is fantastic and I had a bite of a Baby Wook which was delicious too. The service at both Poe's and Human Robot is down to earth and friendly. Its an easy walk from Temple University and worth the trip! Already planning my next visit!

Listen! They are **in the back section of the bar** I lived walking distance for literal months without realizing I was missing out on this amazing craft hoagie joint!

Veggie and chicken options with fries. Delightfully updated takes on classic comfort flavor combos. Just got the "Mushman" that was like chicken Parm but green-- pesto made w/o pine nuts (?!?!).

They are so worth checking out. Roll through for a beer out front, chase it with a hoagie, cleanse w a cocktail inside... Fries togo? May the cycle continue. (Thanks to both businesses for making me feel welcome every time out<3)
