50 Best Sandwich Shops in Pittsburgh

“Not only are these some of the best subs we have ever had, but this place has one of the coolest atmospheres we have ever experienced. We just moved to Pittsburgh and were looking for our go-to sub place and Peppi’s was recommended multiple times. Walking in and you’re instantly met with real hard-working Pittsburgh people and a culturally rich atmosphere that highlights local celebrities, area history, and all around Pittsburgh pride. All this on top of an incredible sandwich and fries every-time and we have our spot for many years to come. We recommend trying the whole menu over time, but our favorites are the Santucci and the mushroom cheesesteak.“

“Great sandwich! The picky vegetarian eater, who likes to eat only certain things endorsing.“

“If you're looking for a local hangout and local sandwiches this is the place to go. We are visiting from out of town and were looking for a place to have lunch after the Heinz museum. Just as short stroll away in an area of town that's for the restaurants. My wife and I both had cheesesteak sandwiches which were delicious“

“Food is fresh, tastes great and is absolutely delicious! Staff is exceptional! HIGHLY recommend“

“awesome people, awesome food!!!“

“This is hands down the best fish and chip spot in Pittsburgh. The fish, shrimp and fries were excellent. Perfectly crispy on the outside and the inside just melts in your mouth. The house made donuts are also to die for. Highly recommend checking them out and the owner is super nice too!“

“It is a great place to be, and the employees have a good attitude.“

“Got the grilled chicken club 🔥🔥🔥 10/10“

“Yesterday early evening order was delivered quickly. The 2 sandwiches were very good. However, we were very disappointed with the french fries that were very soft & greasy. They even made the sandwiches somewhat greasy. We would rather eat crispy french fries, which are way better. Just wanted to let you know that we will still order the sandwiches. Thank you.“

“great food. spicy relish was awesome. meatballs are to die for“

“The best Sandwich in Pittsburgh“

“I haven’t gotten the subs from here in a long time, maybe over a year. I had a craving today for their “Everything” bread. I headed to the store around lunchtime, as I walked in the door, I saw a sign to get a free 5 inch sub when you join there online program, I scan the QR code and decided to place my order online. The app did not redeem for a free 5 inch sub, but I went ahead with my order anyway. I didn’t see the “Everything” bread through the online portal (only: plain, sesame and multigrain) so I chose another bread type and guessed that they had discontinued the “Everything” bread since I hadn’t been here in so long. I sat at a booth and submitted my order, then a lady walks in and places her order at the counter and I hear her ask for the everything bread. I walked over to the counter and I see that it is still a bread option on their board. Then I asked the attendant at the counter if it was possible to change my bread type for my online order. Cadence clarified if I wanted the change for both of my subs and I said yes, she fixed my order without any issue. When she brought my order to me, I apologized for the inconvenience and she said that it was no problem and that if I had any issues with the online order in the future that I could give them a call at the store. This review is kudos to Cadence and her great customer service. As far as the DiBellas app, it’s still needs worked on.

Parking: There are a lot of businesses close together, so although DiBellas may not be busy, the parking lot is.“

“By far well worth the price which wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I’m not sure what the waitress name was but man was she awesome. She was so attentive and super kind. The atmosphere was great too. Next time we have to come to the drs we will definitely be back. Thanks for a great experience.“

“Came here after work to order takeout because I wanted a bite to eat. I got the turkey sando and the tots and let me tell you I was impressed! I was skeptical about the hummus being on the sandwich and originally asked for it to be made without but i’m honestly glad that they ended up putting it on there because it took it to a whole new level! The vibe of the place was also a plus, really down to Earth!“

“Gosh. All this time the best pepper steak hogie was around the corner from me. Lol. Drive by this establishment all the time and never paid attention to what was there. Goggle "steak hogie near me" and this place popped up. I said " i got nothing to lose" and i was right. I dint loose anything instead i gained some happiness. Great prices. The half of hogie sized it basically the size of a whole hogie at most other steak houses. The bread, onions, and of course the steak is amazing. Ppl friendly, and the atmosphere reminds me of what life used to or what life should be lol. Idk i guess iam getting to deep for just a review lol. My opinion try house of Rudy's you wont be disappointed.“

“Best Reuben I’ve had. Great bread. Sauerkraut was on point. And the tang of the dressing was perfect.

Also had the blondie and it was legit.

Will definitely seek this place out again when I’m in the area. Try it out. Prices are also very good for what you get. $10-15 for a quality sandwich.

Small shop inside with just a few tables but can easily take to go and eat at the park across the street.“

“awesome people, awesome food!!!“

“I order from here all the time because the sandwiches are delicious! Today, they forgot the mayo and pepper relish on both of our sandwiches so they were very dry and boring. I like to order online to customize my sandwich but what's the point if they skip the ingredients you want to add??“

“I've been to many, many different Jersey Mike's around the entire country - even the original one in Point Pleasant. The staff do a phenomenal job here and make this place the best one out of all the ones I've been to. It's always clean, the food is really good, and service is top notch. Over several visits the last few months it's been consistent too. This is a well deserved 5 stars. Thank you!!!“

“Delivered subs fancy tatse“

“Always wonderful experience and recommend everyone absolutely best place to eat .“

“The best Sandwich in Pittsburgh“

“I stopped going to Subway a few years ago because of quality was terrible. A couple of years ago I moved and was very close to this location in Westview plaza. I don't know if it is just this location or all subways have stepped up their game but I have never gotten a bad meal at this place!
Everything is fresh and it fills me up. The best part is I order through the app and they always have at least buy one get a second for 50% off and run a buy one get one free promotion very frequently. Currently they are doing the buy one get one free promotion and I have gone there three times in the last 5 days. All three times the food was delicious and did not take long to get. I highly recommend this place.“

“My third time there in 2 months...the steak is a great hometown taste for a franchise or chain restaurant. People are friendly funny and take pride in what they do I haven’t got past the steak yet because it’s that good. I am going to try something next visit (at least try to)“

“Everyone who works at this location makes DELICIOUS sandwiches. I’ve been here 4 times in the past week because of how good my sandwich was. It was not only good but fulfilling not stingy with toppings at all. Probably the best location in Pittsburgh! Thank you all!“

“Great happy hour specials!“

“It is a great place to be, and the employees have a good attitude.“

“Best in the Burgh!!! Steak subs 😋 yummy!“

“My wife and I stopped at this Firehouse Subs for the first time. We split a large Italian sub, which was plenty of food for a light lunch. The sandwich was not bad, but there was nothing special about it either. Most of the meat was just ham, with a wisp of salami (??maybe?), and there was very little cheese, lettuce and tomato, making it really just a warm ham sandwich. The only thing that made it somewhat Italian was the little bit of dressing they put on it. (NOTE: by the way, I didn't realize that all subs are HOT subs, unless you specifically ask for cold.) I may go back someday to try their cheesesteak, but not in a hurry to visit again. Final Verdict: Not bad, but nothing to write home about.“

“I live close to this subway and the two women who are working here are awesome. I know I will get consistent and methodically well made sub.Because the store is clean and the workers are friendly and welcoming I recommend this particular location.

Parking: The parking lot is in a plaza so there is plenty of parking.“

“I'm giving this a 5, because of the excellent way the young lady handled the situation. It was later at night and every other Subway was closed. This location said open. What the site DIDN'T say was that it was for pick up orders only... My phone wouldn't complete the order for some reason. Even though the owner for some reason had this poor girl working by HERSELF AT NIGHT IN OAKLAND at the only open Subway and she was SUPER busy, she took a second to take my order and made sure I was taken care of and did it with a great and positive attitude. I felt so bad that they had her there by herself... She was excellent and courteous. And the food was good as well. I'm appreciative of her.“

“If you don’t eat the prime rib on Tuesday and Thursday, you have yet to find your inner peace.... After every sandwich, my life feels complete. For at least an hour and a 1/2.“

“The best sandwich/food shop PERIOD! Very tasty, big portions and a great price! You cant ask for more! Don't cheat yourself, you gotta try it! I GUARANTEE you'll spread the word because you can't keep all that goodness to yourself! #HIGHLYRECOMMENDED“

“The service and atmosphere was great. I’ve been here a few times but last night was different. I felt bad for arriving so late but the one female Chelsie insured me it was fine. Very sweet and polite staff very friendly and the place is always clean. This is the best JM around and I come all the way from McKnight.“

“Amazing subs and love the chips!!!! George is awesome!!!!!!!“

“there was a gentleman working this evening 12/21 around 7pm - that was so kind and gave my kiddo a pink tiger for xmas as we waited in line for our sandwiches we’ve always had a good experience at this location 401 home drive Pittsburgh Pa but today’s experience made my kid so happy ! thank you again to the amazing man ! i’m sorry we didn’t catch your name and if i heard you right , congrats on your baby girl !“

“I come to this location MULTIPLE times a week. Sometimes it is my only escape from the stress of the day and it is the HIGHLIGHT
of my day. This team is always HUSTLING. Sometimes the universe isn’t working in their favor (A/C issues, RUDE customers, etc.) Despite these challenges, the staff is always friendly, personable and working hard. In a college town where the shop is always busy, you don’t always get that. People are LUCKY this shop is the way it is and should be less rude (hint: being kind costs $0 and no one appreciates you acting entitled customers) More businesses need to not sweat the small stuff and keep vibing along running business as usual. HIGHLY recommend this location if you wanna see friendly people working hard!“

“The entire staff was so friendly and accommodating. Chris the manager made a point to thank us for coming in and even gave us a free brownie to say thank you. The food was great with very fresh ingredients, one of the best hoagies I’ve had in a while. Great prices too!“

“This is the best subway I have ever been to! Everything is so fresh and extremely clean. The owners are always so nice and welcoming. I have come twice with my 2.5 year and 8 month old and they are always so sweet to the kids and the woman has given my older one a free cookie twice which she really appreciates. I saw other customers come in and the owner remembered everyone’s order if they had been in before which I find super impressive. I highly recommend coming to this subway! I’ll be back!“

“Shop just opened, I frequent the franchise... my experience today was great and worth taking the time to recognize the efforts of the manager. He recommended his favorite that I never tried and then he continued to step on the line and make it himself for me; I was blown away with the result. Might be my favorite cold sub ever. I will be back and recommend.“

“Very polite staff, great customer service. Hot or cold sandwiches, fast service. Can’t wait to go back 🥰❤️“

“Almost a hour to get food, others seated after us waited and served. Another table close by also complained of wait time. we were given the excuse that a large party came in ( not true) and large number of take outs (?). Not sure what type of meat tge burger was but was totally tasteless, took home and threw away. Most disappointing meal ever!! Jefferson Hills/Pleasant Hills“

“good philly cheesesteak.“

“I lived just up the road from this subway for the first 10 years of my life, the man behind the counter who I believe is the one you guys now call lucky is the most amazing person I’ve ever met in a subway and quite possibly any restaurant I’ve ever been to. I went in at least twice a week for 6-7 years and every time he knew my order, sometimes even giving double meat or cheese without asking. Love that man with all my heart and want him to know I’ll be back someday for my tuna sub!“

“Clean and friendly staff. I had the roasted chicken sandwich with chipotle sauce... It was GOOD!... ita been a while since I've had a subway sandwich, will be stopping in more often. Thanks for the quick meal and having a clean and friendly staff... good job“

“Always wonderful experience and recommend everyone absolutely best place to eat .“
