29 Best Sandwich Shops in Charleston

“Stopped here while out shopping on a girls trip and I still think about the GOAT sandwich to this day. It was the best sandwich to ever enter my mouth. To the chef, I love you. Don’t ever stop doing what you do. To the workers, you’re super cool and I appreciate you serving the best sandwich in the universe. This place deserves everything this world has to offer and more. I’ll never forget you, GOAT sandwich. Until we meet again xoxoxoxoxoxo“

“Since moving to CHS 4 years ago, not one place has been frequented like brown dog. Whether it’s a post church lunch, a meal with a new friend, or a quick bite to accompany a downtown expedition, brown dog never disappoints. I am a creature of habit and order the Cardi. B Crunch every time, but my friends have worked their way through the whole menu without coming across a single dish they didn’t love. Good vibes at the brown dog.“

“If you love authentic Italian sandwiches, Porkchetta is the place to go. Their sandwiches are served on fresh, homemade focaccia bread and packed with high-quality, fresh ingredients. Every bite is full of flavor, and the staff makes you feel right at home. An outstanding experience from start to finish — highly recommend!“

“Nice little neighborhood gem with fresh tasty panini, sandwiches, wraps, etc. Plus their fresh lemonade is delish too“

“My husband and I both tried the Classic. What a great chicken sandwich! It was delicious! We are going back tomorrow to try their smash burger 🍔“

“My family and I had Paisano's while on vacation last week. I can tell you that it was some of the best pizza and sandwiches we have ever had! We will definitely be back!“

“The customer service provided by Russell and his team was phenomenal. I placed a large online order for a work function and chose for it to be delivered. Russ called me as the Uber Eats Direct system was putting a 3 hour timeline on it but he was able to do the order right then. I asked him to prepare it and I would either come get it myself or see if Uber Eats would update the system. Since the system did not update and would still wait the 2.5 hours to deliver, I went to pick it up myself. When i returned to the hotel to divvy out the order, we realized a sandwich was missing. I called the store to ask them prepare the missing sandwich as I was on my way to pick it up- they asked what hotel and Russ delivered it personally. Minus the UberEats merchant system issues, I appreciate the excellent customer service that Russ and the team provided me. Wonderful!“

“This place was delicious! There is something for everyone here, Highly recommended 🔥🔥🔥“

“My experience at firehouse was amazing. Quick service, very friendly staff, and fresh sandwhich. My sandwhich was very good and before I could even sit down it was finished. I would definitely recommend firehouse for a quick tasty bite to eat.“

“The workers were very friendly and polite and they had the store very clean just an overall great experience“

“Cheat Day’s chopped cheese is hands down one of the best I’ve ever had! The flavors are perfectly balanced, with the cheese melting just right into the savory beef. It’s the ultimate comfort food—juicy, flavorful, and satisfying. The customer service is equally impressive; the staff is friendly, attentive, and they make sure your order is just the way you like it. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a meal with friends, Cheat Day always delivers a great experience!“

“The only issue I have is that new guy on the grill making the hot subs—he messes up my sub EVERY SINGLE TIME! How hard is it to follow a ticket? The young ladies who take the order write down exactly what I ask for, but as soon as it gets to him, it’s like he decides, “Screw it, I’ll do what I want!” Who does that? I’m beyond frustrated! I’ll probably go back because the place is decent otherwise, but I am DONE ordering hot subs unless I can stand there and personally supervise this guy messing with my food!!!“

“The employees are amazing. I go there and it's like going to Waffle House. They know your usual. I give them a 10 🌟 RATING. The ladies that work there are fabulous & Fantastic Plus they are all generous and kind. Diana is 1 of th3 best employees there. She is on top of her game when I walk through the door“

“I had such a great experience at Jersey Mike’s and wanted to specifically recognize Catie! She was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. She was so friendly, welcoming, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a great experience.

Great customer service can be hard to come by these days, but Catie is the kind of employee who really stands out. She was patient, attentive, had such a positive attitude, and made us feel like more than just another customer walking through the door. Our sandwiches were amazing, but her service is what made the experience especially memorable.

Jersey Mike’s is lucky to have someone like Catie representing their team. Employees who are kind, hardworking, and make customers actually want to come back deserve to be recognized — and Catie absolutely does! We’ll definitely be back. ❤“

“I appreciated being greeted so well with a smile when I went to stand in line to order my sub. The workers seemed happy to be there! They were very attentive concerning what items I wanted on my order! The customer service was A1 at this location! I asked for the manager, who was working just as hard as the other employees, and informed him of the amazing customer service. All workers were extremely pleasant and welcoming! Before I walked out of the door, they asked me what my name was again. What a great visit!“

“Excellent and upbeat customer service. Staff was so friendly with customers and with each other. My sub was delicious, Thank you!“

“I had an amazing experience tonight! The worker tonight name Andrea was incredibly kind, professional, and welcoming. She prepared my sandwich with such care and had a wonderful attitude the entire time. Her customer service truly stood out and that brightened my day.“

“I like the Subway at Citadel Mall in West Ashley. They are a good Subway in just about every aspect and the location is perfect inside the mall, but still enclosed and separate from the food court area. They are consistent in their quality and sandwich artistry and I have always had excellent sandwiches every time that I have been here. The staff here is cool and listens well.“

“This is by far my preferred jersey Mike’s for the Charleston area

They always get my order right the bread always taste Fresh, toppings are never skimpy & overall I enjoy my meal each & every time I visit

Staff is also courteous and expeditious“

“This is my favorite subway. I always do online orders so I never have issues with wait times. Even if its a busy day they always have my order ready. I come so often that its nice to see them there. My food is always hot or proper temperature, my sandwiches are always made well, and the staff is always friendly. Thank you for being there and I'm glad this is the closest subway to home.“

“Good food friendly staff 👌“

“Yall, I drive out of my way just to come to this subway. The employees are so sweet and nice at this location when I come and they always make my sandwich perfectly. Not too skimpy on the ingredients. Also it’s always SPOTLESS, both in the dining area and behind the counter. I always leave them a tip and YALL SHOULD TOO OKAY!“

“I usually don't have anything to say good when it comes down to subway but this subway definitely changes the narrative the subway worker who is female when approaching her I was sure it was going to be a bad customer service situation she had on shades and her face wasn't pleasant but when she started preparing our sandwiches the level of professionalism that was displayed was top tier she was definitely the true phase of don't judge a book but it's cover. She made those sandwiches with true love and you can tell she really enjoys her job . If all subways employees were like this they would definitely get better reviews . This young lady deserves a raise for sure my family member has been in the hospital for quite some time and to be honestly I only eat there when she works. Btw I believe her name is leslie.. as I call her the coolest subway worker with the shades“

“Fresh and delicious 😋 super fast delivery 🚚“

“Ive been very fortunate to have the same individuals take care of my online orders. Ali is a huge compliment for this franchise. I am grateful for his exceptional customer service and especially his customer care. I hope the employer values and takes care of the employees that make the difference and have customers come back.“

“Charleys Cheesesteaks at Citadel Mall is phenomenal! Tomas and his crew are all friendly and make the best sandwiches on the planet! Everything is always super fresh and tasty. Their Cheesesteaks are addictive and definitely a addiction that I don't want to give up!“

“Visited this location today for lunch, employee were very kind despite internet being down and not being able to process card transactions. I went next door to possibly get cash, ATM was down, and no cash back. A very sweet manager, Ms. Shay, gave me my sub for free. Sub was delicious, and a blessing from the staff to be so generous. Thank you!“

“The music was absolutely bumping and banging in this subway. You would’ve thought I was in a club. The wonderful lady behind the counter hooked up! One of the bests subways I have been to in the continental United States. I mean that because I’ve been to subways in England and they suck.“

“Exceptional service !!’The tall african American with dreads was amazing was clearly in management and runs a tight ship. I apologize for not getting his name but he has the crew being polite and doing an amazing job. Better experience than a few years ago.“
