14 Best Sandwich Shops in Chattanooga

“With your 1st step in the door you know you're in an authentic deli. I just love that smell of bread and meats that tell you how much you are going to love lunch. And if the aroma was not enough Bruce will described to you his specials for the day and some of his favorite recipes. Some are from a family tradition and others are from secret sources that he has made. If you're not sure about what you want ask for a taste! I got a seafood salad that was to-die-for. Oh my goodness, made the old fashion way with baby shrimp, yum! I also had their special sandwich of the day. Fresh ciabatta bread with Italian prosciutto, capicola, and other cold cuts. It was delicious and I couldn't finish it! During a slow moment of our time there Bruce came over to invite us back for breakfast to try their imported NY bagels and cream cheese or house smoked salmon. If you are in the area you should give them a try!“

“We used Lil Mama’s to cater lunch for our guest speakers for a local event this weekend. Kori and her staff were so sweet and happy to accommodate food allergies and our busy schedule, and the food was delicious! We loved working with them and will definitely be repeat customers!“

“I’ve only gotten food personally through DoorDash, but have picked up orders for customers on DoorDash at the restaurant. Absolutely the best sandwich in Chattanooga. The employees are all super friendly and very quick with getting your order. High recommend going in store or having it delivered! The food is always perfect when it arrives!!“

“This sandwich shop has been a favorite of mine for years. They have the best egg salad sandwich I've ever had traveling the country. I come to visit when I'm in town. Greg, the owner, is super cool and loves his customers.You should really go see for yourself.Tell Greg I sent you.Dietary restrictions: Gluten allergy“

“I have now gone to Mindy B's Deli twice. It's a great little deli with some great options to choose from on the menu. I was deciding between a couple of different items both times I went, and Mindy made some great recommendations each time.First time I ordered the special of the month for January of 2024. It was a baked falafel burger that came with tahini, tomato, cucumber, onion and I added pickles to it. It had a very good flavor and texture to it that was similar to some of my favorite black bean burgers.The second time, again from a recommendation, I ordered the Pineapple Express. This is a grilled wrap with chicken, barbecue sauce, pineapple, red onion, provolone cheese, cilantro and bacon (which I ordered without and instead added pickles). The grilled wrap was really nice and the whole thing is almost like a bbq chicken pizza in a wrap.Last, the sides I got each time were just as good as the sandwiches. I could order just the grilled vegetables and that would satisfy me. Then the three bean chili I had today was perfect, especially with it being in the single digits outside. The broth had great depth and a lot of vegetables in it.I look forward to trying some additional items off the menu and seeing what specials they have in the future.Vegetarian options: Almost all of the sides are and salads are vegetarian or can be made vegetarian or vegan. There are also a few vegetarian sandwiches.Dietary restrictions: There's a lot of vegetarian and seemingly vegan options here. One of the cookies is gluten free, too, I believe.“

“We ate at this sandwich shop on a visit to Chattanooga. It seemed like a local restaurant due to fact that there was always someone coming in to eat or to get take out. I have a grilled chicken salad that was fresh and cold. My husband had an impossible burger that he said was good. Staff were friendly and there were tables to eat in the restaurant.“

“There are places you go and you never know what to expect. THAT IS NOT ANKARS! The food is always delicious, quick service and a family atmosphereParking: They have plenty of parkingWheelchair accessibility: They have handicapped parking and easy access“

“Food was great as usual. I more so had a question about the bread. I got a croissant as usual but was just wondering if they have changed supplier or if this is just a new kind of croissant they are using as it was much different from ones I’ve had before. Not really flaky or layered and didn’t have the same texture.“

“Enjoyed our stop here for a late evening meal on our road trip. Standard menu for the chain. Restaurant area was clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Food portions were good.My husband likes the flatbread pizza. He asked to add black olives and was happily surprised by the amount of olives they used.I like the veggie salad, topped with grated cheese. Each ingredient was a generous serving.“

“Probably the best Subway I've been to in a long while. Staff was trying to take a break while we were there, but every time someone came in they all left their break and took care of the customers. Excellent! My sandwich was good and made well. I did not get the feeling that they were throwing it together and trying to get it over with. Obviously a better managed/trained shop than most.“

“Kingal carefully constructed the most perfect sandwich. Very attentive and there was a vegetarian patty option! Exceptionally clean dining space as well. Best Subway experience I’ve ever had.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian patty was available and delicious!!“

“Firehouse subs are a must if you are in town. Stopped by to get the sub. It was good, and the whole vibe was wonderful. It was pretty empty when we went there in the afternoon. They were selling pickle buckets, so my granny got 2 for $3 a piece.“

“We came in with a group of people and Joseph the employee was alone.... He handled all of our sandwiches with easy. He was super polite and professional. Our food was great! GIVE THIS GIY A RAISE!!! I would absolutely come back just because the level of customer service he provided to me and our group!“

“The staff here were excellent and the classic cheese steak is probably one of the better ones in the Chattanooga area as well don't have many choices for cheese steak in Chattanooga. I hate that this place is in the mall which absolutely sucks. I wish charleys would open a free standing joint somewhere.“
