50 Best Sandwich Shops in Austin

“Hands down best chicken biscuit sandwiches I've ever had in my life.“

“I mean.. I can't lie the sandwiches are on the small side. However, they're decently dense and the flavor is amazing.

Have you been disappointed by most of the restaurants downtown? You might finally get a decent meal if you go here.“

“Delicious! First time. The turkey and provolone was so good! 🥪“

“Hands down best chicken biscuit sandwiches I've ever had in my life.“

“My favorite Italian sub in Town. Took it to go today, so I coyest it during the Texas Kansas game.“

“Give these subs a try folks! Fantastic subs and a very passionate owner who you can't help but root for. I am partial to the Chicken Bacon Ranch (that challah bread tho) but everything else I've ever tried has been delicious. This is a no brainer recommendation to family and friends.“

“hot or cold you can't go wrong, plus bread is fresh and local“

“French Dip all the way! Always go there when I’m in Austin.“

“ThunderCloud Subs are the best! Been going there 30 years plus!“

“I just ordered from here delivery, and I ws very surpised at how good everything was. i would've never ordered their little sausage egg and cheese wrap thing, but i needed 2.75 or whatever to get the grubhub discount. and holy crap that little wrap thing was surprisingly good as well. meatball sub was one of the best i've had. the bread is so soft and almost like steamd or something in the best way. Can't wait until i am not full tomorrow so I can go here again. Thanks bella donna“

“Cheba hut has the most chill vibe, best happy hour, yummy food and amazing customer service!!! Every sandwich is perfectly crafted, and drinks are just amazing. Everyone that works there is amazing but specially Jackie, she makes sure you have a drink, makes you feel welcome and appreciated, she talks to everyone and if you don’t know what to drink or eat, ask her for her amazing recommendations!! Love coming to this place!!“

“I go to the Culver City location which is well run and has a friendly staff. Their awesome flavor combinations are put together by people who take pride in what they do. I try a different sandwich whenever I go and I've never been disappointed. Fresh ingredients. Generous portions. Caramel apple lollipops!! Definitely one of my favorite sandwich shops. You can taste the love!! 👍👍😁“

“Knuckle Sandwich was so incredibly tasty — loved this so much.

The flavors are bursting and you can’t really find this anywhere else in town.

I will say, this sandwich is expensive. I am okay paying for quality, but for the price point they set — I don’t think you get what you pay for. $22 for a full sandwich and $12 for a half, you’re paying a lot.

I don’t think anything needs to change with the product, just the price.“

“Always excellent at every location. New to Austin and it’s one of my favorite places to find. ❤️“

“Literally the best reason to go to Austin.
I was not surprised to read that one of the founders is from Upstate New York, as that is where the best subs in the country are from.
Every individual ingredient is on-point.
How wonderful to enter a business that has incredibly honest prices and really sweet people serving you.“

“Wow such unique, handcrafted sandwiches! I'm so happy I found this place! Absolutely delicious

Vegetarian options: Many options

Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free and vegan options, but yes they have premium meats as well“

“So delicious it's hard to believe it can be healthy, but it truly is! I have tried the chicken pita and also the grilled portobello & avocado and both are equally good. Love the fresh ingredients!“

“Not to be dramatic but this is my favorite lunch spot in the world.“

“They make a banger sandwich and always will. Been a customer for 10+ years and it has kept its consistency. Sure sometimes the staff seem a little annoyed when you just walk I but I would be too if I had to see me come in. They often lighten up and I’ve enjoyed great conversations with them.“

“In the area for a day and wanted to support local vs. a national chain. Our sandwich master was super friendly and attentive and the staff had great recommendations for what to do with the rest of our day! Highly recommend the turkish delight.“

“Staff was great, went outta their way when i asked the difference between extra meat/cheese and double meat/cheese on a #17 giant, double meat double cheese, no onions or bell peppers. Great sandwich, thanks Jersey Mike's at 620/Anderson Mill!!!!“

“ThunderCloud Subs is hands down the best sandwich shop I’ve ever been to. No matter the location, the time of day, or what I order, it’s always a fantastic experience. From the friendly service and spotless stores to the quality, value, and generous portions.

I’ve been visiting ThunderCloud for over ten years at over a dozen locations in Austin and even San Antonio, and the consistency has been 100% every single time. That kind of reliability is rare these days.

To everyone who works there, and to the owners, thank you! Please don’t change a thing, like so many other corporations do. Keep doing what you’re doing; it’s exactly what makes ThunderCloud special.“

“Fresh tasty food Friendly employees“

“Excellent sandwiches and chili was good too. Friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere.“

“Great vibes, friendly staff. I really liked the Yellow Submarine in the lobby, my sandwich knocked me off my feet! 🤩❤“

“Lilly’s Sandwich Shop is a hidden gem for delicious and affordable banh mi sandwiches. The bread is perfectly crisp, the fillings are flavorful, and the pickled veggies bring everything together. Definitely one of the better spots in town for a quick, satisfying bite.

The shop is small and convenient—perfect for a grab-and-go lunch—but just a heads-up: they don’t accept credit cards, so be sure to bring cash“

“Austin's Best and Local Sandwich shop. Fresh Ingredients Amazing Staff The LadyBird is the sandwich“

“You are an Austin institution. Part of the firmament“

“This is the best Jersey mikes I’ve ever been to in Austin! I literally go out of my way to go to this location even though there is another one closer to me.

They always make my order correct and it’s always fresh and delicious. What makes this the best store IMO is the customer service. Ever since it opened they have been consistently great. Today they were even willing to take my walk-in order just a few minutes before they closed and although they didn’t have to do that, they did anyways and did it with a smile and kindness.

The team here is amazing!“

“I ordered my go-to Beach Club and tried the potato salad.

The Beach Club was really lacking the avocado spread. It was still great - but I actually opened up the sandwich to see if it was even added. Tip - if you are an avocado fanatic order a little extra. I also asked to have the bread taken out (an option they offer) and cut in half - both of those requests were missed. No big deal in the grand scheme of things. The potato salad is 100% worth skipping. I thought it would contain more potatoes. It’s basically a mustard/mayo/dill concoction. Grab some chips instead and call it a day.

Store was quiet and very clean, staff was polite. I grabbed my bag off the shelf and left. (I ordered online for pickup) No real interaction necessary.“

“We enjoyed Mendocino Farms Arbor Trails!
The Peruvian Steak Sandwich was delicious and would be my pick again. It has a mild spice with alot of flavor.
The Farm House Club was good. The bacon was thick and toasted. It was also on the larger side so it was able to be split into two meals.
The location and employees were nice.
The price was a little high but we will likely eat again.“

“Great food. Hasn’t changed a bit in 40 years!“

“I always drop in when I am in town great sandwiches.“

“Great place with inside / outside tables, fast service and great food“

“We placed an online order, but went inside to warm up since it was cold outside. The sandwiches were delicious. They made them quick, and we got to chat with the owner. He was super charismatic, funny, and very friendly. We will definitely be back for subs, but we will also be back to chat with him more!“

“Jersey mikes is always a solid choice for sandwiches. Super fast service ,reasonable prices. Staff always seems to be cheerful. Place is always super clean.

Kid-friendliness: Kids loved it. Like I said super fast service a easy quick get in eat get out. Love these guys“

“Finally tried ThunderCloud subs & quite enjoyed it! Inexpensive, $8 Italian sub, very tasty for a quick lunch stop. Pretty simple and direct, I included 1/2 & 1/2 sweet & spicy peppers which was a solid choice. Staff was friendly too! I'll be back!“

“I get a fresh and great tasting sandwich every time! You need a Firehouse Subs in Bastrop!!“

“They were fast and I was very satisfied with my experience. First time in their drive-through, and even though there was a bit of a line I made it through in time without needing to rush to my event haha. I appreciated how nice they were when I forgot some things on the menu.

Friendly atmosphere, wonderful to see a family eating inside the compact store. Best sando from T-cloud yet!“

“Ahhh, I have been waiting for Mendo since I found out they were opening two new locations here in Austin!!! I usually get Farm Club, pretty basic but solid option, but to celebrate a new beginning, I tried the Not-So-Fried Chicken Sandwich with the Gold BBQ, and it did not disappoint! Usually have texture problems with tomatoes, but these were not soft and squishy, and the chicken not being so fried definitely helped with the taste. Fully fried would have been too heavy and I feel like that wouldn’t feel like Mendo’s vibe. And the BBQ! I think it’s better on the side so you can get the best of both worlds (with and without BBQ). We received a complimentary couscous (first time trying) for the wait, so that was really nice of them. It was good, had a faint kick to it, but it kept me wanting to eat more and more. Overall, it was a great visit, and I wouldn’t hesitate to come back!“

“My wife and came in this afternoon. my wife got the prime rib Sandwhich and Order of Soup. and I got pastrami and provolone Food was great. we will be Back.“

“Love the Cali on wheat!!!!“

“Best time ever..Great service Everytime i visit any JM in Austin..thanks to the employees here at hancock center for Awsome service!!!“

“We been getting subs from this Jersey Mike's for a while and they've always been good, except last time. As usual, we ordered the #13 (Original Italian), "Mike's Way", but were disappointed when we got home and found the sub had MAYO on it. An Italian sub should never have mayo! Will watch like a hawk next time.“

“Always welcomes costumers when we walk through the door. I like the coke machine dispenser offering a wide variety of flavors. I really enjoy the italian sandwich.“

“Great burger!! It a touch pricy for HEB but still a market price for the general burger in town.
Those fries are a like a twisted wedge fry but they are nice and crispy and seasoned outside, fluffy inside. Spent $28 on my burger with a few upgrades and chili cheese fries option on fries.

Honestly it was enough for two people. So price might seem a bit steep but portions are proper. Definitely worth a visit.“

“Haven't been in a while so I was surprised by a gentleman directing me to napkins and drinks after I ordered. He then brought our meals and told us not to worry about cleaning up after ourselves. Brought us a couple of forks to eat the Cinnabons with. Bussed our table when we finished. I felt really badly that the one cash I had on me was a couple of coins. I wanted to tip him for excellent t service. Thank you, sir!“

“Place was clean. But Emma so sweet and awesome! Loved her she deserves a Raise. Im not from Austin im from Mcallen but when in Austin Will definitely come back for her! Make sure you ask for her very sweet and friendly person 😊“

“Amazing customer service, amazing and fast service, one of the best subs I've ever eaten“
