33 Best Sandwich Shops in Milwaukee

“Went for the first time today for a doggo lunch date with muh fur baby. Wonderful staff and quick service. I noticed negative reviews complaining there was dogs, well no crap it’s the business model and there’s an actual picture of a dog on the door and logo. ANYWAYS price is a little steep but when I got my food holy cow it was delicious. And I love that they have dog friendly menu items available as well. The place is super clean for the amount of guests and animals that come through. Loved that the food pickup and service area is separate from dining. The only downfall was I did pay for pickles and there wasn’t any but I didn’t even notice it until I devoured the first half of my food. No big deal. I ordered the steak sandwich and strawberry limeade which I also love is made by hand with fresh fruit. My dog is now sleeping in a food coma as am I.“

“My new spot for subs. I didn't realize how I love mines toasted. I had never tried it that way before however, from the sauce to the extra pickles I get for the crunch it was awesome. The next day even cold it was off the chain, not soggy, still hint of spicy and every bite was great for a late night snack.“

“Take out deli that makes their sandwiches fresh to order. Known for their corned beef and pastrami but there are many more offerings worth your visit. The prep of your order takes time, be patient. You can wait in your car as they call your order over a speaker outside the restaurant. Delicious sandwich hack: order your sandwich on toasted Texas toast, thank me later. The sandwiches are great, the portions mirror the times, but it is a lunch sandwich you will find memorable. I highly recommend, I would visit again and again. Mark this on your must go.“

“Unbelievable sandwiches, can’t wait to go back! Was in town from Chicago and dropped by before heading home, best decision ever! Even got a sammich to go!“

“The subs are great, really fresh bread even when you order close to closing time. I have Celiac and ask that they make mine up normal but put it in a dish for me to transfer to my own baguette. Very accommodating!“

“Love the Chicken, Rice, and Gravy.🥰“

“We can also count on Charleys for Over The Top Great Food, including Milwaukee's Best Sundae. Better than Leon's! We can count on David for great service. He replaced Angelina, another Service Superstar. We are longtime Senior Citizen Customers whom love the High Quality Great Tasting Food for Less which Charleys Always Offers. This is why we keep coming back, driving a few miles to get there. Go Brewers!“

“Silvia is the best great personality answered all questions for me made a great sandwich so helpful great ideas for the subs we eat we will absolutely be coming back shes the best 👌 she needs a raise lol thank you so much the best person to help you and make your sub fresh bread fresh veggies great attitude thank you again“

“First try was in AZ. Then Nv.i visit both areas often and always still have to get a bite. Fresh every single time. I was so stoked to find yall in WI. 420 vibes and full bar at a sub shop is a dream. Never disappointed. Ever! I have tried every single sub on the menu. Added extras. Pay for the quality. Happy every time. Super satisfied with the seasonal ipa on tap! Yes
On Tap!“

“Exceptional place! Super clean and kind staff! The food was fresh and I will definitely be a returning customer at this specific location. Great job! And attention to details! The windows were so clean it looked like there wasn't even a window there! Good job everyone! :)“

“1/29/24. Omg had the best delicious chicken today, seasoned just right crispy golden brown chicken. Taste just like my mom @grandmother chicken. We ordered the 14 piece chicken it was hot when delivered. Who ever cooked that chicken, i hope when I order again you cook it..“

“I can’t imagine a better partner for this event. A-plus 600 East Cafe. If there were a Nobel prize given for awesome events your team would be on a plane to Stockholm tonight!“

“Awesome Cousins! Super clean, great staff, and the owner ROCKS!!! LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!“

“Best corned beef in Wisconsin. Don't come more than once a week, however, as your blood will feel thicker even after one sandwich. Absolutely recommend, my dad introdu ed me to this place and it is the best Reuben you'll get for a long ways.“

“Food was fresh. UPDATE!!!!! 5/3/26 ordered a hot ham and cheese on Parmesan Aisgo bread. As you can see from the picture that is not the bread that I ordered and that’s the second sub. The first one was cold and I asked for A hot Sub. When I brought the sub back, nobody apologized nothing. These subs are not five and six dollars a half inch Sub is running every bit of 10. Not cool“

“The Brisket is delish! Service was fast and friendly!“

“I'm not from Milwaukee but everytime I come to Milwaukee that's all I eat is cousin subs“

“"Cousin's Subs on 6th and Layton is a convenient location for a quick and delicious lunch. I recently enjoyed a fantastic chicken sandwich there. The chicken was perfectly cooked, and the sandwich was packed with flavor. The staff was friendly and provided excellent service. Definitely a great option in the area!"“

“very great subs always fresh“

“I like this place except for 1 thing. They don't prioritize online orders. The app says 20 minutes until your order is ready but they don't start your order until you get there and then you have to wait for all the people who might be in front of you. Kinda frustrating but the food is always good.“

“1st and NationalSlow serviceCalled in ahead of time for 2 whole subsItalian Special with no lettuce and they put on alot of lettuceMeatball and provoloneHad to wait an extra 15 minutes in their lobby while they made my subs. SMH2 whole subs $35 ... won't be going back“

“I'm proud of them for keeping this store open.
I lived in the area over 10 years ago..Everytime I'm in town I go here. Never disappoints. They add on new items which is neat. Just watch out for random ppl walking around say no for change most will keep it moving“

“Excellent sandwiches and the lady behind the counter was amazing.“

“By far the best sandwiches I've had. They blow subway an cousins an even jimmy johns out of this world 🌎 ❤️💯“

“we were looking for a place downtown that was open for lunch.“

“Great Customer Service, freshest veggies, meats, cheeses & soups. I've been getting Subway for decades now all from a wide range of locations, since Subway is a very large and well known restaurant and I will admit there are a few locations that barely reach 3 stars within the "Subway" franchises. Luckily, at 98% of my home States have all been 4 stars or more. I usually call ahead, place my order for specific pick up time. I've been going nearly every day for several years to a handful of locations and they top 3 are my 1st places to call. If you have any problems with the stores and the actual Manager isn't there, please complete your due diligence to ensure fairness to the store & the employees. This is to ensure you're not cheating yourself while keeping a shotty store afloat.“

“I love everything Cousin’s offers, although no two individual franchises are alike. This one’s got the goods.“

“Thanks Carlos m

The guy said that I will receive my food in 10 minutes. That was out 458 and at 5:08. I’ll receive my food. Thanks for telling me the truth. Any really do have good customer service this name is Carlos m. It was two females in there as well. They also greet me. Offered to serve as soon as I entered the building. What crazy is that He said 10 minutes and I thought it was gonna be like 15 and I was gonna get him a four star because I don’t like being lied to this was my first time visiting. This is the only picture I got, but believe that from the ceiling to the floor was clean. I did not want to be weird and got the taken pictures.“

“My first time there today,the sub was delicious ,better than most sub places Ive been too. However,I wasn't asked what size sub I wanted,the employee just assumed. Then,I told the employee what I wanted on the sub but she keep asking .She was about to remake my sub due to me begin Allergic to tomatoes,but i keep Benadryl in my work bag. If anything they need to work on training their staff alittle better..Yes,I'll be bavk“

“We visited cousins subs in Milwaukee and I wasn't too impressed with the atmosphere. Honestly a bunch of glass between us and the people cooking the food made the atmosphere seem uncomfortable of a little but being in Milwaukee I can understand“

“The food and service is amazing even with only 2 people most of the time with great pizza, footlongs, and sandwiches. The atmosphere is very dull and bad with no music or noise since most people don’t eat inside. They also accept every app that I can think of that delivers.

Vegetarian options: Subway is very vegetarian friendly but I’m not vegetarian but I worry about cross contamination since employees don’t change gloves and keep meat and vegetables next to each other.

Dietary restrictions: You don’t have to worry about dietary restrictions since you make your own sandwich but if you have a deadly allergy I don’t recommend since cross contamination.

Parking: Very easy to find a parking lot but might have to walk a bit.

Kid-friendliness: As long as you keep your kid under control it should be fine and is very kid friendly as the workers are very understanding.“

“I order for delivery from JJ all the time. It always arrives quickly, made correctly, and tastes great. I always get their veggie sandwich; not because I am a vegetarian, but because they are the only place that makes a tasty veggie sub! Their service is fine for their other sandwiches, but other places make equally good ham, beef, or turkey sandwiches so they don't stand out. But their veggie sub? Delicious, and nobody else has anything like it.“
