Weekend wait: No dinner service—sandwich counter closes by early evening.
Weekday lunch: Typically 5–10 minutes for made-to-order sandwiches, longer during peak noon rush.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—custom builds and a few veggie-forward specials like caprese or avocado sandwiches.

Gluten-free options: No dedicated gluten-free bread or prep space, though lettuce wraps are possible if you ask.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not really—it’s more a quick, grab-and-go counter than a sit-down destination. Better for a casual meetup or solo lunch.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—there’s no table service and no reservations; just order at the counter and find a nearby bench or curb spot.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes for quick bites—simple sandwiches, bottled drinks, and chips keep it easy. No seating or restrooms for extended stays.
Best For
Better for: Fast, value-packed sandwiches that punch above their weight; especially strong on bread quality and portions.
Skip if: You’re looking for atmosphere, café seating, or specialty ingredients—this is a straight-shooting market deli.
