50 Best Sandwich Shops in Denver

“Talk about filling a void you never knew existed! Holy Moses! We decided to stop in here since it’s so close to the VRBO, and good lord am I glad we did! My wife ordered the original, MIL and I ordered the Al Pastor, and I have never been so happy and sad at the same time! The sandwich was divine! I can’t stand that it’s gone but so happy I had it. Haha the atmosphere in the place is so down to earth and raw with it’s authenticity its a unique feel in todays gentrified aesthetics. AJ the owner (I believe) was super accommodating and extremely approachable and friendly. Good chance that we will try and make a stop before we go home again!

Sorry I didn’t get a shot of the sandwich, once I started I couldn’t put it down 😅“

“Had a blast at Bodega Denver this Sunday afternoon. Great sandwiches and this joint had a fun funky atmosphere. They also offer vegan options for our half vegan family“

“This is the kind of sandwich that makes your stop scrolling on your phone and actually savor what you’re eating! The employee recommended the Lemongrass Grilled Pork Banh Mi sandwich and it was exactly what I was looking for. It’s probably a good thing I don’t live in the area because I would eat here every single day!“

“Great vegan subs! I can't wait to go back when my belly is empty again.“

“Charlie at Cheba Hut sets the standard for what incredible customer service looks like. From the moment I walked in, he was completely charming and brought a warm, welcoming vibe to the bar . What really stood out, though, was just how empathetic and respectful he was throughout the entire interaction. He took the time to listen, handled everything with genuine care and patience, and made me feel completely valued as a customer. It is rare to meet someone who balances a charismatic personality with such authentic, thoughtful kindness, Cheba Hut has an absolute gem on their team—thank you, Charlie for turning a quick meal into an unforgettable visit!“

“The hangover and flapjack Friday are awesome, and the potatoes are amazing too 😊😊“

“Truly an amazing experience ever time I go, you learn new things about things each and every time you show up. Like this time in particular I learned about the secret menu. Make sure to ask about, That alongside the regular menu. It's a great selection of sandwiches you won't find anywhere else. I would definitely recommend coming in rather by yourself or with a group of friends. Very low-key and friendly crowd and the employees are very helpful to help you make your final selection. I will be coming back again sometime in the near future whenever I'm back to visit Denver. I would definitely recommend this location!!! While the others are very nice as well, this one in particular as a certain type of connection to it that you'll learn the problem soon as you arrive.“

“Cute 420 themed establishment with tasty subs, unique mural on the wall, and friendly staff. Soda machine was down but bar was accommodating. All food was hot and tasty. A bit pricey but what isn't these days? Would consider eating there again.“

“Ray from the Longmont location was amazing!! He took great care of our group of 8. Even while being short staffed the service was still fast and great!! Thank you Ray!!“

“One of the BEST deli. Sandwiches I ever had, and the Tall lady behind the counter was awesome! Looking forward to going back for another one.“

“We dropped by on a Sunday morning and the baked goods (sweets) were delicious! The Lemon Olive Oil cake- yes, I could eat half the cake! The Rice Crispy treat- soft and so good you will regret you ate the whole thing in one sitting! Support this sandwich and bakery shop along with all the great spots in the Five Points neighborhood!“

“What a little gem! I had their sticky pork banh mi and I have to say the flavor bomb exploded in my mouth! The bread was crispy on the outside, soft inside, but the meat is what stole the show. The slices were thick and the sauce delightful. Good portion size. I usually eat half for lunch and take the other half home. It reminds of banh mi I had in Vietnam! 10/10“

“Great local joint. Awesome people. Loved the gluten-free green chili Colorado beef sandwich.“

“Everything is sooo good here! I always stop by to grab something to bring home and eat after work.“

“Worth the wait! Italian was delicious, bread was amazing! Can’t beat the price! Staff killed it, so pleasant despite the customers waiting“

“The staff here is WONDERFUL!! Staff can make or break a place. The staff here hands down makes it!! Very welcoming and kind! Manager was one of the best!! 10 out of 10!!!i wish I had gotten his name!! But he knows who he is!! Fabulous!! Keep up the kind work. You are making a difference!!“

“The sandwiches are unique and delicious.
This location is pretty small but does have outdoor seating. Food is made fresh. Be prepared to wait 20 to 40 minutes for your food.
There is something very wrong with the lemonade and the iced tea at this location...They are just nasty.“

“This was a lovely experience from start to finish both times coming here.

From stepping in and being very welcomed! Then asked what sounded good.

Easy to order. The food is easily updating depending on dietary preference.

Delicious food!
Great atmosphere!

The food though damn. Everything has been absolutely amazing and fresh!

Definitely becoming a regular place to eat.“

“The staff is amazing and so is the food you can't go wrong with the special of the day for $11.50!“

“Delicious Sandwiches and Staff was AMAZING!!! We will be back for sure!“

“As a Vietnamese customer, I really appreciate this little bánh mì shop. The bánh mì here is delicious and very close to the authentic taste in Vietnam — crispy bread, flavorful fillings, and fresh vegetables that make every bite satisfying. Besides bánh mì, they also have other Vietnamese favorites like sticky rice (xôi), steamed buns (bánh bao), and more. Everything I tried was really tasty and comforting, just like the street food I grew up with.

From the outside, the shop may not look very fancy or luxurious, but once you walk in, it feels warm and welcoming. The atmosphere inside reminds me a lot of Vietnam — simple, cozy, and full of that familiar feeling of home.

What makes this place even more special is the owner. They are very kind and friendly, and I heard that they even send money back to Vietnam to help children in difficult areas. That kind of generosity and heart makes me respect this place even more.

Great food, warm atmosphere, and kind people behind it. I’m very happy to support this business. Definitely a 5-star experience for me! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Normally, I love Jersey Mikes tonight wass the first time service was good the two subs were very below their normal very disappointing. I will need to think about ever returning.“

“This is one of my favorite places to go and have a nice meal with incredible service. Here they even offer gluten free bread which is not normal for a sub shop!! They are so nice and welcoming! 100% would recommend this to anyone to likes sandwiches.“

“Delicious Sandwiches and Staff was AMAZING!!! We will be back for sure!“

“Very good service and good food“

“Love this store. Always bring out-of-town guests here because it is a great experience. Friends can always buy local products to take home. So many extraordinary products beautifully displayed. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Always have a great time shopping here.“

“Great sandwiches, fresh local everything, cool peeps...eat this $hit immediately! Platte Park CORNERSTONE in the making. Sooo good 😬“

“bangin sammys 🔥🔥🔥🔥 thick turkey - The Telluride“

“Had the chilli loaded on a cold day and it was delicious“

“Snarf’s on Federal is hands down one of the best sandwich spots in Denver. Every time I come here, the food hits the mark—fresh ingredients, perfect bread, and that signature Snarf’s flavor you can’t get anywhere else.

The staff is fast, friendly, and they keep things running smoothly even during the lunch rush. Whether you’re grabbing a hot Italian, turkey and swiss, or their killer veggie options, you can’t go wrong.

It’s clear this place takes pride in what they do. If you’re a sandwich person, this needs to be on your go-to list in Denver. Solid five stars.“

“I been here twice had the turkey sandwich on slice bagel bread the 1st time and the 2nd time I had the tune on slice bagel bread and the mango tea. so far I love this place everything nice and clean and excellent customer service. I will be back.“

“Appreciated the top notch service from Mike. Kind responsive and polite. Love this place. Got the meatball sub and love the ginormous hot sauce selections!!!...Matt“

“So I had to write a review because this is consistently the BEST JJ in Colorado. I’ve been to many locations multiple times. None of them compare to this one. They are friendly, have the best and freshest ingredients and make my sandwich perfect every time. I’m vegetarian due to cancer and it seems impossible to get any other location to make me a good veggie sandwich. They make what I ask for including extra lettuce and cucumbers. You would think it wouldn’t be that hard, but it is for other locations. Highly recommend this location. Thanks for always being kind and making my sandwich right!“

“The staff is always super friendly and the sandwiches are awesome!“

“I’m obsessed over the turkey sandwich. The pickled onions and what I think is a horseradish sauce really make it above all the others. Highly recommend!“

“Great Italian sammich. Highly suggest this joint.“

“What is up with trying to sell a can of Arizona Iced Tea marked 99¢ on the can for $2.45? That seems like bad form.“

“Super friendly staff and delicious, fresh tasting sandwiches - we assumed it was a pay and pick up at the counter style, but one of the staff was kind enough to bring the sandwiches to our table. The Ridgeline was amazing with the perfect amount of sauce complimenting the juicy cold cuts and crisp veggies. The portions were large for a good price (in this economy?!) and shareable (unless you're a shameless foodie like me). Hope to come back soon and try their other specialties!“

“I love it when a new business comes to the neighborhood and appreciates its customers! Anybody and everybody can make a mistake, yet isn’t it great when a ‘Super Hero’ corrects the mistake graciously? Well Ed Collier manager at Jersey Mike’s on Tower Rd was that ‘Super Hero’ today. Thank you again and welcome to the neighborhood“

“delicious Italian food! wonderful and locally owned! yum!!!!“

“Really enjoyed visiting Snarfs for the first time. Delicious food and friendly staff!“

“I’ve known Snarf soooo far back! The food is so good, very clean and all the employees are super nice. Great place to go!“

“My sandwich was really yummy and was as bit unique, I hadn’t had one like it. (The Mediterranean.) The staff person who made our sandwiches was excellent, and food was good. The tables needed a bit of cleaning and my boyfriend had grabbed chips that were best by a couple months ago were the only hang ups.“

“I’m from where the original Head West is in Illinois and I have bragged endlessly to people in Denver about how good these subs are and how nothing compares here. Imagine my excitement when I find out this location opened up. Don’t think twice - eat here!!! Way better than Cheba and Snarf’s combined“

“I haven’t seen a Quiznos in forever!!

Today I saw this location while in terminal a. I almost did not stop but so glad I did.

I ended up getting the bbq steak sandwich. Total price with drink and chips about $25.
It’s a bit pricey for a sandwich but man they make a good one.

Totally worth stopping in and checking out. This would have easily fed two and was absolutely amazing.
Best sandwich chain by far ever“

“The Vietnamese Pork and the Shrimp Paste Bahn Mi Sandwiches were excellent and full of flavor. I recommend this Bakery. It’s not an eat-in place but great food makes it a go-to Bahn Mi destination.“

“I normally LOVE Snarf’s, to the point where I eat there at least once every couple weeks. Tonight I went and picked up my regular order, corned beef and provolone with everything on it except tomato. I got there around 8:30 with half an hour until closing, ordered my sandwich to-go and went home. When I got home I opened my sandwich and it was made horribly with nothing I ordered on it. I’ve never been so disappointed in Snarfs, it’s giving me major Subway vibes. The only thing they put on my sandwich was lettuce, corned beef, and onion. Nothing else. No condiments, no cheese, no peppers, nothing. I was waiting all day to get home from work and grab Snarfs for dinner, now I wish I would have gone to Quiznos or something.

EDIT: I’ve updated my review to full stars after getting a personal call from the manager and having all of my issues addressed and fixed. I’m extremely grateful to the manager and Snarf’s as a whole. Thank you so much for caring!“

“Stop here every time we come in from Ohio!“

“Loved the prime rib sandwich, now just need a utah residence. I've eaten more expensive sandwiches for the same price if not more expensive, and Snarfs prime Rib beats them. Though wish gluten free was more affordable or had a sourdough, and couple more ingredients like avacado and olives. But even without I think the prime Rib is one of the best sandwiches you can buy, better than any deli sandwich place that's local where I live.“
