    Large Hebrew Hammer and Large Beef Cheese Steak
    Cynthia C.

    I have slightly mixed feelings because the food was good but my body was wrecked the next day. I tried their Philly cheesesteak and the Hebrew Hammer. They offer both a small and a large, and I got both larges which may have been my first mistake. Those sandwiches were absolute units and stuffed to the brim. I'm obsessed with sesame bread they use for the sandwiches, and you can definitely tell they make them in-house with how fresh and fluffy it is. Between the 2 sandwiches, I like them for different reasons. However, I am very lactose intolerant so I could only have a few bites of the Philly cheesesteak but that may have played a crucial role in my demise the next day. Definitely add some hot peppers to this one! It was tender, savory, and the peppers added a slight kick to cut through the richness of the beef and cheese. The Hebrew Hammer was delicious, but I found the spicy mustard slathered along the spine of the bread to be a bit too horseradish-forward. Overall, solid sandwiches with insane portion sizes.

    "The best hoagie in D.C. is at Bub & Pop's," my editor at The Washington Post always said. When their original downtown location shut down, I was nervous, but they live on- just in a very different space. Meeting a good friend here for lunch on a Friday, here's our experience. 1) Food: With Philly roots, they know how to do sandwiches. You can't go wrong but note that the portion are HUGE. They are so big, it can be messy to eat. I enjoy their beef cheesesteak with hot peppers. It's delicious with the melted cheese on top. 2) Space: It's massive with a bar and plenty of seating. There are also a small bowling alley and arcade games. 3) Service: It's kind. You order from a tablet and staff bring you your food when it's ready. 4) Area: It's along Florida Avenue NW at a very busy intersection. DO NOT TRY TO PARK ON THE STREET NEARBY. Instead, park in the parking garage or snag free parking at the garage behind La Cosecha and walk over. It's a very busy area now with apartment buildings, the Metro, shops, and restaurants.

    So here's the thing the cheesesteak is mid at best. But the fact they cut it with the foil around it, the foil gets into the meat. Not safe. Honestly just wouldn't return

    This is nice bar for friends gathering and games for families with kids. There is a good amount of area of seating and even a couch by the bowling lanes. There is small or even large seating depending on party size. The food is pretty good and everything is house made if I remember correctly. I like the sandwiches since they make the bread fresh every morning. The staff is friendly and very welcoming. You order from the kiosk and get a number and when your order is ready they will yell your number.

    Inspired by the Guy Fieri stop, I was looking forward to a mom and pop vibe but arrived to a new location that felt a little bit like a blend of a bar meets arcade. Sat at the bar and you had to order each time individually which was a bit weird...no open tabs if sitting at bar and gratuity included each time in bill. Nevertheless, excited to try the Hebrew hammer. Enjoyed the creamy slaw. Corned beef tender and somehow mild on saltiness for multiple meats. I'd go with the Italian next time because that was offered hot. Hebrew was not. Glad I tried it but the Italian is speaking to me if I make it there again.

    When I tell you I had no expectation but it exceeded whatever I was thinking. The wings and them cornbread stick were definitely the star of the show. It was delicious. Now I will say that when I entered the hostess was the friendliest and she acted as if I was supposed to know that you must order from the tablet on the counter. This was my first time visiting so a warmer welcome would have made the experience better. I would definitely order from here again.

    Absolutely legendary sandwich spot in DC. I was so glad to discover they decided to to move locations to Noma! I visited when they first opened this new location so menu options were quite limited, but my sandwich was very tasty despite not being my usual order. Although, I got some serious food jealousy towards my friends who ordered the chicken/eggplant parm sandwiches. Staff were very friendly and the new space definitely has strong potential!! It looks like a great hangout spot.

    Feta sandwich

    So so amazing! I ordered a to-go order but will be going back to sit and enjoy the games, and their Italian ice they make their (which you can add ice cream to!!). I picked up their fried chicken cutlet hoagie for myself, with provolone dulce, hoagie relish, arugula, Roma tomatoes, and their homemade vinaigrette and pecorino Romano My friend wanted their Beanie's feta with eggplant caponata, hazelnut gremolata, caramelized onions, roasted mushrooms, grilled asparagus, roasted red peppers, oven-dried tomatoes, balsamic, grilled fennel, arugula and pecorino Romano We grabbed their French onion dip and chips which were to die for too, will definitely be getting again The sandwiches were huge (I was able to divy mine up into a few meals), but we were surprised the onion dip was small. Still worth it though!!

    One of the most legit sandwich restaurants in DC. I'm so glad they moved to the larger space in NoMa, I think they've only gotten started there and I'm excited for their menu to expand. The bread is freshly baked, and I love the flavor bomb in each sandwich. Order is via self service screens when you walk in and they call out your order or bring it to your table. Plenty of seating and really cozy!

    Bub's Italian Hoagie

    Great local sandwich spot! All the subs are great and loaded. The Italian Hoagie is my favorite, it comes with a bunch of Parmesan cheese on top it's great, but the Meatball Parm and Chicken Parm are also awesome too! The sandwiches are like $17-ish each, which isn't bad considering how huge they are. Great spot with a very cute store in NE!

    New location in Noma, pretty incredible sandwiches. Huge sandwiches, you could easily share. Subpar bar, went during happy hour for $5 beer, $9 wine. Wish they had draft beer.

    Bowling & arcade games inside
    Ashlie J.

    I love an Italian Sub, but I'm picky. It must be grilled/baked. Let's just say Bub and Pop's happily fulfilled that request! The Bub's Italian Hoagie will now be my go-to there. One downfall is they're a type pricey, but the hoagie is large so you can share or save some for later.

    Bobbi D.

    THIS PLACE IS SO COOL! So unexpected, there's a whole arcade and bowling and everything! I thought this was gonna be a cute little sandwich shop, but it is much more than that! I will definitely be coming back here for an evening out!

    See all

    I live ~10 min drive north from this location. This is my second time coming for a private event…read moreand both times I've come, I've said out loud, "I should order takeout from them once a week!!" They operate a deli counter in the front and a bar / speakeasy in the back. You can rent out the bar space for private events. Last night, we had the space (and a bartender!) to ourselves, along with 3-4 different types of sandwiches. There is something SPECIAL about their seeded Italian bread. The perfect flakiness and texture. I enjoyed the chicken fontina and Italian. The caprese was my least favorite--not sure if they use a balsamic or what, but the flavor wasn't coming through. Before I left, I decided to order a large chicken cheesesteak to take home for lunch the next day. It was a bit of a risk to order a hot sandwich that I would have in the fridge overnight but I heated it up in our air fryer/toaster oven for all of 10 mins and the bread was good (not soggy) and the sandwich itself was delicious. I enjoyed it so much, I didn't stop to take a photo until the last bite :) It's a decent size sandwich--I ate half for lunch (along with my own chips and veggies) and have another half for tomorrow so while it's not cheap, I think it's reasonable.

Other places make loaded sandwiches... save your money!!

It's primarily a take-out shop with a dozen or sandwiches and a few sides. The Truth veggie sandwich was bursting with flavor with sweet potato, crispy eggplant, juicy portobello mushoroom, and creamy lentil aioli stuffed between whole wheat bread. It was so good that I didn't even miss not cheese! Initially, I thought about adding cheese, but glad I didn't and stuck with the classic sandwich. By the time I made it through a couple of bites of the 2nd half of my sandwich, I was stuffed and didn't have any room or a craving for chips or fries that I typically get. It was a simple sandwich with quality ingredients made well. Crossing my fingers that the veggie The Truth sandwich stays on the menu and looking forward to coming back to try other sandwiches!

Most people I work with don't like to venture out too much, but for me, I will put in the footwork to find a new place that I can throw into my rotation. After a quick walk I was here and thrown into the madness with everyone else. I purposefully showed up after what I though was going to be the lunch rush and was surprised by the amount of people still piling in to grab themselves some lunch like me. I'm going to be honest here, I had no idea what I was doing in here as it was my first visit. I had no idea how things worked in this circus, but I was going to try my best to fit in. When I got inside I stood in a line that I though was the place to be. I had no clue if this is how this place flowed, but I went with it. Luckily for me it was the right thing to do. That line had constant movement and before I knew it I was at the front and placing my order. I ordered two sandwiches and fries (they were on special that day). Then this is where you get to sit back and enjoy the show. After you order you are given your number for your order and you kind of just get pushed off to the sides and are able to take it all in. This is where I realized that there really isn't any one particular way to go about getting food in here. In the middle of it all is the hot/cold bar where you can order salads, sides and soups. I was wondering how some people were getting out of here so fast and that was it, some knew they wanted to just have some soup or nosh on a salad and that was the way for them. As I am watching the show in front of me, I keep getting pushed back further and further to what I am assuming is a corridor that connects to the main building or the restrooms. I kept seeing people getting their orders as I stood there. Finally they called my number and told me I still had to wait for the fries. If I would have known it was going to take that long I probably wouldn't have ordered them. But that also let me look over the coolers for a drink and then eventually get a dessert, even though I didn't need one. My fries were finally done and I got in line to pay. The circus continues here as there are multiple lines, but no one knows which one they should be getting into. With my food in hand and having paid, I was finally able to get out the door and back to my office. I ordered two sandwiches here because I knew I was going to be in the office late that evening and it was like killing two birds with one stone type of situation. For my lunchtime sandwich I went with a BLT as I have been on that kick for a minute now. It was delicious and I was happy to have that pickle wrapped up in there with it. For my later meal I went with an egg salad sandwich which I knew would hold better in a fridge for later. Also paired with a pickle. My soda choice matched perfectly and that, my friends, is how you get a show with your meal. Go to a vibrantly busy business and watch the mishmash of people buzz about. Not bad for review 3,300!
