We arrived in town too early to check in to our motel. We decided to check out the food options close by. My hubby and I wanted sandwiches. We landed on a great choice! City Sandwich has plenty of indoor seating. Local owned small business. It was almost closing time and only one person making food. They let us know a head that it may be a lil bit of a wait but that was ok, we had no clue what we wanted. I chose the #16 turkey and provolone sammy. My husband wanted the #15 but they ran out of ham. It was the end of the day, end of week. When I say this is the best sammy we have ate. The turkey was fresh, tasted so flavorful and clean. The sourdough bread was fresh and the portions were so big! They put extra meat on because they had no ham and didn't want to waste their meat as it was the end of day, like I mentioned previously. Delicious snickerdoodle cookie for dessert. Price was decent and the ambiance was chill. read more

A little gem tucked into downtown Vancouver, WA. The prices may seem high, but you're getting a bargain. They pile on the meat. As well as friendly customer service. You get your moneys worth! Oh, and come early because they receive a lot of catering orders and typically run out of bread. read more

City Sandwich - Pastrami on rye. Sooooo good. - New American Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

I was in here a few weeks ago and I gotta say I had a great experience. Service was fantastic right from the start. The juice was fresh and the sandwich was unbelievable. Real deal. You take a bite and you can tell they know what they're doing in that kitchen. The atmosphere in there was perfect too. Nice and relaxed, not too loud, not too crazy. I was able to sit down and study for a few hours and nobody rushed me or gave me a hard time. Just a good comfortable place to hang out for a bit. The guy who took my order was a tall guy with a mustache and he was great. Friendly, quick, and just ran things the right way. The kind of guy who makes you feel like a regular even if it's your first time in. Overall I had a great time. Good food, great service, and a really nice vibe. When a place does things right like that you come back. Simple as that. read more

First time experiencing City Sandwich. Looks like I've discovered my "Go To". Sandwich spot. I'm a big fan of Turkey, cranberry and cream cheese and City Sandwich delivered big time. Everything was so fresh and the sandwich was huge. Service at the front counter was personable and efficient. read more

Need a sandwich you could make at home? If so then you are home. I travel for work and don't have the option but today I was feeling a sammich. City Sandwich looks to be a mom & pop local favorite as there were a few customers coming through but not a normal lunch crowd for a downtown business area. Staff was nice, sandwich was made to order and in about 5 minutes. Here's my three things. 1) Basic menu with most sandwiches being ones you could make at home. 4 bread options and they have some additional sides other than chips. Couple of specials help brighten the menu. 2) Location is great and not crowded so easy to get a sammich. This is a sandwich shop and not a deli. Yes, there is a difference. 3) If you like the hits ( aka the pop music of sandwiches) then you are home. read more

City Sandwich Company sandwiches are awesome. Being a huge fan of New York pastrami and corned beef sandwiches, I thoroughly enjoy City Sandwich Company sandwiches. I typically order the #9 (Pastrami, Onion, Mustard and Provolone on Rye bread). It's fabulous. She is generous with the meat and the bread is soft and delicious. Great place for lunch, or whenever you want fantastic sandwich. You can dine in or take-out. Plenty of street parking. You may have to pay for parking during business hours. read more

I have been here a couple of times, and there is a reason why. The sandwiches are some of the best you can find in the metro area in my opinion. This is a small space, but it's decorated really neat. They have a pretty large menu, but are famous for their egg salad I am told, I will get that next time. I came in for a pastrami sandwich but had my dreams crushed when she told me they were out! I went with a turkey and ham on sourdough, and let me tell you... they stack these sandwiches! I could hardly fit it in my mouth! The ingredients are fresh, the bread is fresh, and the quality is just exceptional. I had a cup of chicken wild rice soup to go with it and the soup was so good as well! If you're in the area you gotta stop in! read more

This place was great. Very traditional sandwich shop. The bread was fantastic. So fresh. We got wheat and sourdough and both had the same reaction. Excited to come back read more

I would recommend this business but with a caveat; Make sure you put an hour and a half on Parking Kitty before walking in to place your order. Although the sandwich is excellent (there is enough to split between two people) the ordering system and logistics seem flawed. Both times we have been there there were shortages of selections on the menu i.e. no sourdough bread, or, on one occasion, we were there just as the street was being torn up and the shop was out of provisions as the delivery truck couldn't find a place to park. This indicates a shoe-string operation without a lot of capital behind it. Will we go there again? Yes, as the sandwiches are terrific and we would like to try the soup and it's a true neighborhood deli type sandwich shop. read more

Went to City Sandwich for a lunch meeting and was stunned by how busy the place was for a Monday at noon in Vancouver. They could have benefited from a revolving door there were so many people coming and going! That said, I'm unsure what the hype is about. It's fine food, but nothing special enough to draw that kind of crowd. Staff interaction was awkward from the get-go. First, I approached the counter and was told to wait a moment until the cashier was finished writing the previous ticket. No problem. Before the first person could finish their work, someone else came to take my order. I asked for a basic sandwich from their menu on sourdough. Those basic details were quickly forgotten. The staffer tried repeating my order to me three times and got it wrong each time. Finally, a cook told the front of house staff to forget it because the kitchen heard my order and was already make it. The food was fresh but expensive. I had the #5 Italy just by itself and the total was more than $14 plus tip. My friend only ate half of his sandwich and they wrapped the rest for him in a to-go wrapper. Better than a box in my mind. Sitting down to eat, the tables were old and had major wobbles to them. The ones that didn't wobble had wads of napkins jammed under their feet. Not the best dining experience. Also - I don't know the story behind it - but there's a big mirror and a mannequin on one wall and a mural of the Twin Towers on the other wall? No idea what that's about. read more

When I searched for "sandwiches" in Vancouver, City Sandwich came out on top. After reading the Yelp reviews, I knew in advance that I wanted to order an egg salad sandwich. I followed the Yelp directions and headed out for this storefront well before noon -- City Sandwich was known to run out of egg salad at times. I was able to park nearby at a meter, even though I didn't have any quarters in my pocket; some previous parker had left plenty of time for me to shop. It's curious: I didn't see the place right away because I was looking for something less modest. When I asked a nearby merchant where to find City Sandwich, I got a puzzled look -- "Near heard of it"! I did find City Sandwich after another 45 seconds of exploration. I asked for an egg salad sandwich on rye to go. They weren't out of egg salad, but they were out of rye. Accordingly, I took home a sandwich on wheat bread. And, how was the sandwich? Well, the Yelpers were right: it was really good. It would never have occurred to me to make an egg salad sandwich with a slice of American cheese in the middle, but actually the combination was fine. I wouldn't make a big detour to come back, but City Sandwich is worth at least a small detour. If you're driving, remember to bring some quarters. read more

Great Sandwiches and I love the sour dough bread but it costs a small fortune to eat lunch....$24.00 for a sandwich, chips, cookie and drink. Also, the place is so very busy for the lunch hour so the wait is 15-20 minutes for take out. Note for owners: You all always seem stressed out during the lunch hour so maybe hire more help for the time of the day - just saying. read more

Everything about this little gem of a sandwich shop was great. All 3 of the sandwiches I ordered for my picnic were fabulous. The veggies crisp, the meat was fresh and piled on. The owner was wonderful, she happily chatted with me and treated my doggies while I waited for my order. Locals should not take this treasure for granted. Definitely a shop to continue visiting. read more

Great sandwiches and sides. Love finding these little places in the cities when I travel. City Sandwich is just a small shop right in the City Center area. Thick sourdough bread stuffed with turkey, bacon and guac was delish. Probably could have gotten away with just a 1/2 sandwich. read more

These sandwiches are so much better than your average sandwich shop. It is not often I report that a place I eat is busy these days, but City Sandwich was slammed. Numerous call in to go orders had them hopping. For good cause, fresh ingredients on great bread. If you order straight from the menu, you miss out on much of the experience (bread, meat, cheese, mayo, and lettuce) but the menu has other spreads and vegetables as toppings. I ordered the Number 1 and would do it again. read more

great sandwich place! Stopped in on a whim as I was hungry and wanted to get a bite to eat before the movie showing just down the street. I ordered the break fast sandwich, #2 shortly past 1030 cut off. The lady was sweet and still accepted the order. Thanks! I Kept it simple with cheddar and white bread. my sandwich came out hot. It was perfect and now I'm full and could use a nap. Nice place. Clean. Street parking available. I'd come back next time I'm in the area! read more

Don't even eat there. Stood in line behind 2 people and I left after 10 minutes with no apparent ordering. No one working the register. All the soda options say "out". Tiny bags of chips and over priced sandwiches. Sorry Thought I'd try it but nope. read more

the only girl working was so busy but she was so sweet and efficient!! my sandwich was so good as well, definitely recommend and will also be back! the place is really cute and clean too! read more

I was really excited to try this palace because I had heard really good things online about it. We walked in at 1:30p on a Monday and the place had one other couple sitting there eating their meal. We got to the counter and an employee peaked her head out of the back and let us know they only had marble rye bread left. We were okay with that, so we waited at the for someone to come out and take our order for like 5 mins and the same employees yelled out to "give us 10 because we're busy making sandwiches for another order. At this point, it sounded like they didn't want or need our business, so we politely left. We were getting into our car about to leave when another employee who was in the back came out and asked us to come back in and they would help us. Honestly at that point, it was too little & too late. Headed to another local area and got a sandwich there. Even if you're busy, it only takes a few seconds to be personable, come out and let people know what's going on. read more

Excellent sandwiches! The meat and bread are really terrific. Never disappointed by their offerings!

One of the best sandwich shops in town. A little expensive, but the portions are very generous.

I had heard some buzz at the office about these Samiches, and a couple colleagues and myself headed over for lunch in downtown Vancouver. Found an open spot right in front with a meter ($1.25/hour). There are a few tables inside to eat, so we decided to eat-in. They have a box lunch (sandwich, chips, drink & potato chips) but I opted for just a sandwich. Good thing, because that was a large sandwich. Ordered the Tuna Salad on Wheat. Took a little longer than expected, but it was the lunch hour. Sandwich was excellent. Fresh multi-grain wheat bread and fresh ingredients. Its always a pleasant surprise when a place can deliver a sandwich right and City Sandwich delivers. Our office will definitely be back and I look forward to trying more of the menu. read more

Great sandwiches. Filling, good portion sizes and I like the bread they use, I think it's from a local bakery. Very friendly. Tuna salad tasted fresh and made in house, better than any chain sandwich place. read more

My husband works nearby and eats here often. I had a day off and he took me here. Very good. A lot of choices. I had the Italian. The only bad thing is they put so much on it, it's hard to keep everything between the bread. A half sandwich is very filling. read more

I've had several sandwiches from City Sandwich, and each one has been exceptional. The amount of meat and veggies they use on each sandwich is huge portion. I was wary of them not having the sub style sandwich but do not worry the bread is amazing and fresh. They are always very kind when ordering and will make changes as you need. It's not the cheapest sandwich but trust me worth every penny. read more

High ratings drew me in and one review, in particular, that raves about their egg salad sandwich. I was not at all disappointed as I agree this had to be one of the best I've had. In fact, I normally won't order an egg sandwich because other places have been terrible. It not here with a slice of cheddar cheese and lettuce on sourdough. Yum. Will come back because I want to try some other selections like their turkey with cranberries and cream cheese. 8/16: Since I was working in the area - I came back (twice) and not all disappointed with the fresh sandwiches. Excellent. Will keep coming back. read more
