Really nice sandwich at a great price. One of my favorite places in The skyway. Long lines and I wish the building was in a bit better shape but I am happy we have this! read more

Good rock-solid place to get a sammitch (as we Pittsburghers call 'em). Dagwood's is a Blondie (the comic strip, not the band) themed place, based of course on her husband. They have quite a large menu and I've tried both the Pastrami Deli and the Turkey Breast Dagwood. You can order them anyway you want, and you can ask anybody that I likes my sammitches and I loves 'em piled high. read more

I was kind of excited to try Dagwood's for the first time, sadly their Breakfast sandwiches are not to satisfying. The biscuit is a mediocre resemblance of what a breakfast sandwich should look like, if you're desperate, spend a little extra and go with the croissant. However the egg also does not meet the standards of what breakfast should be. read more

Holy smokes! The literal definition of a hole in the wall amazing place. Went here right after we got off the plane because my kid loves ham sandwiches and found an unassuming nice little counter service place that I STILL find myself craving now. The sandwiches are just delicious. It's worth the stop. read more

Great lunch spot in the Skyway system. Even better prices for solid food. The employees are always warm and kind.

Dagwood's is my favorite place in the skyway!! My go-to is the turkey club- they are very quick and friendly. My favorite part about hybrid work is the days I get to stop by Dagwood's for lunch read more

I've seen dagwoods recommended on quite a few pages so I made my way in when i had a weekday downtown. It is good, but not outstanding. Friendly counter staff. Quick enough. I just expect a lot out of an Italian sandwich and I've had better. But it's worth a stop read more

Dagwood's - a sandwich and chips - Sandwiches Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Great value, high quality, and their chips are satisfyingly crunchy! Some of the friendliest staff in the skyway, too.

Have walked past the location but never went in, but I have door dashed this sandwich so many times, it is always hot and the chips are always delicious, service is always great and always sends extra napkins with! And I love the red checkered paper it makes the to go containers so bright and inviting :) I will always be back read more

Great sandwich and excellent, speedy service. Highly recommend for a quick sandwich... a little difficult to find in the office building, just follow the crowds coming out with to go bags! read more

For those that don't know about Dagwood's, they should certainly check it out if they like hot sandwiches with bulk chips. It's a no-frills, reasonably priced quality lunch (and breakfast) option in the skyway that also serves Italian (pastas) and the service is good and pretty fast for the lunch crowd. I was first introduced to Dagwood's several years ago (not going to date myself) but it's tucked away in the skyway in the Crossings building near Washington Avenue. Not a bad walk during the summer time but at least on a cold day you can still get there without freezing. There are a number of toasted (hot) sandwich options including the Dagwood Special, which has pastrami, ham, and salami topped with cheese, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, mayo and the special (Italian) dressing. The menu also has turkey, veggie, roast beef, tuna and ham and all sandwiches come with (bulk) potato chips or a side salad. For $6.99 (pretax), the price is right and it's worth the walk, plus you get to burn off half of the calories on your walk back to work. I haven't tried the pastas or hot Italian sandwiches - one day soon if I need to carb load. Dagwood's also serves inexpensive breakfast sammies - nothing special but again for about $3, it's hard to beat downtown. read more

Great food comes along with great service!! The service is fast and polite and the food speaks for itself. One of the best sandwiches I've had in Minneapolis no questions... read more

I used Dagwood's for a corporate event and they did not disappoint. Plenty of utensils and everything was plentiful and well marked. Wish they had one in Denver. Will use again for my onsite meetings in Minneapolis. read more

Just back in town for a day and had to run over to my favorite Mpls sandwich shop. Best in town and best kept secret in town. I think the location keeps the crowds away, but that is very much in your favor as a savvy sandwich hunter (here's a tip, if you don't want to navigate that crazy skyway system, just go to the food court second floor of the "Crossings" building on 2nd). I was just in Miami and tried as many of the famous cubanos and medianoches as I could find around Little Havana (in my unrestrained hedonism I took no notes and will leave no reviews - it was pure sandwich gestalt therapy), I want to put forward a theory that the Dagwood's Special is like Minneapolis' own Cuban...wait, wait, wait...hear me out...Ok? As with that legendary sandwich, bread and cheese are perfectly toasted and the meats receive just a little oven heat to activate all the yummy flavor components. No mustard or pickles, but the dressing is perfectly consistently slathered in good proportion throughout. Iceberg lettuce (shredded) and tomato are as Minnesota a combination as there exists under the sun, both lend a good crunch but also become a single glorious layer of goodness as they fuse with the tangy dressing and are held in by the bread. Meats are high quality and generous - maybe even a little too generous for your waistline. Ok Ok, not a perfect analogy, perhaps, but Minneapolis should be proud to have this simple but awesome hometown original as its welterweight champion to send into the ring. For best results, get the sandwich for here (eat in), so you can get it fresh and hot and enjoy the posthumous chips covered with drippings of dressing. One last thing to note - I've been eating here since the mid-2000s and this sandwich has also been steadily getting better and better over the last ten years as the owners have started making their bread in-house and expanding their menu - so take older reviews with a grain of salt. read more

Dagwood's - The Dagwood Special - a masterpiece of simplicity and amazingness, like every great sandwich should be - Sandwiches Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

If you can find this place, worth a stop if your looking for a good deli sandwich. Good size sandwiches. My favorite part was the Italian dressing in the sammy. It's inside an office building. When you get in, take the stairs up. It's in a quiet food court. read more

Great sandwich. I ate the Dagwood special two days in a row during a recent visit to MN. Fast, delicious, and the people working there seem to care. read more

OMG, Dagwood's was actually superb. They are much cheaper than the competition. Pretty much every item that we have ordered was super fresh and tasty. All of the staff are extremely friendly - you certainly feel welcome and looked after. To sum it up, I really liked Dagwood's. read more

This place is in a really oddball part of the skyway. I've eaten here a few times, and I haven't been back much because the sandwiches are really tiny. They definitely don't do justice to their namesake sandwiches, which are like two feet tall. The real problem here is that the food is overpriced. I recently tried them again and the sandwich is tasty: toasted bun, nice amount of fixings, oil and mayo type deal. I'm not sure if there really is any secret sauce. I got the turkey dagwood and a medium soda and my total was $8.90. Really, Dagwood's? The chips they throw in there are of a standard variety and probably only cost them a few pennies per order. The sandwich was good, but it's too small to be very filling. If I'm going to blow $7+ on a sandwich, I want it to fill me up for real. I really want to like this place, but I'm afraid I will go on being offended by their prices. They also have the audacity to place a tip jar on the counter, which is another slap in the face. You could easily make these sandwiches at home if you were so inspired. The sammies here are good, but they nickel and dime you big time. read more

Good food, especially for a hearty appetite, even with just half a sandwich. What I liked about my Dagwoods special was they it seemed to be really stuffed with 3 different style deli meats and having a lot of lettuce to go with it. I really want their food again, especially a whole sandwich next time. Maybe even an egg salad sandwich. read more

HOLY SMOKIES. This place is good. I don't know how I had worked in a building connected to the skyway 2 blocks down from Dagwoods for 7 MONTHS before visiting this place. My manager finally convinced me to try a sub and boy I could just kiss him! Although I probably shouldn't because A.) He doesn't swing that way and B.) The whole HR thing. Womp whaaaa! I tried the Dagwoods Special sub and let me tell you - HEAVEN! If you've ever had a hot assorted hoagie from Davannis (my fav) then you HAVE to get this - - the flavor profile is nearly identical but it's even better with the melted cheese and just an ever so slightly toasted and fluffy hoagie bun. SO good. Don't substitute anything - get it exactly how it comes or don't get it at all! I think the whole sub with the potato chips it comes with set me back about $7.74 out the door but man, I would pay that every day. YUM. You can also substitute the potato chips for a side salad (no add'l charge) but I would stick with the chips unless you know, you're one of those people. The salad is alright but nothing special: iceberg lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded white cheese, thinly slice white onion, and a vinaigrette. Also, make sure you give yourself time to eat your sandwich immediately. You want this baby when it's warm and still perfectly toasty- - don't let it get cold or you'll be a little sad. And you'll lose that delicate toast. Update: I tried their breakfast sandwiches. I TRIED THEIR BREAKFAST SANDWICHES. So cheap. Much good. $3.00 for an egg/cheese croissant sandwich (bacon, ham, or sausage) $2.50 for an egg/cheese bagel sandwich (bacon, ham, or sausage) The bacon egg and cheese croissant was DELICIOUS and big. For $3.00?! What the what? I might come here everyday. I got a sausage croissant as well but I am putting it in the fridge for lunch - $3 lunch? Don't mind if I do! My heart is full! (Maybe it's my arteries...) read more

Dagwood's you are really outstanding, I had a lovely experience here yesterday. I love their ambience. Every single thing is yummy. Delightful afternoon and the staff is fabulous! Look forward to coming back to Dagwood's. read more

A great place with excellent service and amazing lunch! I really appreciate that you can order ahead for pick up.

This is a great place for both breakfast and lunch. A simple breakfast menu with just a few sandwich options to choose from but a very large lunch menu of sandwiches, pastas, salads, and more. The wait time can be a bit longer than other places in the skyway that have things pre-made. read more

Best sandwiches in the Twin Cities. Seriously. Been visiting this place for over 20 years. My visits have been less frequent since I don't make it downtown too often anymore, but I still make sure I visit when downtown. When I worked downtown I ate at Dagwood's at least once week, almost without fail. I love pretty much everything about these sandwiches. Even the chips. First, the sandwiches are made with a tasty combination of bread, meat, cheese, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, mayonaise, and oil. I've had the ham, turkey, roast beef, the special, ... I've probably had them all. I don't think the tuna works as well as the other options, but my daughter likes the tuna so that means something. The cheese is melted on the meat and served on a toasted roll. Everything comes together so nicely that it is hard to single out any one aspect that makes the sandwich superior to other sandwiches I have tasted. To be fully appreciated, one must understand the ritual of eating a Dagwood. The sandwich is served alongside a pile of ridged chips, which are integral to the enjoyment of the sandwich. The veteran sandwich patron spreads the chips out into a bed on the plate (or in the container) and hunches over the chips while eating the sandwich. This allows the oil and mayonaise mixture to drip on the chips from the sandwich while eating. The ridged chips seem to catch the goodness and when a layer of chips has been seasoned sufficiently, they should be eaten so that another layer can be blessed with more sandwich drippings. Dagwood's seems to have figured out the right proportion of chips to sandwich; I always end up with only a couple chips remaining once I am done with the sandwich. The symmetry of sandwich vs. chips is almost spiritual for me. Dagwood's also serves salads. They have salads that correspond with their sandwiches in terms of toppings (ham, turkey, tuna, etc.). I went through a salad phase for a while, but I look back on those days with regret. I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with the salads, but the sandwiches are so good that I can't believe I allowed myself to avoid them when I had a chance. Finally, Dagwood's takes great care to make sure that they deliver a quality hand-mixed cherry coke experience. There was a time years ago when they took cherry coke off the menu becasuse Pepsi had stopped distributing the Wild Cherry syrup that they used. Cherry cokes did not return to the menu until they were able to secure a reliable supply again. It was worth the wait. This place is open for only a short time during the day Monday-Friday to serve the lunchtime crowd. There is often a line, but it is well worth the wait. read more

Went there for pasta. The chicken alfredo was very filling and very good (nice combo of broccoli, slivered carrots, and chunks of white chicken with noodles and alfredo sauce). Also served with the meal are two large slices of bread with butter pads. I ate all of the pasta, and one piece of bread, but next time I'll get it to go so I don't think I have to finish the entire serving! (Yes, I grew up in a household where I had to eat everything on my plate.) The staff is very courteous and friendly. I hadn't been there in a while, but I'll definitely add it to my weekday lunch places. Their beverages are Coke products, but (HURRAY) there is Coke Zero!! read more

Love the food and the prices! Breakfast is amazing and affordable and the pasta is amazing as well! Very friendly staff!

Dagwood's sandwiches are good but nothing special. They're a solid option on the far end of the skyway system. A word of caution, they offer online ordering from their site but they don't check it so don't bother. You'll end up waiting in line just as long. read more

I have eaten here several times as I work nearby and the line is usually shorter than the other restaurants in the food court. Turns out there's a reason for that. The sandwiches are okay, nothing to write home about, but the price for them is far higher than they are worth. You will get a much better sandwich across the hall at the deli for the same price. Don't even bother with the Italian menu. Their garlic cheese bread was barely toasted and dry. If they can't even toast bread, they can't cook pasta properly. Additionally, they claim that they deliver, but they won't. I called up to see if they would deliver a breakfast order for me and a couple team mates. The lady who answered hesitated when I asked for delivery. Wanted to know where and how many orders. I guess 3 people in a building next door wasn't a good enough order for them to deliver. Save your money and go to another provider in the food court. read more

Amazing sandwich. Employees there take pride in what they do. Fresh baked bread, house-made soups, and really inexpensive for the quality.

Sometimes its so simple. Make a sandwich do it right and be consistent. That's what Dagwood's does. The skyway is filled with lots of places that don't get it right. But Dagwood's always does. read more

I've been coming here for 20 years and it's still my favorite sandwich place in downtown Minneapolis. It's been owned by the same folks and they continue to make 'em exactly the same way. Everything made to order. Yummy hoagie rolls warmed up and cheese melted under the broiler combined with the shredded lettuce, tomato, onion, a pile o' meat and special sauce. Yummmm. And a big heapin' helping of Old Dutch chips (the ones with the narrow ridges that only come by the bag). I can't go more than a few weeks without getting one. The best! read more

My favorite spot for a salad or a sandwich. The salads aren't anything fancy but the dressing is to die for. This is usually my go to item but occasionally I will get a Turkey Dagwood Sandwich which just melts in my mouth. The cheese, mayo, and house dressing make a fabulous combination! My husband always gets the Dagwood Special and is never disappointed. read more

Pretty good sandwiches. This place reminds me a lot of Davannis hoagies, except I like Davannis a lot more. Wait can be pretty bad during rush. read more

I had a dagwood special and really loved the taste of hard Salami :) I am going to be there again. They are fast and the chips were good too. Narrow seating space but I think thats the case for all places! I will update more after trying out other sandwiches here! read more

These owners/staff go above and beyond for their customers! Food is great too, but they are just so sweet and quick. I love having this place nearby. read more

I stopped in for lunch, based on what a co-worker had said. Ordering was easy, and service was friendly. I ordered the Dagwood Special. When I got my tray of sandwhich, chips, and pop - I thought the sandwhich was very small. I have a sandwhich test, if I pick up a sandwhich, and it DRIPS juice or sauce - I know I am probably going to enjoy it....and this was no exception. The bun was lightly toasted, and the combination of meats, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and whatever sauce they used - was superb! I will go back!!!! read more

I loved the veggie sandwich here. I absolutely loved it. Being a veggie I am a quite picky person on how my sandwich should be like and the first time I tried this cause it's right next to my Office and I loved it. Haven't really thought that I can find such a light delicious sandwich. I am going to make it my daily lunch spot. read more

What can I say? Sometimes in life, what you really want is a soft sandwich. I am talking about pillowy bread that gives way to iceberg lettuce and mayonnaise and some kind of cold cut. If that sounds lame to you, then well... you have never experienced a yummy soft sandwich. Sometimes, all that toasting and the rustic bread and the weird toppings can get to be a little much (not to mention that the roof of my mouth just wants some relief from tiny, sharp bread shards). A lot of people in my office are huge fans of Dagwoods and considering that yesterday was a balmy -40, I thought today is for sure a soft sandwich kind of day. We have a system worked out where we order and then one of us drives and the other hops out to get the sandwich so no one has to park (very Bonnie and Clyde... not really, but you get the point). I got the roast beef sandwich. The sandwich was exactly what I wanted. It was a no frills, yummy soft sandwich. No interesting ingredients here. We are talking about shredded iceberg lettuce, tomato, mayo, roast beef and their special house dressing - that's about it. Which was just fine with me. The sandwich also comes with a generous helping of super salty chips. And if you are in the know, you know the best thing to do is to put a healthy scoop of those chips IN your sandwich for maximum carnage. Overall, I would happily go back! My only small complaint is that after eating Clancys roast beef, I really don't think there is anywhere that could come close to that quality? But, aside from that, the sandwich was really good! When you just need something good, tasty and no frills - then this is the soft sandwich spot for you! read more

I agree with the previous comment. This is not an original Dagwood sandwich, but it used to be long ago when they first opened. Slowly the sandwich started getting smaller and smaller and the prices getting higher and higher. The food is good, but I can get more for my money downtown at lunch time at a number of places. read more
