It's easy to miss Bolands Sandwich Bar because of its location on Duke Lane…read more But people should seek this place out. It provides the simple service of sandwiches, pretty run of the mill sandwiches at that. But they are fast and the sandwiches are extremely great value. Today I got a chicken and stuffing on white, which was pre-made and ready to go from their fridge. In and out super quick. It wasn't a gourmet or artisan sandwich, but for what it was it was pretty good. I really enjoyed it too. The best part, it cost 2.80 EUR. But the standard was much higher than than the price suggests. They also have a counter down the back where you can have your sandwich made to your own liking. Highly recommended.

With just a few small tables and chairs outside, the standing room only interior is a picture of economy. These were my first impressions as customers steadily streamed inside to place orders and then leave to wait for their sandwich or sit a bit. My eyes locked into the pastrami melt sandwich on the menu and I waited my turn, albeit a bit nervously, to place my order with one of the three gents who were slinging the sandwiches. All the ingredients in the deli case looked fresh, from the lettuce, meats, cheese, etc, to the types of bead on top of the case, like the focaccia. Each sandwich is made fresh, and once assembled, is pressed to warm the roll and melt the cheese. My pastrami melt arrived loaded with the meat, and all the ingredients enhanced by the deli mustard made for a great tasting sandwich. It's probably the best pastrami sandwich I've tasted in a long while. Every employee was patient and helpful, and I found this to be quite an effort since customers kept placing orders without much of a break. The Pig & Heifer is definitely worth a repeat visit.

We enjoyed this place so much we went twice (which we try not to do) during our Ireland road trip! Tried the onion and the potato savory pastries and they were perfect!

I'd eat that sandwich every DAY if I could. The bread had great texture, the ingredients were fresh, the flavors were all over and it was a symphony in a sandwich. Writing this review has me salivating just thinking about it. If we ever make our way back to Dublin, hitting this place up for a sandwich no matter what.

The eggs were light and fluffy, the cheese was soft and smoky, and the sourdough bread was chewy but also toasty. The sandwich was quite big. I wasn't sure I would finish it, but quickly did after the first bite. The hours at this cafe are variable. They do not have a website listing the hours, and Google and Yelp cannot consistently keep up with their hours as they change on a whim. Currently, the hours listed on their board says Monday-Friday 8:30AM-3:00PM, but it was not open this past Monday when I walked by. They serve breakfast from 8:30AM-10:30AM and lunch 12PM-3:00PM. It's probably best to call first to see if they are open. Hope this helps!

Now they want to come talk to us! I asked if this seat was ok and got the reply "I guess it will have to be as you already sat down". Should have got up then but the wife was tired so decided to stay. It was crazy warm in there with little air flow. I liked the atmosphere and ambience. Guess they wanted to make a point as we sat there for 15 mins without water or anybody coming by. Had to flag down what appeared to be a bus boy to get water. Finally had order taken by male bus boy who seemed he wanted to be anywhere else and said "I am waiting". We ordered two "specials" and the bœuf bourguignon. Two separate couples came in and were served before we received our food. So hard to eat as it was 80-85 degrees in there. The beef was good and would recommend. The two specials were chicken and very very dry. To wrap it up we had to hunt down the wait staff to get the ticket as they actively avoided eye contact. Fairly expensive for just ok food and horrible service. Customer service is not hard. A "Welcome" or "Glad you came in" goes a long way.
