    Best Sandwich in Austin!! Worth going to, you get a quality meal from a super friendly staff. 100/10 recommend

    Italian sandwich

    Didn't know what to eat, and wanted something light, was recommended this place. The service was amazing, the guy recommended the Italian sandwich, it came with two sauces on the side and the spicy one was so good I bought a jar. Great service, great food. A good place to stop and get some grub!

    Stopping in here for a sammich; sure glad I did!! The Italian panini is so freakin good! The young man whose parents own the place was working in there with his sister. He told me his story about why they opened up. So inspiring! And such a sweet guy! The whole staff was awesome! I don't live in Austin and I've been craving another!! The bread looked hard but was perfect! A few tables inside and more on a patio out front. Wish there was one of these in DFW.

    Meatball

    First time trying this spot, and I'll be back. They stay away from seeds oil (which is a huge plus!!) The sandwiches are delicious!!! We tried the meatball this time, that was a 10/10. You can also add to the sandwiches.. so feel free to get creative when your ordering :)

    Porchetta sandwich
    Eric G.

    I've been meaning to try this place so placed an order online and got it within 15-20 min. Maybe I was hyping it up, but while I liked the porchetta sandwich, I'm not sure I'd go out of my way for it. That said, I think it'd make a good lunch spot if you're already downtown and craving a sandwich! The grilled cheese was good too. Prices a bit high, but it is downtown so somewhat expected.

    I thought Meat & Bread was fantastic! I arrived at 11am, just as it was about to open. The friendly servers mentioned that they were finishing up baking the bread, which was like music to my ears. I stood in front of the counter and watched the cook chop the meat (I believe for the Porchetta sandwich) as pieces of pork sprayed about. It looked unbelievably delicious. What I love about Austin is that great food is ingrained in the culture. It was a tough choice, but I opted for the Italian Panino sandwich because I was in the mood for deli meat and also got the kale caesar. They packed it for me and I took off on my bike rental headed for any park bench I could find. It was a very hot late June day in Austin - I thought even hotter than where I live in south Florida. As a visiter to Austin, I relied on Yelp to pick Meat & Bread for lunch - once again Yelp helped steer me in the right direction.

    Service is absolutely above and beyond This establishment does a concerted effort to make sure of that. What they make is phenomenal.

    Mya ..

    We enjoyed this meal. Would recommend to others for a good sandwich downtown. Side note: Owners reply to the 5 to 1 star review is off putting, yelp reviews are meant to be useful and informative to businesses on how they can do better, would recommend staying open to customer input. Other than seeing that review reply, I was pleased with this place.

    Meatball sandwich
    Lauren B.

    The food was great, I had the meatball sandwich and it was warm, filling, and hearty. They were out of the aoli it came with but offered a basil one instead which offered a unique flavor to the sandwich. The bread was probably my favorite part, fresh, crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside, and delicious. This is a great quick service place for lunch. It's nothing fancy inside but it had a decent amount of seating and they were fast and friendly with their service. I do wish there was a large selection on the menu but overall I would recommend.

    Buffalo Chicken Sandwich
    Wilson L.

    I couldn't decide between the buffalo chicken or meatball... so I got both! The sandwiches itself were good, easy recommend with the meatball sub having a slight edge. I believe there are breadcrumbs inside the sandwich so you get a double crunch. What really elevates Meat & Bread is the sambal and mustard that's served along side each sandwich. Doesn't taste like anything I've had before but really makes a difference

    Porchetta
    Keeley ..

    Prompt service and recommendation for the Porchetta sandwich which was very enjoyable! Would definitely come again. Stayed here and worked for a few hours as well. Relaxed and not too busy mid afternoon!

    Porchetta Sandwich
    Jesus P.

    This has to be one of my favorite sandwiches I've ever had! I got the Porchetta Sandwich and it was crafted so beautifully! This ranks right next to NYC's Salt Hank in my book! Team was very proud to be working as a unit, loved it!

    The porchetta looked incredible.
    Brittany E.

    After hearing only good things about Meat and Bread, myself and some friends decided to give it a try for a week day lunch. It's a cute little spot on the 1st floor of the 360 Condos with both indoor and outdoor seating. Offering order ahead and counter service, the line moves quickly. The employees were incredibly friendly and helpful as we asked some questions about the menu. We got the Porchetta, Buffalo Chicken, and Eggplant Parm sandwiches along with a side of the Calabrian Chili Aioli. They're known for their Porchetta and we see why. That sandwich was phenomenal in both texture and flavor. The Buffalo Chicken was a good mix of spicy and tasty. The Eggplant Parm was very good as well and had a great ratio of tomato to cheese to herbs. I look forward to coming back and trying the Meatball sandwich and more.

    Rotisserie chicken with potatoes and bread + butter, what's not to like? Well, if your menu is…read moresimple and some of the items aren't cooked/baked that well, then it's going to be a letdown. Normally, I wouldn't ever order from a restaurant like this since none of the menu items satisfy a craving of mine, but I had a friend in town who was craving just this. Rotisserie Chicken (3/5) - sure it comes with some pretty tasty sauces (chipotle and salsa verde), but the chicken itself was actually quite dry. I'm sure it's juicier on most days, but this time the chicken was quite dry, even the dark meat portions. Baby Potatoes (4.5/5) - These were pretty flavorful and the roti sauce was a nice addition. But this style of roasted potato is probably on the lower tier of potato forms. So even though these were well done, it's not my favorite form of potato. Baguette with Butter (3/5) - The baguette wasn't really baked well. I got two of them and the outside was a bit too tough (slightly crunchy,but mostly on the hard side). I expected something crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, but the toughness of the crust made it difficult to enjoy the fluffier interior. Arugula salad (4/5) - Solid arugula salad. Nothing special about it but I needed some veggies and acidity for balance. Overall, kind of a disappointing experience.

    I'll occasionally order this for lunch and it's delicious and the sandwich is the perfect lunch…read moreside. The chicken is extremely moist and flavorful. They add goat cheese and arugula on the sandwich as well which adds extra flavor. There is also a dressing you can get, I like to ask for it on the side so I can dip it there. The potato's are excellent as well but would prefer to have them a little bit more crispy. It's fast service - not a sit down restaurant. Would recommend for a delicious lunch order that's fast and easy.

    It's not a gimmick if they have good food…read more Handsome Dan's has been on my list to try for months, but I've been on a keto diet most of the time, so a bunch of restaurants have been put on a "someday" list. Last week I was on a break from keto, and my husband read my mind. He took me here as the first stop on a rainy Friday night date. I know they have good sandwiches, but they also have their "bait shop" schtick. They're not near any significant fishing spots, and I didn't see any evidence of bait, but whatever. Their sandwiches are good, so they can get away with it. While I ate my sandwich on the patio, we discussed the novelty nature of many Austin businesses, and which ones can hold up and which ones are pure hype. I ordered the Club sandwich. It's not a true triple-decker club, but it was the sandwich that had the best variety of fillings in my opinion. Everything you'd expect in a classic club, but easier to eat because it wasn't stacked absurdly tall like other clubs. The sourdough bread was very crispy, and the meats, cheese, and vegetables worked well inside. On the side I got potato salad which I like more than their other option, which was chips, but the potato salad wasn't anything special. Their patio was the perfect spot to enjoy a rainstorm. They have some glider chairs off to the side that are good for lounging on, but when it really started to rain we moved in to the center of the patio. I'm glad I got a chance to try Handsome Dan's. I doubt I'll be back anytime soon because huge sandwiches like this need to be an occasional treat for me, but if you're in the Springdale area looking for a satisfying meal, this is it!

    Handsome Dans was on our list because of all the online and social media hype. It's tucked away in…read morethe back next to Stargazer in a brewery/ warehouse off Springdale and Airport area. The parking is shared and gets packed in the evening or you have to pay to park if you are unable to find anything in the lot or on the street. Handsome Dans has a sign directing you to the back where they are located. The vibe is true to a bait shop/diner it's casual with a rustic feel, they have a large covered patio adjacent to Stargazer bar. I highly suggest sitting outside if possible because the inside does get a bit claustrophobic and smokey when it's packed and they are smashing paninis on the press with no proper kitchen overhead vents. The type of greasy smoke you get when you are making super buttery sandwiches on a hot press. The sandwiches are ok but not something I would go out of my way to have ,our kids liked the hotdogs and Frito pies which were also kind of "upper class" gas station quality. Most of the stuff here is food that probably tastes way better after drinking several beers. It's like any normal sandwich you could make at home and toss in a panini press to be honest. Really good beers on tap and friendly staff who seemed to disappear to the back quite a bit and came back confused. They didn't know if they had already given me my food because I was ordering and paying for extra food after more people in our party arrived. They literally saw my food I already had on the table from my previous order and thought they gave me double of what I ordered hahaha. I can't make a judgment because I have no clue what they kept dispersing to the back for but can just say the confusion was real, LOL. All together if I had to come back it be because someone I knew wanted to try it. Otherwise for me it's a one and done. I got the pictures I stood next to a sign ,I had the Signiture sandwiches, now I'm moving on. I can say I've been there done that. I'm guessing that a college crowd or just being a single person who just wants to be amongst people that this is the type of lowkey place to go if you're not into the typical Longhorn hangouts. You stop in ,have some beers, eat a low budget ingredient expensive panini sandwich and chill till you have to call yourself a Waymo cause the beer is good and strong.
