Superb sandwiches and solid sides. Yep, that's the menu. But that's all they need! Of the sides, the soft pretzels and pimento cheese were worth it - a perfect pairing. I would get them again. The dill pickle potato salad was okay. But let's get to these sandwiches. Meaty, juicy goodness. The sandwich that I got was a special called the King of the Rodeo. Meatloaf, bacon, white cheddar, BBQ sauce, crispy fried onions and ranch on sourdough. OMG! Put this on your regular menu, Newfangled! My wife got the Joe Brrr, essentially a Turkey Reuben. Completely different from my sandwich but very good. No wonder everyone gives this place 5 stars. read more

This Sandwich Brought the Heat: My Visit to Newfangled Kitchen Some meals leave you full. Others leave you talking. And then there's the Lucifer's Hammer sandwich from Newfangled Kitchen in Bexley, Ohio--which left me sweating, smiling, and seriously considering a second round. I'd heard whispers about Newfangled Kitchen for a while. It's one of those word-of-mouth places--no gimmicks, no over-the-top Instagram vibes, just damn good sandwiches built with love (and a little madness). So when I finally found myself near Bexley, I knew I had to stop in. The moment you walk in, you get a sense of what this place is all about. The decor is no-frills but full of personality--warm wood tones, clever sandwich names chalked up on the wall, and a retro, diner-meets-neighborhood-joint kind of charm. It's small inside--cozy, really--with a few tables to snag if you're lucky. But if the weather's nice, the real move is to take your order out to one of the picnic tables just outside. There's something about spicy meatloaf and sunshine that just works. Now, about that sandwich. Lucifer's Hammer. Even the name dares you to underestimate it. We're talking a thick slab of meatloaf--juicy, savory, slightly crisp around the edges--stacked with fiery jalapeños, melted pepper jack cheese, lettuce, tomato, and smothered in their housemade diablo sauce. All that gets hugged by a soft, toasted bun. One bite in, and it's clear this isn't just a sandwich. It's a full-on assault (in the best way) on your tastebuds. The meatloaf is the real MVP here--comfort food leveled up. It's hearty, flavorful, and holds its own under the weight of the spice. The jalapeños bring the fire, but it's the diablo sauce that steals the show. Creamy, smoky, spicy--it lingers long after the last bite like a good movie scene you replay in your head. But Newfangled doesn't stop at one knockout. They've got a whole lineup of meatloaf-based magic. There's the "Newfangled"--their namesake sandwich, topped with bacon, cheddar, and a tangy barbecue aioli that brings the sweet-and-savory energy. Or the "Phil's Delight," which throws in fried onions and horseradish mayo for a punchier, richer flavor profile. If you want something a little less volcanic than Lucifer's Hammer but still packed with character, "The Fancy Pants" is a solid move--Swiss cheese, sautéed mushrooms, lettuce, tomato, and just enough zip to keep things interesting. And don't sleep on the sides. The mac & cheese is creamy and golden--exactly what you want riding shotgun next to your sandwich. The tater tots are crispy and nostalgic in the best way. And yes, they've got hand-cut fries too--salty, satisfying, and perfect for dipping into any sauce you "accidentally" save from your sandwich. Need something sweet to cool things down after Lucifer scorches your tastebuds? Enter the dessert menu. On my visit, there was a rotating selection of housemade brownies and cookies, and they were everything you hope they'd be--gooey, chocolatey, just-right indulgence that ties the meal together like a great movie ending. Newfangled Kitchen knows what it is: a sandwich shop with soul. No frills. No filler. Just really good food done really well. It's the kind of place where you feel like a regular even on your first visit, where the staff greets you with a smile and a knowing nod when you point to the hotter options on the board. If you ever find yourself anywhere near Bexley, do yourself a favor: stop in. Order the Lucifer's Hammer if you dare, but whatever you choose, bring your appetite. Grab a picnic table if the weather's kind, and take your time with it. Because sometimes, it's not just about the destination--or even the sandwich. Sometimes, you've just gotta take the trip. read more

We went for the first time today and it will not be our last. Food, service and value is excellent. Kind of a little hole in the wall place but very clean. I had the Fang which is an huge hit meatloaf sandwich which was absolutely incredible. The toppings were fresh and the Fang sauce was tremendous. The bun it came on was very good as well. My wife had a ham sandwich with lettuce and tomato on white bread. There was a generous portion of ham with fresh lettuce and tomato so she could only eat half of it. It was a solid sandwich. read more

Was in the mood for a sandwich and was following my traditionof trying new places while on the road for my daughter's softball tournaments. Found this place via yelp and did not disappoint. Cute little area and the packs a flavorful punch. I loved the vending machine that didn't stock food but rather books and other knickknacks. It was a nice touch. I got my daughter a basic turkey with mayo and lettuce and she loved it. And she's kind of particular about her sandwiches so that says a lot. Couldn't decide between two sandwiches so I bought them both. Figured I would have lunch the next day as well. I Did the Belle Donna which was basically a grilled vegetable sandwich which was delicious. Portobello mushrooms tasted amazing And everything and melted together perfectly. My turkey sandwich was basically a spicy version of a Turkey Reuben . Everything was fresh, the bread was amazing and I can see why this place has the reputation that it does. Everybody was very kind and service was quick as I did not order until I walked in. If I lived in Columbus, I would be a regular for sure. read more

Wow. All I can say is 5 stars on every level. Nicest people, beautiful day with street/front sidewalk seating, delicious sandwiches and drinks. This family run restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way. My mom is handicapped, so trying new places with her can be difficult. This establishment made us feel welcome and were accommodating in every way to her ADA needs. In addition, the bathroom was spotless! We ordered a rueben and tuna along with chips and potato salad. Everything was superb, but the Reuben was the star. We would like to return and try the meatloaf options and chicken salad and I wont be happy until I have that Reuben again. Also one thing that stuck out to me..the young man (son of the family) was working the register and he had the best customer service (rare these days!!). He was kind and patient and genuine in every way. Super impressed! Definitely a fan! read more

Everything went well! We stopped by for lunch after visiting a couple local estate sales. The service was friendly and fast. It was a simple ordering process with a board out front and a hand held menu as well. This is not a sit down restaurant, primarily takeout but there is some seating outside. It was a sunny day (yay!) in Ohio so we sat outside. Our two sandwiches were amazing. I had the Bella Donna and my husband had Lucifer's Hammer. We also had some of the dill potato salad as well as the Carolina Kettle chips. My sandwich was a grilled portobello with roasted red pepper and cheese. The fang sauce is wonderful and has a great flavor. The potato salad has just the right amount of dill and the chips were unique too as the were salt and balsamic vinegar. Overall very good place for a sandwich and we will return for more great options when we return to the area. read more

We weren't sure what to order as this was our first time here but we were all blown away with our choices. Lucifer's hammer, the tuna melt, the roast chicken sandwich... all with modifications and all made perfectly. Do you know how impossibly rare that is anymore?! The meatloaf sandwiches were huge and that tuna was on point. I am only saddened by the fact that I live over 2 hrs away from this establishment. Whenever I'm near Columbus again, I will be sure to visit. read more

Smaller shop than expected. No inside dining but there is a bench for waiting. I was there for the meatloaf. My wife had Mac and cjeese...I think. Fortunately the weather was nice enough we could sit outside. Parking is tough to find...you might need to do a bit of shopping at the market place close by so you can park in their lot read more

From the many Yelp reviews, I was probably thinking the restaurant was a bit different. My colleague and I went there for lunch. I had the Bella Donna which is a pepper, onion and mushroom sandwich with cheese and a special sauce. It was excellent. They appeal to a wide audience of sandwich and snack eaters as well as vegetarians or vegans. They serve beverages from a refrigerated cooler. Their staff works hard and is very friendly. We were able to find parking just outside the restaurant. It's mainly set up for pick-up or GrubHub/DoorDash. We wanted to eat in, but we could only eat outside at one of their 3 large picnic tables that can be shared with others. The cost was reasonable and certainly worth it based on the quality. read more

I've been here time ago you should try their great tasting fresh food atmospheres great ambiance is good staffs friendly helpful services are great their great for community read more

Big meaty unctuous meatloaf sandwiches. I tried the meatloaf Reuben and the L Hammer which were both pretty good. I like the speed of service and convenience of parking as you can park anywhere in Giant Eagles parking lot and just walk over. Both times I got meatloaf but next time I'd like to try their other offerings. This place is a nice change of pace from the other run of the mill chain sandwich making places in the vicinity. This spot makes quality sandwiches like Brown Bag Deli but much closer and more convenient. 4 stars for even the smaller bags of chips being almost HALF of the price of the sandwiches. Come on now, 75% of a bag of chips is JUST AIR anyways. I don't know if their bag of chips prices is because of "inflation" or what but they should also understand that folks can walk feet from their restaurant into Giant Eagle and get a cheaper bag of chips ‍.Also 4 stars for not offering any type of combos with chips and a drink. EVERYTHING is Ala CARTE. Outside of these few things I'll be back! read more

Best meatloaf sandwich in Columbus! Very thick and tasty. There's no eating inside but there's tables outside. Reasonably priced for such a large amount. read more

My friend and I loved our Fang sandwiches! Big slab of meatloaf with fresh and tasty additions. Also, the service was friendly and we got our food fast. Unfortunately, the only seating is outside and mostly not in the shade. There were three tables with only one was in the shade and that one was taken so we had to eat lunch under the blazing hot sun at noon time. I went back to my car for my sunglasses and sun hat but it was still uncomfortable. read more

I love this place. The sandwiches are large and delicious. The staff is friendly and the food is usually ready on time, if not early.

The Georgia Reuben is the best sandwich I've found in the Columbus area! Plentiful portion size, fresh ingredients, and the flavors are something special. The sandwich was also packaged with the utmost care. 10/10 recommend! Will definitely be ordering again. read more

My God was this good food! When we saw that they were ranked by Yelp as the best sandwich shop in Ohio, we knew we needed to go... STAT! The restaurant is run by a husband and wife duo. They were in the restaurant, cooking up the delicious food when we went. The guy behind the register was very friendly and helped with all the recommendations. They even brought our food out to us since we sat outside, it was such a beautiful day. Everything is very casual, but really fun 10 out of 10 would recommend!!! read more

Newfangled Kitchen - The Macho Man, featuring Price's Macho Mustard. - Salad Near Me - Bexley, Ohio

I got Newfangled for take-out after stumbling on it while looking for deli's in the area. Their website is extremely easy to navigate, and you can place an order for pick up right through the site, selecting "pay at the store" so you don't have to put a credit card down up front. I went with the 'Devil went down to Georgia' sandwich and a bag of balsamic vinegar chips. The sandwich comes with turkey, jalapenos, cole slaw, pepperjack cheese & diablo sauce rye bread. It was ready right when I got there, 10-15 minutes after the order was placed. The inside is quaint, but has limited seating. There are some picnic tables outside. The sandwich had a huge portion of deli meat, and the jalapenos gave it a nice kick. I wasn't able to taste the coleslaw, so it was probably either a very small portion or just overshadowed by the hefty amount of turkey. The diablo sauce was really good though. Side note, by the time I drove back to work to eat it (~10 minutes), the bread was a bit soggy, but if I would've eaten it right away that probably would not have been the case. Lastly, the balsamic vinegar chips were a bit disappointing. They were all vinegar with little to no balsamic flavor. The chips are from a company called "Carolina Kettle" though so I can't knock Newfangland as they don't make them. Overall the sandwich was alright, however at $12.50 for only a sandwich and below average chips (no drink), this place gets 3 stars in my book. read more

Best chicken sandwich and tuna sandwich everrrr, and there are tons of nicknacks and little things to look at and buy while waiting for food

I kind of hate to let people know how great this place is because it's already so busy! However, I've been here twice and it is just so much better than the two top sandwich places in German Village that I have to give them a five star review and encourage them to keep doing what they're doing! I've had the meatloaf and they were both just delicious. Also, the staff is always very friendly. read more

When I say that their Shipyard Tuna Melt is the best tuna melt I've ever had, I'm not lying. Maybe even the best sandwich--or best lunch I've ever eaten. I moved away from Columbus about a year ago and this sandwich is still on my mind. That's how good it is. Tuna salad, mayo, dijon, mustard, pickles, and melted white cheddar on marbled rye. My mouth is watering as I type this. The only thing that made it better was an order of spicy Carolina Kettle potato chips on the side, along with Cheerwine, a cherry soda that tastes like a Shirley Temple. You haunt my dreams in the best way possible, Newfangled Kitchen!!! read more

I was finally able to visit this nice deli spot in Bexley. I actually drove right past it the first time. Parked at Market District and walked over. I ordered the shipyard tuna melt and chocolate kettle cookie, to-go. I bought the last cookie. The staff were nice while taking my order. The sandwich was good. Cookie was ok. I like the concept of sweet & salty. It's just the chips on it wasn't as crunchy. I certainly got my tuna fix. This is a rather late review. One I forgot to post. I can imagine this being a nice place to dine outside in the warmer months. I'd try it again. read more

Newfangled is decently priced, super fast & yummy, plus the staff is so friendly! They mostly serve meat based sandwiches but as a vegetarian i love the bella donna.

Everything about this place has been consistent and amazing - right down to the vending machine with candy cigarettes. The shipyard tuna melt has me driving 20 - 25 minutes a couple times per month just to have this sandwich. So freaking delicious - and definitely two meals, because the sandwiches are substantial. No muss/no fuss service with efficiency and a smile. Love this place. read more

AAAAAMAZING DELI!!! Oh my goodness. In fact, you should go there right now. Grab your keys and go! Bexley is fortunate to have the Dennison's and their remarkable establishment. Just pulling up, you'll immediately see their brand on the windows. Walk inside and you'll find seating for all. Look straight ahead and you'll be kindly greeted by Laura and Eric Dennison, owners and managers of this fabulous place. Our family has tried many things on the menu, including their yummy fanglers - roasted chicken fingers. Our kids love them! They have a delicious turkey Reuben, homemade meatloaf sandwiches, savory adult grilled cheese (and a kids' version too), and so many other great sandwiches! The ambiance is fun with paintings of animated and black and white characters. Very clean! Kind and happy staff! Wonderful food! Can't go wrong with this gem!! read more

Been meaning to check out Newfangled since I moved over to the east side. This was the perfect lunch after running errands all morning. I order the Chatty Kathy (add pickle). It was honestly one of the better chicken salad sandwiches I've had. I think the bacon really set it off. Also their pickles are slightly sweet so that went really well with the chicken salad. Their online ordering is also pretty easy and they've got socially distant pickup. My bag was waiting for me at a table near the entrance so I didn't have to fully walk in. Overall I'll definitely pickup from here again. I'm not a huge fan of meatloaf but their meatloaf sandwiches have rave review so maybe I'll try. read more

I love this place!! Of course I love the meatloaf sandwich choices - but if you don't there are other choices! Sandwiches are huge and there is choices in bread. My favorite has been the Lucifer's Hammer! The first time I couldn't handle all the jalapeño peppers on it so my next visit had it without and it was still spicy from the sauce. If you like spicy then this is the one for you! Others have had other selections and loved them as well. It is a small store front so mostly carryout (summer you can eat at the picnic tables out front!). I urge you to stop by - this is popular with the locals so you know it has to be good read more

Delicious. Had the chicken salad sandwich and it was the perfect mix of mayo, chicken and celery. The soft marbled bread added something special. read more

I was impressed with the quick in and out pickup process. Grabbed our food and was back in my car in under five minutes with online ordering. I did double meat on the meatloaf Ruben and certainly enjoyed the second large slab of meatloaf. The High Five was missing soon after the picture was taken. The empty plate suggests it was quite enjoyed. The pimento had a decent kick of spice to it and the cup was filled to the top. The pretzels were a perfect pairing. read more
