My husband and I shared ham sandwich and it was really good. The bread was chewy and soft at the same time. All the veggies they put on are fresh. I recommend putting carameralized carrots. I was bid sad to see how little ham they used tho. They said their recommendations are chicken schnitzel and spicy chicken. If I ever had a chance to go back to Sydney, I would definitely go out of my way to get their sandwhiches again.

We took the opportunity on a day off to visit. Knowing it's popularity, we ordered online which was awesome because it meant they were ready on arrival. Now you can get a sandwich pretty much anywhere these days, but these are more than just your regular sandwich. They are massive gourmet sandwiches, on the softest, freshest bread ever! You can get some of their listed options or alter them on the order if there's something you can't eat. We ordered the "Jimmy Sandwich" on brown bread (you can opt brown or white) with Chilli chicken, lettuce, avocado, caramelised carrot, cucamber, spanish onion, rocket & red pesto. We added some pickles. A delicious and huge sandwich that kept us full for hours. Some other examples include sandwiches with Veggies, chicken schnitzel, ham, poached chicken, smoked salmon and even special add ons of caramelised carrot or potato salad. There's also salads served in little takeaway boxes if you prefer. Salads are dressed with a light balsamic vinegar and olive oil. We went to the Alexandria store and there's a few stools to sit outside and eat. We're super keen to return when we get a day off!

Sandwiches, sandwiches, SANDWICHES!!!…read more Like Joey from Friends, I love me some sandwiches. I believe this place opened less than a month ago, and I noticed it when I went to Single Origin one day and made a note to check it out. As its namesake states, this place is a simple sandwich shop. The interior is cozy, the people friendly, and the music sets the mood. Me gusta. The place is clean, straight to the point with natural and fresh ingredients, affordable (under $10!) and tasty to boot. They don't do sides except for the bread they serve during breakfast, and they also have salads if you don't want to have a sandwich. Let's be real here though, why would you go to The Sandwich Shop and not order a sandwich? Depending on the sandwich, you get to choose what kind of bread you'd like as well between rye, sourdough, and whole wheat. The sandwiches on tap are: Chicken Schnitzel The Sandwich Club Rare Roast Beef Tuna + White Bean Smoked Salmon Bagel The Original New York Reuben Pulled Pork The Ultimate Salad Sandwich You can also create your own sambo if you like. My friend and I ordered the Rare Roast Beef and The Original New York Reuben. If you like cheese, you will like the Rare Roast Beef. The Fontina Cheese used to top this was massive and flavourful. The roast beef could have been a bit more rare for my taste but it was still very good nonetheless. The Reuben...the reuben was great. I wouldn't call it the Original New York Reuben but that's not a bad thing. The Reuben served here was very high quality, as the beef is a thicker and juicier slice than you'd get with a New York Reuben. The cheese, sauerkraut and dressing were great as well. Definitely the best "Reuben" I've had in Sydney so far. If you like sandwiches you can't go wrong here. I'll have to come back to try the others.

They were all good especially the brisket sandwich. The meat was very tender and juicy. I love that they used fresh arugula and pickled onion which balanced well with the meat. The tuna melt was very tasty as well. The sourdough bread was well toasted adding some crunchiness. I'll definitely go back for more.

We also ordered the "Sticky BBQ Pork" BBQ pork, Smokey BBQ sauce, Ranch salad and onion rings in a soft bun. Can't wait to go back and try some other delicious sandwiches, they also have some fries, nacho fries, bbq fries, onion rings and other tasty little bites.

I'm a bit of a plain foodie so many of the coffee shops had fancy pastries and breakfast sandwiches. I was looking for your regular plain Jane egg sandwich with cheese . Paddington grind satisfied that craving . Eggs are usually served on a piece of toast but our waiter was able to make it a sandwich for me. She was very nice and accommodating. It was funny because she asked if it's easier for me to eat with two pieces of bread and in a way I suppose so. We were happy with our experience here.

Grind does a roaring trade, particularly on a Saturday, when there's always a line of people waiting for takeaway coffees. The cafe may be tiny but what it lacks in size in makes up for with a simple but tasty cafe menu. For me you cannot go past the BLAT - Bacon, Lettuce, Avocado and Tomato on toasted Turkish bread. I think this is my favourite sandwich it works for breakfast, brunch, lunch - hey you could even eat it for dinner!

Oh boy, thankfully I found this place from seeing a guy with a giant sandwich wrapped in foil while…read morehe was eating it in the executive club of our hotel across the street. This is a togo place only, and the line would have about 10 or more people in it at all times. Three people behind the counter took the orders that were not done online and made the food just as fast as they could. It takes about 10-15 minutes from getting in line to picking up, which is great if you were short on time as many of the local business people seemed to be. There is no signage from the street to find this place, but if you are lost, just ask anyone in the local businesses because that is what I did. They also have a daily specials board, and any sandwich can be made as a wrap, too. It was huge and delicious, and I would definitely go back again.

Once inside, you're going to have to take a step back and absorb the gigantic menu.. it's literally a giant menu from floor to ceiling but it has about 793643 sandwiches listed. I had the hardest time making a choice but I went with my heart and got the Roasted Duck with boiled egg, cucumber, mint, coriander, chili paste and hoisan sauce on Turkish bread and their juice of the week (passionfruit, carrot, watermelon and orange).. OMG!!!!! Probably one of the BEST and FRESHEST sandwiches I've ever had!!! And the juice was just as amazing!!! But the thing I was most truly amazed about was the gentleman behind the counter who took my order. I'm sure they have tons of regulars who come in and so they'll remember names, but to remember their order too?? I'm not talking about 1 or 2 people.. there were more than a handful of customers who walked in and it seemed like everyone was an old friends. Kudos for superior customer service!!!! I'm coming again and trying the entire menu and so should you!!!!

You wouldn't expect this place to be a top notch sandwich and juice bar but it is...they have an extensive sandwich menu for less than $9 each, and they have special rolls that go for $10. I had the Vietnamese style chicken schnitzel (recommended by a friend) and it was pretty damn tasty...you can swap this to a wrap if the baguette might be too hard/flaky for you. It's also delicious... You can get a fresh juice of your choice starting at $3 or you can have them create a sandwich/juice from their bar altogether. The queue gets pretty massive at lunchtime but it moves extremely quick, and if you come enough they'll remember your name. Surry Hills has some pretty damn good sandwich offerings...

It is more of a quick cuppa or take away sandwich place. Not knocking it in any way. I've had a fairly decent bite to eat there and my chai tea was good, albeit not quite hot enough. i just didn't find it comfortable enough to want to hang around beyond my food and drink. It's really small inside and the tables and chairs are pretty close together so you feel a bit squashed and conspicuous. It seems to me that it is more of a meeting place for a coffee and perhaps a treat (of which there are some delicious looking ones) And I don't suppose it claims to be anything else either. Its right there on Fiveways, that great junction in Paddington. So a better location you could not ask for and many of the pre-prepared lunch meals were sold out by the time I got there later on in the afternoon, so clearly it is fairly popular. For all I know it could be legendary with the locals! it was my first visit though and first impressions were 'nice, but nothing too special.'

Gusto is the perfect place to let the day pass by as you sip a macchiato and munch on sweet treats. This café and delicatessen reminds me of ones you would find in Europe, with locals socializing here habitually. My cappuccino was above average and executed with precision. Their banana bread is a divine slice of heaven on a plate. I also tried a fudge brownie with chocolate chips that was intensely sweet but packed an equally strong cocoa punch. Gusto also sells a variety of fresh paninis, wraps, and salads that will tickle anyone's taste buds. I would suggest that you try your hardest to get a seat outside to marvel at the harbor views. Also, you're a people-watcher like me, this is the place to do it. People flock to Gusto on a regular basis, so you might find yourself waiting to get a seat. Even so, you can still experience their tasty sandwiches on the go. The servers aren't very approachable or welcoming, but they do their job well.
