    Smoked chicken salad sandwich, toasted
    Shaquita Y.

    Another treat. I love being off during the week so I can stop by for lunch. I got the Smokey chicken salad sandwhich, with cheese and toasted. So much flavor. It took only a few minutes between ordering and getting the sandwich. Staff is always pleasant.

    Turkey Truffle  I thought maybe the aïoli was on the other side of the sandwich?

    The lady seemed shocked when I walked in. It's a TINY TINY TINY place. Literally enough room for one or two people to stand and wait while their food or being made. They have outdoor seating but no trash cans. I wish I knew this was a take out spot so I could have prepared better. But I don't think I'll be back..... Edit to add! I ordered the turkey truffle, excited to try the homemade truffle red onion aïoli. The sandwich looks promising. Nice high stick of turkey. Thick tomato slices.... First bite was delicious! Great turkey sandwich. As I get about half way through I realize there's no homemade truffle red onion aioli. Unfortunately there is only regular mayonnaise. Quite disappointed with that. And honestly the whole experience. I wouldn't recommend this place... there's a Safeway up the street and I think my $12 for one basic sandwich could go a lot further there.

    Delicious little restaurant located in a little shopping center next to Spuds Market. I was shopping at Spuds and decided to stop for lunch. Very friendly greeting when I walked in. They advised that brisket hot sandwich is most popular. I chose the half rueben sandwich and tomato soup. The tomato soup was freshly made with real tomatos and taste sooo satisfying. Sandwich is one of the best rueben sandwiches I have ever had. Freshest ingredients absolutely. Every bite was very satisfying tasty. No seating inside but 2 tables outside. Yes I'll return again.

    Sausage and cheddar breakfast sandwhich

    Hubby and I shared a sausage and egg breakfast sandwich here, while we were grabbing coffee next door. We ordered and paid inside and they were nice enough to bring it out to us as we sat outside with our coffees, waiting. The sandwich was not too big but we weren't super hungry so splitting it was fine. The bread is kinda like a biscuit. In addition to the sausage, there's cheese and a fluffy egg. Really good and it hit the spot. The regular sandwiches also look really good. Next time I'm in Olympia, we'll have to try their lunch sandwiches.

    "Smokey Chicken" sandwich (chicken salad sandwich.)
    Whitney D.

    Yum! One of the best sandwiches I've ever had! Counter service, and there's a good amount of outdoor seating. I got the "Smokey Chicken", which was smoked chicken salad with pickled onions, tomato and lettuce on rye. The bread was soft and fresh, and the food was flavorful--the smoked chicken really gave it an extra dose of flavor. This spot is tucked into a nice little shopping center with lots of parking, it definitely feels like a local spot.

    Cute little sandwich place in the heart of Olympia. Fast casual dining and quick little place for a bite to eat. I got the breakfast sandwich which is served all day!! Melted in my mouth!!! So yummy. My friend got the ham & pear and quote "it's amazing". There's no inside dining but two tables outside that are great!!

    This is half of my sandwich. The smallest sandwich I have ever been served.

    I have been wanting to try this place for years, but never seem to be in the area when they are open. Today was my chance and I was very excited to support this establishment in my community. I ordered two brisket sandwiches today. One for my girlfriend and one for myself. Hers was on gluten free bread and it ended up being 3 times bigger than my regular, non gluten free sandwich. My hoagie bun was so small that I could have eaten 4 of them and still been hungry. Half of my bread was so hard that I had to throw it away. I am not one to write reviews, but this situation definitely warranted one. I had to go get lunch somewhere else afterwards. In a perfect world, two sandwiches ordered at the same time, should at least be the same size. Because her gluten free bread was so much bigger than my hoagie roll, she got 3 times as much brisket compared to my sandwich. Still shaking my head. For $32, I expect way more...I feel like this situation should be rectified.

It's my go to food option every time for breakfast. It's fluffy eggs with lettuce, red onions, and tomatoes served on a buttery garlic toast. Super filling and reasonable price. The interior gives off a modern, cozy atmosphere. Different seating options inside for those coming in as a group or individuals looking for a place to relax or study.

Then I saw their TikTok last night, and let me tell you, that video had me craving it instantly. The scrumptiousness was living rent free in my brain all night, so today my son and I had to stop in and see what the hype was about. We ordered the Sour Diesel, the Fire, and the Afgoo, all on their toasted jalapeño cheese bread. First of all, the female employee who helped us was so friendly and welcoming. We do not eat out much, so we were genuinely excited and maybe a little impatient to try them. When they handed us the sandwiches, I immediately noticed how heavy they were. And the smell in the car on the way home, oh my goodness. Pure torture waiting to unwrap them. Then we got home and opened them up, and I was honestly shocked in the best way. There was actually a MEAL on that bread. Not one of those sad sandwiches that's 80 percent lettuce and air. These were loaded. My teenage son even commented on how good his was, and trust me, teen approval is not handed out lightly. The portions were generous, the flavors were bold, and each sandwich was totally unique and delicious. I can confidently say I have found a new favorite sub spot. Total hidden gem if you love a good sandwich that actually fills you up and tastes incredible. I did not grab a shake this time because it was freezing outside, but after seeing all the flavor options on the menu, I will absolutely be trying one next visit. Highly recommend in every aspect. I love when you try somewhere new and it completely exceeds expectations. This one is a must try.

Portions are large here so I brought some of the mac home and am looking forward to having it for lunch tomorrow. My husband tried the dip sandwich with a side of the mashed potatoes and gravy and ate every last bit. He loved it. It's a very cute cafe on the corner with friendly staff. I witnessed a man in need come in and take advantage of the program they have where you can buy a meal for a hungry person to come in in the future and have a free meal. That's a lovely service to the community. So glad I was able to finally patronize this great vegan business! I'll try to come back soon!

And so long to make for a drink that did not even have the thick creaminess that ice cream shakes have. That drink was thin liquids. Liquid thinner than me. And that is not good.

How? Genuinely impressed at how a drink could suck as bad as that one did. Do not come here for the drinks. Just spend money on groceries to make your own ice cream drink at home. 15 minutes long of a wait for a singular drink that was the worst that I ever had. Shame on this place Okay, done being mad
