    You know it's going to be a great place when it's before noon, and the restaurant is already filled with locals! I got the white bbq sandwich, and it knocked me off my feet. Perfect portions, and the homemade bread brings the sandwich together!!! I also got a slice of coconut cream pie, which was delicious too. So good, my brother bought his own after trying mine. It's a casual well loved place, service was fast, and there was plenty of seating.

    Chupacabra sandwich with the sauce on the size including the habanero sauce

    Pretty chill vibes & super welcoming staff. The bread on that Chupacabra sandwich was so fresh, it hit the spot..I still felt hungry after just 1 sandwich but that's just me lol I will definitely be back to try their other options.

    The art on the wall changes regularly, I'm told

    Best sandwich I've had all year! Soft, fresh bread baked in-house, delicious cuts of meat and cheese, and tasty spread. Prices were respectable, and service was friendly and efficient. I'll be back many times.

    Everything is excellent, the sandwiches, soups and deserts are al fresh and delicious. I like that i can order pickup over Local Toast and its ready in 10 minutes, enough time to drive there and have it waiting for me.. The bread is soft and tasty and that separates them from the pretenders.

    They DO NOT have pastrami.
    Bien L.

    Well I called and asked if they had pastrami sandwiches. So I drive from the other side of town just to get there and they didn't have real pastrami they had something called turkey pastrami? Ridiculous that a sandwiche shop doesn't know the difference. Especially when I made sure to call ahead. I hate leaving bad reviews but. It seems to be a good sandwich spot, it was full when I showed up. Again Ive been let down by a restaurant and thise so called foodie tik tok reviews. They dont serve real Pastrami what a let down. You know how has real pastrami? Yea the big chain restaurants . I try to support our local spots but when the sandwiche spot doesn't know the difference in studd is very disappointing. Well big chain Firehouse subs restaurant for the win again. Oh justvlike Turkey bacon isn't bacon...Turkey pastrami isn't real pastrami its Just TURKEY!

    Plenty of room for your groups!

    I had the pleasure of eating here today with one of my elementary school retiree groups. A member of the group suggested it when we made our list of venues for 2024. She told us they had the best sandwiches and guaranteed we would love it. Riding down with one of my friends, I worried about parking. She can't walk far, and I didn't want a long hike after dropping her off out front. I shouldn't have worried. The minute we turned on the street (King William), I saw a space on the street right across from the entrance that I could drive right into and fake parallel parking by simply backing up closer to the next vehicle. When I opened the door for my friend, I saw what looked like a huge room with a large table in the middle for our group. The menu was up on very nicely backlit signs that made reading it super easy. We sat down with the folks who got there before us and waited a few minutes for the rest of our group. Then, some of us went up to order just as a little rush started. I noticed that you could order and pay at the table by scanning the QR code on the little placards. It didn't matter how we ordered, the food came out to us super fast! I think I figured out how they can do it so quickly. They have a fantastic selection of sandwiches. Most of them have either turkey or roast beef. They start with their absolutely wonderful store-baked bread, put a mountain of either turkey or roast beef on it, add some cheese and a few veggies, then slather it with a sauce. It is the different sauces that create the different sandwiches. For example, I had the Thai Fighter. It had a deliciously spicy red curry sauce on it. Let me tell you that they have perfected that sauce. I really liked everything about the sandwich, and can't wait to go back and try some others. I also had the soup of the day, which is creamy poblano on Tuesdays. It was really satisfying. I loved that it was not salted heavily, allowing the full flavor of the peppers to come through. For dessert, I chose a slice of their pumpkin cheesecake. It wasn't on the menu, and my friend that goes there weekly says they frequently have a special cheesecake like that. This was pumpkin flavored on the top and traditional on the bottom. As usual, I only had one delicious bite. It was really hard for me to pass it on for others to try. I really wanted to eat more. After it went around the table, someone set it right back in front of me. I shoved it way across the table and watched as one of my friends took another bite every few minutes. It was so good she couldn't help herself until it was all gone. I need to mention the hibiscus mint tea. I couldn't taste any hibiscuses in it (what are they? flowers?), but the subtle bloom of mint with each sip was dazzling enough for me. I went back for a second glass, which is very unusual for me. I forgot to take pictures while I was there, so I am adding the picture of our group.

    Garlic roast beef
    Darian C.

    The garlic roast beef sandwich was really good. It wasn't dry at all and so garlicky which I loved. I took it togo and it was still so good after I got home. The store had lots of seating and seemed clean. The service was really fast and the workers were nice. I'm just sad they are open limited hours.

    Pesto turkey sandwich
    Landis M.

    I haven't seen the place, but my coworker brought me the pesto sandwich from here and oh my it is very good. If you're a sandwich person you need to try this place. It is also fairly priced!

    Apr 2024 chef salad
    Susan C.

    17 Apr 2024 I arrived early for my King William volunteer gig, so I thought I'd grab some lunch. I had about an hour before my shift. Arriving at noon I thought I would have to wait. Not so. I was second in line. By 12:30pm however, the line was almost out the door. Anyway, I ordered the chef salad and a small drink. Interesting presentation. The salad is in a plastic container with lid, think the containers HEB packages their single slices of cake in. It, a plastic knife and fork, some napkins and the cup of dressing was placed in a red paper-lined plastic basket. So I dumped the salad onto the paper in the basket, added the dressing and proceeded to eat. I guess that's what you're supposed to do. It was good. I'll probably go back if I'm in the area. Prices are very reasonable. Along with salads, soups, sandwiches and baked good are also available.

    Garlic Roast Beef Sandwich

    An awesome cheap eat! The roast beef sandwich was highly recommended, so I'm glad I was able to swing by to try it! I got takeout but service was friendly and speedy!

    The station club sandwich
    Wilber S.

    The station club sandwich is to die for! The bread is homemade and nice and toasty. It is big enough to fill you for a while for sure. The service is great and ambiance it's up to standard with the norm in SA.

Being that each sandwich costs a little over $11, I was highly disappointed... If I wanted a veggie sandwich, I would have ordered one, being that the options were available.

There was not a single person in military uniform there. This place should just be upfront & say No Military Discount Vice oh You Have to be in Uniform for a discount. Also it's very loud, it was very hard to communicate while placing my order & asking about the Military Discount.. I had to raise my voice & repeat the order numerous times. Vice oh you have to be in uniform. So Military Brethren's beware of their Military Discount clause. Also my order/number was overlooked by 5-6 numbers after me. To the point where I standing in front to pick up my order & was asked what do I want.

Parking in the Pullman market was easy. It really is $0 with validation and for up to 2 hours. I was looking for ground flax, they only had whole. Looking for cinnamon infused honey, they did not have. Just weird shit like lavender infused. I enjoyed the elevated feel of the place, very transporting and nicely curated with so many spaces in and out doors to sit and people watch or just hang out with friends.

It's the kind of place folks drift into and, before long, start calling their own. The people there carry themselves with quiet pride--no fuss, no show--just a steady hand at their work and a genuine welcome for whoever steps through the door. The menu ain't thrown together. It's been shaped with care, like a well-tuned string on a guitarra, each choice meant to stand on its own but better still when taken together. The flavors come through bold and honest, with a little flourish here and there--nothing overdone, just enough to remind you somebody back there knows what they're about. It's a small spot, sure, but that only draws folks closer. Feels a bit like gathering under a shaded porch after a long day--easy talk, shared laughter, and the sense you're among friends, whether you've known 'em years or just met 'em. Every greeting carries the warmth of old ties, like you've been welcomed back rather than simply let in. And the food--well, it doesn't hold back. Each bite's got a richness that settles in and makes you slow down, take notice, and then go back for more. It's the kind of meal that stays with you, the way a good story does. Spend a little time there with friends, and you'll come away knowing you've found something true--a place where the spirit of San Antonio, with its charro heart and neighborly ways, lives on in every plate set down and every hand extended in welcome.

So, when co-workers wanted to go yesterday, I jumped on it. Don't get me wrong. I love the vibe of this place. I LOVE their story. It's very NY/Northeastern deli feel (they're from Pittsburgh, but you get my drift, right!?). No nonsense. Small inside area. No tables inside. Just enough room to look at the menu, order, and go wait outside. I opted for the chicken bacon ranch on hoagie. What came out was a decent size sandwich, but incredibly messy and soggy. There was so much juice/ liquid the sandwich quickly became unmanageable and just disintegrated. Look, if you're going to serve a sandwich that messy, please upgrade your napkins. It was a one bite - two napkin ratio. The sandwich was good, but the mess and difficulty eating it just took away any enjoyment. Additionally, the flies outside rivaled the worst I've experienced. Do you remember the scene in the Lost World, Jurassic Park movie when the hunters found the Rex nest!? Okay, okay, maybe not that bad, but it was a lot. Hang some fly bags or strips or somethin'. Found price to be a little high. By the time I bought chips and a drink, plus tip: $22. Just FYI: my co-worker disagrees. He thought it was the BEST SANDWICH HE'D EVER HAD. So, yes, go give them a try, but bring a beach towel for clean up.
