This place is no longer a West Coast Sourdough unfortunately. It's now Cali Joe's and not as good. The menu is smaller. The bread isn't as yummy. Service is slow. The sandwiches were ok, but nothing to rave about. I miss West Coast. read more

When this place opened, it was so good but unfortunately has gone downhill. Not just in food but in Service too. I love their clam chowder in the bread bowl, but that's about it. And I even when I'm craving it , I struggle with purchasing it. Just because it's so over priced. Everything in here is over priced for being mediocre at best. I don't really recommend this place. If you want sandwiches, go to lovers deli. And for soup I would probably go to Jantz. read more

The service here is always amazing!!! The workers always greet me with a smile and ask how my day is going even if on a lunch break I enjoy their hospitality. The keep their tables really clean so perfect to dine in as well!! The sandwiches are the best always ready to go little to no wait time here! read more

West Coast Sourdough - Merced - Tri tip sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Merced, California

Really good clam chowder. Fresh sourdough made daily. They have a good selection of sandwiches & salads as well

I eat here A LOT! Generally the food is pretty solid when ordering inside for carry out and staff if friendly. Maybe it's because I've been standing right there and therefore, they follow the menu when preparing food. I'd like to believe that they generally care about customers? Ordering from Door Dash or Uber Eats for delivery is a crapshoot and never in a lucky way. There are menu options that allow for checking what one would like on sandwiches. These seem to be more of suggestions and are arbitrarily followed with random results unlike what is expected/checked. They also allow for notes. Unfortunately I have never actually had my notes read or followed through on an order. I've been seriously disappointed before but tonight took it to a newer level: BLT without lettuce and the smallest $15 sandwich ever. Turkey sandwich with no condiments despite checking several. Notes that were not read so items were missing. Side note- do not get lobster roll. Didn't Yelp that one but I should have. I took pictures because I had planned on reviewing it.

The old lady Anya who helped me with my order today was extremely rude. I asked if there was French roll and she said "no, that's why we're west coast sourdough, we only have sourdough" and listed 2 other breads available. I was asking a simple question and her response was not appreciated. My sandwich is alright. Her service made me not enjoy today's visit. She proceeded to tell her coworker about my question. I can hear her gossiping as I'm waiting for my food. Do better Anya. read more

Name changed Prices up Quality down No more thanks Not the best anymore Very disappointed read more

We decided to have the Italian sandwich meal and we shared it. Sandwich, salad and a drink for $21. Truthfully, we both left satisfied, no food coma and that sandwich was so worth it and we will come back and try a different sandwich. The staff was helpful, customer service, friendly and made our day with a smile. We arrived before 3 pm and received our sandwich meal right away. I recommend you go there. read more

Excellent food, great service would highly recommend! Tried the clam chowder and the vegetable flat bread.

I've been to this place 4 times in the last 2 days. No kidding it has the best bread bowl and baguettes I've ever had. All the staff are very kind, even when busy and stressed. Super grateful for their friendliness and support in my wonderful meals. Wish I was local, this would be one of my weekly spots. Hope yo read more

If you're craving some sourdough this is your spot, if your craving a clam chowder bread bowl, this is your spot and as far as the sandwiches go, they are a home run!! They certainly don't skimp on the meat. Their clam chowder had a good amount of clams as well. But I would have to say the star of the show was the bread, some of the best sourdough I've had. read more

Different name, same food. Had an absolutely delicious French Dip sandwich with very good clam chowder. I was in heaven! Pepperoni flatbread was also yummy and the Italian sandwich is also really good! I'll definitely be coming back. read more

I'm from out of town and landed in this gem. Was looking for a quick bite while my mom was having surgery at the hospital down the street. I ate my veggie sandwich and cookie in the car and it was so damn good I went back in and ordered basically the whole damn menu! The soups come with soft warm Sourdough that soaks up the soup perfectly! We ordered the following and not one bite has disappointed: Tomato Bisque Chicken Poblano Soup Veggie Sandwich Lemon Chip cookie (orgasmic) Italian Sandwich Turkey Sandwich Macaroni and cheese Staff, cleanliness, fast pace, pricing...such a flippin good spot. I'll be back before I leave. read more

The pastrami sandwich was tasty, but the service and atmosphere were unremarkable. It felt similar to dining at Subway.

Love the food! Great service. Very clean I don't eat anywhere else. Great place to eat. Good prices!

Service was disappointing at this sandwich shop slow, unfriendly, and careless.And they weren't even busy

The staff is rude, and the sandwiches are lacking. I ordered a Reuban, not much meat, and just a hint of saurekraut, although l couldn't find any,way over rated, I would rather go to Togos or Subway!! read more

The quality of food does not match the price. The service wasn't great either. My family and I went after Sunday Mass at 6:40. I understand they close at seven and we had no intentions of eating there as I saw another employee putting up the chairs and sweeping. The couple in front me ordered and went to sit down to wait for their order to be called. When I approached the cashier informs me that my order would have to be to go because they were closing. I didn't think anything of it since I could see myself they were indeed closing. The two customers that ordered after me however weren't told the same message. One of the customers actually sat down to eat. We should have gone to Panda. read more

Was excited to try new shop.Ok the good the bread is amazingly delicious and fresh.Now my sandwich was meh and the meat was salty .Everything was a bit off.Despite being very busy they have great service.The place is cozy at best. read more

I don't understand why my sandwich was made wrong I don't know if the manager messed up or if the worker messed up by not reading the order it was supposed to be a turkey French dip using honey wheat bread. A large. The mgr said so u want a turkey sandwich with a side of au jus. I said yes but on wheaf bread. I get home and it's on sourdough. So irritating it wouldn't be so bad if we were there cause we could have done a remake but people should really make sure on to go orders. SMH!!! read more

Just saw one of these lady workers drop something on the floor, she picked up the item that fell with her gloves and continued to use those same gloves to handle my food. place is pretty unsanitary and it's bc of the workers I'll tell you that much. also the cashier rushes you if it's your first time so just a heads up before you consider taking your money here. LETS GO TOGOS read more

W came here for lunch. Been to a few other of these places. This one was pretty good. Have to say. If you get here. It's worth it. I recommend going ahead and get a bite if you hungry! read more

West Coast Sourdough - Merced - Turkey sandwich with clam chowder - Sandwiches Near Me - Merced, California

Best Sandwich I've ever had. Sourdough bread is toasted golden and has a light crisp on the outside and softness towards the center . The thin sliced ham and provolone quality is very similar and on par to Jersey Mikes. This is a high quality great tasting sandwich ! read more

First time here and I'm not impressed. I came here on Thursday 5/4/23 at 3:49pm order#161 Order 3 sandwich and one of the turkey sandwich I asked for add on: extra meat (ham and roast beef) which I didn't mind being charged for because that's what I want however it only had one or two slice in it. Quit disappointing, even tip them too. Does not compare to subway's double meat at all. I also Order a clam chowder and it was bland but they do have salt and black pepper on the sides. read more

West Coast Sourdough - Merced - Order a turkey sandwich and asked to add on 2 extra meat: ( Ham and Roasted beef) yet the sandwich barely had any protein. Disappointed - Sandwiches Near Me - Merced, California

i loved this place it was good and the customer service was good and i didn't know it was from the bay area and the bay food is always good

Got home and they didn't put the aujus in for my French dip Called them and they said they did. So I guess I'm a liar. 20 dollars an hour doesn't make the employee's any smarter. I'm a pretty regular customer but never again. read more

New, clean, clever menus hide storage on the back wall. Typical sandwich places, variety of sandwiches, many bread, meat, trimming choices. Alas, in their enthusiasm to fill cups with dressing, etc, they overflow them so opening them can be a disaster. Then, there was a really, really strange, gooey cream colored substance attached to the glob of bacon bits in my cobb salad that had plenty of goodies, but scratchy lettuce. Blah bleu cheese dressing, $9 for a small salad, ouch. Not sure I will be back. read more

WAY TOO expensive. I spent nearly $50 on two sandwich combos and they do not one hour to make a Reuben. They made it on sourdough and they told me it was my fault for not specifically telling them use rye . Just make it at home it'll taste better be right and cheaper . read more

We decided to try this sandwich place today heard it was good. My husband ordered on line went and in to pick up he stood there while the lady there ignored him for a few minutes then just walked away my husband walked over to another area and she came back out still not even asking what he needed finally asked what he needed and he said to pick up his food that had been sitting there the entire time . He gets the food we went home to eat it and it was just ok nothing special I got the BBQ brisket and he got the Ruben. I personally like deli Delicious a lot better will probably never go back . To bad we gave it a try though each is to there own good luck . read more

I always get their tuna sandwich and the tuna tastes superior. Plus their house mayo mix is so good. The best part is obviously their sourdough bread! My kids like their Mac n cheese . read more

I found this spot by chance. I went in and found a busy sandwich shop with a long line. I waited. I ordered the pesto turkey sandwich. The bread was the star for sure! I know this place is new so I hope that they can keep the quality up. If you want to up your game with the pesto turkey sandwich, add pepperoni. Boom. Delish. read more

1st time trying out this new place and we enjoyed it! Sandwiches were a good size for the price. Clam chowder was enjoyable as well, but nothing special. It comes with 2 pieces of bread on the side if you order the cup. Ordered the 6 in garlic pesto turkey + Swiss cheese and roast beef sandwich + provolone on sourdough bread with all toppings and house sauce. Bread was a little thinner than expected, but was still enjoyable and better than having too thick of a bread! The bread was great, toasted and soft/chewy on the inside and not soggy at all as we ate there. Service was fast even though it was a little busy (went at dinner time), so that was nice! The tables were clean once we seated ourselves and the interior is nicely decorated for the space. Menu is easy to read and order from and has a variety of sandwiches. Overall, would recommend, can't go wrong with a good sandwich and new place to sit in to eat. It's nice to see Merced having more businesses trickling in and having more options to eat at. It's clean, new, and promising so far. (-: read more

We ate at the location in Merced. Very good service and the sandwiches were great. Really like their variety of menu choices.

West Coast Sourdough - Merced - Turkey Cranberry Sandwich, Caesar Salad & Lobster Bisque - Sandwiches Near Me - Merced, California

100% super disappointed about this place. I was really excited about a new place coming to Merced, lord knows we need it. But damn, the food ain't hittin right with me. Let me explain... I was hungry as hell so decided to try out the lobster roll and a clam chowder bread bowl...don't judge, I was hungry af. The lobster roll was straight trash. OMG, y'all, it tasted like sweet pickles and rancid tuna. The clam chowder was bland and didn't have any flavor at all. It was also so hot that I had to set it down for like 10 minutes just to cool down, and it was still on fire. I wish I would have eatin the clam chowder first. Maybe it would have killed the rest of the flavor. Oh btw, went back just to give it one more try. I got the buffalo chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries. Once again, just plain crap. I gave the fries to my dog Merced deserves better, raise your standards! read more
