The chain is well known in the US for being the king of sandwiches . Everything is built around big flavours, quality ingredients and sandwiches made fresh to order. It’s the kind of place where the menu looks simple at first glance, but every detail has been thought through, from the bread right down to the sauces.
Customers can expect a range of hot and cold sandwiches stacked with slow cooked meats, fresh salad and signature dressings. Think soft toasted bread filled with tender beef or chicken, melted cheese, crisp pickles and rich sauces, all served in generous portions. There will also be sides, drinks and lighter options, making it just as good for a quick lunch as it is for a sit down bite while shopping.
These are sandwiches designed to be filling, comforting and packed with taste, rather than rushed or thrown together. It’s casual food done well, which is exactly why the chain has built such a loyal following in America
With its first UK opening landing right in the heart of Cardiff, this is one launch that sandwich fans will want to keep an eye on. Doors open on 17 January, and it looks set to be a busy one.
