Best sandwich in Dublin

x00065954

Right folks so I was thinking, everyone likes a nice sandwich now and again and if you dont you are just a plain liar So my question to you all is where and what is the best sandwich in Dublin? Now lets not include the franchise type sandwiches ie Subway, O'Briens etc as there is no real passion or personality to them sandwiches. So folks, what and where is the best sandwich in Dublin?

I am pie

Milanesa Cordobesa sandwich or Lomito Completo at Bon Diola, beside the 51 on haddington road.

Beef or Beef Milanesa with varying degrees of egg / cheese and possibly ham.

Kitty-kitty

Believe it or not, the Sugar Loaf Bakery in Heuston Station (NOT the god awfully dry, dull one across the way) the staff are also super nice.

Mortons, Hatch Street (off Harcourt Street), quality sandwich!

Sergeant

Angel Park on Lower Mount Street (beside Howl at the Moon).

Amazing.

Triangular

I'm still searching for a replacement for the old delicatessen that used to be beside independent pizza in Drumcondra. Only by chance did I mention it to my uncle a few weeks back and he agreed, it was his favourite sandwich shop around back in his teens and 20's...

OP i know you said we shouldn't, and I agree, they value quantity over quality, but a plain old ham and cheese toasty in O'Briens has been my choice of late and is very hard to get wrong.

Both great choices.

You need to put a half hour aside for a snooze after a Pig & Heifer sandwich though.

Haha same here.

Honest To Goodness is class but just a euro or two on the pricey side. Must check out the Pig & Heifer looks a bit more reasonably priced.

If anything I always though the Pig & Heifer was more expensive. I've never compared and contrasted directly though.

I'll second that. Mortons do smashing sandwiches.

This thread was done recently enough too; see below...

Pig & Heifer seems to be the resounding answer to the best sandwich in Dublin question.

Offside

Junior's in ringsend do amazing sandwiches Monday - Friday at lunchtime. The Chargrilled Chicken has to be the best sandwich I've tasted in Dublin - give it a go and you won't regret it!

Woodstock in Phibsborough do amazing sambos

They are a little expensive but their triple decker sandwich is very satisfying

McChicken Sandwich in participating McDonalds throughout the country

Agree - used to be in that neck of the woods from time to time and the sandwiches were amazing. But.... they have absolutely no order or queuing system - it's a bit of a free for all!

Woodstock do gorgeous food in general. Their bacon & brie sandwich is beautiful, and their ploughmans with a slice of baked ham is smashing!

I went to the Pig and Heifer after reading this thread. Maybe I was expecting too much, but it wasn't great at all. Even below average. I got the hot beef, the pastrami looked good, might give it another go and have that

Possibly funnier in your head.

+1 for the Food Room. Personal favourite was a club sandwich but swapping the normal chicken for tandoori chicken. Nom.

Pricey though.

If they do a good job I don't mind paying the price.

Cuisine de France baguettes have ruined rolls in Ireland. Really nice when fresh and crusty, but I reckon 1 in 20 are fresh. The other 19 are soft on the outside. But every bog standard shop used them.

wasn't trying to be funny. It's a genuinely nice sandwich

I think I've been watching Man V Food and the likes too much, my expectation of sandwiches has gone through the roof and is completely unrealistic.

YumCha

Everything at The Pepper Pot and The Cake Cafe... but possibly the pear, bacon and cheddar sandwich at Pepper Pot is my favourite.

Also everything at Eastwood and Mays - daily changing roast in a roll nyommmm

Also Listons and Sheridans (yes they do sandwiches!)

washiskin

They might not be the biggest or the trendiest, but the sandwiches in Simon's Place in George's St Arcade have my vote. The bread is fantastic and the filings are not mean but above all the quality is consistently good. Add a side of the Cauliflower Cheese salad and bob's your uncle.

Such a massive response of everybody thank you all so much as I will defiantly be trying all these places in the very near future Alot of places been mentioned but no one really has mentioned their favourite sandwich from the joints named? Tempted to go into town tomorrow just to get a sandwich First stop is The Pig And Heifer

Slunk

Have tried sugar loaf in Heuston and its fairly decent. Same with Superquinn in hsq. The mention of roast in a roll brings me back to Melbourne. A carvery roll. Roast meat joint, gravy, veg whatever you want in a roll. * Homer drool*

Place on Amiens St has a queue out the door at lunchtime and they are always running out of stock

Get there early!

Hot Colin. Also hot and it's with pastrami, like you'd get in a New York deli, nyom nyom

I know you don't really want to discuss sandwiches produced by chains, but can I please welcome back the Eddie Rocket's club sandwich after a couple of years' absence?

Also, I greatly regret the disappearance of the short-lived Insomnia smoked salmon and egg sandwich, which was their best sambo by a mile.

I clicked into this thread just to post Morton's. I miss them. (I don't work nearby anymore)

Lolly & Cooks - yum yum

yoho_ahoy

Against the grain, club sandwich. The fried egg is divine i made the mistake of ordering chips on the side it was too much. It is a lovely establishment.

The Big Red Button

Thomas Reads, in the IFSC. Amazing!! And unbelievably cheap, too.

snickerpuss

Andersons on The Rise in Glasnevin has an extensive sandwich menu (20+) with proper bread and they have Illy coffee. Plus, it's not far from the Botanic Gardens, so it's good after a walk.

Scortho

Downstairs in Avoca on Suffolk Street.
They do amazing made to order sandwiches for 5.50! Works out way cheaper than the upstairs part and beats a 3 euro roll from some spar or centra any day

I've changed my mind - Thomas Reads is now a very very distant second!

I was in the Busy Bean Café on Molesworth St today (between Kildare Street and Dawson Street.) They have a great menu, loads of really varied fresh ingredients. I went for the cajun chicken ciabatta - it was amazing! Tonnes of really fresh delicious roast veggies. Easily the nicest sandwich I've ever had in my life. Can't wait to go there again!!

They (Angel Park) use only free range chicken, too.

Do wraps count?

I got a savage Chilli Chicken Wrap in The Church on Monday.

Hiitsme

My choice may not be hip 'n trendy but Dunnes Cafe do a fantastic Hot Roast of the Day in a crusty roll with tea or coffee for 5.25! The very nice lady cut slices of rib roast off a big juicy joint, added stuffing & a few onions - heaven .... and really good value.

I was so impressed I went back the next week to try there normal sambo deal. Any sandwich with tea/coffee for 4.95 and none of this 'you can only have 2 fillings malarkey', you could have whatever you wanted. I had chicken with stuffing, mayo, rocket & red onion - yum. The nice lady even put two handfuls of crinkle crisps on the side of my plate

KC Peaches on Nassau Street.

Get the club..... hate to say it but better than the pig & heiffer.
