Sourdough & Co — Restaurant in Dublin

This was my first time trying sourdough and co. Outside of this chain, I love sourdough bread, especially the sourdough batard from Trader Joe's. With that context in mind, I visited this sourdough and co location.

The food was good, although, to be honest, not all sandwiches should be on sourdough bread. I ordered a pastrami rueben and an italian. Both tasted very good, but the sourdough flavor was distracting and didn't add any new or interesting flavors to the traditional mix of ingredients of both sandwiches. Additionally, the rueben had mostly lettuce instead of sauerkraut, which further deteriorated the joy from the sandwich.

I also ordered a large cobb salad. When the staff member handed me my whole order, she said the was very sorry, but they didn't have eggs. If you don't know what cobb salad is, eggs play an irreplaceable role in it. The staff member said they only found that out when they were in the process of making it. I am not one to ask for a discount or a complimentary item or anything like that. However, in a purchase, the buyer and a seller enter in a contract, which is even sometimes codified in local or country law. When a person pays for something, and business doesn't have that something, they are expected to offer to cancel the transaction immediately. Any other action is a breach of contract, unless the buyer agrees to any modifications. In this case, they brought up the missing key ingredient several seconds before I walked out of the door, which is not even enough time for me to realize I was swindled, stiffed, and fooled. In hindsight, I should have asked to cancel the salad and give it back to them, but at the moment I felt it would be unappreciative of the staff's efforts to make my food.

In either case, I am left with a sour taste in my mouth, because I had to get home, boil eggs, and only then enjoy the salad. As everyone knows, eggs are an unaffordable expense for some at the time of this writing (April 2025), so I was not only wronged flavor-wise by the business, but also financially.

I won't be back to any sourdough &co location, mostly because of the flavor profile of sandwiches (although I firmly believe some sandwiches should be made on sourdough. Maybe I should have tried the cranberry chicken one). But the sour taste from being stiffed an egg in a $13 salad is also a major factor in...

I remember the first time I had a sandwich here. It was a couple years ago when they had recently opened. When I went inside I thought their prices are a bit higher that the competition but after taking the first bite I found out why. The bread is super fresh and delicious. Meat and ingredients are just as tasty and fresh as the bread.

Over the past year or two I've had different sandwiches whether it was in store or through door dash(yes they have door dash fyi) and each time I've been satisfied.

Besides sandwiches they also have salads and soups. Dinning area is medium sized and seats about 24-30 people.

All in all if you are craving a tasty and fresh sub sourdough and co is the...

I am a huge sourdough bread fan, so naturally you would think this place would be a match!

I have been here like 6 times and not once have they gotten my order correct. The staff at the register are always grumpy, and to be honest for the price is it unacceptable.

Ordering here is maddening. When you say you want all the toppings it seems to be at the cashiers discretion what that means. Do not bother to pay extra for additional toppings they are unlikely to put it on your sandwich

Most annoying part is that they no longer give your or ask you if you want the pickle on the side. I suspect a cheap owner is telling them not...
