Evening Rise Bread Co — Restaurant in McCall

I'm totally conflicted about this place. Their sandwiches and breads are excellent. The service, however, leaves a lot to be desired. If you've ever seen the Seinfeld episode "The Soup Nazi", that would perfectly describe this place. The food is great, but there is one employee, possibly the owner, who is always in a bad mood and responds curtly to any inquiry. If you ask, "What's on the New Yorker sandwich, we've had that here before and loved it", he retorts, "that's Friday's special!", and nothing more. Guess you can't build your own New Yorker on any other day than Friday? Let's say you want to know "do you have sourdough bread today?", he sharply bites back with "all our breads are written on the wall!" I am absolutely convinced if I ask one more question the verdict will be, "No sandwich for you!" The guy even has the soup Nazi's mustache. While I really enjoy the food at this place and they have a quality product that absolutely deserves five stars, I have to deduct for their service (and probably should deduct more than just one star). If you are in town and don't have to deal with this guy on a regular basis, it's worth the hassle and almost amusing to see how much this guy can't stand other people. He actually shut down and stopped serving sandwiches today at 1:30, even though they are open till 5, and I think it was because he got frustrated with a few customers. I was glad we had already gotten our food, and we happily ate at the outside table as we saw droves of customers turning away saying, "I guess they stopped making sandwiches" in...

First, this place is hardly ever open, so there may be several disappointments until you catch them on a good day. (Do NOT rely on Google Maps!)

When arriving, you'll take a slip and circle your choice of bread, meat, cheese, toppings and dressing. Then, place in the basket. Do not touch the basket after you have put your slip in, or you'll get a stern look from the owner. Also, write a yes or no if you want a pickle.

We both ordered turkey, and honestly, there was more meat than I needed. I did, however, appreciate the large list of toppings.

Service is like others say. The owner does seem a bit cranky. Also, the wait was about 30 minutes as there is only one woman making each sandwich, so please be patient.

These are only a few indoor tables and a few outside. We took ours to go.

If we were to go back, I think we would share a sandwich as they were larger...

Best sandwiches in Idaho! We had a relatively large group, especially for a Winter Carnival Saturday and we expected to wait an hour or more for a meal. We were pleasantly surprised when we had our food within 15 minutes! The staff are quick and efficient but so friendly! And the sandwiches are phenomenal! Piled high with delicious meats and toppings, super soft yummy bread. Specialty soft drinks and kettle chips make this the perfect lunch! Thank you for your service and hospitality!
