The Sandwich Shoppe — Restaurant in Rutland City

In town visiting an old friend and we were going to snag some sandwiches from somewhere and take the kids to the park. What a joy and a surprise to stumble into this place. I was greeted like part of the family when I walked in. Keep in mind I'm just some random dude from the Northwoods of WI. They had no clue who I was and I had never been here before.

I ordered a few adult subs and took their suggestions on how to have em made. I asked if they could whip up a couple of turkey and cheese sandwiches for the kids and they said no problem, and cut them up in quarters and overloaded them with turkey.

I don't even know what my order cost me because the whole time they were so exceptional I just paid them whatever and then threw some more in the tip jar. By the time my crew got to the park and we had our first bites we were blown away at how good they were. I mean for a simple sandwich to taste as good as these did, it is really something. My 2 and 3 year old kids demolished their turkey sandwiches too.

Awesome customer service and even better food. You won't regret going here. I wish these guys would relocate to...

There are few things that really surprise me when it comes to service and products. Perhaps this day in age we are just use to mediocre service and taste. Walking in to the Sandwich Shoppe for my first time, I felt like I stepped into a world that existed 40 years ago...as if I was a child again visiting my family in Boston with the Italian welcoming and friendly and personable smiles and conversation. The service, the conversations, and the family business already far exceeded any expectations I had. This to me was already worth the 5 star review. Then came the meatball sub...let me tell ya, the only disappointment was not having more to eat. The taste of homemade cooking brought me back to being a kid again too. Lucky for us, we have one of the best sandwich shops in the country that I've been too, here in little ol Rutland. Now my new favorite sandwich shop. When my family visits, this will be the first place I'll take them and I'm guessing they'll stay and chat for hours, probably break out a deck of cards and stay there the entire afternoon knowing them. Awesome, just fantastic and wonderful food...

My husband and I stopped here for a quick lunch while exploring downtown Rutland one afternoon. We were in town for a concert and just wanted something to tide us over until a later dinner before the show. And boy, were we glad we stopped here! The service was fantastic, seemingly run by a family that has obviously been doing it for years. They were very friendly and welcoming, not just to us but to everyone in the restaurant. You could tell they genuinely cared about their customers and were passionate about their business. And the food was delicious, too! I don't remember the exact menu items, but I had a buffalo chicken wrap, and my husband had a roast beef grinder, and both were so, so good! Our only regret - that they weren't open in time for us to have breakfast before we left town the next morning. We've already talked about coming back into Rutland for future shows, and you better believe we'll be stopping...
