    This 16-seat sandwich joint in Brookline is well worth a trip to the Boston suburbs. Pay special attention to the Pork Rabe and Roast Beef 1000 options. Read more

    Best sandwich shop in the Boston area. Can't go wrong with any of their options but the popular 'roast beef 1000' sandwich stands out as their best offering. Try it, you can thank me later.

    Every sandwich here is a winner. They're even happy to substitute ingredients for a vegetarian. My favorite is the Roast Beef 1000, with chard standing in for the meat.

    The roast beef 1000 will slap the taste of all the other roast beef you've ever tasted. Eat this sandwich warm,cold or even overnight and it will still taste incredible. I can eat a thousand of these.

    If you've already had the Roast Beef 1000, try the Greens Bacon: swiss chard, spicy mayo, and bacon make for one tasty sandwich!

    Added bacon and tomato to the grilled cheese - bacon was perfect, very crispy and thick. Also had a cup of the tomato soup which was warming and tasty with a little but of kick!

    The eggplant spuckie (+ hot peppers) got me through my pregnancy! (Though they took it off their reduced menu during COVID.) Excellent sandwiches!

    I was skeptical about the hype. After feeling curious I realized they are vegan friendly. My favorite is the greens shallot: add eggplant, no yogurt sauce! So good!

    Roast Beef 1000. Simple, but they nail the bun and the dressing has that zing, coupled with the toasted shallots. Fantastic sandwich.

    Like everyone else, I highly recommend the Roast Beef 1000. I'm a fan of a thicker cut potato chip, so they were just meh for me.
