Great Sandwich shop, extremely fair pricing. Loads of options and daily specials. Worth a commute.

Stopped in at Shorty’s today for the first time. It was quite busy when I arrived, a line of people waiting to order and people picking up online orders.

Huge selection of sandwiches. Multiple breads and toppings available. I opted for a Holy Smokey with add crispy jalapeΓ±os on a homemade cheese bun. It was a solid sandwich. I also got a bag of chips and a drink, which was around $13. I’ll likely go back and try a few other sandwiches.

Discovered a sandwich shop!

A wide variety of sandwich and breakfast options offered. They make their own bread and have many choices. Toppings were nice and fresh, and they have a lot of different sauces to try.

Got the crispy chicken deluxe and the grilled chicken. Both were good! Prices were good. Lines were a bit long at lunch.

One of THE best sandwich shops in the city. We really enjoyed the Cuban sandwich from their daily special menu. The pulled pork was perfect in texture and taste, and the bread was soft and delicious. Definitely a huge fan!!!

Let me start with saying that I don’t usually like sandwiches… and my mind was absolutely blown! It was so good, the service was super quick even though the line was decently long. They’re so efficient and kind and simply make it a great experience. I had their daily special on Thursday – a crispy chicken in spinach wrap. WOW it was great. All the ingredients were fresh and crisp.

Honestly you can tell when someone loves what they do, and everyone at the shop seemed to love being there.

Thank you for a great lunch and experience. I’ll be back!
