Best sandwiches in Vancouver
By Vancity Buzz
-
Porchetta at Meat & Bread
This powerhouse sandwich spot keeps things simple with their menu, offering daily specials and a couple of favourites, but they’re always slicing their signature porchetta right in front of the omnipresent line so that the meat practically beckons.
-
Pulled Pork at Hubbub
Vancouver’s own sandwich-and-salad mini-chain is a favourite of the lunch crowd, and while it’s pretty hard to go wrong with what you choose from their trim menu, their Pulled Pork sandwich has a devoted following.

Pear, blue brie, and prosciutto baguette at Finch’s
Finch’s is one of the city’s favourite go-to spots for fresh, tasty, stuffed sandwiches on baguettes. Their most iconic offering is the salty, sweet, rich combo of sliced pear, buttery brie, prosciutto, and walnuts–for that added crunch
-
La Grotta del Formaggio
This treasured Italian specialty shop has the art of sandwich-making nailed. Meats are sliced to order on fresh-made bread, and there’s an abundance of veggies and goodies available to pile on, like chopped olives, marinated artichokes, and roasted peppers, for that Italiano zing.
-
Toasted Garden Veggie Sandwich at Tap & Barrel
Stacked high with ingredients that pack a powerful punch (roasted beet, portobello mushroom, goat cheese, tomato, lettuce, and sprouts) this sandwich, on multigrain toast, includes a giant, showstopping crispy onion ring, and not only house mayo but also a schmear of hummus.

Chicken Torta Sub at Duffin’s Donuts
It’s [open 24 hours](http://www.vancitybuzz.com/2015/04/24-hour-restaurants-vancouver-2/). It has one of the most eclectic menus in the city. It’s got “donuts” in the name, but loyalists know there’s much, much more to Duffin’s, including their sandwiches. Their sandwiches represent a terrific meld of cultures, leaning heavily on the Mexican Torta, which is known for offering a variety of ingredients, including often avocado and peppers, on a crusty white sandwich roll
-
Dos Diablos at Burgoo
Though they are known for their killer Cheese Grillers, they really take things to a devilish place with their Dos Diablos, which is basically a white cheddar grilled cheese baguette with chorizo and roasted red peppers.
-
Wholey Cow at Dunn’s Famous
Why have just a bit of cow when you can have the Wholey Cow?! Dunn’s Famous is famous for their Montreal smoked meat sandwiches, but they’ve taken the best of their other deli eats and put them between slices of bread for a pretty awesome creation.

The Chicken “Club” at Railtown Café
This little restaurant has a big following, thanks in no small part to their terrific selection of high-quality salads, soups, and, of course, sandwiches.
