This ubiquitous and cheerfully logoed sandwich chain is as much a part of Austin as Barton Springs and ACL. The staff at each location is jovial and laid back, and the sandwiches produced are decent and cheap. Listen, anywhere you can get a small egg salad sub for just three bucks wins our approval.

There are the usual toppings: fresh avocado, crispy bacon, veggies that you can believe were alive once. An “Office Favorite” has house-made egg salad, bacon, and cheese; there’s a roast beef with loads of avocado; and an avocado turkey club. One of our favorites is a “New York Italian,” with capicola, ham, salami, cheese, hot peppers, and oregano. It’s refreshing and addictive.

The olives taste a bit tinned, the cheeses don’t venture beyond American or Provolone, bread is on the dry and chewy side, and the hot pastrami’s bland and crumbly. But if you just got away with lunch for well under ten bucks, and had the dude behind the counter with the long hair and smiley-face T-shirt cheerfully tell you his life story while making your sandwich, you can come away pretty happy—especially knowing that you’re supporting such an active community philanthropist and its Turkey Trot endeavors.
