Local business Sandwich Sandwich has won gold at a competition dubbed the industry's equivalent of the Oscars. Nicknamed the Sammies, the Sandwich and Food To Go Industry Awards has also nominated the family-run business, which aims to be bigger than Subway one day, for a platinum award.
Sandwich Sandwich has built a name for itself over more than a decade for its incredibly large sandwiches that are 'works of art', recognisable by their perfect cross sections and cost-effective prices. Founded in 2010 by restauranteur Nicholas Kleiner, it began as the Cotham Sandwich Co. next to his restaurant Juniper and has since grown to five sites across the city, with this year making ten years of a flagship store on Baldwin Street.
Each sandwich is made to order and jam-packed with thick, distinguishable layers that use locally sourced meat from one farmer in Shirehampton. Each store opens every weekday at 7am and serves non-stop until 3pm and typically has queues out of the door every lunchtime.
