My go to sandwich spot I get the big bear with no tomatoes and add bacon with Italian dressing Thank me after you read this review and realize how unbelievably good their sandwiches are Im not gonna lie their hours conflict with my work schedule but any opportunity I get to come here with my family, or girlfriend I absolutely cherish it This isn't a place that should be a "well kept secret" I think anyone coming thru the post falls area should stop by and experience it for themselves 10/10 always, you guys are awesome

The people working are so nice and they work so fast. Their #7 is my most favorite sandwich on this planet. Highly recommend!! There’s a reason why they have a crowd during lunch

YUMM! We had errands in Post Falls and wanted to try somewhere new and we are SO glad we did! I order the TBR (Turkey Bacon Ranch) and he ordered the Club. I also had the roasted red pepper and smoked gouda soup. Absolutely delucious. We were only able to eat half of a sandwich in one sitting. I recommend ordering any sandwich with bacon. Their bacon was delicious and perfectly smoked and cooked! We will be back.
