From homemade peanut butter ones to Subway or Schlotzky’s, everyone is familiar with sandwiches. But the recently opened East Hampton Sandwich Co., located by The Star, is upping the local sandwich game.

East Hampton Sandwich Company’s modern and sleek interior entices customers along with their sandwiches.

With many food choices on the menu to order, like the Sweet Chicken Parm sandwich, Honey Grilled Chicken sandwich, both served with sweet potato fries and a soda almost everyone will find something they like. The prices are reasonable with a chicken sandwich costing $8.95 and a turkey sandwich costing $9.95, with all the food amazing.

The Sweet Chicken Parm featured chicken breast, pecorino, melted provolone, basil, and marinara. The chicken was cooked really well, and the pecorino and provolone worked really well together. However, the best part of the sandwich was the delicious marinara sauce.

The Honey Grilled Chicken sandwich is also worth a try as it’s a hit as the herb-marinated chicken breast works very well with the shredded romaine and balsamic onion relish. The chicken was cooked well and the balsamic relish perfectly balanced the sweetness of the chicken.

Ordered with each sandwich were sweet potato fries were a welcome addition as they were crispy and had a really good flavor. The only complaint about the whole experience was the lemonade with lemon seeds constantly having to be picked out.

Beyond that one beverage flaw, there’s plenty to like about the East Hampton Sandwich Co. as the staff is helpful and lines move fairly quick. From it’s great food and welcoming environment, this is a great place to visit with friends and family.
