This is one of Winnipeg’s top sandwich shops, a pressed-sandwich destination that famously serves sandwiches starting at $8.99 (it’s extra for premium add-ons like goat cheese or extra sauces). Complete your meal with the popular soup and coco power smoothies.
Ira’s Deli
$$$ | (204) 949-1116 | WEBSITE
Ira’s Deli is a sandwich shop in Winnipeg that’s doing things a bit differently. It has generous servings, no delivery fees, and a catering menu that starts at $12 per person with tax included. Every item, from the huge fresh sandwiches to the dainties that come in great variety, is prepared with professional service.
Subway
$ | (204) 940-5540 | WEBSITE
Subway is a quick-service sandwich shop in Winnipeg with a friendly team (they also maintain a bright, clean dining room with large south-facing windows). The offerings cover fresh vegetables, toppings, and baked bread, like customizable subs prepared at a well-stocked work station. The overall experience is positive, despite minor issues like occasional uncleanliness or early closure.
The staff, especially the employee handling online orders at 3 am, serves customers with care, earning recognition for their dedication. While loud music can sometimes be off-putting, the restaurant’s clean environment and plentiful parking create a pleasant visit. Customers appreciate the flexibility of online ordering, such as picking up one or multiple subs at a time.
Quiznos
$ | (204) 222-9001 | WEBSITE
Quiznos is a sandwich shop in Winnipeg that’s been serving subs for years. The spot offers meatball subs and a classic lobster option among its meals. Some regulars have mentioned feeling like they get more bread than meat in their sandwiches, and a few prefer Subway instead. But the classic lobster dish really stands out—one diner who usually eats different cuisine was surprised by how tasty it was, and they enjoyed many of the flavors here.
Overall, Quiznos provides a variety of choices with mixed feedback.
Hoagie Boyz
After a long search for the perfect hoagie, Hoagie Boyz is the answer in Winnipeg. Expect simple yet amazing sandwiches, plus the kinds of sides you want next to a comfort meal, like the macaroni side salad. The Adam Sandoozle and Italian Standard are unreal favorites in the city, with the Italian Standard offering a great combination of meat, cheese, and toppings. However, the bread can be a letdown.
Despite this, the restaurant is still a great place to dine in or take out, with many people returning regularly, such as once a month for that comfort hoagie. The only downside is that they can get busy with takeout orders, leading to lengthy order delays. The staff is friendly, and the vibe is immaculate in this small hole-in-the-wall spot, though some find it a little pricey.
King + Bannatyne: The Sandwich Shop On The Corner
$$ | (204) 691-9757 | WEBSITE
The team behind this popular Winnipeg spot has opened a casual sandwich shop right on the corner of King and Bannatyne. Beyond their signature brisket sandwich and other amazing options—including gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan choices—they also offer incredible soups and sides, plus the flexibility to grab a quick lunch or sit in their nice atmosphere. The potato salad and house-made pickles come highly recommended, and everything is prepared quickly for those short on time.
Pita Pit
$ | (204) 697-3240 | WEBSITE
A fresh favorite for pita sandwiches has landed in Winnipeg. Pita Pit is all about customizable, well-prepared pitas like the deli club with generous toppings, and warm, fresh pitas with a variety of filling alternatives, including a Gluten-Free option.

Their passion for serving quality food shines through, making this location the best Pita Pit in the city for a satisfying meal with fresh and tasty ingredients.
