This place has great sandwiches and sweets but the customer service is HORRIBLE. The owner was very rude and unpleasant and almost borderline rascist. He spoke to me as if he was disgusted to answer me. The cashiers in the front are snooty too. Barely say good morning it's like the moment you ask more than one question they get annoyed and short with you. I spent a lot of money with this establishment because their bread is freshly made and very good but lacks customer service , & display g respect to all customer no matter the race , ethnicity. Ambiance is okay. There is seating indoors. read more

This place knows how to make a damn good sandwich. Bread & Spread has been on my radar for a while, but I couldn't seem to find the time to get over to DUMBO. Thankfully, they prioritized my comfort and moved right down the street from me to this Doordash kitchen. The porchetta is just about everything I want from a sandwich. It's stacked high, but not too high, with thin slices of roasted, herby pork belly and provolone. There's pickled red onions for acid and texture, arugula to freshen it all up, and the excellent ciabatta is swabbed with a red pepper jam that ties it all together. Someone thought very deeply about balance, and flavor, and I will be eating this sandwich on a regular basis. It comes in at $16 + tax and tip (not cheap), but they also threw some unexpected fries in there, which was a nice bonus. I don't think they did that just for me, so you'll probably get them too. The space is a bit nondescript, but they have a surprising amount of seating with big windows and bright natural light, including a decent view of the street. The folks who bring you your food are nice enough, and the Doordash kitchen thing is pretty convenient because you can pick up a couple types of food if for some reason your family doesn't want DELICIOUS SANDWICHES (Parm is in here too). read more

When I heard they moved to a new location (now in Downtown Brooklyn), I was worried that they would suffer a decline in quality but I'm happy to report that's not the case. Sandwiches are as good as ever, prices remain reasonable, and they kept their menu the same, as far as I can tell! They now do pickup and delivery only (you need to order through their website); I miss when they had their own storefront in Dumbo but the new one does come with some benefits (more seating, a bathroom). So far, I have tried their breakfast, porchetta, and short rib sandwiches and all are delicious. Def recommend getting the aji verde on the breakfast sandwich (all ingredients came together well; I wish the eggs cooked more runny instead of hard, but that's a personal preference). Porchetta sandwich tastes a bit like an elevated pizza in sandwich form, and the beef short rib is unique and very flavorful. Not sure I can choose a favorite! read more

Delicious sandwich! Fresh ingredients. Definitely come back for another menu next time.

Food: The breakfast sandwich is delicious and high quality here! Breakfast sandwiches come with two eggs, arugula, tomato and your choice of bread, cheese, meat and a spread. They also have a variety of other sandwiches but their menu is small and simple. I would definitely come back to try their other sandwiches. Service: Staff are friendly. There's not much to say about service because it's a self-serve spot after you order and get your food. Water and condiments are in the counter and you help yourself to everything. Ambiance: The place is small with only a few tables for seating. Not a good spot for large groups. Overall, I would recommend this sandwich spot! read more

The food and the service were great. They really care about food here. If you like sandwiches, come here.

I tried Bread & Spread when they had a storefront over a year ago i remember throughly enjoying my sandwich so i wanted to return since my doctor is in the area. I was surprised to see that their new location is a DoorDash ghost kitchen and honestly was very confused trying to the find the place as none of the kiosk in the ghost kitchen feature bread and spread and there's no sign stating they're operating in the facility. The woman at the desk asked me what I was looking for and I showed her bread and spread and she confirmed they do operate out of this location but I have to make my order through the bread and spread website. I asked her how long it would take and she let me know earlier sandwiches were taking 30+ minutes but she doesn't know how long now. I placed an order online and they uncharge cheese for 2.00 and bacon for an additional 2.50, on top of 8.00 for the base egg sandwich but for pickup they also add an automatic tip of 10% which I found kinda strange and outrageous on top of also paying platform fees along with the taxes so the bacon egg and cheese came out to 16.85 which is honestly insane for a breakfast sandwich. I noticed it came with a hash brown now which I guess is a way to try to justify to high price tag but upon inspection the hash brown was drowning in grease which was a major turn off it also means that whoever fried it didn't fry the hash brown correctly and the oil wasn't hot enough when they dropped it in. My sandwich also barely had bacon, you could barely taste bacon I think for 16.85 you should at least have a sufficient amount of bacon especially when you pay an extra 2.50 for it. It says 2 slices but felt more like one slice ripped in half. I took two bites of the greasy hash brown and my fingers were covered in grease and my stomachs started to hurt so I ended up throwing it out + they don't provide napkins. Unfortunately this was a big let down, and I don't this bread & spread will survive for much longer. I only give it 3 stars because overall the ingredients were still pretty fresh but tomato was going a bit soft. read more

Staff was polite and friendly. Excellent lunch spot. I recommend the Short Rib Sandwich.

this review is solely based on the patty melt so i can't speak for the rest, but if the patty is any indication then i'm super good. not a grain of salt detected, incredibly bland and disappointing. shall never stray from daily provisions PM again read more

Honestly probably one of if not the best artisan breakfast sandwich I've had in quite a while. I got the ciabatta bread, chipotle mayo, and turkey bacon. Also came with a hash brown that I didn't know about but was perfectly crispy. 10/10 def ordering again! Fyi- I don't know if they are under construction or something but did not have a store front. Ordered from a QR code sign and picked up at a window so there's no seating read more

No Vietnamese techniques are applied to this Vietnamese sandwich. The little meat to overwhelming vegetable ratio is extremely disappointing. To make it worse, the vegetables are poorly pickled too. Felt like I was eating carrots straight out of the ground, which is not a Banh Mi trait. read more

I tried Bread & Spread for lunch while in Brooklyn. It was a cozy but small interior and possibly better for picking up an order and eating it outside by the water when it's nice out. It can get pretty crowded during peak lunch hours, though. The sandwhiches all looked delicious and it was hard to pick just one to order. I got the Turkey sandwhich in the end and enjoyed it a lot. I'd definitely come back to try their banh mi sandwhich in the future! read more

Just had to give a review: John cooked our Thanksgiving lunch for my job. Did a great job, food was of high standard and there was so much food. Have to give a shout out for the turkey, stuffing and mac and cheese they were out of this world. He came and set everything up, great service. He also did a great job when he did lunch for us a month ago. Sandwiches and salads was sublime and the set up was great. I highly recommend Bread & Spread for any functions you have.

The porchetta is a perfect sandwich. I wouldn't change anything about it. The ciabatta is easy to bite into. The sweet bell pepper jam + cheese + pickled red onion all complement each other and round out the flavors. The pork is chopped up well and is evenly distributed so chunks aren't all coming out at once. It also was such a clean sandwich to eat - like nothing dripping and barely any crumbs. read more

I recently dropped by Bread & Spread for a quick bite during lunch time. It's a small - but cozy - shop. I ordered a Breakfast Sandwich, which had eggs, arugula, tomatoes, avocado, turkey bacon, American cheese, and chipotle mayo on a multigrain bread. Service was quick, and I had my sandwich within minutes of sitting down. The sandwich was filling and had great flavor, but the eggs were a bit too runny for my taste. However, I did appreciate that the bread slices were thick enough that they didn't get easily soggy by all the ingredients. read more

Bread & Spread is a small sandwich restaurant in Dumbo. They have a few tables inside but I enjoy taking the sandwich to-go and eating it by the water which is a ~5 min walk away. I got the BLT which also comes with chips on the side. It wasn't the best BLT I've ever had and for $12, it's not necessarily "cheap", but it's a good option if you want a quick bite in the area. read more

Great sandwich spot in the Dumbo neighborhood. Very busy during lunch hours and the line can go out the door sometimes, granted it is a small spot. There's some seating but it is a tight space. To beat the wait, sometimes I would order online or call ahead. They offer a cash discount. They offer a handful of sandwiches but I've only tried their chicken banh mi, which is absolutely as good as the ones from authentic Vietnamese spots. I did had my doubts going in -- my exact thoughts were ... well, what does an American sandwich spot know about banh mi? I didn't go in expecting authentic taste but I was surprised by the first bite. The pickled radish and carrots were to my liking and the chicken is different from the usual protein in a banh mi but nevertheless, very flavorful and not dry at all. Not bad for a $10 sandwich, which is cheap for the Dumbo food scene. read more

I paid $18 for one of the worst sandwiches I have had in a long time. I got the cheese steak. All you need to do is look at the picture I attached to my review to know this is nothing like a cheese steak. They did not even use any of the same ingredients! Instead of the classic cheesesteak meat (beefsteak) or the most delicious version (ribeye) they used short rib. There were no onions or peppers. It was dry and there was barely any meat or cheese on it. Mostly just mediocre bread. Please call this sandwich something else because it is not a cheesesteak. Also I am not a chip person and they did not offer my the option to have any other side. I would have ordered fries or something else if given the option. I do not understand why this place has good reviews. The interior is not even that nice and the staff were not exceptionally friendly. read more

Absolutely the best sandwich place I've ever been to! If you're looking for a place that knows how to do sandwiches right -- this is it. My favorite item is the beef short rib sandwich. The meat is incredibly tender and flavorful, and the ciabatta bread is fresh, soft inside, and perfectly crisp on the outside. You can really taste the quality in every bite. Nothing feels cheap or thrown together -- everything is top-notch. I've tried other items too and they never disappoint, but I keep coming back for that beef short rib. It's just that good. read more

What a good find for breakfast sandwiches. It's quaint, cozy and right under the Brooklyn bridge. This group has captured the essence of breakfast sandwiches in a small arena. The food is cooked on an open grill. They have a choice of ciabatta or multigrain bread. All of which are equally toasted to perfection and a choice of cheese if you desire (who wouldn't get cheese right?) then the add choice or pork or turkey bacon, arugula lettuce, choice of spicy jam or chipotle mayo- tomatoes and avocado! Served hot and steamy, sliced and wrapped in deli paper. It's the best sandwich on this side of the bridge. Thank goodness for the Yelp reviews that helped me find this location. Slamming'!!

Definitely stop by Bread & Spread to start off your morning. Employees are super nice and the sandwiches are great. We ordered ahead of time and picked it up so the entire experience was quick and friendly. We loved it and we're definitely coming back. Breakfast Sandwich: 5/5 We added bacon and chose the aji verde sauce. It was SO GOOD. The arugula makes the sandwich super fresh. Porchetta: 5/5 This was b o m b. It was the perfect combo of savory and sweet (I like things more savory and less sweet). Also had arugula which made it fresh. Pro tip: Order ahead and wait outside (inside is cute but hot). Then grab this sandwich, head toward the water, and eat it there! read more

Great option to cater a business meeting / corporate lunch! Chef John was very easy to work with, provided helpful recommendations, and personally delivered / set up our food ~2 blocks away. Sandwiches (especially the vegetarian options he recommended) were a hit -- super delicious and great variety. There are more options than what's represented on the menu online, so definitely reach out for catering instead of just an online order. Highly recommend if you need local catering in DUMBO! read more

Ok, this place has really good sandwiches. I mean it's something you'd expect if the name has "bread" and "spread" in it. Anyway, it's summer and I've been taking walks from my apartment to BK Bridge Park as my way of not going to the gym but still getting my weekly exercise. I'll usually bring a snack with me (say, like some cut-up watermelons or something healthy). I came across Bread & Spread on one of my walks. It was then and there that these healthy walks to the pier were no longer. Known for their Porchetta Sandwich (thinly sliced kurobuta pork belly with garlic and fennel, picked red onions, arugula, red pepper spread, aged provolone, on ciabatta- $15, which is pretty steep for a sandwich, but, hey, inflation?), I, of course, ordered the signature Porchetta Sandwich. Because, why would I order anything else? Well, actually, I almost went for the Short Rib Sandwich. Instead, I ordered the Breakfast Sandwich (kurobuta ham, cheddar cheese, red pepper jam on ciabatta- $11). Can you believe it? I ordered a second sandwich for myself, and the purpose for my walks to the pier was to shed off those pounds. SHAMELESS. The place isn't big. There are a couple tables and chairs inside and a small table outside. It's probably better to just get it takeaway and stroll down to the pier. The over-enthusiastic guy cashier took my order. I mean I was already pretty excited to try their Porchetta, but the energy this guy was bringing was incredible. He was really friendly and walked me through the build-your-own Breakfast Sandwich which they serve all day. It comes with fried eggs, arugula, and a spread. You can add-on meat and cheese to it. A pro-tip for you. If you pay with cash, you save the 3.5% transaction fee that you otherwise incur using a credit card. There's a Chase Bank across the street if you really want those savings. It didn't take long for them to prepare the two sandwiches (5 minutes max!). Anyway, when I got to the pier, I told myself I was going to eat half the sandwich. But, I literally devoured both pre-cut halves. I'm horrible. A piece of the fatty pork belly fell onto the wax paper and I slurped that up too. I was very thankful that I had the Breakfast Sandwich to nosh on for later. Admittedly, I'm a big eater (duh, again, I ordered TWO sandwiches for myself). They were large portions, and I was "satisfied" even after the first half of the Porchetta. I just couldn't resist eating the other half. I mean I could've and should've. But, knowing that the other half of that juicy sandwich sitting beside me, it didn't stand a chance. Anyway, I digress. I would absolutely come back here to try their Short Rib Sandwich. I don't think I'd get the Breakfast Sandwich because I can get that at my corner bodega (minus the ciabatta). And oh yeah, I'd get the Porchetta again. read more
