Mulfaletta was great. I loved the veggies I too. I would skip the Mozzarella. A little pricy for a sandwich. read more

Waited a while before trying this place and was really happy with the quality. I got the roast beef sandwich and it was both filling and filled with flavor. If you don't like horseradish maybe substitute it for something else but overall it was really good and I'll be back to the other options. read more

Bread Head - Roast beef - Sandwiches Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Bar none, the best sandwiches in LA! Excellent home made bread baked fresh daily. My faves- Try the BLT, Turkey Pesto, meatball sandwich and roast beef. You really can't go wrong. Their cookies are also delish. Staff and ambience are super nice and welcoming. Must try!! read more

Wow. Every single bite of the Combo Grinder was simply heaven. The sandwich was like Parisian bread got married to Jewish deli. Bread was crunchy at every bite. So splendid!!! There were quite a lot of reviews about the cost and size of the sandwich and to be really frank, ($13 for half and $26 for whole) half is already kindve a lot for one person. read more

It's chill and laid back, the food is great and the service is feels right. Not many places make their own bread but this place does and it makes a world of difference. read more

My favorite sandwich place, ever! I love their sandwiches so much. I would avoid the ham and butter one though. It's an excessive amount of butter. Otherwise, I highly recommend this place. I even got some of their sandwiches before leaving for the airport and had them on my flight. I couldn't stay away! read more

I'm obsessed with this place. I used to go when they did grab and go at Mcalls so I was soooo excited when they finally opened. I love the Grinder so much and never want to order anything else. The half is more than enough and the whole is definitely for at least 2 people. Definitely must try spot in SM read more

I love you Bread Head. The food. The ambiance. The staff. Yes. Yes. Yes. Their sandwiches are NUTS. I've been thinking about the one I ate every second of every day. Did y'all change your bread though? Seems different to the one being used when you were at June Shine. read more

The food is fantastic. Ordered a couple of sandwiches to go. Somebody recommended this to me and it is now on my go to list.

Never knew I needed focaccia in my life until Bread Head. They create the perfect sandwich. Thin focaccia. Crispy on the outside. Soft on the inside. We had the mozzarella which is great for vegetarians. Also has the turkey and BLT. Really can't go wrong here. I love that they give you a bottle of hot sauce too! Just know that a half is really a full sandwich for most people. read more

Bread Head - Mozzarella and BLT - Sandwiches Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Ambiance : Clean and charming. The wooden stools by the counter were not comfortable but manageable. Service: Spot on fast and friendly. Food: Hot Ruben Sandwich Swiss cheese needed to be melted more. Not enough pastrami because the sauerkraut took over the flavor. Muffaletta sandwich - Delicious. Enjoyed the olive spread in it. The price for a half sandwich is a bit pricey. I think it's worth $11.00 not $13.00 for the Muffaletta and $12.00 for the Ruben not $14.00. I'm surprised on the price for a FULL sandwich. This doesn't include chips or drinks. It is a great location and I will definitely come back to try the roast beef sandwich when I'm in the neighborhood again. read more

I love this place. Have been a fan since they had their pop up at Juneshine in SM. The mozzarella sandwich is to die for and I have not been disappointed with anything on the menu! Their specials and fun desserts, fruit salad, etc make it worth visiting frequently. My only critique is that the bread has seemed to have gotten thinner and more crispy than before. I imagine the increase in traffic contributes to this, but the bread tasted fresher in the Juneshine days. Still fantastic, though! read more

Bread Head - Turkey sandwich and their apple pie that was a special. So delicious - Sandwiches Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Tried the half ham and butter sandwich and found it so intensely salty that it was inedible. Gave their little chocolate and coffee brownies a try: surprise! Incredibly salty. I think that the chef must have some sort of mineral deficiency. read more

Belated review! There's so much hype around this sandwich place and it did not disappoint!! The sandwiches were very good even with my high expectations. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our sandwiches. It was very busy at lunch but we managed to grab a seat . read more

I love this place!! The BLT is the best BLT I've had in LA by far!! Elle took our order and recommended the club sauce and it was life changing!!! 10/10 I will be back again can't wait read more

i love sandwiches A LOT so i knew it was time to try out bread head since i had heard so much buzz about it online. there was a moderate line when we arrived on a sunday afternoon around 2pm, but it moved quickly. my husband and i decided to split a full size combo grinder. the sandwich came out in about 10 minutes. in hindsight, i'm thinking we should've just split a half because this sandwich was HEFTY. i did not expect there to be so much meat and toppings! i guess i'm used to most places skimping lol, so i consider this a plus. it was a truly delicious sandwich - however my main feedback for this particular one is that there was such a large amount of "wet" toppings, like the tomatoes, peppers, iceberg lettuce, as well as the vinaigrette they added, that the bread started getting soggy rather quickly. and eventually the sandwich became difficult to eat - there just wasn't enough bread to keep the toppings from slipping out and it got too soggy to hold the sandwich together. i still want to try their other sandwiches though so i'll be back! free parking in the back (: read more

I have been wanting to try this sandwich shop for a while and they didn't disappoint. I had the half turkey pesto and it was fabulous, especially the bread which is a wonderfully flavored focaccia bread. Definitely well worth the trip down Montana. read more

I am addicted to their BLT...so tasty! The servers greet you pleasantly and wish a good day on the way out...it is nice to be treated with respect and see a smile. I often order online, and the sandwich, etc. is ALWAYS ready on time. Delicious bread is the key, and the cookies are a nice, sweet touch. Here is a case of an establishment doing what they do well...refreshingly awesome in this day and age! read more

I got the super popular turkey pesto that everyone raves about. Overall was good but not great. The bread was decent but didn't taste very fresh but then again I got the sandwich 1 hour before closing so I'm sure that didn't help. The combination of arugula, avocado and garlic mayo had a good flavor and was not overpowering. I might try the regular Calabrian turkey sandwich next time. read more

Bread Head - Sandwiches Near Me - Santa Monica, California

I was so excited to give this place a try after all the stellar reviews. Not sure what all the hype is about ordered a Cuban and Turkey pesto sandwich. The Cuban was all sauce. I basically tasted nothing else but the Dijon which was smothered all over the Foccacia. The Turkey Pesto was the same. Tasted like pesto and salt, nothing else. All the ingredients tasted fresh but nothing that tasted so amazing which I need to return. Customer service was quick and on point so no issues there. 2 sandwhiches cost $31.98. Doubt I'll be back. I'm sad Bread Head just didn't satisfy the cravings for me. read more

Fantastic sandwiches and THE NICEST people work there. Every employee has been above and beyond friendly and helpful -- I would list names, but maybe they value their privacy. Give the lemonade a try, too. The ice is the best. read more

Solid sandwiches at this place! My family and I were up in Santa Monica visiting all the art museums in LA and we had a hankering for a good sandwich - and Bread Head was just down the street from our hotel. My son got the Turkey Pesto, my wife got the Chicken Salad, and I got the Mozzarella Sandwich! All of them were super yummy! read more

My husband and I stopped by for lunch thinking we'd just grab take away but they have a little parklet so we stayed. Their half sandwiches are definitely big enough for one person, I got the Calabrian Turkey with tomato and my husband got the hot sandwich of the day which was a Cuban. Normally I rate things based on how we both feel but my sandwich was definitely 5 stars, one of the best sandwiches I've had in LA. He didn't love his but he's spoiled by the Cuban sandwiches at our local Cuban restaurant. The Calabrian mayo added such a nice little touch of heat, the iceberg lettuce actually worked perfectly with a cool crunch but the star of the show was the bread, it was just excellent. I only had half of the half and the leftovers were still good later but I will say the sandwiches are best straight away if you can avoid traveling before you have them. Next time maybe we'll split a whole sandwich but I might have to get the same thing again! read more

Wow! Outstanding sandwiches!!! Read about them recently and was going to a screening with my sons at the nearby AERO theater, so we dropped by beforehand to give them a try. We ordered and shared the mozzarella, roast beef and cuban, and each were so frickin delicious!!! Unanimously agreed! Fantastic bread, they bake themselves, very very high quality ingredients, and most of all inventive harmonious recipes that truly make a familiar sandwich sublime and outstanding. Ohmygod, I have to go back asap! read more

We heard all about the sammiches & the lines here, so we arrived around 20 mins after opening, on a weekday. We were 4th in line & there were already at least 8 parties standing or seated, waiting for their orders. Service was really warm & unrushed, esp considering the line grew by at least 9 more people behind us by the time we were placing our orders. We took a bunch of different sammiches to go: Calabrian Turkey - slightly spicy BLT - crispy Nueske's bacon Muffaletta - is that orange zest? Cuban - the daily special Being newbs, we ordered all large sammiches & the cashier was nice to automatically have them all split for us. What we didn't realize til we were handed a super heavy bag was that a large is basically 2 sammiches! So each half of the large was wrapped separately, & cut in half (on the diagonal, like the cool kids do). Packaging was very secure. This was a LOT of food. Like, many meals' worth! Many DELICIOUS meals' worth. Even the next day, after several minutes in the airfryer, the bread crisped right up. I personally love to give a sammich time to get a little soggy with flavor, so imo the only sammich that prob was best eaten fresh was the BLT bc of the perfectly crispy bacon. Their freshly baked bread is fantastic. It's like a thinner focaccia, crispy on all edges. The cold cuts & cheeses & crispy Nueske's bacon are all excellent quality. Each sammich had some element that made it slightly unique & memorable. While we were there, smart people were arriving & walking past the line & up to the register to pick up to-go orders. That's the way to do it! This is the place to come for a fantastic sammich! read more

Every sandwich we've had has been great, but the yuzu pie is soooo goooooodddd!!!!! Would go here every week if the lines weren't as long as they are read more

I found out about Bread Head from Padma's IG and I think she may have scammed me. We ordered the Calabrian Turkey and BLT. While the bacon in the BLT was phenomenal, it was a basic BLT. Nothing special. The calabrian turkey though was a complete disappointment. The focaccia bread was hard, sharp, and completely decimated my mouth while the turkey and cheddar somehow congealed into a cold chalky dense mass. The sandwich was also strangely bland as it consisted of only turkey, cheddar, lettuce, and thousand island sauce? I was hoping for some kick as it was a Calabrian chile sandwich but alas, flavor and spice were nowhere to be found. Overall, for the price, not worth it. read more

I should have come here sooner. BreadHead is the creation of two former Trois Mec chefs. They bake focaccia fresh every day and then top it with top-quality ingredients. They roast the beef for their roast beef sandwich and add stracchino, arugula, horseradish and garlic aioli. Every bite of that horseradish cleared my sinuses! The garlic aioli is delicious AF and completely sexy on that bread. The Muffaletta has salami cotto, mortadella, ham, provolone, swiss and olive salad. It's a little salty from the olives, but I balanced it out with some of the alfalfa sprouts from my husband's Mozzarella sando, which made it just perfect. You can either buy half ($8) or a full sandwich ($14). I highly recommend buying two halfs, so you can sample more flavors. Save room for dessert - they have dark chocolate coffee cookies, $3 for three! Metered street parking out front. They do not take phone orders, but you can order online, though prices have an additional surcharge. I went in-person and placed my order, which was ready relatively quickly. They're only in this location at 9909 S. Santa Monica Blvd. in Beverly Hills until October 16th. Don't know where they will pop up next and am hoping that they will still be close by to me! read more

Stopped by to pick up another sandwich. So very good. They were sold out of roast beef so will have to try again, SOON. I grabbed a muffaletta which was amazing. Slathered in a spicy olive spread, sando perfection. I love the thin excellence of their focaccia. Can't recommend enough. read more

Wanted a quick bite after enjoying a movie at the nearby Aero Theatre. After choosing a few sandwich options, we sat down and ate some high quality focaccia bread and great fillings. On the pricey end but a full sandwich will leave you quite satisfied. Charming bathroom theme as well! read more

I've never received such great service like this, you guys are awesome!! The tuna sandwich was amazing! Also, the fresh baked chocolate chip cookie is next level read more

I have ordered from Bread Head for two large catered lunches and have had rave reviews from everyone, including myself. Online ordering and pick-up are seamless. If you're looking for a smaller portion, you can split the half-size with someone else. The turkey is my favorite. read more

So delicious! Went on a Thursday. Had the special. Yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum. Is that enough words yet????

Can eating a sandwich be a spiritual experiences? This is the question I pondered while eating my Bread Head sandwich. The answer is yes, why yes it can. Never have I so enjoyed a sandwich so much that I have savored and been mindful of each bite. What an experience! Great place to sit and people watch - just as many people stay to savor and enjoy onsite, as those who take their bags to go. Great spot! read more

Probably one of the best sandwiches I have ever had in a while! I got the combo grinder and added garlic mayo. read more

Bread Head - Combo Grinder with garlic mayo - Sandwiches Near Me - Santa Monica, California

This place definitely has a following and a cool guy vibe inside but the sandwiches I feel are trying to be multiple things that they aren't. The sandwich wants to be a Panini, but it also wants to be a regular sandwich and I just couldn't get over the bread texture. I'm a huge bread fan and I don't think that I will be going back. The ingredients were great and I highly suggest testing it out. read more

The bread sucks and the filling is disgusting. Right off the bat, the bread is super thin focaccia, crisped up to the max and honestly pretty stale. If you like this style of sandwich I think you will still be pretty disappointed with the bread. Another draw back - it's their only bread, regardless of the type of sandwich. It falls apart, super scratchy and unpleasant to eat. The filling - we got chicken salad and it was awful. Bits of bone and chicken fat, bland taste and the only other things you get on the sandwich are some sad slices of apple as a consolation prize. I should've taken a picture because this is one of flattest, saddest sandwiches I've had in a while. The layout inside is crowded and hectic. I would not recommend this. All'Antico Vinaio in Venice does this type of sandwich properly but why go all the way down there when Tartine is down the street. Glad I tried this so I never have to think about it again. read more

This place is so popular! Endless number of guests walking through the door! A half size is enough for one person, so if you have a friend with you, get a whole and split it! Fun foodie spot owned by Michelin star chefs. This is a personal preference, but focacia isn't exactly my favorite type of bread, so maybe focacia lovers would love the sandwiches more. read more

Super addition to Montana. Have tried the mozzarella sandwich and the BLT. Can't wait to try more. 1/2 split in two is plenty for 2 people. Order ahead for pickup to avoid the line. read more
