BEST TOASTED SUBS HANDS DOWN. Biiig fan of Cheba Hut, used to get it all the time in Denver and was delighted to realize they made it to MKE. Two things that were comforting, the staff and interiors were completely reminiscent of the Denver vibes! Couple of laid back college kids working. Best sandwich is the White Widow (grilled chicken, pickle, bacon, ranch, other tasty things) and you have to try their garlic herb bread! Love their size choices too, the "nug" id a 4 in sub and the perfect size to eat with a bag of chips and not get too full! Don't forget to try their desserts! The Rice Krispies are actually insane. Shoutout to the nice employee who gave me one on the house :). I'm giving it 5 stars because Cheba Hut deserves it - but I will say the location is not ideal. It felt a little seedy which is a bummer because I frequented the area 15 years ago in college and don't recall it being quite like this, but maybe I was naive. read more

Cheba Hut Toasted Subs - Pretzel Nugs Nachos - Bars Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Favorite sub shop of all time! First enjoyed going in Madison when I was in college, was so happy when we finally got locations in Milwaukee. Vibes are great - very stoner-esque. The subs are amazing- my favorite are the Thai stick and the chronic. Soooo many available toppings and sauces. Old school kool aid machines. If they have the fruity pebble crispy bars those are a must! Friendly and welcoming staff as well :) read more

The first time I tried their subs, it has stayed my favorite spot on the Eastside. I get different variations of it, always turns out really good. I am a big fan of the bread. I used to love to get the kool aid. I love eating here too cause the inside is 420 themed and has cool drawings on the wall. I've been here for a happy hour special during the week and it was decently priced drinks. Always young workers but they are nice. read more

A great place to grab unique subs. I ordered the French dip, and my friend for their take on a grilled cheese. We also split their nachos- which is the late night munchers dream come true. Do yourself a favor, have a little sweet treat or your greens and then order your current craving. read more

If you love a good sub, you've got to try Cheba Hut (if you haven't already). These sandwiches hit the spot and packed a serious flavor punch. I love how you can get a 4" sub - my go to for beach days. They have six tasty vegetarian sub options and could probably make whatever combo you were in the mood for. They also wrap subs in foil to keep them toasted if you order pick up or to go. Inside you'll also find a Kool-Aid drink dispenser! And a bar at the front of the house. The guy who took my order/payment was so nice, patient and helpful. If you do during lunch hour be prepared for a slight wait-this place can get slammed. Oh yeah they have free parking too in a busy part of the city. read more

This place has been on my radar for awhile. Love sub sandwiches and loved the variety. This place is definitely a vibe. Their menu is huge and there's a nice size bar if you wanna hang and get drinks. As far as N/A drinks..this is the first time I've seen koolaid in a restaurant and I'll tell you right now, I am a fan! Koolaid with my sub completes the meal, we'll be back for sure ! read more

I've now ordered from Cheba Hut a couple of times and enjoyed all the veggie options, hot and cold, that they offer. It's rare to have so many choices so that's an immediate plus. I stopped by in person recently in need of post-fasting food for my partner. The 5-0 called out to him in his famished state and I got him a huge sandwich which has become a new favorite for him. I tried the tuna melt, which was really good. I was surprised by the restaurant itself. I had no idea that they had such a large space, a full bar and expansive hours. Now I know where to go after a show. The sandwiches are a tad expensive, but what isn't these days? read more

The online reviews and such seemed pretty good for Cheba Hut but I wasn't sure what to expect. They have a marijuana theme and stuffed-looking toasted sandwiches. They have their own "shake" seasoning that comes standard on most of the sandwiches along with their house dressing. They have a bar so the experience is elevated a little bit above the average sub shop. The menu looked appetizing so I decided to go. You order at the counter and if you're dining in they bring the food out to you. I came on a Saturday afternoon and there were a few people at tables and several others at the bar. This location is near UWM and seems popular with the student crowd. I had the Kali Mist without the bacon. I was pretty hungry and I'm glad I got the 8" ("pinner") sandwich. The 12" ("blunt") would have been too much. The sandwich was a little bit overstuffed to the point of stuff falling out, but it was good. I liked that the pickle spear was right in the sandwich. The flavors complemented each other well. Maybe next time I would ask for a lighter hand with the chipotle mayo. I like that there were multiple vegetarian options as well, many of them featuring portobello mushrooms. The menu also features a couple of local favorites by location. Cheba Hut is open late and has a selection of "munchies" like cheese bread or a bowl of meatballs with sauce. Sometimes that's what you want most in the world. read more

Very good BYOSandwich! Positives: garlic bread, fresh ingredients Negatives: 13$ after tax and tip for 8 in sandwich- pricey, not enough toppings like 1 tomato for whole sandwich and crumbles of jalapeño and peppers, not spicy enough, 15 minute wait for sandwich not at rush hour Rec: add more toppings and add pesto sauce to menu, speed up how quickly sandwich's are made read more

Cheba Hut Toasted Subs - Salami prosciutto garlic bread Sammie with chipotle mayo side - Bars Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

I tried a 4 inch AK-47 (French Dip) which had Roast beef, portobello, onions, shrooms, double provolone and Shake, served with Au Jus on the side. It was delicious! I also tried the Magic Mushroom (Teriyaki Shroom) which was great! My husband had the 4 inch Chronic (BBQ Roast Beef) and the Kali Mist (Spicy Club). He loved both of them! We tried several munchies including the Loaded Not'Chos and a couple Bowl O' Balls- one Teriyaki and one Greek. We loved the Teriyaki one. There is a full bar available with specialty drinks including the Dirty Hippie, Ms Parker and Cheba Rita. If you're in the mood for a 'Toasted' Sub and munchies, give this place a try! read more

I stopped at Cheba Hut to get a quick bite before a movie I had near by. The menu is reasonably large and the items are diverse if you're adventurous. Unfortunately for me, I'm kind of a picky eater and usually end up removing most veggies. I ordered a four inch La Canna (Italian) because I didn't want to waste it if I didn't like it and had the least amount of stuff to remove (onions, tomatoes, pickles). What was left was the ham, salami, prosciutto, provolone, black olives, lettuce, shake (oregano and parmesan), and house (vinegar and oil). For what I had I thought the sub was very good. The vinegar didn't overpower like I was afraid it would and the bread was nicely toasted. I was eating in a dark car while driving, so I couldn't see the black olives and wasn't sure for a while that they were even on there, but eventually I was able to taste them. Maybe a little more black olive would have been appreciated. I wish I had gotten a larger size, but will next time. read more

I wrote a schathing review of this place a couple of years ago. My review was met with a response saying they had addressed the issue. I am reposting to say this is my favorite sub shop in all of MIlwaukee. The bread is really, really good. The toppings are well balanced. They give you a good amount of fillings. The dressings are also now evenly balanced. There is no loud music blaring. I can actually bring friends and we converse. The staff is friendly and attentive. This place went from being on my shyte list to my favorite. I would suggest asking for the parmsan on the side, but that's personal preference. This is a great example of a business listening to its customers. I can't recomment it enough. read more

We stopped here today because they have a full service bar. We wanted drinks and they have a lot of great choices which include their happy hour drinks until 9pm. Great music playing in the background. There is a food menu. Will try it next time. But if you're looking for great cocktails, check them out! read more

Had a great visit here last week. Great subs, vibe, art work, incredible mural & the best bartender in town Cat

This is a pretty cool spot. The sandwiches are divine! So good, great flavor combos, a delightful vinegar house dressing. We split a Midwest Best. I like that they come in three sizes: 4-inch "nug," an 8-inch "pinner," and a 12-inch "blunt." While we were there they did a brisk takeaway business but we dined in. The space is so nice with lots of windows facing Oakland and Locust. In the summer they will throw open the garage doors and make use of the little patio Blaze put in. It's clean, the restrooms are gender neutral, and they have a decent little bar with fantastic signature drinks. The beer selection is what you'd expect for a college bar--the local breweries are represented but then you also get your bargain beers of Busch Lite and Hamm's. Staff is super friendly. The decor is fun--punny stoner humor. read more

Got it to go! Ordered the Apollo 13 (Greek Chicken) and thought it was so good. I find it is so hard to get Greek food in Milwaukee and this was such a pleasant surprise having such great Greek flavor! My food was ready quickly and it was easy to pick up in the back of the restaurant. I was surprised when I walked in that it seemed to have a full bar and people hanging out there but overall the vibe seemed cool, just likely a little young for me. Will be ordering for pick up again! read more

Food is great, service is great, atmosphere is USUALLY great. Last 3 times I've eaten here there has been a man waking around the restaurant asking people for money. Nobody likes being shaken down for cash while they're trying to eat. The employees didn't do anything about any of the times I was there. Won't be returning until the issue is fixed. read more

I had a Jamaican Red Sandwich and it feels as if there is a real Jamaican man growing inside of me. Also there were no pickles on my sandwich. read more

Sandwiches are 5/5. But every time we go here the music is blasting bad rap by the bar area, can't stay even though we'd like to get some beers. No bartender either? It's 5 on a Friday... read more

My parents have been going on and on about this place for weeks and I finally went today. Boy am I glad did. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by friendly staff members. It wasn't overly crowded and as we had ordered online we simply went to the counter and they brought our food out straight away. The atmosphere was pleasant and the decor was very interesting and creative. But what really won me over was the food itself. I ordered the White Widow on garlic bread and added jalapeños. A. Maz. Ing!!! Do yourself a favor and just go. I've been all around the country trying all sorts of food and to ME, this place slaps. read more

Waited 30 minutes for a sandwich. There was a large order but I don't think it should take more than half an hour to get a single sub.

Best sandwiches in the City! Wide variety and the fatty blunts are big enough for the severest case of munchies!!

First and foremost, this place ain't cheap, my wife, me and my sons bill was $50.00 with tip. I ordered a 12 inch toasted Midwest Club sub, fountain drink and chips. My wife got the 8 inch beef and mushroom sub with a fountain drink, we shared a chip. My son ordered a 12 inch sub, I forgot the sub type, fountain drink and chips. Like I said the place is high as Dick's Hat Band, but I was pretty full and I felt like I got a decent value. I likely wouldn't order such a big sub on my next trip, but I was pretty hungry last night. My son raved and ripped about this place and while he hyped it up a tad high, the subs were good and quite tasty. I won't stop going to Cousins, but if it's a late night and Cousins is closed, I'd come to Cheba Hut. read more

Cheeba Hut on Locust and Oakland is the best sub shop in Milwaukee. Also, the place has an awesome atmosphere, staff and music!!!!!!!!!!

9/12/23 2pm. Sat at the bar for 15 minutes with 0 service before I finally got up to the order area and asked if there was a bartender, which there wasn't. It would've been nice if one of the employees would've had the common sense to let the people waiting at the bar that there isn't a bartender today. Or maybe put a sign at the bar saying bar closed? I wasn't the only one waiting for awhile to be served at the bar. Was annoying to have my time wasted like that. I've dealt with a lot of really cool and nice employees there in the past but it's seems like those ones are gone or weren't working today. The employee working the cash register couldn't give a shit and clearly saw us sitting at the bar waiting for service. Place seems to be dying lately. read more

We tried Cheba Hut about three weeks ago because of the large variety of vegetarian options. We have now probably ordered from here about 6 times since then. The nachos were exceptionally dank. I dream about the Magic Mushroom more nights than I care to admit. The Hot Box cocktail was also very good if you like jalapeños. read more

Quality over Quantity! These sandwich artists really know how to make A sandwich. The sign when you order says sandwiches take time and they are worth it! They deliver excellent service and very interesting they cater to everyone I'm not A stoner but the fact they have kool-aid is amazing, the scenery is great 80's movies cameos everywhere. Now the seller the food, I got the spicy Italian and my significant other had the beef. The Spicy Italian was in fact spicy I was sweating by the end of the sandwich but the taste of the sauce they put in the sandwiches made me muscle through. The toasted bun had A great crisp and ingredients edge to edge so the first bite was as good as the last! The roast beef was also an excellent pick the au gus for the beef was filled with spices and flavor each bite I ate ever was packed with everything you crave in a sandwich 10/10 would recommend read more

I've never gone to the actual location, but have gotten Door Dash deliveries twice from this location. I've got to say, the food is amazing! There is a multitude of options to choose from and each one is special in its own way. The flavors also seem very exclusive and can't be found else where. It seems Cheba Hut puts its own spin on the classics, which is very refreshing. The only downside is the price as spending $14 on a sub seems a bit exorbitant. BUT if the food tastes good, I would fork over the money. read more

So my business associate and I were rolling around the east side of Milwaukee checking on a few of our investments. We worked up quit the appetite. While stopped at the intersection of N. Oakland Ave. and W. Locust St. we noticed a nice little joint called The Cheba Hut. There were a few interesting characters walking in and out of it. We both looked at each other and said, "let's check this place out!" Upon opening the front doors and walking down the long hallway to get to the service counter one couldn't help but notice the millions of marijuana themed art work and stickers. The extremely creative menu is marijuana themed. The place was rocking with a very upbeat vibe. The employees were very polite, helpful, and happy...what is really in these subs!!! I ordered the AK-47 and Pretzel Nugs it was AWESOME and DELICIOUS AF!!! The food was prepared well and delivered to out table. I am sure weather you are sober or high as shit you will have a culinary experience of a lifetime! We will most def be back for more Cheba Hut! read more

I came Saturday (6/25) a little after midnight all the way from Kenosha w a group of friends, the place says open until 2:30 AM on Google, Apple Maps, & their own website. We got there & the doors were locked, place was filled with employees cleaning up. When we tried the door & saw it was locked, one employee looked at us & shook his head. There was no sign or anything saying why it was closed over two hours early & there were plenty of other customers trying to get in as well. We were very upset & ended up going to Ian's pizza. If you're looking for late night food that really hits the spot, go to Ian's Pizza don't bother gambling with this place. read more

I have "tried" this place twice. First time was shortly after they opened. The driest sub roll I've ever had. It probably didn't help that they literally forgot to include the mayo I asked them to add and one other ingredient. Decided to give them another chance today. I walked in at 2PM and the music was blasting at ear damaging decibels. Maybe the staff likes that? I can't imagine a customer would. I turned around and left, never to return. read more

Tasted exactly like Potbelly but costs more. I like Potbelly so I'll just go there next time.

I ordered food through the restaurant's website for delivery. I was told our food was delivered but it never arrived. I called and was told I had to contact Doordash.. but because I ordered through the restaurant and they outsource the delivery through Doordash they had no control over it. I asked for a refund and said I would receive one...that was 6 Days ago and have yet to receive it read more

Staff is really nice, but you will wait a long time for food. We ordered 2 salads and waited well over 30 minutes, they weren't busy and the salads didn't have all the toppings. There is no sense of urgency to get food out. Doesn't seem to be any management or proper training. If you just want to chill because you have no where to go and no time schedule this is the place for you. Love Cheba Hut, but not this one. read more
