    Counter with menu minus the specials.

    Need a sandwich you could make at home? If so then you are home. I travel for work and don't have the option but today I was feeling a sammich. City Sandwich looks to be a mom & pop local favorite as there were a few customers coming through but not a normal lunch crowd for a downtown business area. Staff was nice, sandwich was made to order and in about 5 minutes. Here's my three things. 1) Basic menu with most sandwiches being ones you could make at home. 4 bread options and they have some additional sides other than chips. Couple of specials help brighten the menu. 2) Location is great and not crowded so easy to get a sammich. This is a sandwich shop and not a deli. Yes, there is a difference. 3) If you like the hits ( aka the pop music of sandwiches) then you are home.

    Classic American sandwiches that are piled thick and delicious! Great location in City Center and thoughtful service.

    Amazing sandwiches!!! They use fresh ingredients, delicious bread and I love their Italian dressing. The portions are HUGE!

    City Sandwich Company sandwiches are awesome. Being a huge fan of New York pastrami and corned beef sandwiches, I thoroughly enjoy City Sandwich Company sandwiches. I typically order the #9 (Pastrami, Onion, Mustard and Provolone on Rye bread). It's fabulous. She is generous with the meat and the bread is soft and delicious. Great place for lunch, or whenever you want fantastic sandwich. You can dine in or take-out. Plenty of street parking. You may have to pay for parking during business hours.

    I have been here a couple of times, and there is a reason why. The sandwiches are some of the best you can find in the metro area in my opinion. This is a small space, but it's decorated really neat. They have a pretty large menu, but are famous for their egg salad I am told, I will get that next time. I came in for a pastrami sandwich but had my dreams crushed when she told me they were out! I went with a turkey and ham on sourdough, and let me tell you... they stack these sandwiches! I could hardly fit it in my mouth! The ingredients are fresh, the bread is fresh, and the quality is just exceptional. I had a cup of chicken wild rice soup to go with it and the soup was so good as well! If you're in the area you gotta stop in!

    Went to City Sandwich for a lunch meeting and was stunned by how busy the place was for a Monday at noon in Vancouver. They could have benefited from a revolving door there were so many people coming and going! That said, I'm unsure what the hype is about. It's fine food, but nothing special enough to draw that kind of crowd. Staff interaction was awkward from the get-go. First, I approached the counter and was told to wait a moment until the cashier was finished writing the previous ticket. No problem. Before the first person could finish their work, someone else came to take my order. I asked for a basic sandwich from their menu on sourdough. Those basic details were quickly forgotten. The staffer tried repeating my order to me three times and got it wrong each time. Finally, a cook told the front of house staff to forget it because the kitchen heard my order and was already make it. The food was fresh but expensive. I had the #5 Italy just by itself and the total was more than $14 plus tip. My friend only ate half of his sandwich and they wrapped the rest for him in a to-go wrapper. Better than a box in my mind. Sitting down to eat, the tables were old and had major wobbles to them. The ones that didn't wobble had wads of napkins jammed under their feet. Not the best dining experience. Also - I don't know the story behind it - but there's a big mirror and a mannequin on one wall and a mural of the Twin Towers on the other wall? No idea what that's about.

    The best sandwiches in town, and the ladies are so sweet. I could eat here every single day. The sourdough bread is like a magical pillow of carby goodness. Don't sleep on it!

    #5 Italian sandwich on sourdough with a soda will put you out $18.50 before tipping. Absolutely delicious sandwich, fresh ingredients, and cozy environment. Wish it wasn't this pricey. Happy to support local establishments with quality food and service.

    Couldn't resist -- I took a selfie while waiting for my egg salad sandwich

    One of the best sandwich shops in town. A little expensive, but the portions are very generous.

    I met up with a good friend for a coffee catch up and we decided to extend our gathering into lunch…read moreand she suggested Pacific House. It was relatively quiet for a Thursday at noon, but the area is undergoing major street improvements which is likely to affect crowds. It was open seating and we had plenty of choices to choose from. Service was prompt and guardedly friendly. I ordered the nachos because, when faced with a choice that includes nachos, I always choose nachos. They were on the cold side. As I got deeper into the nachos, I encountered a grey, slimy mush which I scraped off and ate around. We didn't have the menus any longer and I couldn't recall if it had beans or meat. I didn't mention it to our server because I wasn't able to look at the menu until I got home. I realize now that was supposed to be the guacamole. I'm all for reducing food waste and I know avocados are expensive, but this was not the nacho dish I thought I was paying for and not something I would want to eat again. We split our bill in half and noticed that there was an additional credit card surcharge on each of our slips. It was not called out to us when the we paid and neither of us could recall seeing that charge specified on the menu, but we didn't look that closely. Considering the other positive reviews, it's possible we hit an off day, but given our experience it's not likely I will return.

    We came into Pacific House for Happy Hour. It was wide open and there were lots of spots to sit…read more The service was great, we had our drinks fast. The old fashioned was smooth and tasty! We fried the fried broccoli. It was good, but it was way more food than we could eat! Great food, great service!

    I am absolutely loving exploring the area around my new home!…read more About two blocks away is Uptown Barrel Room, and I think I may have just found my new favorite neighborhood spot. It's close enough to walk to, which makes it even better. Honestly, every time I walk through the door, I almost want to start singing the Cheers theme song. This is now my third visit, and each time I've had a great experience. The crowd is incredibly friendly, and there's just something about this place that makes you feel welcome. On my first visit, I sat at the bar and met Randi, the bartender. She is absolutely amazing! She knows everyone by name and has that wonderful ability to make you feel like you've been coming there forever. I started with the calamari, and Randi set me up with some chipotle mayo for dipping. Excellent choice! I finished with the combination pizza. At first, I thought the crust was sourdough, but I was told it's actually a bagel crust. Regardless of what you call it, it was absolutely delicious! My second visit was about a week and a half later. I sat at the bar again, and Randi looked at me, smiled, and said, "Tony, right?" Now THAT is pretty amazing! Remembering my name after only one previous visit--and with a week and a half between visits--is exactly the kind of personal touch that makes a place special. Of course, I had to order the calamari again. This time I also tried the fried chicken. And if you're looking for a big portion, this is definitely worth checking out! For my third visit, I brought a couple of friends along. Candace took great care of us and did an amazing job as well. We started with the Italian meatball soup, and it was phenomenal. We also tried the fajita tacos, and they were absolutely delicious. While sitting at a regular table this time, I noticed some pretty impressive accolades on the wall. Uptown Barrel Room was named Best Wine Bar and Best Seafood in 2023, and Best Wine Bar again in 2024. It's always fun finding those little neighborhood gems, especially when you're new to an area. For me, Uptown Barrel Room has quickly become one of those places where you can walk in, see friendly faces, enjoy some great food, and feel like you belong. If you're in the area, go in and give it a try. You will not be sorry! And if you see me sitting at the bar, just come say hi. Apparently, Randi already knows my name. Cheers to discovering new places and making new friends!
