Drove up and immediately was told it's a 15 min wait. Still ordered and waited about 20+ mins. Got home and the order is completely wrong. Barely any meat in the sandwich. Waste of time and money. read more

I'll miss you!!! I thought the service was always polite and I always bought 2 sandwiches as I love the taste so much that I absolutely wanted another. Thank you for years of consistency and God bless your family on their paths of life. read more

Best banh mi sandwich I've had in Denver, will definitely be back again. Wonderful service too.

I've had Lee's in California and they were just okay so I already knew what to expect and it's true, it's just okay. We have ordered several items from banh mi to pate chaud to the steamed buns and everything was just okay. They're not terrible but not the greatest. Everything was edible and decently good - this is a better option than a subway sandwich. However, there are other banh mi options that I like better. But this is one of the only banh mi places I have been to with a drive through so if that's important to you, this is the place to go. Also the sandwich is longer than other banh mi places I have been to. Price wise, they're all the same. Unlike other locations, the staff does not necessarily speak Vietnamese. The owner that packs our banh mi does speak Vietnamese but the employees up front do not necessarily know how. read more

I go just for the viet sandwiches and coffee, the baguettes are actual baguette baguettes lol skinny, moist, chewy, crisp - not like the banh mi banh mi sandwiches I'm used to that are light, airy, fluffy, and crisp with crumbs falling everywhere. I got the #5 grilled pork which had lots of flavor, perfect balance of meat and veggies! I usually ask for extra veggies but not this time. My coffee was filled to the top of the lid, that was nice to see. The sandwich was fresh and hot when I received it and the customer service was good. The Euro sandwiches don't seem very appetizing for me visually so I don't even want to try them. When they're slow, I guess they close earlier than the time listed online. read more

Yay! Feels like I'm back in the Bay Area. Lee's Sandwiches is officially open in Denver of course, you can't go wrong with the banh mi (Asian sandwiches) -- my personal fave are #1 Lee's Combination and #11! Also, IYKYK -- the Ca Phe Sua Da or Vietnamese coffee is a must. It's like crack coffee, literally keeping you up with a jolt of caffeine goodness. They even have bottle sized of the cafe lattes, triple shot, and Thai tea to go. You can buy a lot of stuff in this store (patês, coffee creams, baguettes, coffee beans, pastries and more) read more

First of all, I love that Lee's is open until 9 PM and has a drive-through! Super great option for evening eats. I'm familiar with Lee's from trips to the San Gabriel Valley, where there is a Lee's on every corner. I'm super stoked there's a location in Denver and we finally got a chance to try last night. We went through the drive-through, around 8:40. The person at the window was super friendly and took our order promptly. We ordered shrimp and pork eggrolls, a grilled chicken banh mi, and a grilled pork banh mi. Egg rolls were $6.49 for 5 pieces and sandwiches were $7.99 each. I read other reviews complaining about the prices, but I feel like the prices were very reasonable for banh mi in Denver, especially considering it's 2023 and everything has gone up. Food is just more expensive in Denver compared to California. On the way home, we devoured the hot and crispy egg rolls which were made fresh to order. They were delicious! Each eggroll had a full piece of shrimp, instead of minced shrimp, mixed with the pork. Yum! Our sandwiches were very good and packed full of veggies, including raw onion. The baguette was crispy and had a alluring butter/mayo spread on the bottom. It was so good! I could eat a baguette with that spread for every meal, no lie! Regarding coffee- I'm a huge coffee person. Folks rave about the cafe sua da (Vietnamese coffee) but I personally find their pre-mix overly sweet. I think you gotta try it at least once to figure out your taste preference, but I personally opt for a black iced coffee. It's great taste and quality! They use the "good ice", which is the ice pellets, like Sonic. Vietnamese coffee is always dark French roast, so expect a strong coffee flavor. This is more of a spot to grab and go. This would be a great spot to grab some sandwiches before a hike or a road trip! On a nice day, you could grab some sandwiches and eat at a nearby park. 10/10, I'll definitely be back! read more

We waited a whole year for this place to open since we saw the signs a long time ago but didn't see anything about it online and happened to find out their grand opening was on the 18th. We went pretty early and they gave out gifts for the first 200 people. They were giving samples of their famous viet iced coffee which was nice since we woke up early for this. There were a lot of people and it was very cold outside. The shop itself is pretty small but you're able to see them shape the bread and the sandwiches are made to order. They have a huge variety and lots of baked goods. This location looked like it had a lot more than some of the ones I've seen in California. I've been trying to find a good place for banh mi as well but this one is more pricey than what I'm used to. We ordered the #11 special combo and #6 bbq pork banh mi ($7.99 each) along with 2 large hot viet coffees ($5.95 each). We were satisfied but would probably go back to try some of their other things whenever we're in the area. I would recommend this place for anyone wanting to try an authentic banh mi and viet coffee! read more

A busy and cute drive-thru concept of Lee's. It was good we got there early cause it got pretty busy fast. The Inside was clean and the staff was great! We met the owner, Vu and he was kind and efficient. He made sure we had everything we needed for our large order. The first sandwich itself was delicious and each ingredient was proportioned well. Only thing we forgot was to ask for pate in our Vietnamese opla/egg breakfast sandwich so make sure to ask that if you like Pate! But the bread was fresh, warm and perfectly baked crisp on the outside. A wonderful breakfast/lunch/dinner :D I also got the Avocado smoothie and they put real avocado in it which was yummy to drink! read more

Such a bummer- the long wait is over but alas, not worth the candle burned. Lee's Denver is NOT AT ALL like Lee's in Orange County, CA! The bread here was spongy, chewy and dry. The meat was sparse and not very flavorful, and finally, there was no butter or pate on the one that should have had both- in all, the 2 Bahn mi we ordered were expensive and quite mediocre- the only item remotely reminiscent was the cafe sửa da. read more

We have lived in Colorado since last March 2022. Our daughter and Son in law have missed Lee's in CA so badly they were going to fly back and get some coffee to bring back to CO. Today we found out about Lee's in CO. Needless to say we jumped in our car and went straight to Lee's. We were not disappointed. Excellent beverages, breads, sandwiches. Yes, we got the works!! Lee's-- we will be back!! Thank you. read more

So tasty and friendly staff! Great selection and easy to get through the drive thru. My new favorite place for bahn mi!

This place used to be my go to for bánh mì's until my most recent few visits. The amount of mayonnaise is overwhelming, portion of meat is almost non existent and each bánh mì gets like... 5 pieces of carrots. Unfortunately I probably won't be back read more

I personally have been a huge fan of this Vietnamese sandwich (bahn mi) store chain for years. My extended family is from NorCal and I colleged in SoCal where we are these sandwiches frequently. And the flavor did not disappoint. I got the combination with extra pate and the flavors were amazing. Yes, the sandwiches are smaller than what the average american expects but the flavor was there. The ambiance feels very fast food-chain store but I love it for what it is. The service was fairly good although I'm pretty sure the staff are still learning what is in each sandwich, which is normal for a new place. We also got the coffee which is much better than the prepackaged version. We also got the Thai tea which was extremely concentrated so let the ice melt before drinking too much, too sweet otherwise! Can't wait to make this place a staple on my food rotation. read more

Fresh sandwich with a lot of veggies, meats and Fresh breads. Strong ice coffee is available also.

Food was amazing, so glad Denver has a Lee's. Truly a Vietnamese gem. 100% recommend everyone try their coffee as well.

Fully obsessed with the Vietnamese coffee! Cannot get through my day without it! I have already told several people about this place

This is a great little place puts a creative twist on the traditional sandwich shop. Lee has some Delicious sandwiches, not at all average. There are a couple of tables outside and one inside, too, if memory serves. The owner,Lee, is friendly. We asked about the croissants we saw and he gave us full-sized samples of them while we waited; Oversized, soft and buttery.Arriving just before closing has it's perks ; ) read more

Lee's Sandwiches - $9 for this skimpy banh mi?! - Desserts Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Love the baguettes and sandwiches are yummy and woohoo for the drive through! Boba is solid and sesame balls are delish!!!

Updated *** 12/8/23- what a turnaround. I hadn't planned on going back but my girlfriend wanted a Vietnamese coffee and this place was the only thing open. Glad I did, this place had dramatically improved customer service. Drive through was up and running and the employees seemed well organized and friendly. So happy to see they made these changes. The Bahn me was delicious and the best bread for this sandwich I've had. Unfortunately for them, around the block is some stiff competition and a slightly larger sandwich at a lower price but you will need to go inside to pick up. If you want a quick sandwich to go and some exceptional Vietnamese coffee while staying in the comfort of your car, look no further than Lee's sandwich's. The only thing holding me back from 5 stars is the price is the highest I have ever paid for Bahn mi sandwich. This is a decent sandwich and if it was $7-8 I would have given them 5* based solely off this experience this trip. ---------------------------------- Drove 45 minutes to try this famous place and finally made the trip. Chose to come yesterday.specifically because they claimed to have a drive through. This was what I needed with a broken foot and injury to my shoulders while on crutches. Arrived and the drive through was blocked unloading stuff. I understand they need to resupply but during lunch hours 11-1pm? I left and came back two hours later after running other errands. Drive through still blocked like someone just decided to park the truck there? Please don't advertise drive through if it's not accessible for those of us whom really need it. Normally I prefer to walk in, broken bones change that desire and I felt misled driving across town for this. The Bahn Mi sandwiches were fine, but prices high. I think we are paying a $2 premium for the famous name. Great bread and fantastic coffee, but for $30 I'm accustomed to getting 4-5 sandwiches instead of three. Not really impressed and I guess the high ratings come from those whom have not had many Bahn Mi's before? Maybe I just had a bad couple sandwiches not the normal??? Not sure I would come back unless someone else insisted. I have several other preferred places at a better price and better taste. The food quality seemed fresh so I thought it would be very flavorful, not so much! read more

Finally the California famous west coast Lee's Sandwiches comes to Colorado! They have THE BEST Vietnamese style coffee selections you could ever taste, from iced coffee, to frappe, to hot coffee. A mixture of strong yet sweet coffee flavour, any coffee lover would fall head over heels for Vietnamese coffee. The Vietnamese sammiches AKA Bahn Mi are a delightful taste of French-Vietnamese cuisine. They have over 20+ different sandwiches all with their secret butter and pork paté spread. They even have a little Vietnamese snack section along with Lee's Sandwiches special butter and paté spread to take home. This location has a drive through option and an outside pick up window very convenient for busy people on the go. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended for any foodie, coffee, and sammich lover. read more

Food is fresh and the owner is pretty nice and that grilled pork sandwich is pretty damn good.

I give it a three stars bc... it's not the same Lee's I remember. I think it's been commercialized a lot. Baguette isn't airy soft and fresh as I remember and meat weren't all that seasoned or tasted the same. Wings also lacked seasoning. I'm glad it's here but I have to say having tasted the original Lee's and freshly baked and made sandwiches I once had, it wasn't the same and was disappointed. read more

Went through the drive thru for a breakfast sandwich. Got to talking to the person serving me and he was very helpful and I asked what they were known for and should I try anything and he was so informative and helpful. Bought an extra coffee and pastry and both were great. Haven't had any of their traditional sandwiches but the coffee and breakfast sandwich and pastry were great as well as the service. read more

Fast and easy service. I love the prices and the Combination Bahn Mi is perfect - it tastes original!

This place is definitely my favorite sandwich spot in Denver, considering the price and the food is so consistent. I love that it's a drive-thru, and whenever I'm passing by for work I choose it as an option. BBQ pork sandwich for less than 9 bucks? What a little hidden treat in Denver. I'm there every week read more

I got a passion fruit drink and the cured pork sandwich no jalapeños. First off the drink is amazing. Usually when I order passion fruit, I get wimpy, passionfruit flavor. Think of Lacroix- "There was a sort of passionfruit near". This drink packs a whammy! I would absolutely detour my way through Denver to get this drink again. The sandwich was so good. The cilantro was really fresh and the pickled vegetables were great. I love the soy sauce. And the baguette was crusty the way it should be. read more

Lee's Sandwiches - Desserts Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This is major chain in California so it was really hyped up when it finally arrived in Denver. It's good, but not $8 good banh mi, especially when ingredients are not plentiful or the size isn't especially larger. You can get a better value at other local places. Their coffee is, of course, strong and delicious so I can see how people can get addicted. I guess if coffee is going for $6 then it's a fair value, but you can make Vietnamese coffee at home and use condensed milk. read more

Loved Lee's as I'm originally from CA and they are fairly common across most of the major metro areas. The location was easy to find but I had to circle the block as they closed the main entrance. Is a small shop so with only a few outside spots to eat. My favorite sandwich is the BBQ Pork Bahn Mi. In my experience, it comes with a crisp baguette, buttered, filled with veggies (cilantro, jalapenos and pickled onions and carrots) and marinated pork. This sandwich left much to be desired. First, the bread was a little chewy as if it needed a few more minutes in the oven. It also looked smaller than I remember (thinner and smaller). Second, butter was a little too light. There were little veggies at all which is needed to balance the flavor if the pork. The pork also felt a little under done and too light on the sauce, as if it needed more time to marinate. Plus they were a little light on the amount of meat in the sandwich. Flavor was there but just not enough overall I didn't try any of the other items this time but I might. The staff was nice and provided me extra veggies when I asked. Maybe they just need some more time to get it right but overall, it was alright. I'll give it a second chance so let's hope for a better experience next time. read more

Disappointing at best. After many visits to the Houston location, this one has a loooong way to go. The pork was dry and approaching a jerky type of texture, the vegetables were sparse and the sandwich was about the diameter of an egg roll. See some of the other photos for reference, it really is that bad. read more
