Updated 6.27.26: Happy to report Shamus' has passed the quality and consistency check I came back because I was craving The Deadliest Catch tuna sandwich that was sooo good the last time I was here. I ordered that and my roommate decided to try The Rancher, sub ranch, lol ikik, for the Beaver sweet and spicy mustard and Italian dressing. I couldn't get enough of my tuna sandwich, it was so delicious! The sourdough bread is just so fresh and soft, yet not soft enough to sog up my sandwich. My roommate kept saying how much meat there was and couldn't imagine being hungry enough for a full sandwich He really enjoyed his crazy combo of Beaver mustard and Italian dressing too. The ladies working were super nice and friendly and although the weather was a bit cooler, the patio was nice and relaxing. read more

No joke. Monster amount of meat! Unless you are a big eater, I would recommend the small size sandwich which seemed to have almost as much meat as the large size sandwich. I had the Shamus Famous - Fresh soft bread with delicious corned beef. There were a steady stream of regulars, which is always a good sign. Friendly service with down to earth ambiance. Nice outdoor seating area. Bottomless fountain drinks. read more

Shamus's Sandwich Shop - Shamus Famous - Sandwiches Near Me - Spokane Valley, Washington

After a Doctor Appointment I was starving as I hadn't eaten since the day before. I was craving a good deli sandwich and I got a Great Sandwich. They were getting ready to close, but treated me with plenty of courtesy and didn't rush me. The owner explained they only had sourdough or french bread left, which I totally understood. I'm glad I had the French bread. The sandwich was handed to me before I could even put my change away. I ordered the Rocky's Italian Stallion. It came with a crunchy dill pickle spear and some kettle style potato chips. The bread was soft &!fluffy with a slight chew on the crust. There was plenty of meat, pepper jack cheese, veggies, & a slightly chunky sweet spread that compliments the meats and cheese. Now I want to go back for another sandwich even though I live over an hour away. It would be worth the drive. read more

Best sandwich I've ever had and most likely the best place on this planet... never been happier

Great service, took the sandwich recommendation from the two women working, appreciated the advice. My sandwich was ready for me before I had even finished paying! So happy I stumbled upon this spot on my way through Spokane. read more

This place was amazing!! The service, prices, and portions are great!! It took literally 5 minutes from the time I paid to getting my massive sandwich. My daughter is a picky eater and she loved the BLT! We will always make a trip here!! Keep up the amazing job! read more

Best sandwiches ever!!! So fresh & tasty. Lots of bread choices & soups! Small inside but friendly & fun people!! read more

This place is a hidden gem! I ordered the Rancher and it was a massive turkey sandwich on delicious sourdough bread. It also came with chips which was a great surprise. And they make your order fast! Shamus's is definitely my new favorite sandwich shop in Spokane. read more

If I could I would do a 3.5 star rating. I did not find my sandwich to be anything spectacular. I do appreciate the location and how fast the food comes out. The folks there are nice. I guess for me when I pay for a sandwich I like my Italian style subs to have more sauce and flavor. I know many who like this place but unfortunately for me I'd rather go to a chain. I highly recommend checking it out and see if you enjoy it as much as most people because if you're there around the lunch hour it's booming. read more

The turkey sandwich was huge and delicious on fresh baked breads with so many options, build your own or order from the many choices on the menu. read more

Shamus's Sandwich Shop - Turkey sandwich was delicious! You get a huge sandwich for the price! They have a good selection of all kinds of sandwiches - Sandwiches Near Me - Spokane Valley, Washington

Great little sandwich shop with huge sandwiches. Fresh baked breads make it stand apart from others.

Found this place while driving back to Coeur d'alene and we were on the hangry side. Great little sandwich shop, friendly staff at the counter and fast service. We both ordered sandwiches, mine was a small and it was huge, mounds of turkey. We could only eat half of them, took the rest home for later. There was a pleasant little courtyard in the back that had sunshades, even with warm temperatures it was comfortable. The price was right as well. read more

Great sandwich for the price, I wish the bread didn't get soggy so quickly though. I ordered the Italian sandwich and it was delicious, the ham was a little weird and I don't know if that's from the Italian dressing they put on it or what because it was wet. I wish the ham to pepperoni and salami ratio was more even, i had 1 slice of salami and 1 slice of pepperoni so i wish they used more of those and less ham but either way it was still a tasty sandwich for the price! The owner was working the counter when I ordered and was super friendly, I was out in 5 minutes which was also nice. The inside is small but not a bad spot to sit inside and drink a beer with your meal. I will definitely be back as long as the price stays reasonable because it wasn't the best sandwich I've had in town but it was good quality! The pickle was also one of the best, crunchy and flavorful! read more

One of the best sandwiches in Spokane. Fresh bread, lots of meat, special sauces for each sandwich and huge. A small sandwich isn't small! I had the Reuben on swirled rye bread. It was outstanding! No wonder there is a line out the door to order. Looking forward to trying a different sandwich on my next visit. They had an outdoor courtyard if you stay there to eat. read more

Still the best and will continue to be the best. They have a small menu with daily soup selections. The meat is sliced so thin and they pack it in! They're following the Covid standards so you can rest assured you're safe. I live in Vegas now but eve time I visit home I have to come to Shamus's. They have nothing in Vegas that comes close to the freshness and taste for these sandwiches offer. Every sandwich comes with baked chips that are pretty dang delicious. The difference between the small and the large sandwich is how much meat they pack in. I always get full with the small San who he's and so does my boyfriend. If you're in the area and around the time they're open do yourself a favor and have some of these amazing sandwiches. They have wheat and white bread for those who like options. If you're looking for quick and delicious sandwiches stop by Shamus's read more

ABSOLUTELY AMAZIMG! This place is a hidden gem. I've never been here before. It took me longer to look at the menu then it took them to make my food. The food is AMAZING. HUGE AND DELICIOUS read more

My wife and I have been at the MultiCare Hospital all day every day for a week. It is only a few blocks from Shamus. As a result, I have eaten the Herbivore everyday for lunch. Not only is the sandwich super delicious but the staff is super friendly, and super fast. They always have my order complete before I can get the fountain drinks--It's pretty amazing. Needless to say, Im a huge fan that will likely go through withdrawals after I return home to Chicago. read more

Excellent sandwiches, bread is very good! Get there early for lunch, even when busy they hustle!

Food was delicious, service spectacular...vibes were good! The efficiency of the food preparation was amazing. This will be a regular stop whenever we're in the Spokane Valley area!! read more

My wife and I were looking for a sandwich shop off the beaten path, something that wasn't a chain place. If you are in Spokane Valley, this is your place!!! I had the King of clubs, and my wife and the Rocky's italian stallion, both on sourdough, as recommended by the girl working the counter. I have had a lot of sandwiches in my lifetime, but these 2 rank way up in my book, easily top 5. They were far cheaper than subway, jersey mike's, Quiznos, and all your regular sandwich places, and the amount of meat on these sandwiches was crazy. If you are in Spokane or Spokane Valley, and are wanting a sandwich, drive passed all the other places, and go here, you will not be disappointed. read more

The most delicious sandwiches with the most incredible customer service! The people who work here make you feel like a million bucks! My favorite lunch place for sure. 10/10, highly recommended!! read more

Excellent service. Family owned business that family members work at. Their outdoor patio is wonderful. Nice quiet relaxing lunch spot. Their bread is sooo good. The sandwich selection is creative and tasty. We actually went 3 times in one week after accidentally finding the place. Cassidy is a wonderful server and a family member. Great job! read more

This was such a great experience! We were staying in a nearby hotel and wanted to try something local for lunch. The food was amazing. We've had a fish sandwich and a roast beef sandwich. The bread could not be fresher, the toppings were just like they should be, the chips were just fresh and we would be regulars if we lived closer. Also the outdoor seating in the courtyard is just super cute. Oh, and the food came out SO fast. read more

Shamus's Sandwich Shop - Cute courtyard open! - Sandwiches Near Me - Spokane Valley, Washington

I don't work out in the Valley very often, but today I was moved over to my works valley location, which is a short 2 minutes away from Shamus's. Shamus's has been my favorite sandwich shop in town. Great prices, great food, great people, and extremely fast service. Today, I received some not very great news and have not been having a good morning. Obviously I'm gonna cheer myself up with a good sandwich. They are training a new person, who made my sandwich. When I got back to work with my food, I realized this sandwich was not the same quality as I had previously received. I called and explained what happened with my food (apologized a lot because I felt bad for calling.) I explained that it wasn't a big deal, but I was not having a good day at all and was just very excited. They were all very quick, and offered to remake the sandwich (I told the wonderful woman who answered that I would be fine if they just gave me more meat lol.) When I got back to the shop, they finished remaking my sandwich in like 2 minutes. It was only a hiccup, not one persons fault, and they were very quick to helping me. Thank you so so so much for your continued service- my bad day is not your fault, but you all made the effort to make sure that THIS part of my day was great. Update: I just realized that they gave me an extra pickle and I almost cried because it made me so happy read more

Yum! Delicious! On way home to CdA and found this cute little sandwich shop. Glad we did. Simple menu....great food! Service was fast! Definitely go out of your way to try this place out. Heavy on the meat sandwiches and cute little courtyard outside! read more

Fantasy and quick service! Lots of beverage options. Delicious sandwiches piled high with meat! We had the roast beef sandwich which they put just the right mix of horseradish on. Super tasty bread. Super fresh chips and delicious pickle!! Was grabbing lunch while doing a job in the area and it was unbelievably fast. Would definitely stop in again! I want to try the famous shamus!! Thanks you to their wonderful and pleasant staff! read more

Super duper fast, super fresh, huge sandwiches. The food is done basically before you finish paying. They have Ivars clam chowder too. Mmm

Spend 13 dollars and get nearly two meals worth of food. A perfect place to grab a quick lunch on the go!

I can't believe the amount of food you get here for such a small price! WARNING: the "small" sandwich is still big! Smaller appetites are recommended to bring a friend and split one of these. I had the Pile Driver, a big roast beef, cheddar and pepper jack sandwich. It has mayo and horseradish, and I had mine on sourdough. And it was simply great. All sandwiches come with Tim's Cascade chips and a pickle spear. Clam chowder is apparently Ivar's, which is fairly good. Place is super clean, and seating is nice and open. The owner, a big friendly guy who likes to greet people and learn their names. He runs a tight ship but still has time to chat with the regulars. He also used to play football at Eastern so is invested in Spokane with deep roots. In addition to prearranged selections, you can build your own sandwich if you prefer. They have a small beer selection as well. You won't find THAT at Subway. So glad that this location opened up close to my house. read more

Awesome find! They don't skimp on the toppings and the bread was super fresh. The food came out faster than we could pour our drinks. The seating in the courtyard behind the shop was very pleasant. Employees were great. Definitely will be back!! read more

Best sandwiches we've ever had. Great service. Super quick and the food is excellent. Loved it here. We will be back soon!

Yum! The SIZE of these sandwiches is INSANE! Fresh products, friendly staff and well, we were FULL after half of a half!

Big sandwiches seem to be a thing around Spokane and this place does Big sandwiches extremely well. The gals that helped us were very knowledgeable and our food was made quickly. The Parking isn't for large trucks but then again no place has good parking in that town. I wont let anything stop me from hitting this place up when I get back out that way. read more

Great sandwiches for a reasonable price with quick friendly service. The music was a little loud.

This place is a staple in the community. They've been around forever and they are small business. They use quality ingredients and they don't skimp on the size of the sandwich. The chips are fresh made from scratch in their kitchen and they are great. You always get a pickle with your sandwich and the pickle is always fresh. The service is friendly and fast and they have good menu options. I gave it four stars because the location is a bit of a hole in the wall. I decided after dining in once that I would take my sandwich to go in the future. Nothing against the staff or the food. If you want dine in I suggest the patio in the back. read more

It's a cute place with a Irish theme. The food is not spectacular but substantial. It was quite busy because it looks like they have a good base of regular customers. read more

I went back in today to order some lunch to go, and the main owner, the gentleman who was not wearing a mask last time, was again not wearing a mask of this time. Even after I visibly stayed away from him, he still did not put on a mask. I don't think I'll be coming back until the pandemic is over. read more

Super basic. Got the Italian stallion. Nothing more than deli meat on bread. Staff was super friendly though.
