    Corned beef
    Lou L.

    Wow!! Can't believe I didn't know about this place. Meat is sliced fresh. Bread is fresh. Sandos are huge and tasty. Best I've ever had. Well done.

    Shamus's Famous, Pile Driver, and the King of Clubs. Rye and sourdough. All amazing.
    Steve M.

    It doesn't look like much from the outside, but it's money on the inside. Service was fast and excellent. Shamus's Famous, the Pile Driver and the King of Clubs were all excellent. Love love love the rye bread. My daughter said the sourdough was great, too. If we lived here, we'd be back. Regularly. Thanks!

    Great sandwichs for a great price. I've driven by for years and finally stopped. Wow! So good. Get the large, it's worth it! A few beers on tap. Bless! Irish Death so happy to see a dark beer on tap. Not a lot of seating in the small building.

    I am from Idaho and hate going to Spokane. This little sandwich shop just gave me a reason to come to Spokane. Excellent service. Outstanding attitude from all the staff. Great food.

    This is a no-frills spot with a few beers on tap, Ivar's clam chowder, and big, tasty sandwiches. They serve Tim's chips and a pickle with every order. The Rancher is my personal go-to, but I've had most the sandwiches on the menu (even the tuna, which I don't order at most places) and I've never been disappointed. My pictures are of the large size, which I can only finish half of, so if you're a light eater the small will suite you fine. I like having more for later though! Service is never bad but can be pretty curt during lunch rush and seating is very limited so plan on getting your food to-go. It travels well and service is as fast and efficient as they come, so no worries. If you work in the area, this is a dependable, tried-and-true lunch spot that will have you coming back even when you change jobs and it's no longer convenient.

    I think my review wouldn't be different from any other here .. great assembly of sandwiches .. breads are freshly baked everyday, sourced from a local bakery .. and they are absolutely super. The amount and quality of meat, the cheese and the combination of sauces are great. And the way they make your order in a flash is really really amazing .. I was astonished on my very first visit for a to go order .. I mean during the time the payment from your card is getting approved or they are giving you the change back .. the sandwich is just ready .. You are like "is it mine?" .. "are you sure?" .. "no it is not mine" Still having some doubt you want to peep in to it .. :D .. But then they are more of a "sandwich assembly shop" .. not taking anything away saying them the sandwiches are great .. hundred percent. Portion size is great and prices are really fair. Had the Shamu's famous last time .. it is more like a reuben .. thought that the corned beef could have been a bit more tastier .. but I am not very fond of bland meat so it could just be me. Next visit will be for the pile driver and an update here.

    Shamus's is small but mighty! Right off of sprague, with plenty of parking. If you stop in for lunch on the weekday just know it'll be busy with local workers. My husband and I split the Hawaiian on French bread, it was delicious! There are usually only two people working in front but they are fast! They even separated our sandwiches in two baskets with pickles and chips. Honestly the large was perfect to split, and the small will probably be plenty for you. It is inexpensive and you get a great product. Anytime I'm in town this is a must stop. I paired my sandwich with a Mac and Jacks African Amber, and they usually have 3-4 beers on tap. Limited seating, some outdoors when it's nice. The decor is all local sports related, a lot of Eastern Eagles jerseys and pics, love it! Definitely a hidden gem in Spokane, can't wait to visit again soon!

On another note, they offer a ton of hot sauces and I tried, Melinda's Ghost Pepper, and it was so fiery good that I'm gonna find myself some. If you like heat, try it! Service was great and ambiance was calm since we came after the lunch rush. Definitely looking forward to our next Smacky's visit!

I ordered the Fig Sandwich and the Fancy Pants Sando because I could not decide between the two as they both sounded very unique in different ways. I called the place up and arranged to come pick the food up. The person on the phone was very thoughtful in keeping in mind at what time I would arrive so he could arrange for the sandwich to be toasted at the right time. I appreciate small details like that. When I arrived, I noticed there were several tables and a bar where you can essentially get brews and food. I noticed they had several beers on tap which I was very curious about, but unfortunately did not have time to sit down and eat at this establishment. The person at the bar was extremely friendly and made me feel very welcome. The two sandwiches came up to $40ish. I brought the sandwiches home and first tried a few bites of the Fancy Pants Sando. I will have to say it was the better of the two sandwiches. I appreciated the goat cheese in the sandwich and the mix of different ingredients, but it was not something I would consider to be a great sandwich, at least not for me. Others might find it pleasant, but I did not care for it much. The fig sandwich was the one I was more excited about and expected some sweetness to be cut down by the bacon. I don't think it was a perfect balance between the two, and I got a tad much of the overwhelming sweetness of the figs in this sandwich. Again, others might enjoy it, but I didn't care for it. I really wanted to give this place a great review, but unfortunately it did not meet my expectations. The beer looks fun though and might be a good reason to give this place a try, and you may enjoy their sandwiches and many people have. For me, that's a no-go.

My friend is into Philly Cheesesteaks and I wanted to try the veggie rice bowl. So at the ordering counter, there's a bell to ring for help or to ask questions. With that said, it's a DIY kiosk tablet that was pretty simple and user friendly. My friend got a traditional Philly Ribeye Cheesesteak with extra cheese and an order of cheese fries. I got the veggie rice bowl with all the veggies offered except for jalapenos. I choose 2 sauce options: soy aioli and gochujang. I also got a side order of fries. My veggie bowl arrived hot and steamy and had a pretty good flavor profile considering I chose 2 sauces. Rice to veggies was proportionate and the portion itself was worth the value too. If there's any suggestion, it would be to use a different rice or add a little water to it throughout the day as it's on the warmer so it doesn't dry out as fast. I'm a bit weird and like my veggies slightly undercooked and will ask for that next time. Overall, I enjoyed the veggie rice bowl. Now, the fries were amazing! Great crisp, tender inside, and best of all it had this texture I only come across sometimes. I tried to take a pic to capture what I mean. But ikyk! My friend, at first glance of his Philly, wondered where all the cheese was since he ordered extra cheese. Well, it's safe to say it was nicely folded into the meat because after taking a few bites, he said it really liked it and that it was definitely cheesy. He got 2 different cheeses and said next time he will order extra peppers. He also made mention of the bread used and how he liked it and that the bread used could make or break the sandwich. In the end, he wished he ordered another sandwich to-go for later lol. The cheese fries were SUPER CHEESY so if you're into that, definitely order it. There was only 1 gentleman working, cooking, and cleaning. I want to guess he was the owner. He was really friendly and helpful and cooked us up a great lunch. On a sidenote, bathrooms need a code and the women's was really clean.
