Popped by cause I was craving Hong Kong milk tea, which is pretty hard to find. So glad I did! The milk tea really hit the spot, smooth and creamy but still with a strong tea flavor. The sandwiches also sounded unique, so we ended up getting the Willow and Kimchi Chicken. The staff was very helpful and patient with helping us pick. They even explained that their pickles are closer to Vietnamese/banh mi style since I don't normally like pickles. I really enjoyed the sweetness from the fig jam in the Willow. I wasn't sure about the Kimchi, but it was well-balanced with a light kimchi spread. I appreciate the Asian inspired flavors and love supporting a local business. Will definitely be back to try some others sandwiches that caught my eye. And milk tea. They are also attached to Loard's and who could resist ice cream after lunch.. read more

Been eying this place for a while. Its located in the renovated Loards Ice cream, which Id been coming to since I was 10. The drew me to this was the Ribena Lemonade. ribena is a drink the th UK, Australia, but is a black currant drink.so combining with Lemonade was great. I ordered the Wentino and the Ribena Lemonade for pick up. The sandwich was a good size and really good the Ribena came with nice parchment like paper between the lid so that it didnt spill and sanitary. The combo of the Ribena syrup and Lemonade was a great combo. Will order again read more

Weslo's - Hot Butt, green thai tea, mango passion fruit - Sandwiches Near Me - Oakland, California

Delicious sandwiches at Weslo's! An under the radar spot as it's located in a shared space with Loard's. Service was quick and friendly. There's a few tables outside for seating. We ordered the Hot Butt, The Weslo, Westino, Kimchi Chicken, and Wakobe. Overall, these are tasty and well balanced sandwiches! The meat is cut thin and it's a generous amount that they give. My favorite sandwiches were the Hot Butt and Wakobe! The others were solid as well, aside from the kimchi chicken which was a bit of a miss for us. It's nice bread that they use, crunchy and the perfect size. The drinks were good as well - the Thai green tea had a nice jasmine taste to it! Would definitely come back! Tip: There's a corner store next door where you can buy chips as well to go with your sandwiches! read more

Weslo's has the best sandwiches in the East Bay, hands down! I first tried them when my work catered lunch from there, and I couldn't wait to visit in person on my day off. It was even better than I expected! For me, a great sandwich is all about the bread-to-meat ratio, and Weslo's nails it. They use Acme bread and Boar's Head meats, which makes every bite feel like a little piece of heaven. Some of my top picks are the Wentino, Lemon Chicken, Weslo, and Hot Butt--each one's a winner. If you're thirsty, you have to try their Hong Kong milk tea or the mango passion fruit drink to go with your sandwich. Perfect pairing! Bonus: They're on DoorDash too! We've ordered a few times for work, and every sandwich has come neatly packed and still super fresh. read more

Weslo's is a recently opened sandwich shop in the heart of Oakland, offering a variety of classic and innovative sandwiches. On the first visit, we tried the "Wentino" sandwich (loaded with meats and provolone cheese) and Hong Kong milk tea. The sandwich tasted amazing from first to the last bite, with meat in every bite! And the milk tea was robust and full of the classic milk tea taste (just like the ones in Hong Kong). Overall, it was a wonderful first visit. We hope to try the other sandwiches and drinks in the future. read more

Mom and I stopped by to grab lunch for the fam and some ice cream from Loard's to go. Perfectly timed reopening as weather is starting to warm up. We've been in the neighborhood for years and have seen Loard's through its closing. Now with its reopening I was excited to check it out. They have upgraded the interior and have added Weslo's right to the side (sandwiches and fruit/milk teas)! I love milk tea, so I was super excited to see this addition to the neighborhood. My dad doesn't do carbs so we asked if there is a lettuce wrap version. That's not currently an option, but they did very kindly offer to turn the sando into a salad! Dad liked his salad! My mom liked her Wakobe sandwich, and I really enjoyed my Wentino! The Wentino is an italian sandwich. I'm usually a dunch crunch person, but they had run out of dutch crunch that day so I went with the french roll, which was totally fine. I'm not sure if the complimentary drinks were a part of soft opening or just out of their kind hearts lol, but it was very much appreciated! I was really surprised that I loved the Ribena lemonade the most, having totally looked over it while eyeing the menu. I also tried the mango passion fruit and thai green tea. The Thai green tea is florally, and not too sweet to begin with. They didn't have the coconut cream prepared yet, so I went I opted for the regular creamer for the thai green tea. It was still enjoyable but I'm curious to see what it would taste like with the coconut cream. I'll have to return to give it a try! Maybe with an ice cream topper perhaps? The man who helped us (sorry didn't catch his name, but maybe he is the store owner/manager) was amazing and super accommodating. We sampled the lemon chiffon, mango, coconut pineapple...all delicious! Mom decided to grab a tub of mango and lemon chiffon! We'll definitely coming back again. Also, peep the cute hand written sign from Willow and Weston...so I guess that's where the name comes from? Super cute. read more

===TL;DR=== - #5 the willow - #8 hot butt - HK milk tea - Phin brewed coffee ===TMI=== Located inside Loards ice cream, to the right side. Both sandwiches were remarkable. The willow is on the sweeter end with the fig spread but it got a good balance from the arugula. The hot butt is on the more savory end but they were both amazing in flavors. They're not those jumbo sandwiches but they're a good size. The HK milk tea is really creamy and milky whereas the phin coffee got a good balance of sweetness and bitterness. I think they're a great find! Highly recommend! read more

I've been coming here since they opened last summer and have always loved their sandwiches and drinks. Last week at work, it was my turn to choose lunch for our monthly meeting. Ofcourse I picked Weslo's and ordered catering for the office meeting and it was a huge hit with everyone. People kept asking where it was from. They also offer free delivery for catering, which was a huge plus! Will definitely be ordering catering again. read more

It took us a minute to find as we did not realize the location is shared with Loard's Ice Cream. We were pleasantly surprised at the delicious sandwiches. I loved the lemon chicken sandwich and my hubby had the kimchi. Also, has the green Thai tea which was not too sweet and so yummy. I loved that is family run. This might be our new fav sandwich spot in the city. read more

Weslo's - Lemon Chicken Green Thai Tea - Sandwiches Near Me - Oakland, California

Had the Willow sando at a catered birthday party, and wow... this sandwich was a standout. The combo of savory prosciutto with the sweetness of fig jam was perfect. Balanced, flavorful, and just different enough to feel special without being over the top. The presentation was also impressive. The platter looked beautiful, everything neatly arranged and super inviting. You could tell some care went into how it was put together, which made it feel a step above your average catered sandwich. If this is any indication of the rest of their menu, I'll definitely be making a trip to Westlo's soon. The Willow was delicious, memorable, and honestly one of the best catered sandwiches I've had in a long time. read more

I got to try a series of their sandwiches when we ordered catering. Looked great and tasted even better. They even surprised us with a fun custom sandwich for our baby. read more

Weslo's - They made a custom sandwich for my kids 1st birthday catering. - Sandwiches Near Me - Oakland, California

Stumbled upon this looking for a quick bite to eat. This place has easy access from the 580 and no Oakland traffic. I only tried the Kimichi chicken sandwich and was pleasantly surprised. This was a great sandwich with kimichi spread but not too overpowering. Great balance of taste. The other important part of the sandwich which they did right was the bread. I have tried to many places that bread was a bad generic roll. This places uses great bread this is not your crappy cheapy French roll. DON'T let the funky location throw you off ( it is co-located with ice cream shop). This is a legit sandwich place I will definitely be making this one of my lunch spots when I drive through the 580 its worth the stop. read more

Righ as you walk in, there are nice waiters that greet you and give you plenty of time to order. The sandwich shop is also connected to an ice cream store called loards. Everything we tried here was no less than perfect! It has a very chill atmosphere with some tables to maybe hand out and study while eating a sandwich or drinking some Thai tea and mill tea! Easily one of the best sandwich places I've been to! read more

Weslo's - The Weslo - Sandwiches Near Me - Oakland, California

A MUST-TRY! Worth Every Single Mile of the Drive! Weslo isn't just a sandwich shop; it's a masterclass in flavor and quality. Every single item we tried was phenomenal, and this spot is absolutely worth going out of your way for. We dove into three sandwiches, each a masterpiece: the Kimchi Chicken (deli sliced roast chicken, kimchi spread, mozzarella) offered a fantastic, tangy kick; and the Hot Butt (capicola, pepper jack, lemon spread, arugula) was perfectly spicy and zesty. But the absolute highlight was The Willow! The prosciutto, ham, and mozzarella were divine, but it was the fig spread that stole the show, adding that perfect, crucial level of sweetness to balance the savory cured meats. A truly unforgettable flavor combination. The drinks were equally impressive. We tried the bright, refreshing Ribena Lemonade (sweet black currant meets homemade lemonade), the perfectly executed Hong Kong-style Milk Tea, and the tropical Mango Passion Fruit drink. If you're looking for high-quality, inventive, and delicious sandwiches and drinks, look no further. This is a solid five stars and a new favorite! read more

Heck yeah. The Weslo sandwich on herb bread is outstanding. Lemon tea is so fresh and good. Way to go neighbors!

We had the #8 Hot Butt and #6 Wakobe, and both were delicious. Each were different but the herb bread was good and the spreads were great - both the lemon spread and the aji verde. I also had the Mango Passionfruit tea, which was well balanced and not too sweet. I would definitely go back for another sandwich (but maybe build my own). Right next to Loard's if you want a sweet treat, as well. A nice new spot for sandwiches. Would recommend for a good sandwich. read more

Very nice spot. Super friendly staff gave good advice on which sandwiches were good for kiddos. The place was so clean and professional looking that I incorrectly thought it might have been a chain. Good food. And they've got ice cream right there! I didn't try the drinks this time but they did look promising. Where's the boba?? read more

I ordered a bunch of sandwiches, with special requests, for our local High School (in Oakland) mock trial scrimmage against a visiting team for 12.4.25. The sandwiches were ready on time and perfectly wrapped as requested. The last time we ordered sandwiches was from a deli in Lafayette. The students thought those sandwiches were great. But amazingly, my students universally indicated the Weslo sandwiches were even better. I consider that a super recommendation. Thank You Weslo. Coach Pinkney read more
