We’re inspired by the places we grew up eating in—school cafeterias, diners, fast food joints, bodegas, and mom & pop shops from all over the country.
A great sandwich is about balance: crisp bread, clean flavors, thoughtful layers. Hot things stay hot, cold things stay cold. Cheese melts just right. Tomatoes get a little salt. Lettuce gets dressed. It’s food made with care, eaten in minutes, remembered for days.
We’re two New Yorkers—friends who’ve spent a lot of time cooking, eating, and arguing about sandwiches. After years of talking about what our ideal sandwich shop might look like, we decided to just build it.
A 700 sq ft space in the East Village, set to open late August. Morning juice, lunchtime rush, cold beer at night.
We’re looking for someone to help us bring this thing to life. Someone who knows their way around a kitchen and leads with a steady hand. Who’s thoughtful about flavor, sharp on execution, and energized by the rhythm of a good, clean service. We want this place to feel tight-knit, intentional, and always joyful.
If that sounds like your kind of thing, say hi:
