I’ve lived in NYC for 16 years and am a major sandwich enthusiast. A hand-held balanced meal! The flavor and texture symphony! The classic sandwich shop vibe! There were many years I had one for lunch every day, never tiring of the format, because it’s wonderfully versatile. In short, I am pleased to be something of a sandwich connoisseur.
Therefore, I was curious if this legendary local sandwich tour had any new spots or intel for me. I went in hoping to at least be entertained and meet fellow sandwich enthusiasts. (We are of solid, cheerful stock, I can now confirm.) It’s an excellent team adventure. I brought a couple friends, visiting from other cities. What I got was a fun, delicious educational journey with an expert host, a tour I actually want to do again and bring different sets of friends. We had a wonderful time. Ben immediately had us all laughing together, along with the other folks on the tour we had only just met (some of us exchanged info and will meet again).
To my surprise, I’d never heard of most of the tour stops. They were unique NYC gems, off the beaten path. And we had a generous sandwich portion at each: you have to arrive hungry or you will not be able to complete your mission of enjoying all the fabulous flavors along the way! Definitely do this tour, even if sandwiches aren’t your passion: you will learn to love them and also get a true taste of local NYC life. Ben is a natural host and ambassador to the whole city, but particularly the sandwiches that represent our fabulous melting pot.

This sandwich tour is an absolute must-try experience. Led by Ben, an exceptional host with deep knowledge of both sandwiches and the local area, this tour stands out as one of the best of its kind. The carefully curated selection of sandwiches and the choice of eateries are nothing short of superb. Ben's expertise shines through in every aspect of the tour, from the informative commentary to the delicious tastings. One word of advice: come hungry. The generous portions and mouthwatering variety will leave you fully satisfied by the end. This tour is a perfect blend of culinary adventure and neighborhood exploration, making it a truly memorable experience for any sandwich lover.

This tour was wonderful - I've been to NYC many times, and done many tours - and this one was awesome. We had two friends that have been NYC locals for 20 years on the tour with us, and they discovered places that they now plan to visit regularly!
The food was delicious (priority #1) and I was STUFFED by the end. The tour guide (Ben) was fun and encouraged lively debate. Ben was also conscious that it was SO HOT and HUMID the day we took the tour and managed to find us shade and AC at every turn. We discovered places we never would have found on our own - and will definitely be going back to next time we're in NY!
This tour is a real gem and I highly recommend it for any age! We had kids on our tour and they loved it as well.
