Pittsburgh's Favorite Corner Deli
On Pittsburgh's North Shore, The Sandwich Shoppe turns first-timers into regulars — scratch-made food, generous portions, people who care.
The Sandwich Shoppe | Our Story
Steps from PNC Park
On Western Avenue's buzzing North Shore strip, we're a real neighborhood deli where you slow down, sit at the counter, and exhale. The ballparks bring the crowd; we've got the mashed potatoes.
No Shortcuts Back Here
Everything out of this kitchen is scratch-made — meatloaf, soups, even the lumpy mashed potatoes. Our regulars would notice if we cut corners, and honestly, so would we.
Thursday Changed Everything
Meatloaf Thursday put us on the map — people started planning their whole week around it, and corporate lunch bookings followed. A specials board became the heartbeat of the neighborhood.
Morning Through the Lunch Rush
We open early because breakfast is serious — French toast, home fries that hit exactly right, and a counter that fills up fast. By noon, the lunch crowd takes over and the whole rhythm starts again.
The Kind of Place That Sticks
A visitor from Italy eats here nearly every day during his three months in Pittsburgh each year — he loves the counter, the owner, and the soups. That says it all.
