Superb Sandwich Points in Melbourne to Experience a Genuine Sanga Goodness
A lot of wonderful sandwich joints are popping around the city with a great menu offering delicious choices. But when it comes to the sandwich game, the hotshots are still ahead in the race. For the sanga fans in Melbourne, here are the places to grab some real sandwich bustle and fill your tummy with goodness!
1. Hector’s Deli, Richmond
Hector’s Deli is the most sought-after sandwich store in Melbourne that you mustn’t miss. Don’t expect anything too showy, just regular, basic sandwiches fixed with love. Order a beef and pickles sandwich with a mustard pickle spread or a classic tuna or pickled mushrooms befitting your dietary requirements. Get some latte to cure your drowsiness later!

2. Big Dog’s Deli, Richmond
Similar to American sandwich shops, Big Dog’s Deli is more like a sandwich bar. The bread is chosen carefully and stuffed with pickled kimchi and sustainable roast pork. We recommend their iconic Prosciutto di Parma sandwich with crusty ciabatta. When the night vibes kick in, order some draught beers and wines and sandwiches dished out in their deconstructed form- the choices are huge!

7. Alimentari, Collingwood
Somewhat reflecting the Italian deli, Alimentari serves fresh salads, rotisserie meats, antipasto and paninis with separate Mediterranean-style breakfast and lunch.

8. Eastside Coffee, Melbourne
There are fewer options for your morning sandwich fix if you are an eastside native. But don’t be disappointed yet. Eastside Coffee is bringing one of the best sandwiches in Melbourne, right to your plate. The 12-hour lamb sanga including a slow-cooked lamb with melted feta, mint and lots of butter covered between two fluffy slices, steals the heart of Melbournians! Absolutely worth the carbs!

9. Maker & Monger, South Yarra
Maker & Monger rightly called the chapel of cheese, is an all-encompassing cheese shop. They feature a menu of oozing cheese toasties offering sensory delights like no other! The four grilled cheese sandwiches on the menu, including the American, pimento, fondue and the special fondue are the stars of their cheese party. Eat once, and you’ll know why we say, “they are addictive!”
