| - FREE SANDWICHES for EVERYBODY ! ! !
This is located in Fairview Park---not Cleveland---at the intersection of Lorain and W.220, NE corner. Will tell them so that they can update info here. 5 Star rating is based on the two generously-filled sandwiches that were ordered---and thoroughly enjoyed---and friendly Heather who helped on choice decisions.
BEEF MENCHE * * * * * (pronounced mench)
beef pastrami thinly-sliced, spicy coleslaw, swiss cheese, chipoltle mayo, on hoagie.
Very good beef quality...next time---rather than on the sandwich---I'll see if I can have the slaw on the side, instead (even if a slight upcharge for quantity increase, that's ok)...wanted more because liked the taste...each element has nice flavors, however seems to work against each other, with the individual flavors getting lost; slaw on side would make a big difference...still very good, and on a fresh crusty (soft inside) hoagie, panini-prepped...crisp dill pickle
CHICKEN LORAIN * * * * *
grilled chicken breast medium-sliced, artichoke chunks, goat cheese, tomato slices, basil mayo, on hoagie.
Very good chicken flavor...this is a popular choice here, and I can see why...a real winner---great combo of ingredients...same delicious hoagie and pickle as Beef Menche
.
First time there and will definitely be back. Very friendly greeting and service. Several salad choices, and probably 8-10 different multi-ingredient sandwiches (on your choice of hoagie or tomato basil pita---or maybe it was flatbread?). Soup and potato chips, too. Clean interior. Chalkboard-style menu. Seating for maybe 10-12. Adequate private lot parking, access from Lorain or W.220.
On a wall about 4 or 5 framed news articles with accolades for this cute little diner, including the Plain Dealer, and (I think) Cleveland magazine.
******* FREE SANDWICH *******
If they get busy and it slips their mind, ask for one of their business cards. On the reverse it has 6 blank squares that they will check off/sign. Once you've purchased 6 sandwiches, the 7th is free. (Check with them---it might apply to their salads, too.) Very good value, considering the size and weight !
