  • I'm a born and raised Calgarian and I am a little embarrassed to say my first time at Spolumbo's was only very recently! I'd never been there before, but I've been hearing buzz about their fabled sausages and sandwiches for a long time now. My boyfriend has had many a Spolumbo sandwich in his day, so I let him take the lead on the orders. We were headed out to Banff to take in an outdoor concert, and wanted to get each person in our party a sandwich for the drive. After putting in our three friend's orders, my boyfriend recommended we get the Spolumbo's Special. Since he'd been there before and we have similar taste, I agreed. There was also an extremely long line and sandwich makers were actually walking down the row taking people's order before they reached the counter, so I didn't have a ton of time to make a decision. Each sandwich was between $7 - $9. Honestly, a little on the steep side for something one could definitely make at home for half the cost, but the point is that I don't make this at home. I'm not about to buy a full jar of roasted red pepper spread, and three different kinds of Italian deli meats, cheese and fresh bread to satisfy my sub craving. So I guess you're paying for the convenience factor. And they sandwiches are big, and very filling, so at the end of the day, it's a full meal for me, which actually works out to be a steal of a meal deal for $9. Or at least these days it does IMHO. The sandwiches themselves were really good. True, as some other reviewers pointed out, perhaps they're not "authentic" New York/Italian deli style sandwiches. But they are good regardless. They meat and cheese tasted fresh, the sauce was tasty, the pickles were a nice touch and I was full after I ate. In fact, we drove from Spolumbos to Banff, and when I unwrapped my sandwich to eat once we reached the mountains, it was still fresh and delicious and satisfying. It hadn't gotten soggy or droopy during the car ride. Extra points. Ideally, I would give Spolumbo's 3.5 stars, and I would definitely go back for another sandwich, and to try the sausage!
