What the heck does Gruman's do to get their staff so stoked about smoked meat? Want to find out? Take a bite of one of a Gruman's sandwich - you will know immediately! *Caution* You may need to dislocated your jaw first.
A regular Reuben comes stuffed with 7 oz. of thick sliced smoked meat greatness. If you're feeling zaney, 'Zadie' size if for $2 and get 2 more ounces shoved in there. 9 oz. Reuben, friends. Prepare yourself!
Want to be a star of you office? Gruman's does catering. Order from them. I'm sure they have some sort of options for the outspoken veggies in your office, but I don't know what they are. Ma
Their Smoked Meat Poutine is unreal. The smoked meat is a bonus, but this poutine really holds its own. I want to go on a "gravy only" cleanse diet and carry a water bottle of it around with me wherever I go. I tried to wait until noone was watching before I tongue-bathed that plate clean. To be completely honest, I don't even care who saw. We're in love!!
Things to know: There's a parking lot in front of Gruman's but you don't get to park in it. It's sort of unfortunate as there's only a few street parking spaces out front along the one-way street. I wish who ever owned the lot would be willing to let Gruman's have parking spaces in exchange for sandwiches. Everyone would win!
They're only open until 3:30 so you can get Smoked Meat Breakfast Poutine in the morning, a Reuben for lunch, but you'll have to skip picking up your 3rd straight smoked meat meal on the way home.
Maybe it's a mad rush over the lunch hour, but during the non-peak times I've been to Gruman's I've pretty much had the place to myself.
