Happy National Sandwich Day, y’all! On this glorious November 3, Atlantans are toasting the humble yet heroic sandwich – that perfect portable meal invented (or at least popularized) by the Earl of Sandwich back in the 18th century.
From classic po’boys to towering turkey clubs, our city is a sandwich lover’s paradise, with spots like The Varsity slinging iconic chili dogs (hot dog: sandwich debate anyone?) and deli gems in Midtown piling on the pastrami.

Local ATL Flavors Joining the Fun
While big chains dominate, keep an eye on homegrown heroes. Spots like Woofgang’s Sandwich Shop in Virginia-Highland or The General Muir in Emory might drop surprise specials – call ahead! And don’t sleep on food trucks at Piedmont Park or markets like Krog Street for pop-up sandwich steals.
Why We Love Sandwiches in the A
Atlanta’s sandwich scene is as diverse as our skyline: Think Cuban presses at Havana Sandwich Shop in Brookhaven or vegan delights at Slutty Vegan. Today, grab a friend (or go solo – no judgment) and stack those savings. Deals are valid at participating locations only, so verify via app or phone.

And don’t sleep on some of the best places to eat in West Midtown.
The best restaurants on the Beltline all have excellent customer service and food. What separates them from many of the other spots is that they’re on the urban playground called the Beltline.
The ATL has other cool eateries as well. If you’re gluten-free, there’s plenty of options. Same goes for keto-friendly restaurants or Asian fare in Atlanta.
