Sandwich Inn

This is a classic Gainesville spot that delivers on simplicity and flavor. Being the oldest establishment is quite an achievement and I can see why they've lasted so long. Their menu offers a great variety of fresh, no-frills sandwiches that hit the spot every time. The quality of the ingredients shines through, and you can taste the care they put into each order. Their breakfast sandwiches, in particular, are a standout--perfectly cooked and satisfying without being overly heavy. I always get a egg and bacon when I go and onion rings . This time I ventured out and tried a bacon cheeseburger and it was incredible. My next item will have to be a patty melt and a milkshake or soda float. The service is friendly and fast, making it an ideal choice for a quick bite during a busy day. The retro atmosphere adds a nostalgic charm that makes you feel right at home. It's a refreshing change from chain restaurants, offering a unique local experience that keeps people coming back.The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the parking can be a little tricky during peak hours, and I wish there were seating options in case you want to stay and chill for a bit and not eat in your car but I get it's not ideal do to their location. Depending on the day and whose cooking the quality might be different which is what I experience sometimes. Good to note that if you come on a weekend the line might be longer than usual and it might take longer than on a weekday morning. That said, it's a fantastic spot with delicious food and great vibes.

I think the food was good and they made it fresh. Not a bad burger place. I would come here than other burger places because the food was excellent and the service was on point.

I live all the way on the other side of town and have been wanting to a sandwich from here for the longest. But every time I would come they would already be closed. Luck for me I just so happy to be off yesterday. It was worth the wait. Let me tell you the food here was delicious and fulfilling. The workers were very pleasant and polite. Definitely will be making another trip on my off day for another yummy sandwich .

Great local spot for a cheap bite. Loved the sausage melt and the sausage egg and cheese. Prices are really cheap and just a good bite. Definitely recommend coming here.

Wow, I can't believe it's taken me so long to share my thoughts about Sandwich Inn on Yelp because I've been singing their praises everywhere else!A small building serving up BIG flavors, Sandwich Inn could easily be passed by if you're not looking for it. With a grand sign proclaiming that it's the "oldest restaurant where the locals eat", it's clear that this is a blast from the past. With two drive thru lanes and a menu with breakfast and lunch favorites, the vibe and prices will surely take you back a few decades. Let me just tell you, the food is worth the lunch rush wait! If you're up early and can grab breakfast, even better! Best thing? Breakfast is available all day! My favorites include anything with their thick-cut bacon, okra and their sausage breakfast bowl. I took my friend here and she had a Milkshake and couldn't get enough!The staff here is also amazing. They seem like a tight-knit group based on how well they work together, but I assume you have no choice when you work in such close quarters! I love that the faces are always so friendly and familiar, they truly make the experience even better!My only complaint? - Too. Much. Damn. Mayo. I ask for light mayo, it falls on deaf ears. And there's mayo on most sandwiches, so be prepared to either have none or a helluva lot! LOL, STILL 5-stars!!!

Cold fries, stern eyes and a dry burger I despised.Sandwich Inn has a nifty concept. Drive In fast food place with a blast from the past vibe! What can go wrong? Well definitely not the prices! They were insanely cheap. Burgers starting at 2.79 and the most expensive being a triple triple cheeseburger 4.99 (does that mean 6 patties? Don't worry I was confused by this too). I had 4 cars in front of me so I had to wait on the street to turn into the drive in. This being a fast food place, I expected a quick wait. But was I wrong. I waited over 15 minutes in order to get to the drive thru speaker to order. I ended up ordering a cheeseburger, fries and a strawberry shake! My cheeseburger was dry and there was nothing out of the ordinary. My fries were cold and soggy. The only savior from keeping me hungry was the shake. But it felt as though I could've have gotten this anywhere else without a long wait time.When I got to the window to pay, the cashier was very stern and she picked up a phone call, (which someone called the restaurant) understandable. But I was taken aback from the conversation. Someone called to complain that their fish sandwich was not cooked. She did give him an option of either coming here and getting a new. I'm not sure I want to eat where the locals eat.

Riddle me this: Why is the line for this tiny, little (drive-thru/walk-up only) food shack snaking down the road at 8AM? Oh, I know... it's just that good, that's why! It's simple, almost 70-80's vintage and it's taking names in Gainesville. The breakfast is hot & flavorful. That's their secret, it tastes great. The snaking line moves fairly quickly, and the service is kind. I ordered the sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich, while Mom had the breakfast bowl. My Mom insisted that we swing by this spot before heading to the airport. I'll admit that I was shocked by the line, but after my first bite, I totally understood.

I went on 11/5/2024 about 1:30 PMI Purchased a double double cheeseburger extra pickle. I also purchased a medium onion rings. My meal was not only hot, but fresh! I would absolutely recommend this drive-through restaurant!

The food here is affordable and delicious! the customer service is truly outstanding as all of the employees are extremely kind. Always a pleasure to come eat here.

I love this place, haven't ate there in awhile until yesterday. Everything is great; from the fresh food to the nice workers at the window! 10/10 from me
