Adam's Sandwich Shop

Okay, this place was here for a while before I finally tried it. And it's fantastic! It's so good, this is the first review I've ever written. And now I go there at least once a week.What makes a great sandwich? Fresh meats and toppings. And always fresh, homemade bread. Adam's has the best bread of any sandwich shop around. A 6-inch there has probably twice the meat (or more) of any chain. My go-to is The Trio and the 3 meat are piled up over an inch thick every time. Soup is $5 and homemade too, and every one I've had has been great. Chicken and dumpling with big chunks of chicken? I'm in!All of Adam's 6-inch sandwiches are $9 or less. The 12-inch versions are an even better deal for $11 to $16--and they're enough for two meals. Why would you ever go to Subway? I'm a huge sandwich guy. I go to Jersey Mike's and Jimmy John's a lot. But this place is a big step up from chains--for basically the same price.Also, I had never met the owner before coming here. We're not relatives or pals. But there is a 1-star review here and that person is clearly out of their mind, talking about stale bread and bad service? I've been there at least 25 times now and the food is amazing every time. So is the service.From my first visit on, I've always been treated like they can't wait to help. When I go now the owner asks me how my dad is (since I told him recently that he's in memory care). That's how you treat customers when you care. I'd be surprised if that one-star review person didn't have some personal axe to grind.Look, I'm a fan of small local businesses who do it right. And you should definitely give this one a chance. Once you do, you'll see how terrific the food and people are.

Been here a couple times, they've got a huge menu, great service, in decent prices. The chicken salad sandwich is fantastic, also tried the hot pastrami, I was hoping for some homemade pastrami, but it's just lunchmeat. Going to try the meatball or chicken cutlet sandwich next.

So I got a sandwich from here on the way to an appointment with my son. The sandwich was made fresh order. Nothing pre-sliced or premade. The food is delicious. Have a cute little deli with lots of options. Definitely a nice local spot that I like to see stick around, I do like all the stuff they had in the store. I do plan on going back to try some of the products to make it home but sandwiches are good. Definitely recommend going and checking this place out and supporting some local. The staff was friendly and attentive to my knee. It was the first custom of the day.

Great place! Fresh sandwiches with amazing bread. Fantastic home made soups! Dont forget to check out the freezer with home made pierogies. The people behind the counter made us feal.like family. This is a gem in McHenry!

Good to have finally tried this place out. High quality sandwiches. I had the Italian and my wife had the turkey. Two 6 inch sandwiches, a bag of chips and a soda was $20. Ten times the quality of subway at a price that's lower than subway

I have been looking for a deli that makes a muffuletta. I found one today just in the nick of time; today is Lundi Gras, Fat Monday. I ordered a full size Lotta Muffuletta for my wife and me. It's $17.99 and before you say that's a lot of money for a sandwich, and it is, the round muffuletta sandwich is cut into four wedges. It can feed four people. I say it's a great value. A half sandwich is $9.00 and feeds two. The gold standard for muffulettas is Central Grocery in New Orleans. Is Adam's Deli as good? No, it's not. Central Grocery uses a denser bread and Adam's uses focaccia and it holds together very well. The meats and cheeses at Adam's Deli are different. Would I order it again? Definitely, but I want to try some of their other sandwiches first.It's a great sandwich.

Was pleasantly surprised how good their food was. Picked up sandwiches to go, it was good quick service. The Ruben was incredible - it was loaded with meat and I loved that they put the sauer kraut between the meat. My brother got the chicken cutlet bullet for the second time and he loved it. Definitely recommend.

It is one of the freshest sandwiches I've ever had. The jardiniere is just right. The meat is cut to order t he bread is soft with a crunchy coating. I had the 6 inch and it was a lot of sandwich.

Awesome Sandwiches!!!Great service and very polite!!Very clean inside the store with a good selection of local items

Excellent homemade periogi with a lot of varieties to choose from, including blueberry & meat filled. Their sandwiches are on their delicious homemade Italian bread or wheat. Crusty on the outside. I ordered the trio sandwich with roast beef, Kraus ham & oven roasted turkey, mayo & veggies. It was excellent with a lot of the three meats. They have gluten free options & healthy options, including a focaccia hot option. They're right next to McDonald's in McHenry and share the currency exchange building. They sell other food items and sweets, etc.
