Freddie's Sandwiches

Decades of Deliciousness!I've been a customer at Freddie's Sandwiches for over twenty-five years and live just two blocks away. When I wanted to update my review, I realized that the comments from my 2016 review still hold true! So, I won't repeat that they still make the best sandwiches for the price, but I will share that I've added their Club Sandwich to my list of favorites.Freddie's Club Sandwich comes with ham, turkey, and bacon, and you can add any combination of mustard, mayo, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and onions. The bread makes a huge difference, and if I may, I'd like to give you a hint: Go with hard sourdough bread, ask for it to be gutted out and toasted, and go light with the mayo. You will enjoy it.Their coffee is also pretty good. It's drip coffee only, but the owner is a coffee enthusiast like myself and always has fresh, hot coffee available upfront. If coffee isn't your thing, they have plenty of non-alcoholic options to choose from. Their deli salads are made daily and can be a great companion to your sandwich.The store is small, and there is no room to sit inside, but they have three or four small tables and chairs available outside if you and a companion or two want to have your sandwiches there. The owner seems very serious at first, but after chatting and exchanging pleasantries, you'll find that he's actually a very nice and helpful person, as are the rest of his staff. They sometimes fill in behind the counter if he's not around.

Whenever I'm in the area and need lunch to-go I always stop by Freddie's. Love their soft sourdough bread, and often share my sandwich with my sister so I like that we can make each half suitable for any dietary restrictions (ei. one half with cheese). It does get very busy and crowded inside, but I wait outside for a few minutes and come back in when I think it's ready. I also like how the menu is posted inside with a small notecard near the register when you order.

Great place. Liked the chicken salad! Lots of locals. Benches outside to sit on. Staff was helpful too.

Great sandwich! Placed a group order and it was well packed and labelled, fresh, reasonably priced and huge.

I've been coming here since I was in middle school and this place is still amazing. The staff is super friendly and there's always a line when I'm there. I ordered a large hot pastrami with provolone on dutch with everything in it. From first glance it looks deliciousss, and it most definitely was deliciousss. The pastrami was so flavorful and with all the toppings and mayo and mustard it was top notch. My girlfriend ordered the cold turkey sandwich on dutch and she rated it very high on her list of best sandwiches in SF. Freddie and his business has been here for decades and there's a reason why. Overall, I would give Freddie's a 4.5/5 stars. Only con I have is that their sandwiches are on the more expensive size which is $15 with an option for cheese for an additional $1. But we are in North Beach and that's the price you gotta pay in a beautiful neighborhood!

a NoNo deli (north of north beach: from Lombard to bay) that's been around forever, great friendly service. freddy himself still mans he helm. fresh ingredients. sandwiches come in two affordable sizes. next time you're in NONO grab and sand which..

Ran by here on Lime scooters for a quick sandwich for lunch! They were fast, friendly & affordable! The sandwiches were huge & tasty too! I'd recommend trying Freddie's if you're looking for a quality sandwich!

i would die for the italian combo with garlic and mild pepperoncini spread. still my favorite sandwich in the bay due to the spreads, shredded soft lettuce, and hearty sliced meat ratios. i try to visit every time i'm in sf! service is always great, I've called ahead and food was ready for pick up pretty quickly. They haven't forgotten spreads or toppings in the 4+ times I've been there, even when ordering over the phone 30 minutes before closing. ambience: it's a local gem in north beach with limited metered and street parking outside, they also offer free coffee inside. the chip and drink selection looks pretty extensive too!

10/10 chicken salad sandwich on sourdough. I don't live in the bay but I am still thinking about this sandwich I had a few weeks ago...

Very quick service to get our sandwiches and well priced - the guy let us try the Dutch crunch before ordering. Definitely recommend the hot and mild peppers. No indoor seating, some outdoor spots but such a short walk to Washington square park.
