Sometimes what you’re really craving is a great sandwich. Nothing fancy, just something stacked with flavor and tucked into fresh bread.
Luckily, Chandler has plenty of options. From classic deli subs and hearty cheesesteaks to global favorites like bánh mì and tortas ahogadas, the city’s sandwich scene has something for just about every appetite. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch between meetings or refueling after a day out, these local spots are a great place to start.
Classic Sandwiches & Subs
Retro’s Subs & Brews
Retro’s brings together two things that always pair well: creative sandwiches and craft beer. The menu mixes classic subs with some more inventive options, but the Paisley Park Pesto is a standout. It’s stacked with roast turkey, bacon, Swiss, avocado and pesto mayo—big flavor without feeling over-the-top. With its relaxed atmosphere and rotating beer list, Retro’s works just as well for a laid-back lunch as it does for a casual evening hangout.

Wildflower
A longtime Valley favorite, Wildflower has built its reputation on fresh soups, salads, and sandwiches that feel simple but thoughtfully made. One of the highlights is the Chipotle Chicken Melt, layered with all-natural chicken breast, Swiss, poblano peppers, caramelized onions, pepper relish, avocado and chipotle sauce on grilled sourdough. It’s warm, balanced and consistently satisfying.

Cheba Hut
If you’re looking for something with personality, Cheba Hut delivers. Known for its toasted subs and playful vibe, the shop leans into bold flavors. The Kali Mist roasted turkey, chipotle mayo, jalapeños, bacon, pepper jack and avocado—brings just the right amount of heat while still feeling hearty and comforting.

Hot Sandwiches & Cheesesteaks
Eddie’s Philly
When cheesesteak cravings hit, Eddie’s Philly keeps things classic. The traditional Philly Cheesesteak with their signature red sauce is a solid starting point, but the Loaded Cheesesteak takes things further with mushrooms, peppers, onions, lettuce, tomato and plenty of melted cheese.
Address: 3016 N Dobson Rd Suit 9, Chandler, AZ 85224
Forefather’s Cheesesteaks
Well known around the East Valley, Forefather’s takes its cheesesteaks seriously. Build your sandwich with grilled steak or chicken, your choice of cheese (including the classic Cheese Whiz), plus veggies and sauces. Add a side of fries (regular, sweet potato or cheese) and you’ve got a meal that fully satisfies.
Address: 1075 W. Queen Creek Rd. #1, Chandler, AZ 85248
Outta Bronx
Bringing a bit of New York deli energy to Chandler, Outta Bronx is known for its generously stacked sandwiches. The Empire Steak is a standout, filled with thinly sliced beef, grilled peppers, mushrooms, onions and melted provolone and American cheese on a buttery French baguette.
Address: 1175 W Ray Rd #105, Chandler, AZ 85224
Philly’s Famous
As the name suggests, Philly’s Famous sticks close to the traditional cheesesteak playbook. The Bellyfiller lives up to its name, loaded with grilled onions, mushrooms, sweet bell peppers and melted white American cheese on a soft Italian roll.
Address: 1250 N. Alma School Rd. #31, Chandler, AZ 85224
Global Sandwich Flavors
Tortas Ahogadas Guadalajara
For something completely different, try a torta ahogada. This Mexican specialty features a crusty roll stuffed with seasoned shredded pork and then, quite literally, drowned in a rich, spicy red sauce. It’s messy, bold and absolutely worth the napkins.
Address: 518 N. Arizona Ave., Chandler, AZ 85225
Lee's Sandwiches
For Vietnamese bánh mì, Lee's Sandwiches is a reliable go-to. Their baguettes are baked fresh and filled with savory meats, pickled daikon and carrots, cilantro and jalapeños. The BBQ Pork Bánh Mì is especially popular, and it pairs perfectly with a Vietnamese iced coffee.
