Joe's Sandwich Bar

Overview

Serving up loaded vegan sandwiches on Iggy's bread since 2018, Joe's Sandwich Bar is Sydney CBD haven for a hearty veg-heavy lunch that will cost what a sandwich should.

Using the loaves of one of Sydney's best bakeries as a base for the piled-high sambos, Joe's really shines through its inventive meat-free fillings. Take the miso eggplant for example, which pairs sticky sweet slices of eggplant with furikake, avocado, Japanese slaw and pickled ginger. It's magnificent.

Other options on the menu include a classic reuben created with tempeh instead of corned beef, a chipotle pumpkin number, the Joe's take on a BLAT, a smokey potato sambo and a chilli broccolini option.

Located on Kent Street in the heart of the CBD, the sandwich shop is a great value option, offering its sangas for just $13.90 among streets filled with quick lunch options that tip well past $20. Just make sure to take your lunch break on time as the shop is only open 11.30am–2pm, Monday–Friday.
