Saw this place on Instagram so I drove over to try it ! Very delicious I got the pastrami breakfast sandwich!!! To me it was great but I think the owner or manager wasnt satisfied with how mine looked offered me another. This just shows how much they care about the quality of their food !!!! I will definitely be back
Small sandwich shop with a variety of hot and cold sandwiches. Sandwiches have fresh ingredients and great flavors. Location has a simple kids menu as well. They are located on a corner block with other food businesses. Businesses share a nice open, outdoor seating area perfect for kids to stretch their legs. The sandwich shop also operates a small coffee booth on the property which is a great option for after eating and hanging out.
Great NEW spot in Riverside! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The meal was excellent! The sandwiches were stacked and full of flavor. We don’t have anything quite like this in the central Riverside area. My sister and I split The Cap and the Chicken Caprese, and both were amazing! Definitely worth trying more than one sandwich. I also grabbed a breakfast toast. The Peanut Butter Picnic did not disappoint, it was so good! Perfect for breakfast or even an afternoon sweet treat. Even during their soft opening, everything ran so smoothly and the staff was so friendly and welcoming. If this is just the beginning, I can’t wait to see what the grand opening brings! Crust is officially my new favorite Riverside spot!
Lovely little breakfast/lunch spot. My waze gave weird directions, but it's on the corner of Central & De Anza. Everything I tried was fresh & delicious. The Orchard toast, The Classic toast, BLT, Tomato soup, The Cap, Turkey Club, Market Salad, the house made potato chips are ADDICTIVE and they have the good nugget crushy ice. I'd highly suggest getting bacon on ANYTHING because their bacon is so perfectly cooked & excellent quality. I can't wait to try their coffee when it opens in a few weeks! They have the kindest people working there and the food is made with top notch ingredients. You can taste the difference.
Such a cute little spot with amazing food! The bread they use is top tier and the ingredients are so fresh. Great selection of sandwiches and toast with some really unique flavors along with the classics. They are also one of the only few places with Mr PIBB!! So happy that this shop opened in Riverside.
