About Ike’s Love & Sandwiches
Ike’s Love & Sandwiches “Ain’t your Momma’s Sandwich Shop!” In 2007, a rebel with a dream opened a small sandwich shop in San Francisco’s Castro District. Lines around the block, craveable secret ingredients and inventive flavor combinations sparked a phenomenon spreading love and sandwiches across the country. Whether you eat vegetarian, vegan, halal, gluten-free, or meat, your first Ike’s sandwich sets you on an epic quest to try all the endless combinations and over 800 signature sandwiches. Our sandwiches have flavors and combinations you won’t find anywhere else like San Francisco’s Roti Roti halal chicken, delicious pastrami, Max’s Dutch Crunch Bread and 5 different plant-based proteins.
Our Dutch Crunch bread paired with Ike’s secret “Dirty Sauce,” a creamy garlic aioli toasted right into the bread, is as iconic as Ike Shehadeh himself. Ike’s cartoon caricature watches over each guest as they explore the menu of eclectically named sandwiches including tributes to local celebrities and athletes. To show his love, Ike includes a sweet surprise with every order, a Raspberry Blow Pop or Caramel Apple Pop. Order your next mind-blowing sandwich at ikessandwich.com.
