Fairfield’s Best Witches are Sandwiches!
By Visit Fairfield | October 15, 2023
They say the best witches are sandwiches, and we certainly agree! Here in Fairfield, we've got some of the best sandwich shops around. Locally owned and operated, these shops know how to bring the flavor and make a mean sandwich. From smoked cheeseburgers to Bahn Mi's and Nashville Hot Chicken sandwiches, you’ll never be bored. So come with us on a quick tour of Fairfield's sandwiches.
Bahn Mi from The Broth Lab
This bahn mi has it all - flavor profiles from across Asia combined with plenty of fresh herbs that will make your taste buds sing along. Stacked high with your choice of either tender, juicy braised pork belly OR crispy, flavorful tofu. It's topped with a signature basil mint aioli, pickled carrot + cucumber, shaved jalapeño, and fresh cilantro. All nestled on a soft, fluffy ciabatta bun. Trust us, one bite of this and you'll be hooked!
The Good Egg from Taco Dreams
If you're looking for the perfect breakfast sandwich, look no further than the Good Egg sandwich from Taco Dreams. While we usually dream of tacos at this restaurant, this is also the place to have a “Breakfast of Champions”. The English muffins are perfectly toasted and the eggs are cooked to perfection - not too runny and not too dry. The pepper jack cheese adds a bit of spice, while the ancho chili aioli gives it a little bit of heat. It's the perfect way to start your day!
Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich from Lunchbox
There's something about the Nashville Hot Chicken that will make you weak in the knees. Maybe it's the juicy, all-natural fried chicken breast, or the housemade proprietary hot chili oil. Or maybe it's the lemon aioli, house pickles, and citrus slaw on brioche that just makes your heart flutter. Whatever it is, we’re totally in love with this dish. And we think you'll be head-over-heels in love too.
Smoked Cheeseburger from Sweet ‘n Saucy
Oh baby, you're in for a real treat with this Smoked Cheeseburger. This half-pound patty is perfectly seasoned and comes right off the grill, cooked to juicy perfection. The smokey flavors are perfectly balanced by the freshness of the lettuce, tomato, and onion. And who doesn’t love the addition of bacon? This sandwich redefines what a lunchtime burger should be. Try it for yourself and see just how delicious it is.
Caprese Burger from Fishback & Stephenson Cider House
The Caprese Burger is a work of art with fresh mozzarella, tomato, basil and a balsamic vinegar reduction on ciabatta bread. The perfect bite creates a flavor profile that is out-of-this-world delicious. The beef is juicy and flavorful and made from locally raised apple-finished steak. The cheese is melted and gooey, the veggies are fresh and crunchy, and the brioche bun is soft and fluffy. This burger is so good, you'll be smacking your lips long after you've finished eating.
Falafel from the Hungry Camel
Looking for something different and with an international flair? Try the 'Classic Falafel', a heaping portion of falafels, hummus, and tahini nestled inside a freshly baked pita, making for one flavor-packed meal. The falafels are crispy on the outside and nice and fluffy on the inside - and they're packed with all sorts of goodness like garlic, onion, cumin, and chickpeas. Like it spicy? Then be sure to ask for some spicy harissa sauce to kick it up a notch. if you're in the mood for something new or simply looking for a tasty vegetarian option be sure to check out the Hungry Camel! You won't be disappointed!
