What to Order
Pastrami Sandwich
A classic pastrami on rye, featuring melt-in-your-mouth meat with a perfect smoky tenderness, served on sturdy, beautifully baked rye bread.
"The pastrami practically melts in your mouth. Some pieces have that perfect touch of fat on the edges, adding depth, richness, and that unmistakable smoky tenderness that makes a great pastrami unforgettable."
Sandi Cole
Reuben Sandwich
A grilled pastrami sandwich with melty cheese and tangy sauerkraut, offering a divine combination of flavors and textures.
"It was divine — the kind of sandwich that makes you pause mid-bite just to appreciate what’s happening."
Sandi Cole
Mighty Chocolate Chip Cookie
A famous in-house specialty, this cookie is thick, soft, and massive, making it an essential sweet treat to grab.
"Do not — I repeat, do not — leave Linny’s without grabbing one. In fact, buy three. Trust me, when you get home and take that first bite, you’ll wish you had a couple more waiting on standby. It’s that good."
Sandi Cole
Potato and Pickle Sandwich
A surprisingly delicious vegetarian option, this sandwich is praised for its unique and satisfying flavor profile.
"The potato and pickle sandwich was perfect, and the staff are so lovely (even if they are Arsenal fans)"
Nathan McLaren-Stewart
Knish with Gravy
A savory potato knish, often served with gravy, making for a comforting and highly recommended side or snack.
"But as good is the latke and pickle sandwich and the knish with gravy."
Kevin Lande
House Made Pickled Green Tomatoes
A unique and delicious side, these pickled green tomatoes are a standout item not commonly found elsewhere.
"One of the only places in the city with house made pickled green tomatoes. Pastrami melts in your mouth"

Inside Scoop
- Be aware there is no seating; it's a grab-and-go spot.
- Sandwiches are on the smaller side for the price, so manage expectations for portion size.
- Consider ordering extra pickles, as they don't come standard with sandwiches.
- They can run out of pastrami by mid-afternoon, so plan an earlier visit.
- The interior is designed to look retro, not original.
