The House Roasted Turkey Sandwich is the specific order that earned it a spot in a Reddit comment thread's turkey-sandwich debate alongside Seedo's and Cellars Market — fresh avocado, crispy bacon, tomato, sprouts, and Duke's mayo on toasted sourdough, a build with enough going on that 'just turkey' undersells it completely. Timeout Chicago called the whole concept a genuine culinary hybrid when it opened, and the format tracks: a Loop lunch crowd gets a real sandwich built from butcher-grade meat, and anyone wanting to cook at home can walk out with the raw cuts instead.
It keeps strict weekday-only hours (10am-7pm, closed Saturday and Sunday), built entirely around the Loop's actual working population rather than weekend foot traffic — a specific, deliberate choice that tells you exactly who this shop is for.
