I ♥ Meat and Bread!



Packing Meat!

You definately won't mind this kind of meat on your bones. Using the finest local produce and ingredients, delicious man-made sandwiches can be enjoyed at this Gastown sandwich hot spot. Inspired by a carved-on-the-spot joint in Dublin where co-owners Cord Jarvie and Frankie Harrington used to share meals, the hot meats are cooked on site and served with thier signature homemade mustard. If it’s not already sold out, their mainstay Porchetta is a must. An impressive package for sure!  From the store decor to the custom leather aprons amd the hunky men who wear them, this stylish sandwich shop has it all.  Meat & Bread, 370 Cambie St; www.meatandbread.ca
