Overview

In 1762, John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, came up with an invention that changed dining forever. With a serving of roast beef placed between two slices of bread, the Earl created a complete meal he could eat with his hands. Brilliant! The Sandwich was born. Some 250 years later, Earl of Sandwich® restaurants have taken that idea and crafted it into a made-to-order, freshly baked Sandwich like no other.

At Earl of Sandwich we don’t serve mere sandwiches. We serve The Sandwich. We roast our beef on premises daily to ensure that every single Sandwich is served at the peak of freshness. We add fresh vegetables, gourmet condiments and generous slices of the finest cheeses. Every Sandwich is assembled on our own signature artisan bread, which bakes fresh with each Sandwich. As your Sandwich bakes in our ovens, the meats and cheeses are melded, releasing their flavors together in spectacular fashion.

It’s a distinctly unique method that results in an amazingly fresh, tasty Sandwich.

There’s only one ingredient missing from the World’s Original Sandwich:

You.

Products & Services

Earl of Sandwich a franchise opportunity from Franchise Genius

Our family knows about great sandwiches: we invented the sandwich and have been eating sandwiches since 1792.

Using 250 years of experience, today we have set up Earl of Sandwich to make delicious sandwiches for you.

Our secret is to bake the bread when you order, roast our meats every morning, and use the traditional family recipes.

We are a family who loves making sandwiches and sincerely hope you enjoy eating them.

Our namesake invented The Sandwich, but we couldn’t stop there. Every item on the Earl of Sandwich menu is created with an emphasis on freshness and great taste. We offer breakfast items, warm soups and fresh salads, and in keeping with the Earl’s original inspiration of “the portable meal,” we’ve added fresh wraps to our menu as well.
