The 17.5

The sandwich that built the legend. A towering stack of fresh-cut deli meats and melted cheese on a soft Superior roll — so big it needs two hands and a strategy.

United Meat

Built on the corned beef that made us famous — pickled in Detroit by United Meat & Deli, delivered daily, and cooked fresh on-site all day long. This is what "the biggest" tastes like.

Cuban Reuben

A Detroit-Cuban mashup that has no business being this good — corned beef, Swiss, and the works, pressed hot until the edges crisp. Half Reuben, half Cubano, all ours.

Why Bread Basket

Detroit ingredients. Detroit portions.

Since 1977 we've kept it simple: the best local ingredients, cut and cooked fresh all day, and stacked higher than anybody thinks is reasonable. We agree — and we keep doing it anyway.
