Is Fremont the New Sandwich District?
One reader thinks so.

Every couple months brings a new crop of sandwich joints but through them all prevails Pioneer Square, the city’s unofficial district for sliced bread.
The neighborhood is home to some of Seattle’s tastier sandwich counters: There’s Salumi, Delicatus, BuiltBurger, the Berliner, and Tat’s, where workers installed a webcam for monitoring the always-gnarly lines.
But as one (possibly) prescient commenter notes on this article charting Pioneer Square’s resurgence, Fremont is no sandwich slouch either: “What about the corner in Fremont where you now have UNEEDA Burger, Dot’s, and Paseo???”
Let’s not forget, several blocks down from those spots sits Homegrown, Baguette Box, Royal Grinders, and Blue Moon Burgers.
Do you guys agree? Is the Center of the Universe destined for sandwich greatness?

well, by the logic you’re using what about capitol hill?
baguette box
homegrown
lil woody’s
honeyhole
other coast cafe
grubwich
dinette (lunch only)
blue moon burger
marination station (if you’re including burgers i think their sliders should be included)
what about mexican restaurants serving tortas (rancho bravo, poquitos and bimbos)?
but, i’d pull all the burger/slider joints out of the list (as well as the mexican restaurants). while technically a sandwich (meat and fixin’s between bread), to me burgers/sliders fall into another category. even with pulling those out, cap hill has 6 sandwich shops to pioneer square’s four and fremont’s five.
i’ll give those other neighborhoods their due, but i think that capitol hill is where sandwich greatness reigns.
Fremont also has: Marination Mobile
Pioneer also has Calozzi
Cap hill: has prolly more… but nothing really sticks out…
Salumi’s, Tat’s & Calozzi’s are the Sandwich Trifecta of Seattle
