"Dom’s Subs makes killer sandwiches with an Argos catalogue amount of filling. The insides range from mortadella, bresaola, and more cold cuts, to Thai ground chicken, or tenderstem broccoli with confit garlic. The vehicle is a freshly baked, soft but crisp sub and together, you have a handful of the best kind. There are a couple of seats inside but your best bet is to get a sandwich to take away." - jake missing, sinead cranna, daisy meager
"“People debate their favourite cuisines but mine is pretty straightforward. It’s sandwiches. And yes, that is a cuisine. A sandwich is a liminal space for food. Its boundaries are non-existent, its potential fillings endless. I knew that Dom’s knew this the first time I ate one of their subs, but it went to a whole new level when I ate The Feliz Mama-Dad. It’s a vegan brussels sprout Christmas sub. Which reads like the kind of thing that sets some people’s alarm bells ringing. And it should do, for all the right reasons. The hot and numbing sprouts, seasoned with Sichuan pepper, dance along your tongue. The Xinxiang seasoned crisps are the best crisps in a sandwich I’ve ever had (and that’s a busy podium), while the vegan Chinkiang mayo delicately cuts through everything. Christmas or not, this is just an amazing sandwich.” - Jake Missing, Staff Writer" - oliver feldman, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"The sub is an unappreciated sandwich type on this side of the pond. Yes there’s the chain-that-shall-not-be-named, but that’s not the best way to get your sub fix. You’ll realise this once you eat from Dom’s, a takeaway spot on Hackney Road. There’s the L’Italiano loaded with bresaola, coppa, provolone, mortadella, and more. There’s The Grapow, a Thai-inspired sub that caused us to almost unintentionally amputate our right (sandwich-gripping) thumb. After you finish, there’s the feeling that you and the menu have lots of unfinished business." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
"London “Brits absolutely j’adore putting anything and everything between two slices, and a big deli sandwich has that unique dislocate-your-jaw energy we’re down with. But despite the UK’s football fan-like worshipping of things in bread, we don’t really do deli-style sandwiches over here. Which is weird. Anyway, this is where Dom’s Subs come in. It’s a little takeaway spot making gargantuan sandwiches on Hackney Road. The subs are, quite simply, sext worthy. After my first time I sent precisely a thousand pictures of this bresaola, mortadella, salami, gabagool-packed thing to anyone and everyone. A few weeks later a much dirtier picture of me and the Gennaro was doing the rounds. ‘What’s that on your face’ one of my friends replied. It had been a hot ten minutes with several inches of slow roast beef brisket. ‘Oh that, that’s just homemade cheez whiz.’” - Jake Missing, London Staff Writer" - team infatuation
"Dom’s Subs' festive menu reads like a leftovers enthusiast who's been under the tutelage of Heston Blumenthal and Dr. Emmett Brown. The City and Hackney sandwich shop’s menu jumps from Santa’s Little Smoker (ft. smoked turkey, pork stuffing, chicken mayo, smoked cheese, and cranberry hot honey) to Jeru The Damaga (with roasted jerusalem artichokes, crispy chilli kale, and arbol salsa). And finally, The Yule Hog, an achiote-braised pork belly beast, complete with cumin and raisin mole, and pickled slaw." - Jake Oliver
