Green Shack Market Place

Man, if you never been to the green shack, you’re missing out. You have to get there early because he gets packed real fast. They have great customer service. I love the whole environment. I’ve been coming here since I was a kid. My mom used to come here and pay your bills. I really recommend you come and check them out. Best subs in San Bernardino.

I do love the fact that these little places exist and you can tell they have been here forever. But there are concerns with this place for sure. Before let me tell you that the prices are still reasonable. The food still OK. I had a small Tuna and it was really good. The tuna was not stinky, it didnt smell or tasted old. I was very pleased with it. I would had prefer lettuce intead of the coldslaw and I will tell you why below. Besides the tuna, the pickles and the coldslaw there was nothing else, even though the presentations showed more veggies. I also had the Nashville chicken sandwich with fries. The chicken patty's breading was good not heavy and the chicken had a spicy flavor but it wasnt spicy. Again, instead of lettuce it had coldslaw. And even though I paid $1 for jalapeños I ended getting five slices that were mostly butts. The buns were really good. But the coldslaw made them soggy and it was too much it took away from the chicken flavor. Now lets talk about the elephant in the room.... this is so you know what youre walking into and know what to expect. First, the service is closer to terrible than ok. And that goes for the girl taking the order to the girls doing the sandwiches. It can be a lot better. Customer service is not there strong quality at all. Second, I didnt get to see what grading this place has but it needs cleaning and better food handling. The person doing both of my sandwiches had gloves that he used to open and close the latches on the prepping station and the fridge. But then he opened the coldslaw and with the same gloves he scoop a handful of the coldslaw and placed it in both of my sandwiches. Not with a spoon or spatula but with his hands even though the latches on both appliances are open and close constantly and most likely are dirty. I didnt see one cleaning rag at all. I saw another girls taking out the trash and cardboard at the same time she was prepping a sandwich, I get you want to multitask but not with my food... please!!! My sanwich came with fries, but the oil that the fries were being fried smelled like it had been used for days, it was passed the usage and most likely the heat threshold so it was fuming. I couldnt eat my fries because they tasted like burned stalled oil. If you can, order because if you see how they prep the food, you probably won't eat it. Again, am grateful I have this place so close and I did love the tuna but the way the food was prepped left me stomach sick. So thread lightly and if you see something say something. At the end of the day we are paying for a service and instead of just making this the standard we need to say something so they can be better. I want this place to be better so I can feel good about eating their food.

I lived in San Bernardino for 28 years and never ate at the Green Shack. I drove past it many times and never had the slightest desire to check it out. One day after seeing a video on YouTube, I had to see what it was all about! Do yourself a favor and don't wait 28 years to try this amazing place. The vibes are welcoming, layout is unorthodox and the food is some of the best food I've eaten in San Bernardino. We tried the "definitely smash burger" lol... and the "green shack signature". This sandwich and burger were delicious! I highly recommend visiting this place asap!

Love this place!!! Hands down the BEST SANDWICHES I have ever had....for many years. Been coming since I was 12, now I bring my children. One of the best GEMS left in San Bernardino!! Familiar amazing staff (Katy is my girl) definitely friendly service. Be prepared for a wait, but I promise you its worth it. They also cater!! Prices are comparable to other places, but quality, freshly made food takes the cake. Their is no lasting impression, im coming from Victorville. Speaks for itself. 🫡😁

Ordered delivery for the I'm Stuffed brisket shackwich, which was as usual excellent. However the Strawberry cheesecake was such a disappointment. They have gone with a different "Strawberry " type gel, with only a hint of Strawberry flavor, and no actual fruit. There was no graham cracker crust in the dish, and they have raised the price by $3.00. It has always been a favorite dessert, but sadly, not anymore!!

I was extremely disappointed. For nearly $24 for one sandwich, the sandwich was much smaller than before and had little to no meat. This is not the quality this place used to offer. The Joker and the Thief was overly salty and overcooked. I won’t be returning !

Ordered delivery and got a meatball sub (large), and the esquites. The meatball sub was outrageously good. The bread is nice and soft but it held firm and didn’t become a soggy mess from the marinara, which happens a lot with meatball sandwiches. The meatballs were also very tender, which is something else that a lot of places seem to drop the ball on. Sauce was delicious, plenty of cheese, great sandwich all around. The corn was also quite tasty, though do be warned it’s got a decent bit of heat (or at least mine did). I liked that and thought it was really good, but something to be aware of. Solid, solid local spot.

It was the absolute best pastrami sandwich I have ever had. I recommend the joker and the thief. Pastrami and Brisket, come on! You can't go wrong. The sides are AWESOME as well. The staff were friendly and service with a smile. I will be craving this place. I can see why this place is a San Bernadino staple. GREAT FOOD !!!!!!!!! Thank you to the young man who helped me. You, sir, have a great attitude, and it was a pleasure talking with you.

THE BEST. It's not about "if you know, you know". Everybody knows this is top tier. I've been getting sandwiches for a cool minute but just recently tried the smash burger. Amazing.

I've been wanting to try this place for almost a year now. I drive by most days on my way to work, the reviews seem pretty solid, etc. Some colleagues grabbed takeout a couple of weeks ago. The Wednesday special (pastrami Sammy and fries) as tasty but the wait for them to return to work was a little excessive. We like to patronize nearby restaurants for group meetings we host at our work location so I convinced three other colleagues to visit today in hopes of trying more options for an upcoming meeting. We ordered online at 11:32 am; shortly after I received a confirmation email saying our order would be ready by 12:33 pm. Four of us left work to pick up the order and hopefully enjoy lunch at the location in a small garden area there?? I never got to see where they had hoped to sit. We arrived at 12:35 pm to find a long line of people. I was told at 12:40 pm that they were working on our order. Around 12:50 pm, I finally saw the young lady who would be working on our order turn our ticket around to read and start preparing it. While waiting, we stood in front of the counter by their grill. At about 1:05 pm, the young lady preparing our food informed me that they had run out of wheat bread so she "just made it on white bread." My friend commented that it was not right that she had made that decision on her own, especially since some people have allergies, etc. It's not like we hadn't been there for quite some time for her to ask us if it was OK and this was simply not good customer service. She was not happy that he had stated his opinion but kept doing what she was doing and seemed very "too bad, so sad" about it. When the order was done she just placed the bag on the counter and walked away. We finally walked out with our order at 1:12 pm and had to head straight back to work since our lunch hour was consumed waiting. We got back to work, divvied up our order and that was that. My cold "When in Rome" was pretty good; it had flavor and good textures. My friends said their "Bread Zeppelin" and "Swine" sandwiches were "just okay." I can't accept a 1 hour + 45 minute wait time for sandwiches, I am not sure if we will be back and I am certain we won't use them for a group catering order. I have ZERO confidence that they would have our order done on time even with 24-hour required notice. As we were leaving another customer stopped and asked me what time we had placed our order and if it was online. After telling her "Yes" she said "Dang, we are in the same place as you. We ordered around 11:15 am." She was super disappointed, as well. Having been a former restaurant manager, I also can't begin to tell you some health concerns I noticed in the time that we were waiting. I do wish them all the best! With the amount of people waiting patiently for their food, they must be doing something right, I just don't believe I can intentionally make that choice again.

I'm born and raised in San Bernardino and this is the first time I have ever eat here. Not located in the greatest area of San Bernardino, but being raised here it didn't bother me. We must have come right before rush hr because by the time we left there as a long line. Everyone was nice, and the wait time was a little long but the sandwiches were worth the wait. We ordered the following items and our review for each Green Shake signature- it was a good sandwich over all except a little heavy on the mayo and not enough oil and vinegar When in Rome- good sandwich, the bread was a little too toasted for my liking so next time I'll request my bread not to be toasted Smash or pass- the burger patties were leaking in a little flavor. The fries were not their favorite they said they little oily.

It's the green shack folks but their sandwiches are amazing. This one's called the joker and the thief. Partaking, burnt ends their sauce aka mustard, pickles. Super soft bread. Under &10

Man, if you never been to the green shack, you're missing out. You have to get there early because he gets packed real fast. They have great customer service. I love the whole environment. I've been coming here since I was a kid. My mom used to come here and pay your bills. I really recommend you come and check them out. Best subs in San Bernardino.

Great sandwiches. Takes long for food to be ready so place a phone order. It's inside a convenience store and they have a small patio out in the back for customers to wait.

Sandwich was delicious meat taste so fresh and bread was perfectly toasted ! Love how everything is also chopped up nicely

Went in to try it for the first time, you guys were out of roast beef, bacon, your banana pudding, cheesecakes and your elotes. After trying to order a sandwich, and you guys were out of so much we tried to get at least an elote and the girl at the register rung us up for one and then realized after we were charged you guys were out of corn for an elote so she had to void the transaction. She should have checked before she rung us up... Also the location is in a super sketch area Definitely will not be returning...

Thia place is a hidden gem!! Everything i get from here is amazing. its always a but busy. So order ahead. Nice staff. Its in the hopd juat FYI. several bums, homeless and drug activity all around the parking lot and just outside the front door . Welcome to san bernardino.

This place service is slow af and the short worker who looks like she hates her life is definitely rude AF she pushed our order to the bottom of the line, she put onions on my wife's sandwich which she specifically requested no onions, they gave me 3 grilled onions and one random uncooked onion and they gave us soggy fries wtf is this service first time I ate here went great. Idk if it's cause my wife was with me and they had a problem with her order or what but this place definitely not recommended F -

Amazing Taste! Our company pre-ordered a 36 inch sandwich with meat & veggies/ tomato the side. Wow it was delicious! This was an easy task to order and pickup. Keep in Mind they place the sandwich on a board that needs to be returned &. Deposit is given back. Overall happy bellies from the great food & experience. Thanks GS for a great sandwich again!!!!

Hidden in San Bernardino, no not the best neighborhood, no not the newest building, but the food and customer service are great! Good food takes a minute to come out but they make it fresh to order. There is a small liquor store and a drink shop inside as well. A 20 minute drive from where I live but well worth it. Get there early

Food was amazing. Ordered the Joker, their pastrami sandwich. Loved how their pastrami was grilled, with onions on a bread. Service takes a bit but you know that sandwich is coming out hot and fresh.

Hidden gem that's been part of San Berdo for years! Had me the 12" Joker & Thief... Come hungry because the meat portions are filling. Very tasty, best sandwich I've had. Quotes of the day are an added bonus...lol.. A definite must of you're in the area!

This place has been on my list for a while. I'm glad I was finally able to try it out! My husband and I popped in and were a little confused because it's attached to/inside of a little convenience store. Not the nicest but we didn't care! The women working were so kind and welcoming. We ordered Castro's Church, The Joker, and the jalapeño potato salad. It was all delicious!! I would recommend making the salad a bit creamier, though. I regret not also getting the Truffle Mac N Cheese. Next time! It seems people (in the reviews) were turned off because this place is definitely lived in, but we loved it! Thanks for the good food and kindness, ladies!

They gave me all burnt bottom of brisket i ordered a briskety split last time it was half bread

I didn't care for the sandwich I got number 3 Bread Zeppelin didn't like the meat it was to salty,fries to greasy ,I tried the potato salad I guess that is what it was didn't enjoy it and banana pudding wasn't good either it had no bananas the custard was box made ,their very pricey ,me and my family drove from hemet and Riverside,I saw the place online,the cashier was very nice,they will make no mistake announcing your tips over the loud speaker so others will tip,eating in the back I don't recommend it's dark and not very clean ,something smelled back their ,I thought the top we where under would cave in.it's not a good area.I must say they had people coming in to get food,we definitely won't be coming back.its a storefront market.

Green Shack is the BEST sandwich place in San Bernardino been going for years Food 10/10 -Service 10/10-Ambiance 7/10 great place

Had the joker on a roll and the green shack on squaw bread. The pastrami was hot and tasty and the roll nice and toasty. Good portions of meat. The green shack on squaw bread was delicious. It's hard to find places that have squaw bread but that's a great choice for this sandwich. Also had the street corn side and it was good. The Mac side was ok and the potato salad had to much salt so nothing special about the sides but the sandwiches were delicious.

The best hidden gem in San berdoo. The prices are great and the portions are huge. The very best thing about green shack is the menu that tastes so so good. Seriously the food is the best tasting I've had in years.

We always use Uber. The food is great. My favorite is there sandwiches they have plenty of mear anc many kinds. My favorite is Turkey sliced think. They have a cute patio.

It was busy but worth the wait. Pastrami is soooo good!! I would definitely go back..Im a honest reviewer so i will be real ,the pasta salad needed a little work but everything else was good

Great food Miss their Lobster Mobster Sandwich but the food is good. also the business has great electronic services while you wait on your food

My daughter and I went there tonight. Took them 25 minutes to make her order 2 sandwiches. No one in front of us. Talk and pause Pause and talk! If they would stop chit chatting so much we could of been out of there so much faster and they are just so slow! Oh and the mac and cheese disgusting no salt no seasonings of any kind! If the sandwiches themselves werent so good Id never go back.

Good sandwiches and quick service also I like the fortune I get at the end of the order

Great sandwich shop. Very popular spot, which relates to a wait in line to be served, but the sandwiches were well worth it. A suggestion if you're ordering for lunch, call the order in ahead of time. Yes I will visit this restaurant again in the future.

Tried the green shack signature sub as recommended by Hashslices on IG . It was pretty good ! I give it a good 8/10 .

Dynamite food! Watch out, because they run out of things - make sure you call in your order (don't do it online) to make sure you're get what you're angling for. But when you do... ka-kow! It's gonna be delicious and big enough for two meals. The cold sandwiches are dynamite; I stay away from the hot sandwiches now b/c I've found them to be too salty for me? But what can I say, The Green Shack keeps me coming back when I'm around.

Interesting location (shared space inside with a liquor store, travel agency, coffee shop and something else...), but the sandwiches are good.

I've heard about this place for over 20 years! Not sure why I waited so long to try it, but glad I did! This was one of the most amazing sandwiches I've ever had! Fresh and made to oder. I had the cold cut snack attack on squaw bread with a side of jalapeno potato salad. My husband had the 8 baller meatball sub smothered with melted mozzarella cheese! Both were AMAZING We will definatley be back!!

Laziest workers. Took over 40 minutes to make five to eight sandwiches for all the five customers waiting. Asked for a refund due to wait and was rudely refused. Will never come back. What a joke.

The service was great as soon as we walked in. We got a very warm and personal welcome. Feels like those bomb food places you find hidden in the middle of Chicago. The sandwich shack is inside a liquor store. The wait was terribly long for a sandwich. I kept seeing people walk in, order and walk out with their food. I was definitely waiting long for my food. They don't have vegan option which is why I added an updated menu. I came here for a vegan sandwich they had five months ago according to another review. Parking was on site. There is no seating inside. The sandwich itself was okay. I asked for it with no cheese and advised I was vegan. They proceeded to add mayo on the "lettuce entertain you". I didn't go back because I waited 35 min for my sandwich. I'm sure if you eat meat, this place is amazing as many people came after us. I won't return.

Heard about this being a San Bernardino staple for decades so we were really excited to try it. The Green Shack is a local neighborhood spot and the inside is clean. The employees and regulars are extremely nice so the service was a 10/10. The menu is GREAT. There's so many options, including sides and desserts. We ordered five sandwiches and all of them were great, especially the Joker and Thief, Don't Have a Cow, and the Green Shack Signature. We will definitely be back to try all of the things on the menu, it's so lovely being able to support a high quality and local spot.

Bad area but you have to get past it for the food and service both very good. Like stepping in a different world. Highly recommended. Amazing

Best sandwiches in the IE!! This place is great. Love how fresh the bread and deli meat is!

First time ordering from this shop, i was surprised. Ordered the signature sandwich, it was great. Fresh tasty food! Was not a fan of the macaroni salad.

I want so badly to give this place five stars because I LOVED the food. Big, filling, fatty sammies packed with flavor. The staff gave great recommendations. Inside a liquor store, kind of an interesting location. There's bare basic seating out back. The lack of star is the wait - both waiting to order and then waiting for food to come out.

*This is based on a doordash order only I ordered a plain Jane Turkey sandwich and mafia meatball. The sandwiches here are tasty ! Bread is soft - sandwich is stuffed with meat - plenty of condiments ! Will definitely be trying others and will have to try their desserts as well ! (Side note for the owners : the current doordash system does not allow people to choose their chips and drink when making it a combo. Our doordasher had to call us to ask).

Staff is friendly and efficient. Great sandwiches. Small shop with a lot of services.

I've been ordering food from here for years but the last couple times have been very disappointing. I decided to give it one last try and ordered the "Lettuce Entertain You" sandwich that was supposed to have lettuce, tomato, red onions, bell pepper and avocado. What I ended up getting was a sandwich loaded with spinach, pepperoncini and two slivers of avocado. I ordered it off of DoorDash and I know that restaurants have to mark up their prices to cover the fees, that's fine- but how can you justify charging $17 for this quality of a sandwich? Extremely disappointed.

The food is really good but the wait time is pretty ridiculous. I placed an order online 30 minutes before I showed up. Still had to wait over 40 minutes for when I showed up.

Amazing tuna melt people have friendly service seating area in back. Boys likes the Italian.

Looking to get attacked by their employee then please come on in and order up. We used to come here often. It's been a while. My husband and I always get the the green shack special. Tonight I called in our order. Footlong Green Shack Special for hubby, 6inch when in Rome for me and the Nashville with fries for our daughter. We were told order will be ready for pickup 15-20 minutes. We got there in 15 minutes. Figured parking, paying etc will take up the rest of the time. First the parking lot was full of people hanging out around a couple cars, then homeless greeting us asking for money on our way in. We get in. Pay, and gentlemen said it should be another few minutes. About 5-7 minutes after waiting I see the one lady working behind the counter, place a chicken patty in the fryer and I said to my husband and she just now putting our chicken in the fryer referring to my daughters sandwich. The lady must've heard she turned around, flipped the bird, and then continued on to whatever she was doing, which was pretty much nothing and just tweaking out and pacing around wall. The Hispanic gentleman was the only one making sandwiches. People who came after us and placed their order in the shop, got their sandwiches and left while this lady was just tacked out, going in and out from the back, and then trying to make her look self look busy I proceeded to the side counter to see what was going on and I hear her talking to her son and daughter who were standing there asking what dad wanted so she was working on preparing their Family order. At this point we've been in there for 15 minutes waiting. Still only that one Hispanic gentleman making the sandwiches for everybody walking in placing new orders. Mewnwhile the lady was just pacing around trying to make herself look busy and then every so often going and talking to her kids I asked have our sandwiches been made what's the progress on our order? Lady said our sandwiches had been made before we got there and that she's just waiting on the chicken to finish frying. Then she's got to make the fries and assemble the patty in the sandwich. Mind you, my husband is already upset at this point and I start getting upset too. I did not order a soggy sandwich at this rate my sandwich had already been sitting there for about 25 minutes made when it should've been toasted and crispy semi warm. My husband made a comment about the weight her son chimed in defending his mother who is working and I said can we just have our food at this point she had finished everything she wouldn't give us our food and she said don't talk to my son that way, and she held her food away from us. Meanwhile, the sun got into my husband's face our threatening him and I just kept asking the lady for food so we can get out of there and we already paid. We've been waiting and I just get our food she wouldn't give it to me. She just kept yelling at me and then saying that's my child and you don't speak to my child. This way, I told her to not bring her children to work and to , make sure if she does to keep them out of customers way. Across the counter, grab the bag of food that was ours that we paid for that she was holding away from us and then grabbed my husband and proceeded to leave while she ran towards the cashier side and was trying to come at me and come towards me. They had to stop her. She was going to attack me. This is the lady behind the counter, wanting to attack me because I was defending my husband from her son, who got in his face. They just lost two longtime customers. My husband was born and raised in the area and he's been going there for as long as he can remember and introduce me to it, and we've had been regulars there up until recently, and we decided to try it again but never again. Please look at the pictures I provided and regards to my sandwich oily the oil was dripping down my arms and so much mayonnaise. I couldn't taste anything but mayo and oil in my mouth. It was disgusting. I had to throw away my sandwich and my daughter threw away her Nashville chicken sandwich Saying that the flavors were all off my husband did not finish his green shack special for the first time in his life. My sandwich was a bit ily soggy nasty mess, Nashville was gross and thrown out, green shack special was not so special. Super mayo on one half.

The hours were not accurate on yelp I got there at 7:30 thinking that it closed at 10 PM, just like it said on Yelp, but they actually told me that they were only serving the cold sandwiches because they close in 30 minutes which I didn't know. Overall sandwich was good but was kind of scared to try it since the other customer complained of finding hair. Also, if you were expecting to come here to try the salads, don't even come because they don't have salads, they said that the salad menu was a year old, but is still on yelp photos? While I was waiting on mine, somebody came in and complained that they found a hair in their food and that they were missing some ingredients that they paid for.

Very good sandwiches !!!! but if you ask for something specific like no onion they usually don't even pay attention to details or directions so pay attention to that. I do love the food and trying their desserts and shakes or cookies are really good too with your meal. The table seating in the back patio is nice for customers as well. Sometimes ladies can be busy and a bit rude and too busy talking but I guess it's worth it if they are always steady busy pretty clean environment some friendly staff ...

Just picked up a Italian sandwich. Heavy bread. No meat. Terrible sandwich. And I have been bragging by this place for 30 years. You're off the list.

Good pastrami sandwich, I got a cheesecake and a beverage. A lot of my coworkers come here.

This place was mmmh different , I'm pro healthy food but no flavor at all?? Now when I see this place, I get scared. I've given it two tries. And honestly, the worst sandwich and worse drink I've ever had from an establishment.

Can not believe this place, the inconsistency of their product makes it difficult to enjoy their sandwiches. It all depends on who makes the sandwiches on what you get. My goodness this last time I ordered 2 sandwiches and both were such bad quality. Monster lobster roll had no lobster but old hard imitation crab meat. The roll was hard like a board , the Cuban was not pressed like a Cuban and there was more pickles than meat. We paid almost 40 dollars it is robbery I tell you. Never ever again will I visit this location. What a shame......
