Best of Patch: Sandwiches in Dedham

We're unveiling a new series this week to see who makes the best sandwich in town.

 

Just think, it's 11:37 a.m. - or maybe it really is - and you're at work recalling that you forgot to pack a lunch. You rack your brain for how you'll rid yourself of that hunger feeling and power your way through the afternoon.

A fresh, well-prepared sandwich will do the trick, won't it?

But the question is, where to go? 

That's where Best of Patch comes in, a brand new series that highlights the top businesses in Dedham. 

For our inaugural contest, we want to know who slaps together the freshest, tastiest, sandwich (or panini, or burrito)? Is it the unique flavors that get your taste buds going, or is it the mastery of classics like a BLT or turkey and American?

Voting in the poll below is open until 9 a.m. Friday. We will announce the winner at noon Friday.

Because this poll is not scientific, it is not the sole consideration in choosing a winner. The winner will be determined by the Patch editor, based on poll results, positive comments on this article and reviews on Patch Places. Please vote only once per survey, per Patch

Here are some of our favorite places, but if we're leaving one off of the list, please let us know in the comments and we'll add it:

If burgers fall into the sandwich category, then Centre Deli has the best! Not just best in Dedham but my all time favorite burger of everyplace I've ever been! Lots of other grey sandwiches too and all are overstuffed and underpriced! They are a Dedham tradition!
