Dagwoods

Notre-Dame-de-Grâce (NDG)

Sandwiches Deli

Review Summary

Dagwoods receives mixed feedback with overall appreciation for the subs and fresh ingredients, and some praise for helpful counter staff, but experiences vary by location and employee. Pre orders are intended to save time, yet delays have been reported and there is sometimes little acknowledgement when the order runs late. Some customers describe encounters where staff overlooked requests such as toasting or toppings, leading to waste and frustration, while others report attentive service from a single staff member who handled the rush. Regular diners in NDG and Westmount find the sandwiches satisfying and the bread particularly good, making Dagwoods a reliable option even if service can feel cold or inconsistent at times.
