Review from Diann S.

Ive had one sandwich here and i got bacon on it, and they put those bacon bits on it :/
But ive had a strawberry milkshake here as well and we were the ONLY ones in the place and i was the only one ordering so waiting 20 mins for a shake is obnoxious. We asked if they were milking the cow in the back. But boy was that THE BEST milkshake ive ever had. the ingredients were so fresh with real strawberry pieces in it. very much worth it and why this review is 4 stars. -

I do like stopping in, and I think their sandwiches are pretty great! I always get the same thing -- hummus with various toppings that I alter a little each time.
My only two complaints? One: they're seriously overpriced. Two: for the five or six times I've been there and gotten a hummus sandwich, the sandwich had come to be as a total wreck. It always looks like someone placed the bread on a counter, then stepped 20 feet away and tried to throw the hummus onto the bread. I feel like I'm licking the wrapper rather than eating a sandwich. -

When I heard Mello-Yello was served at Which Wich? I was there within hours. I love that soft drink (it's a Coke product) and hadn't seen it in Arizona in over 20 years, but there it was on tap. And I gorged myself on it, each delightfully cold cup of this nectar taking me back to childhood.
And then I got to the sandwiches.
First, I love the ordering process. A simple brown bag that I mark what I want on from the menu. And figuring out what I want is a difficult process, so much to choose from. Shrimp, pastrami, chicken, italian, black bean, seafood, PB and J... I have made an attempt to try a different sandwich each time. I am delighted each time. Then, I get to pick what condiments I want, and if I want onions how do I want them (i.e. carmelized). They never screw up the order,. and if I found I didn't like some of the ingredients together, it's my own fault for picking them. So many ways to make a sandwich!
The chips I believe are cooked at the store. And of course, you can drink all the Mello-Yello or any other soda you want to your heart's content. There is indoor seating with some cool Wildcat memorabilia there and newspapers to read. Or if it's nice outside you can gaze at pretty UA students as you munch your sammy.
Which Wich is great. I only wish it was located elsewhere because I hate parking at the UA and thus I almost never go. -

I'm liking Which Wich?
POSITIVES:
+ easy ordering since you just grab a brown paper bag according to type of meat/veg sandwich you want and check off boxes for additional selections you'd like
+ if you get the big plastic yellow cup, you can refill drinks at ANYTIME without purchase next time(meaning you don't have to order anything next time if you dont want to)
+ lots of choices for sandwich extras, condiment selections, etc
NEGATIVES:
- it is located on University Avenue so the parking is bad at some hours but that's not their fault!
TRIED:
Chicken Pesto Sandwich, toasted -- would order again!
Roast Beef Sandwich with Au Jus - would not order again. wasn't bad, just wasn't memorable.
COOL:
It was cool of the worker to let me know about that free refill drinks policy. She said you can just walk in with the cup and go to full the drink yourself at the fountain. I dig free stuff....especially when I don't have to feel all weird and cheap. -

Do I prefer the Jimmy Johns around the corner? for price, hours, speed and overall taste yes. However, when speed doesn't matter, I want to try something different and I want to make it my way I always got to "Which Wich." They have an almost endless variety of options to create the sandwich you want, the way you want it. My personal favorite is the traditional Philly Cheesesteak with the good ol' Cheezwiz (the real Philly way), but after having several other sandwich varieties as well, I am always satisfied. And if you get chips I HIGHLY recommend their House Chips and I wish they would sell them in bulk. Parking (or driving in the entire lovely town of Tucson for that matter) can be a real Beastwad at times but that's one of the advantages of living on campus and not really their problem.

Staff is friendly and this really is a cool concept functionally; the place is even cute, bright and yellow with lunchbags decorated by previous patrons on the walls. It is really too bad the food wasn't better. I had been here about 1 year ago previously and didn't like it enough to want to come back. I gave it another try on customer appreciation day since you can't go wrong with a $2 sub. I got the turkey sandwich meal with a cookie, while my friends both got breakfast sandwiches.
The turkey sandwich which mediocre, not necessarily bad but not good either. To me, not worth it at full price when there are a plethora of amazing sandwiches to be had in Tucson. The bread was warm and toasty, but the ingredients inside just seemed bland somehow. After eating the sandwich, I was looking forward to the cookie, warm with chocolate still melty (and it was a cold Tucson day). When I got around to my cookie, it was just not good. I can't really describe why it wasn't good, but it is hard to mess up a cookie and it was just not good.
In short: OK, but not at full price. -

I have been here twice and both times had a great experience...
Their wheat toasted bread is fantastic and their veggies fresh and crisp. I got the turkey this last time and it was excellent. I recommend a 7 inch if you are hungry (I THOUGHT THE 10 INCH WAS HUGE AND I WAS STARVING) and I loved their hot pepper mix... yum, spicy! I also liked the simplicity and quickness of the service. I'll definitely be returning! -

The sandwiches here are mediocre at best. It is a cool concept, you fill out a sandwich bag with what you want, you pay, your sandwich comes in your bag, you eat. However, after paying quite a substantial amount for a sandwich, I'm left feeling hungry. For the price, I cannot recommend this place.
I suppose you could try it once to see if they have something for you, but they didn't have anything for me. The milkshakes are wonderful, but again, they cost too much. If you want a milkshake, walk over to the student union, go to the cellar at the student union (underground), they are much cheaper there and probably just as good and bigger.
Oh, did I mention that our club had a percentage night here and brought a substantial crowd? It took us 12 weeks to get our check, we had to haggle the manager, and he finally decided to cut us a whopping check of $12. We had something like 40 people eat here that night. When we asked what percentage we got, he was being a rude prick. We decided not to deal with it and left. -

If you go to their website and sign up for the vibe club they'll send you a coupon for a free regular sub (7 inches) with a drink purchase within 48 hours! This definitely persuaded me to give this place a shot.. Restaurants along University Ave. are generally very pricey so I try to avoid dining here but with the coupon my meal only cost $1.75.. I ordered their chicken sandwich on wheat with pesto, mozzarella, and tomato and it was pretty good! The flavors weren't very defined but I love their warm toasty bread and the chicken.. I thought it would be a chicken breast in between some bread but they use sliced chicken (which I prefer).. All in all I enjoyed my experience and would probably return here to try out something else..

As others have mentioned, the sandwiches are good, the selection of sandwiches is fun, and the place is nice and clean.
My main complaint is the actual quantity of sandwich -- maybe I'm a glutton, but I'm never really satisfied when I leave. I'm still kinda hungry! -

It's good here. It's like choose your own adventure but for a sandwich. You can put whatever your little heart desires on your sandwiches.
The bread is good, the meats and vegetables are fresh. Overall very good. If you want to try something other than subway this is a good choice.
A little pricey but it is certainly different. -

Now this is a Sandwich place!
Here's the deal, you walk in see all these brown paper bags with little check marks on them and red sharpies to mark them with.
What's good is that making your perfect sandwich is rather simple and you never are caught in the middle of a big line debating if today is a spicy mustard or yellow mustard day, since well....you have all the time in the world at your little workstation to choose.
Bottom line,
Great concept and never ending menu makes this place one that you will soon to be a regular of. -

Choose your genre of sandwich, then grab the bag and a red sharpie.
Customize your sandwich and make sure to grab a bag of their chips - they're great!
I'd recommend the Thanksgiving turkey. -

Typical college sandwich type place, hot girls doing homework, chads high fiving each other and some good sandwiches. The ordering was a little funky, but after one time doing it, I can see how it saves time for the guys taking orders.
Turkey was top notch and that's all she wrote. Grab a bag next time you're off to class or being a creep in a college town. -

My sandwich was delicious! And reasonably priced. I had the Cuban. Though it was not "authentic" it was totally yummy. The house salt & pepper chips were also great. They have a nifty system for ordering to make sure your sandwich is exactly the way you like it. I will be enjoying many more meals here.

This place is the Earl of Sandwich. Try an Elviswich to go and eat on the lawn inside the U's main gate.

I'm a traditional Tucson sandwhich eater.....Bison Witches, Sausuge Deli, Time Market, Baggins, Rincon Market.. I've seen this place a few times just walking by on University on my last few trips to the Old Pueblo and finally decided to stop in. I was instantly intrigued by the wall of bag's and markers, and the infinite list of meats, toppings and unique combo's of deli delights to choose from. I settled on the Thank You Turkey...Cranberrys, Stuffing, Mayo, etc. Everything is toasted, just like Quiznos. Needless to say, it was great and I enjoyed my visit....I will definitely stop in next time I'm on University Ave.

Solid offering for the campus crowd. Quite an impressive array of sandwich options. A strange infatuation with alum Jason Terry. Can someone explain? Incredible how much better a toasted sandwich is.

A variety of toasted sandwiches made to order. Located on University Blvd, Which Wich is generally crowded with U of A students, but there are generally plenty of tables, making it unnecessary to grab someone's table when they get up to use the restroom. In addition to sandwiches, Which Wich offers chips, fountain soft drinks, and thick, cold shakes. All in all, it's a great place to grab a sandwich if you have to be in the area.

I love the concept of this place. Grab a red sharpie and a brown bag and create your sandwich. For the indecisive individual, like myself, this process can be a little overwhelming, but now I have sandwich creation down to a science. Some of my favorites are Egg Salad, Club and The Cuban.

Very good sandwiches. Great concept. Good tasting chicken salad, great pork tenderloin. The Elviswich, peanut butter, honey and bananas made my daughter smile. Tasty shakes.

Went there this afternoon to grab a snack before the library and we were pleased. The ordering is kind of non standard and not very personable. You grab your paper bag and mark what you want with a sharpie. You then just bring your paper bag to the cashier and pay. The sandwiches are all the same size (about 6 in) and may not fill a big appetite. Definitely pricey for the size (hence the 3 stars) but it's a cool shop with a pretty good sandwich.

Which Wich has an awesome concept where you can craft your sandwich on a brown paper bag. I agree with the other reviewer that this saves a lot of time in line and also ensures your order is right! I was impressed at the variety and the speed of preparation. I went in expecting regular subs but was pleasantly surprised by the quality of my sandwich. This is a great place to stop for lunch, especially during the summer when there are less students!

Food is OK but there are some other much more original and delicious alternatives around, try Vila Thai right in front or one of the establishments eight next to starbucks...
