It’s true that the sandwich is the most versatile food in the entire world.

A sandwich can be made with any type of meat, veggie, or really any type of food between two pieces of bread. It was popularized in early England by — get this — literally a guy named the Earl of Sandwich.

If you’d like a great sandwich near the South City Campus, look no further then Grinders 13. A quaint little sandwich shop right across campus, Grinders 13 has been around for over 40 years.

As you enter the shop, it is adorned with whiteboards with quirky quips about the Utah Jazz. The walls are covered with graffitied sandwich paraphernalia. It has a really neat ambiance.

Parking in front of Grinders 13 is limited; the best way for students to get there is to walk. If you walk there and back and get a to-go order, it should take about ten minutes total — a super quick option for a tasty lunch.

There are many options at Grinders 13, from cheesesteaks to Italian subs. The median price for a sandwich is about $9. However, a six-inch sandwich costs about $6.50; not to mention they give a student discount.

Grinders 13 is a great sandwich shop, full of heart and good sandwiches.

Rating: 8/10
