Live this place! Great subs, nice variety and selection. Love that you fill out your own brown bag, being able to totally customize my sandwich (without having to hope the person who took my order will get it right) just the way I want it.

I've never had a bad experience here. The sandwiches are delicious. They cost a few bucks more than what you'd get at Subway, but taste SO much better. Expect to wait a while when they're busy--not because of the line--but mostly because it takes a bit to make the sandwich and they're in kind of a small space, meaning they can't have many employees working at the same time without getting in each other's way. Still, the sandwiches are worth the wait.

NEVER GO HERE. I don't know how it's possible but they've messed up my order 3 times in 2 days. The first time they messed up my toppings, put it back through, then made it in the wrong size. The second time they gave me all of the wrong toppings. Completely absurd.

Great sandwiches, unique way of ordering that ensures they can't mess up your order. And come on, who doesn't love crushed ice? My one complaint - it's pretty darn slow.

Some really bizarre things happened the night we stopped in for sandwiches. The first being that it was the play-off game for the Super Bowl, and while I'm not a football fan, I am a Denver Bronco fan, so I was interested. The TV is hung so high above the kitchen area that the screen looks like a photograph negative and is so distorted you don't even want to look at it. All they need to do is tip it downward so that you can see it. Totally useless unless you're ten feet tall. It was also exceedingly loud. The other issues were that they gave my sandwich (after a rather long wait) to someone else. She apparently liked it and was eating it, even though it was not at all what she ordered, so I had ANOTHER long wait for them to remake it. I ordered a lettuce wrap reuben sandwich, which turned out to be 90 percent iceberg lettuce (or what we call "polyester lettuce" at our house). We were in a hurry to get back on the road by then, so I ate in the car. It being dark, it was difficult to get to the sandwich itself without accidentally eating the paper as well, which was so tightly wrapped around and around the sandwich that it was difficult to unwrap. I guess they felt they had to keep all of that lettuce together somehow! The meat was not fresh, nor tasty, kind of reminded me of freeze dried dog food. Needless to say, most of it went in the trash. Yuck!

Ordered and paid extra for two sandwiches both with avocado but did not receive avocado on either. Really disappointed, will not come back.

We stopped in Iowa city for lunch as we were driving along I-80. Campus is only 5 minutes off the interstate so we figured we could get a a more interesting meal than the usual interstate fare. Which Wich Sandwiches did not disappoint. The ordering process is fun since you check off exactly what you what right on your sandwich bag before handing it to the cashier. The taste and quality of the bread, meat, and cheese is similar to Potbelly's but there are more condiment options which I appreciated. I enjoyed a "skinny my wich" (less bread, fewer calories) white bread sandwich with Turkey, provolone, caramelized onions, avocado, spinach, bell peppers, dried cranberries, and candied walnuts. It was delish! I was really happy with the selection and freshness of the sandwich toppings and condiments. We also enjoyed an amazing Rice Krispie treat! I would recommend and will return.

This place makes some pretty amazing sandwiches. I come here all the time and my sandwiches never disappoint. The milkshakes are awesome, too - I'm addicted. It'd be perfect if the TV/radio wasn't always blaring so loud and the AC wasn't sent to arctic blast in the summer! Great vegetarian options, too!

There are some things in this world that will tempt a person strongly, their response telling you something deep and intrinsic to their character. For example, finding a wallet on the ground with an ID as well as $500 cash. Or 2-for-1 lap dance time at Woody's. Or pressing that big red button that you know you shouldn't. The list goes on, but I believe as a species we are fairly weak-willed, like an untrained dog balancing a treat on its snout. My greatest lunchtime temptation is to check off every goddamn circle on the Which Wich bag. Having just got back from Triple Punch Tuesday, I count 16 check marks on my bag. Sixteen. Let that sink in a little. There were at least 30 more options that I didn't check. Yikes. If you don't have a strong will, don't go to Which Wich. What will happen is that you will check off so many circles that you will end up with a soggy, hulking mass of food that will be more stew than sandwich. I made this mistake the first time - then I said three Hail Marys, swore to amend my life, and learned to show some restraint when dressing a sandwich. If you know how to say "NO" to yourself, go to Which Wich. If not, go to Jimmy John's and hang out with all of the other folks who chose lettuce, tomato, and mayo as a way of keeping themselves on the straight and righteous path.

If you are looking for a quick and tasty lunch sandwich, this is it. Service is always top notch. If you get something extra, they will try and flag it, but occasionally they've missed it. It's understandable considering the volume of people they serve and how fast they crank out sandwiches. Sandwich toppings are tasty, variety is great! The deli cuts are thin, but tasty also. Restaurant is usually very clean. For the price, it's hard to go wrong. I would mark Which Wich as the best fast sandwich joint in Iowa City.

I'll be honest, I kind of love this place. You pick a paper bag with your food options stamped on it, mark your order with a Sharpie and hand it to the cashier, and after 5-10 minutes you get a toasted sub in the bag. The real appeal is the variety of options -- probably 40-50 basic sandwiches, and at least 30 different toppings and condiments to choose from. Some are quirky, like Spam and meatloaf, but all the basics are covered, too. There's nothing very innovative going on here culinarily, and most of my sandwiches taste about the same because I put the same combination of condiments on them, but I've liked what I've had (mostly shrimp po'boys, though I've also had the Thank You Turkey and one of the breakfast sandwiches). On my list to try are the Elviswich (PB and banana -- but I have to stop putting caramelized onions on everything first!) and the Caprese. One could eat healthily here, though it's definitely not compulsory, and the price is right either way ($4-8), so I'm adding a star for the value. In addition to soda and chips (in-house made and bagged), there are cookies and shakes, which are competent though not exciting. The eat-in space can get really crowded at peak times (though I've never not gotten a seat eventually), so during the spring and summer it's a good thing to grab and take elsewhere downtown.

Pretty good sandwich shop with some creative varations (SPAM anyone?) I ordered the Thank You Turkey which came with cranberry and stuffing. The stuffing was so unnoticable I thought at first they hadn't added any. It's more like a few bread crumbs than anything like Stouffers.... The best part about the meal was the cookie which was free since we went on a Friday! They send the cookie along with the sandwich through the toaster so it comes out warm and slightly crispy. The oatmeal raisin cookie has a wonderful amount of nutmeg that really added demension to the cookie which was the best I've had in a while. I would try another sandwich here to see if other combinations tasted better. I recommend this as a healthier option for a quick dinner or lunch.
