// IRVINE · HUGHES DRIVE · OPEN MON-FRI
Lunch that doesn't
feel like a meeting.
Sandwich shop in the Alton corporate park. Hand-built sandwiches, salads, breakfast plates, and a counter line that moves. We open at 7:30 and we're closed by two.

Built for the lunch rush. Not a meeting room.
Alton has been the lunch counter for the Hughes Drive corporate park since 2014. Sandwiches, salads, breakfast plates, and the kind of coffee that does its job before 9:30.
We bake the bread on-site every morning, the salads are pre-built but built fresh that day, and the sandwiches are made to order with a fifteen-minute average from line to lid.
Closed Saturday and Sunday on purpose. The office crowd has plans on the weekend; we do too.

From the line at noon.

"The Hughes sandwich keeps me from buying sad office salads. The line moves and the staff remembers my order by my third visit. The cookies are unreasonably good."

"Box-lunch orders for our team have been on point for two years. They get the dietary notes right, the delivery is on time, and the receipt comes with the right invoice every time."

"Walked in cold during a meeting break. Out the door in twelve minutes with the best Italian sub I've had this side of Brand Boulevard. I'll be back tomorrow."
