I am glad to hear there is willingness to be a next time.

Thanks for all the kind words – IU Alumni!
We hope to find a more passionate operator for Indy to continue our Bloomington tradition in the near future. It was a challenge to get an outsider to buy into our model, but we learned a lot and it should be better next time around!

I was just there not long ago and my Dagwood Supreme was as good as ever. A shame this Bloomington legend did not make it in Broadripple. The food speaks for itself so it must have been the management.

My husband & I have frequented the Broad Ripple location since they opened. The managers & other employees had always been so nice and fun. The people
that are in there now are downright nasty. They don’t treat you like they know you. They don’t smile and they are snappish. We will not be returning. Maybe this explains why there were no other patrons during lunch rush the last time we were in there. We started noticing a definite change in the atmosphere when this latest manager arrived. How sad. We’ve lost a favorite eatery.

I will vote for Dagwoods, too! I never really knew how much I loved their sandwiches until I moved away from Bloomington and found myself craving them. And for me, the meat (and cheese, too, by the way) is great, but it’s gotta have Dagwood sauce. That stuff is awesome. I prefer the Dagwood Supreme with green pepper slices added on a deli-style roll. Makes it a little more affordable and is really enough for a lunch, anyway. I just had one and only paid a little over $7 for the sandwich, chips, and a large drink.

Here’s my Dagwoods order:

Roast Beef
lettuce
pickle
sprouts
special sauce
swiss cheese
on wheat

That’s it…and it’s almost always what I crave. It’s so good!

Dagwoods OWNS every other sub shop. It’s actually not even close.

As a Purdue grad, the Broad Ripple location was my first exposure to Dagwood’s. This is probably for the best, as I would’ve graduated several pounds heavier from mass Supreme consumption. Even though everything else on the menu sounds good, I’ve never had a reason to deviate from the usual. I may consider giving the Italian a shot.

I’ll be the first to admit that I just don’t “get” sub shops. I’m not sure what it is, but they’re just not my cup of tea.

That said, I’ve been to Dagwood’s twice, and have enjoyed it both times. I won’t go out of my way to go there, but if I’m in Broad Ripple, I’m happy to stop there for lunch.

I have never nominated any place for the WIBIA Hall of Fame so I am making a nomination for Dagwood’s. This place is everything that is good about food. good service, locally owned, high quality, unique choice and just a good overall environment. Nothing will beat the old Indiana Ave. basement location in Bloomington.

The Dagwood Supreme is by far my favorite but the Italian is also good. On Supreme has about 3-4 times a $5 Foot long and the slices are thick. I make a trip to out of my way anytime I am near Broadripple to pick on of these up.
