Thank you!
I have a story. I’m not quite sure why, but for some reason after college, I had the fortunate opportunity of attempting to be a young manager at a local Old Town Deli, called Bruscatos in 1995. I worked for two wonderful owners, and learned the basics of customer service and a great sandwich. A few years later, I embarked on a fantastic career as a general manager with 2 companies in Northern VA and Washington D.C. for the next two decades.
OK, that’s mildly boring. Who cares about that. Long story short, I returned to where I started in the summer of 2020 purchasing Slaters Market, making sandwiches.
I’d like to make something noted. We believe in the LOST ART OF HOSPITALITY. A welcome, a hello, an employee who enjoys helping you create your sandwich.
A few years later, we had an opportunity and an idea to bring our concept to the heart of Old Town Alexandria. The foundation of Union Sandwich Co. is based on fresh bread, quality ingredients, what we find to be everyday tasty sandwiches, and a welcoming environment.
We think our basic principles are simple, and we look forward to serving you in our little shop.
Thanks for your patronage,
