Gherkin's Sandwich Shop 171 7th Street, Montara, CA 94037

"We have been eating here during visits to town for the past few years. I have told friends and family about Gherkins! The shop is a typical beach side, no frills place with a few tables/ booths for dine in, which we usually don't do. The person who took our order and cooked it was friendly. I don't usually leave reviews, but I feel the need to let you know the burgers, which used to be amazing, seem to be frozen patties similar to those bought at the grocery store. Fries abundant, buns and toppings are still good, but it was disappointing to pay $20 for gross frozen meat that we could still taste at the end of the day. I'm sorry to say the garlic (fries) isn't good either. It was not very garlicky, which says to me that it came from a jar/can. I guess it's better for garlic breath! We have eaten sandwiches from this location, and they have been amazing and so-so on different occasions. So... there it is, my review :/ and we probably won't be back."

"I stopped in to grab a sandwich to take to the beach for lunch. Wow...so generous in fillings! I got the "Nico" - pastrami, warm sandwich. I couldn't eat it all at lunch, the other half became dinner. I am a pastrami snob, and I have to say their pastrami is very good!"

"The best sandwich i have ever had.The staff are really nice and you could see the ocean! I wish they sold t shirts because i would have totally bought one. This place is amazing."

"Great pit stop for lunch or dinner. Service is very quick - menu is extensive but everything sounds amazing! Can make your own sandwich combo too if you wished. Portions are huge, I was able to save half for the remainder of our drive that day. Ingredients are fresh and the roll was delicious, soft and crispy outside! I would recommend as a stop thru."

"Great sandwich spot, there are nice sitting arrangements and looks like a family run restaurant. So I ordered the turkey sandwich and added bacon to it. The sandwich was made to perfection, everything tasted good. I also ordered a side of hash brown which was very greasy and I felt the oil used to fry the hash browns were old so won’t recommend the hash browns but they have some good sandwiches and the size is huge I had to share a sandwich."
