Reviews for Earl of Sandwich in Newark, NJ

This is the only sit down eating option for this set of gates right now. Menu was a standard (but small) selection of... sandwiches, salads and wraps. However, salads and wraps were not available so choice was limited to the sandwiches and calorieintensive appetizers. Ended up ordering a Reuben sandwich was respectable enough. Boston lager was advertised as $10.50 on themenu but charged at $12.50 which seemed very misleading. When I challenged the charges I was told that the menu needed to beupdated. Not sure that it is legal to advertise one price and charge another. Menu clearly stated $10.50 or a pint or tall sonot much ambiguity there. Service slow and well below average, surprising given that all customers have planes to catch. Read more

Upon arrival noticed coworker arguing.... two women. It took 6 minutes to get service. There were only 2 tables occupied upon my... entrance.... not busy at all. Waitresses mingling at counter and other browsing cell. Whe I sat, again waited 6 minutes, I hadto get up and request ( the waitress that was on cell) service. She gave me a menu, kept on browsing cell, and yell across to awaiter to give me attention. Upon leaving, as my boarding was getting close, I approached the counter with my ck. Lady oncounter did not take my card for processing nor mentioned why.... never acknowledge my presence and kept browsing cell. FORMANAGENET... If video service on the restaurant is active please review and verify. Ck time on Oct 5th; approx 7:20 to 7:45am. Crew requires proper training. I don't belive I would be able to visit this restaurant again. Read more

A nice man took my order and I sat down and the place was empty, as I was eating my sandwich, another employee there then... approached me and the employees name was ?Abracely? in the A terminal gates 20-28 came up to me and told me I couldn?t sit thereand eat because I had the take out bag, I then asked if I could buy a drink so I can stay sitting and she told me no after Ialready had bought a sandwich and chips. This is horrible customer service on ?Abracely?s? behalf, very unfortunate as I likedthis place but will never eat it again. She should be fired. Read more

It's a good place to eat a hot sandwich before the flight. They give chips with it. Only one option for vegetarians. No option... for vegans. Also when I went there were no other things available. It was mid-day Saturday. Not much space for seating. Read more

It was mobbed, not their fault, but the wait was brutal and people were grumpy.

This was easily the worst food experience I've ever had in an airport. I felt like I was in a 3rd world airport from an Indiana... Jones movie. I ordered a Bacon Egg & Cheese sandwich and was brought a culinary abortion that I could barely eat. How do youmess that? Also, the waitress acted like she forgave you for the transgression of being there, and acted in such a dismissivemanner that made some of the patrons look at each other as if saying "Are you seeing this s***t?!?" Also, there was a terriblesewage smell that would come and go. This place should be shut down ASAP. Read more

Absolutely atrocious wait times. Ordered a sandwich which took 20 min. Went back to order another one for my wife which took 30... min. And only at that point when they skipped my order number did they realize they missed it and made it then. Kitchen staffhad zero urgency. Not asking for blazing sandwich making but wow. No apology either. Read more

Simply the worst airport food I've eaten in years. For the first time in as long as I can remember, the coffee was literally... undrinkable, and the omlette only related to the real deal in that they both contain carbon. Read more
