He finds himself at Bat 17 (1709 Benson Ave, Evanston, IL). Bat 17 boasts a grand total of 34 sandwiches on it’s menu. How does one humble reviewer select a single sandwich by which to judge the entire establishment? A flight of sandwiches! That’s right: four sandwiches, 2 sides, and pickles, for an astoundingly reasonable $19.99. The Sybil Sampler includes a corned beef sandwich, a chicken, a turkey, and a pastrami. MMMMM. All of the sandwiches were generously portioned and served on delicious homemade sourdough or light rye. Every sandwich had an excellent balance of wet and dry ingredients. The coleslaw served on the turkey, corned beef, and pastrami is wonderful and stands on it’s own but works splendidly as a complement to the meats. All in all phenomenal sandwiches! However the service left the patron feeling like a burden on the servers. Thankfully there is an easy solution: get takeout.
