Scratch Sandwich Company & Brunch - Laredo (TX)

5 /5 Russ Roberts: If youre anywhere near Laredo, do yourself a favor and make your way to Scratch Sandwich Company. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is warm, welcoming, and full of the delicious smell of freshly made bread and sizzling meats. This place doesn’t just serve sandwiches—they serve experiences stacked between slices of heaven. We tried several items off the menu and honestly, each one was a knockout. The ingredients were unbelievably fresh, and you could tell everything was made in-house with care. The bread? Perfectly baked with that slight crunch on the outside and soft, chewy center. The meats were juicy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned—whether youre into brisket, pulled pork, or classic deli cuts, you’ll find something that hits the spot. One standout was their signature sandwich—the flavor combinations were bold but balanced, and the sauces (which I’m convinced are made by wizards) tied everything together flawlessly. Their creative use of toppings adds layers of flavor without overpowering the main ingredients. Oh, and don’t sleep on the sides—the fries were crispy and golden, and the house pickles were tangy with just the right kick. Service was quick, friendly, and genuinely enthusiastic about the food. You can tell the staff takes pride in what they’re serving, and rightfully so. Overall, Scratch Sandwich Company is a gem in Laredo. It’s the kind of place you come back to again and again—and then tell everyone you know about. Whether you’re a sandwich fanatic or just hungry for something amazing, you’ll leave happy (and probably full for the rest of the day).

1 /5 Tony Bennett: My wife and I just had brunch here and we had to laugh at how horrible our experience was. For starters our waiter was horrible. He was a nice person but he couldnt answer a single question we had without looking at his handheld and reading it so it took forever you get our meal ordered. When my wife asked if they could use clamato juice for her bloody Mary he had no clue what that was. Then she asked if it could be made dirty he had to bring the bartender out so she could explain what that meant and he spoke no English so we said nevermind make it normal. Then came the food and it was cold. Not even warm just cold. My Benedict had hardly any holindase sauce on it so I asked for extra and when I got it.... Again it was cold. Im not sure whats happened here because it was a favorite of ours but I dont know if we will return now. The picture was taken after I put the egg on the other biscuit. Otherwise one half was dry with nothing on it.

5 /5 Brian McSteen: The fries on the appetizer are wicked good. It has crispy bacon cheese, fresh potato fries with chicken on top. Highly recommend getting that. I also got a salad with chicken and that was super good too. I tried the chicken chili which was delicious. I’m walking out of here like I need a wheelchair. Absolutely great stuff brought the team they loved it. Thank you so much for the great service and the amazing food.

4 /5 M R: Pancakes were fluffy and tasted delicious. Avocado toast phenomenal. Barbacoa was ok. The server was nice she needs to make frequent check backs though. Bathroom were cute and clean. Tables were clean. Chill atmosphere.
