Craving a sandwich, but short on cash? Never fear: we've rounded up five places around San Francisco that are serving up prime lunchtime eats at a discount. Whether you're feeling like classic turkey or an indulgent cheesesteak, here are the places to hit for great 'wiches at 10-30% off the regular price.
Fog Baby Cafe
Outer Richmond residents dig this comfy cafe near Ocean Beach, which not only does a mean breakfast sandwich (on a toasted bagel, English muffin, or croissant), but serves some great lunchtime classics as well. Keep it traditional with a classic reuben, or spice things up with turkey, chipotle, and pepperjack on Dutch crunch. Round things out with a post-lunch latte—and if you've got your dog in tow, they'll even produce a "puppacino" for your pooch.

Cheesesteak on Clay
At this FiDi newcomer, which debuted last summer, "big appetites are a must," Groupon writes. "Their classic cheesesteak brims with heaps of juicy, thinly sliced top sirloin and gooey cheese that works its way into the meat's every nook and cranny, and especially voracious eaters can take things even further with specialty sandwiches." Some of the more audacious options: a pizza cheesesteak with marinara, mozzarella, and provolone, or a "bomb" cheesesteak with bacon, a fried egg, and mayo.

Baladie Gourmet Cafe
At this Mediterranean cafe in Chinatown, "pita-pocket sandwiches blend spinach and other garden accoutrements alongside warm platters of chickpea and eggplant dips," Groupon writes. Whether you prefer your lavash wraps stuffed with meaty gyros and shawarma or vegetarian-friendly falafel, this is a great option for downtown workers seeking something on the healthier side.

Ike's Love & Sandwiches
The sandwich king of San Francisco has locations around the city, but is currently offering a deal to get more customers in the door at his Tenderloin outpost. There are 200 sandwich combinations on the menu, all featuring the signature Dutch crunch bread and "dirty sauce" (a garlic aioli). From there, the choice is yours: go vegan with the faux "breaded chicken" on the Handsome Owl, or opt for the meaty Matt Cain, with roast beef, turkey and salami.

Luques Restaurant & Bar
Tucked inside Union Square's Chancellor Hotel, this laid-back breakfast and lunch spot slips past the notice of many locals. But it's worth seeking out for delicious and hearty sandwiches, including a classic turkey club, chicken pesto panini, and a roasted vegetable wrap with balsamic mushrooms and carrots.
