Village Cheese Shanty's Carp River Sandwich

Tastemaker

Oct. 19, 2024

The countdown is on to the final days of operation for Fishtown’s Village Cheese Shanty. The last day for sandwiches is Friday, Oct. 25, and on Saturday, Oct. 26, the shop will have its last hurrah with the annual cheese sale. Need a recommendation for your visit? It’s hard to go wrong with the Carp River sammie ($9.50), served on a classic French baguette (though we recommend asking for the house pretzel bread). This customer favorite features chicken breast, cucumbers, and Leelanau peppercorn fromage blanc alongside classic toppings like lettuce, tomato, and pesto mayo. It’s fresh, it’s crisp, and it’s the perfect last bite of summer before the shanty goes dark for the winter months and returns in April 2025. Pop in at 199 W River St. in Leland—and don’t forget to stock up on cheese! villagecheeseshanty.com
