Every restaurant within a 50-mile radius of New Orleans claims to have the greatest roast beef sandwich, but Short Stop really does, especially with extra mayo. It’s a multi-napkin affair as gravy runs down your arm, but that’s how you know it’s good. The fried seafood po-boys and other meat sandwiches are also popular at this humble little spot off Airline Highway, but the roast beef is the ultimate. Pair it with a bag of Zapp’s and an ice cold Barq’s for the quintessential New Orleans lunch.
Man I love this place. Their po’boys are perfect – crunch bread, overstuffed, deliciously dressed. Don’t go in nice clothes because you will get messy! The perfect compliment to your sandwich is an icy cold bottled Barq’s – you can pop the cap off with one of the bottle openers strategically placed on the walls of the restaurant. The fries are excellent, or grab a bag of Zapp’s chips. Complete your meal with a steaming serving of sweet, sticky bread pudding. Does a meal really get any better?Pros + Great foodCons – Closes at 8, closed on Tuesdays
