PHOENIX — Are you getting hungry? If you’re near a college campus in Arizona, you’re close to one of the best college sandwich shops in the nation.

According to Thrillist, chain sandwich Cheba Hut is among one of the best college sandwich shops.

Cheba Hut may be a chain, but the joint at the University of Arizona has been open the longest of any of its franchises, probably due to the fact that it has a steady stream of highly dedicated patrons who continue to flock there for gigantic chicken subs smothered in ranch dressing and bacon, as well as hemp cream cheese. There’s usually a line out the door, but you can surely find something recreational to do while you wait.

Cheba Hut was the only Arizona shop that made the list and one of a few chains.

We want to hear from you.
