A beautiful, impossibly crackly focaccia crust bookends the delicious creations at this blink-and-you’ll-miss-it sandwich pop-up inside Santa Monica’s JuneShine. Despite the limited hours (Wed–Fri noon–5pm), the distinctive housemade bread—plus the prospect of a proper Bread Head storefront along Montana Avenue by summer’s end—translates into a superb Westside lunch destination and soon-to-be top L.A. sandwich shop. Made fresh daily by Jordan Snyder and Alex Williams—formerly of Ludo Lefebvre’s now-closed Trois Mec—each bread slice’s golden, buttery half combines with high-quality meats, luscious cheeses and a mélange of flavorful spreads. Though the pair rotate through six menu items at a time, our go-to evergreen option is the Mozzarella, which pairs the namesake soft cheese with pickled red onions, sliced avocado, alfalfa sprouts and a creamy za’atar mayo.
