Roast invites you to their dining room. They are open after-hours from Tuesday to Saturday. You can get there not only by public transit but also by car. The surrounding area is memorable for its restaurants, merchants and coffee shops.
Roast takes the classic American tradition of barbecue and puts it in a sandwich. It’s the ultimate sandwich shop for anyone with a midday meat craving. The porchetta sandwich is their signature dish, which tends to sell out quickly, but the rotisserie chicken is their secret weapon. Stripped-down and simple, Roast lets their meat do the talking.
When it comes to high-quality sandwiches, Roast is the place to go. The prices here are high, but there's a good reason for that: The flavour is exceptional. Hidden away in the Victoria Public Market, there's rarely a long line for Roast. It's impossible to pick just one sandwich that is the best, so you may find yourself returning multiple times. Expect friendly, hipster staff and soft, fresh bread with custom fillings and fall-off-the-bone meats.
In the Victoria Public Market, the line-ups are long but move quickly at Roast. The food stall is a carnivore’s dream. Think sandwiches made of prime rib, chicken arrabbiata meatballs, sausage rolls and pork crackling. Porchetta (stuffed roast pig) is served warm with broccolini, salsa verde and provolone cheese. Salads are made to order, with emphasis on fresh and local. Grab a lunch to go, or find a table in the common eating area.
