Dufner’s

Dufner’s humbly makes a fantastic sandwich. Located in an unsexy Plymouth strip mall, it’s the destination for anyone looking for something beyond the average sub. First of all, the breads are fresh. And moving on from the basic deli menu, which includes tasty homemade soups, are serious offerings like the grilled salami hoagie with Swiss cheese and tart pepperoncini. The baked chicken sandwich with crispy bacon is beyond juicy, and the jalapeño burger is enough to provoke giddy jokes about “hot lunch.” If only there were more of these independent sandwich makers; they’d bring the chain shops, with their rubber-bread, mayo-drenched, uninspired creations, to their knees. 3900 Vinewood Ln. N., Plymouth; 763-553-9375
