Food Truck Friday: Grilled Sandwich Company

• 👩‍🍳 Woman Owned: Owned by Loryn O’Neal, this delightful spot came to life when she decided to turn her love for grilled cheese into a business. But these aren't just any grilled cheese sandwiches – they come with a delicious twist that makes them irresistibly cheesy and crave-worthy!

• 🧀 Feeling Cheesy: Treat yourself to a fancy Lobster Grilled Cheese or enjoy the tasty burger-like El Choppo. For a spicy kick, try the Buffalo Chicken, or stick with the classic Big Cheese. If you love cheese, there isn’t a wrong choice. 

Head to 801 S Chester Street for a tasty grilled sandwich, open Wednesday-Sunday from 11 am-1 pm and 5 pm-7 pm. Also available on DoorDash!
