A quality product stands alone. Whether it’s a simple side or a signature sandwich, everything comes from our scratch kitchen. We make sauces, dressings, and sides in-house, and utilize fresh produce, natural meats, outstanding gluten-free options, and locally baked bread that’s delivered daily. We’re committed to keeping it real. It’s something you can see, taste, and feel every time you’re here.
In Spring 2014, when Sessions West Coast Deli opened its first location in Newport Beach, its owners had one mission: to serve the best sandwiches to ever hit the lip.
As a neighborhood-casual concept designed to serve its immediate community, Sessions embraces the area’s surf culture as it presents a menu of gourmet, culinary-focused sandwiches in a relaxed environment.
The term “West Coast Deli” perfectly describes the marriage of a high-quality deli menu with a chill vibe that appeals to area locals and tourists, alike.
In Summer 2015, Sessions opened its second Orange County location on the waterfront in Huntington Beach. The opening of this location reinforced Sessions’ dedication and commitment to its community by becoming a local hub for surfers, skaters and area beachgoers looking for great sandwiches.
Unlike most sandwich shops in the region, Sessions proudly boasts a scratch kitchen with housemade sauces, sides, salads, and soups prepared daily. All sandwiches are made to order with fresh, locally grown produce; humanely and naturally raised meats; and locally baked bread delivered daily from local artisan, OC Baking Company.
In addition, the restaurant proudly serves a selection of locally roasted coffee beverages from Kean Coffee.
