Nominated for: BEST Sandwich
State street moneymakers and miserable paralegals alike flock to Al's state street café express-a surprise oasis of good eating amid the brutal downtown rush. Clad in bright-yellow shirts, the fast talkers behind the counter do their best to keep the line moving, so you'd better know what you want by the time you get to the front of the hot or cold sub line.
The absolute BEST chicken salad sandwiches... not just in Boston, but the whole state.

The State Street special -- prosciutto, basil, mozzarella -- is great, but so is the crazed atmosphere.

You can get 2 meals out of a small, for under $7 too. Make sure you know exactly what you want, place gets slammed at lunch. My personal favorite is the BBQ chicken with pickles and provolone. Don't knock it till you try it.

Fresh bread! If you want something fast, get a small meatball sub as they are really popular and they tend to pre-make a bunch of them for lunch. DELICIOUS. Also the best chicken salad around.

Nothing compares to Al's. I'll go an hour out of my way to get a sandwich from Al's, and its always worth it.
