Yesterday, I came here after Banff sushi was too packed and the bar next to it was too un-vegan. Squish Sandwich Seller is located on the strip in a basement (get it; "seller?" It's a pun made in Wendytron™ heaven). They have a picture menu right up…More »

I really appreciate the fact that they will turn any (or most) of their menu items in to a vegan item just for you. No sad, sour pasta or sad, dry veggie burger or gross salad…More »
