Regional Roundup: New Sandwich Shop Opens, All-State Football Team and More

Capriotti's Now Open for Business in Foxborough

Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop opened this past Sunday at Patriot Place, just in time for the holidays and the Patriots’ last regular season game.

Capriotti’s will bring its signature sub, the Bobbie®, voted “Greatest Sandwich in America” by thousands of AOL readers, to New England residents. Founded in Wilmington, Del. in 1976, Capriotti’s remains loyal to their promise of providing guests with the highest quality ingredients in all of their delicious, made-to-order sandwiches.

Patriot Place General Manager Brian Earley echoed Morris' excitement for the opening of Capriotti's.

"We could not be happier to have successful national brands like Capriotti’s looking at Patriot Place as their entre into the [New England] market," Earley said. "We have a number of similar launches with tenants new to the market and all have done very well. Also, this particular use, fresh made sandwiches, will be a great addition to our quick serve restaurant lineup."

Capriotti’s is located at 282 Patriot Place.
