Capriotti's Sandwich Shop Celebrates Birthday With $4.80 Sandwiches In Las Vegas
Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop, a Las Vegas favorite, is having a birthday. And you get the gift!
Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop Is Celebrating Their Birthday
To celebrate their 48th birthday, all 40 Capriotti’s locations in Las Vegas will celebrate, by giving you a small sub for $4.80 cents on Thursday, June 13!
Make sure you join their loyalty program, CAPAddicts by the end of today (Wednesday, June 12), to take advantage of the offer.
Where Did Capriotti’s Come From
Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop began in Wilmington, Delaware, back in 1976. My east coast friends and family are always happy to see Capriotti’s when they visit Las Vegas, because they love their sandwiches. With good reason.
Capriotti’s says on their website, that here were a lot of sandwich shops in and around Wilmington, but not a real unique one. One that used fresh ingredients, and made their sandwiches from scratch.
The Capriotti family started roasting whole turkeys overnight, and baking their own rolls. And they started using quality cheese and produce. The people of Wilmington loved it, and Capriotti’s started opening more stores throughout the small wonder of Delaware.
The Most Famous Sandwich Of All – “The Bobbie”
Th Bobbie is described as “Thanksgiving in a bun.” Slow-roasted turkey, cranberry sauce, handmade stuffing, and mayo. Hot or cold, it’s pretty amazing! And it is probably Capriotti’s most famous sandwich. It’s certainly one of the most popular sandwiches in Las Vegas – 2,478 miles away from Wilmington, Delaware.
The infamous Bobbie is great, but I’m a bit of a sandwich traditionalist. I love the Cole Turkey. Slow-roasted hand pulled turkey, coleslaw, provolone cheese, Russian dressing, and mayo. A great combination of flavors, yet still pretty simple.
If you’re a vegetarian, they have some of the best vegetarian sandwich options around. REAL vegetarian, with quality, plant-based mock meats. Yes, I’ve tasted them, and they are really good, and will make your vegetarian, (and vegan) tastebuds dance.
Happy 48th birthday to Capriotti’s, and thank you for making your way to Las Vegas. Celebrate with them by getting a really great – and cheap – small sandwich. $4.80, for birthday number 48!

Las Vegas Locals Share Their Favorite Dive Bars
There’s nothing better than a dive bar in Las Vegas — especially on National Dive Bar Day!
What is a Dive Bar?
Typically a dive bar is a small, unglamorous, eclectic, old-style drinking establishment with cheap drinks, dim lighting, shabby or dated décor, neon beer signs, local clientele, and parking — generally in the back.
In a city that’s not short of upscale co*cktail joints, and long on thrifty and thirsty patrons, it makes sense that cheap dive bars are plenty in Las Vegas. Many of these bars have a novelty value that helps you overlook some of the smoke and bad lighting in their business plan.
Other bars just simply fit the bill of a locals only dive bar and are just the off-Strip adventure you’re looking for. These are not in any tourist guidebook.
Las Vegas Locals Share Their Favorites:
As we celebrated National Dive Bar day with listeners, some of them shared their favorites.
Gems likes Dino’s Lounge and the Double Down Saloon with its “Shut Up and Drink” attitude, to The Dispensary Lounge with its great burgers, and the LGBTQ Fun Hog Ranch with peanut shells on the floor. There is definitely a dive bar for everyone in Las Vegas.
Helpful hint: You might want to take your clothes off in the garage before you go in the house after going to one of these watering holes because of all the smoke in these good ol’ dives.
Full disclosure: This writer is a huge fan of Dino’s Lounge. There’s parking, affordable drinks (and decent scotch), great karaoke with some of the most amazing singers you’ll ever hear. Trust us, you’re not going to see or hear them on American Idol or The Voice.
So, if you’re looking for cool, totally local, almost neighborhood-like, bars and hangouts in Las Vegas — there are plenty. You’ll definitely meet some characters along the way. If you’re into gambling some of the bars on this list feature video poker to kill some time.
Dino's
It’s been around since 1962. Neighborhood regulars and downtown hipsters fill the place. Sticky floors, pool tables, lots of smoke, and karaoke make this place a blast!
Dino's Lounge

Double Down Saloon
In your face attitude, a loud DJ, and a wide range of live music. Art, stickers and fun signs like, “You puke, you clean.” Try the Ass Juice shot. Legend has it, it is the spillage of previously poured drinks.
Dino's Lounge

Dispensary Lounge
A very ’70s feel with an actual working water wheel. Playboy magazine actually rated it the fourth best dive bar in the country at one time. The half-pound burger remains a huge draw for locals because it’s one damn good burger!

Stage Door
A great 24-hour dive off the Strip next to Battista’s Hole in the Wall. Cheap drinks and great people watching — what else do you need?
Stage Door Casino

Frankie's Tiki Lounge
One of the premier Las Vegas Tiki lounges. Deadly potent drinks, plenty of authentic Tiki props, and a great surf music selection on the jukebox. Also, lots of glowing puffer fish and cigarette smoke.
Frankie's Tiki Room

Champagne's Cafe
Velvet-draped walls, red vinyl booths, framed Marilyn Monroe pictures, and the Rat Pack playing on the jukebox. Dark and smoky, – all charm and no frills. “Bar Rescue” to modernize Champagne’s, but it reclaimed its divey vibe after the BR crew left. Nightly drink specials only make the late night karaoke wors – better!

Fun Hog Ranch
A great dive bar that also happens to be a LGBTQ bar. Fetish wear and leather are encouraged! A rustic, basic design, and an unpretentious atmosphere. Bring cash – still might be cash only.

Hogs & Heifers
The Vegas hitchin’ post of the New York City original, and the inspiration for Coyote Ugly. Popular with genuine and wannabe bikers. Females are encouraged to dance on the bar – and to donate their bras to hang from the ceiling. Bartenders often berate customers with megaphones, and it’s a ton of fun — bra or no bra.
Hogs & Heifers Saloon

Gold Mine Tavern - Henderson, NV
The Gold Mine Tavern started rockin’ and rollin’ in 1965. Their website says: “We’ve been bringing our friends in Hendertucky and Vegas the finest live local bands this city has ever known.” Wings, sliders, booze, and locals, locals, locals!
