Bring Lenwich to Your Community
For more than 35 years, Lenwich has served made-to-order sandwiches with the quality, consistency, and neighborhood feel that have made us a New York favorite.
What began as a single sandwich counter on Manhattan’s Upper West Side has grown to 14 company-owned locations across Manhattan, and we’re just getting started. As we build our franchise program for an anticipated 2026 launch, we’re looking for experienced operators and committed partners interested in helping bring Lenwich to new communities.
A New York Original Built to Grow
Lenwich has spent more than three decades refining what makes a great neighborhood sandwich shop work. From made-to-order food and high-volume execution to recognizable favorites that keep guests coming back.
We are currently collecting interest for future franchise opportunities. Submitting the form below does not create any obligation or commitment.
What Makes Lenwich Different
Lenwich combines the heritage of a New York original with the familiarity of a neighborhood sandwich shop. Our menu is built around fresh, made-to-order sandwiches, salads, breakfast and catering, all delivered with the speed, consistency and care today’s guests expect.
As we prepare for franchising, we’re drawing on more than 35 years of company-owned operating experience to build a disciplined, scalable program. The goal is simple: give strong operators the systems and support to bring the Lenwich experience to their own communities without losing what made the brand special in the first place.
Who We’re Looking For
We expect to award franchises selectively. We’re looking for experienced, well-capitalized operators who believe in strong systems, consistent execution and building a brand for the long term.
Ideal partners may include:
- Multi-unit operators and experienced restaurant leaders
- Well-capitalized entrepreneurs
- Hands-on operators committed to operational excellence
- Partners who value established systems and brand standards
- Teams with strong local market knowledge
- Operators interested in long-term, multi-unit growth
Target Markets
Lenwich is evaluating a disciplined expansion strategy centered on experienced operators and compelling trade areas.
Our initial focus includes opportunities within the NYC Tri-State area, with additional markets to be evaluated as the franchise program develops. If you have a specific city, region or trade area in mind, please include it with your inquiry.
