Welcome to Sequoia Sandwhich Company

At The Sequoia Sandwich Company we are committed to using only premium quality ingredients and hand-crafting each sandwich. Our promise is to serve only the best food available. That means using premium deli meats and cheeses exclusively for our sandwiches. Our delicatessen products have been made the old fashioned way, with no artificial colors, flavors or fillers.

From our homemade cookies made with real butter, and our classic New York style Cheesecake and all natural Carrot Cake, to our side salads and soups, which are made fresh daily, each and every item on our menu has been selected with care and made with your satisfaction in mind.

Our delis are run for the enjoyment and pleasure of our customers, if you have a special request, just ask! We will do everything we can to satisfy you. At Sequoia Sandwich we stand behind everything we do - if something isn't right, please let us know.

The Sequoia Sandwich Company was started by Gary Blackburn and Jeff Simpson, two friends who grew tired of their corporate jobs and decided to trade-in their white shirts and ties to pursue their own business venture doing something more rewarding and fun.

After a year of planning and more than 6 months of renovation, the first store in Downtown Bakersfield opened in September 1999. With the project way over budget, and having given up their banking jobs, the thought of failure was not an option. Fortunately, with the support of family, friends, and the community, the store was an immediate success. Word-of-mouth became the company's best advertisement. In 2002 the company opened it's second Bakersfield store in the Northwest Promenade on Rosedale Highway next to Target. Followed by a third store in 2005 in Southwest Bakersfield located in the University Centre complex on Ming Avenue near CSUB. In 2008 the company opened it's 4th store in Clovis. In 2018 the company plans to open it's 5th location in San Luis Obispo. Sequoia now serves more than 2,500 customers a day and employs more than 100 people.
