Eastcut

Highly Engaged Employees

To cultivate Sandwich Utopia, where our Team Members thrive and our community finds cheer. The Eastcut idea was birthed in July 2017 by co-founders Brad Bankos and Steve Wuench - originally hailing from New Jersey and The Bronx (respectively), surrounded by delicatessens, mile-high sandwiches, and perfectly baked bread. Life led them both to Durham... , where they succumbed to her splendors - proud to call the Bull City home. The only catch, they missed the sandwiches they grew up onhence, Eastcut. After conception, it took a year to write a menu, find a spot, and open the doors (on July 16, 2018 to be exact). Eastcut resides on Old Chapel Hill Road, tucked among several Durham neighborhoods and five minutes south of Duke. Everything about Eastcut, from location to design, is intentionally casual, comfortable, approachable - a neighborhood shop, which has become a favorite hangout for families and students alike. Over time, Eastcuts mission took shape and now guides everything we do - to cultivate Sandwich Utopia, where our Team Members thrive and our community finds cheer. As a food business, our culinary goal is to provide chef-driven, homemade food (think housemade mozzarella) at a good value. The menu features traditions from up and down the East Coast - an attempt to make both transplants and hometowners feel welcome. Alongside the hand-crafted food is a variety of craft beer, cider, and wine. As a people business, our priority is to take care of our Team Members. Eastcut will work to offer fair pay, create a safe and comfortable work environment, and foster development and growth. Without our Team Members, Eastcut would not exist to transport you to Sandwich Utopia!Read More
