Capriotti's Sandwich Shop Opens First Connecticut Location
Capriotti's Sandwich Shop, a beloved name recognized for its handcrafted cheesesteaks and turkey subs, is excited to announce its inaugural location in Connecticut. Scheduled to open on April 25, 2025, this new establishment is located at 190 Elm St., Enfield, CT, and is nestled within the newly established Noble Gas station. This launch marks the beginning of a three-unit collaboration between Capriotti's and local entrepreneurs James and Nicole Drazdowsky, who are committed to expanding the brand's reach in New England.
A New Era for Convenience
The introduction of Capriotti's in Enfield is revolutionary as it redefines the convenience store experience. The partnership with Noble Gas is integral to this vision, as it aims to transform their fuel stations into premium fueling centers that offer not only top-notch sandwiches but also amenities such as electric vehicle charging stations and car wash services.
James Drazdowsky, a seasoned franchisee, expressed his enthusiasm: "I was drawn to Capriotti's because of its commitment to quality and its strong corporate support system. We believe this venture aligns perfectly with Noble Gas's mission to enhance the convenience store model, providing customers with high-quality food options in a welcoming environment."
Capriotti's is not just another fast-food establishment; it is known for its dedication to crafting freshly prepared sandwiches that cater to diverse tastes. Some highlights include:
- - The Bobbie®: Often touted as 'The Greatest Sandwich in America,' this delicious creation features oven-roasted turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, and mayo.
- - Capastrami: A hot pastrami sandwich adorned with Swiss cheese, Russian dressing, and homemade coleslaw, a true delight for meat lovers.
- - Cheesesteaks: Served with your choice of premium steak, chicken, or plant-based Impossible meat, topped with melted cheese and peppers.
What to Expect
The new Enfield location will stand out with its unique offerings, including:
- - Capriotti's Rewards App: A convenient platform where guests can earn and redeem points for free food.
- - Easy Ordering Options: Customers can enjoy online ordering and third-party deliveries, making it easier than ever to grab a meal on the go.
- - Catering Services: Perfect for events ranging from corporate gatherings to private parties.
The collaboration between Capriotti's and Noble Gas extends beyond serving sandwiches. Customers will also have access to exclusive offers, including deals for those who utilize the Soapy Noble Carwash during their visit or who download the CAPAddicts Rewards app.
During the grand opening, attendees can look forward to a ribbon-cutting ceremony led by Enfield’s Chamber of Commerce, alongside various promotional giveaways.
After launching in Enfield, the Drazdowskys have plans to further expand their Capriotti's presence with two additional locations to follow in Windsor and Hamden. This strategic growth reflects Capriotti's ambition to saturate Connecticut with their exceptional sandwich offerings.
