Parking just got a lot harder in a neighborhood strip mall at 14th Avenue and Krameria Street.
Snarf’s Sandwiches, the much-loved 27-year-old local chain, opened its 25th location on Monday at 6245 E. 14th Ave. in Denver’s Montclair neighborhood.
It’s just a few doors down from La Fillette, the popular former Hilltop bakery that moved and reopened as a restaurant in March — and immediately regained its avid following.
Founded in Boulder in 1996, Snarf’s is known for its toasted subs and for finding locations in unusual buildings. In this case, company spokeswoman Helen Wood said, “We love old, unusual buildings. But, it’s very rare for one to become available in a spot that works for us. Fortunately, we’ve learned that we can be just as successful in other types of buildings … even strip malls.”
But this particular strip mall, Mayfair Center, is actually a distinctive mid-century modern shopping complex with a 1950s aesthetic and an orange and green sign that makes it stand out. It is across from a Safeway and is also home to a 7-Eleven, a fitness center and a hair salon.
Wood said Snarf’s will open its next Colorado location this summer in Highlands Ranch, followed by Castle Rock in the fall. The company also has confirmed locations for Arvada, Aurora and Park Meadows — and is “close to signing several more,” she added.
Snarf’s has several stores in Texas and Missouri as well.
