Sam's Super Samwiches traces back to 1970, started by Sammy Graphos, who came from a Greek immigrant family and grew up in Birmingham's Norwood neighborhood alongside his identical twin, Jimmy. The shop has since moved to Homewood, carrying that history with it as a fixture regulars treat as an old reliable.
The menu centers on hot dogs and hot beef sandwiches, a Super Hamburger, and breakfast plates like bacon, egg, and cheese, all made to order. It's built a following among regulars and families who treat it as a neighborhood staple, drawn to a clean, welcoming counter and food that comes out quick even when the place gets busy.
