The restaurant first opened in 1992 and has always been a little different. See, the menu was crafted by multiple top Boston chefs, who were each asked to create a signature sandwich for Parish Café.

However, it was Parish Café owner, Sean Simmons, who came up with the restaurant’s meatloaf club sandwich.
