ACK Gioia

Love that we discovered this shop right off the rail trail. The staff was kind and engaged our toddler, the coffee was great, and the breakfast sandwiches were absolutely delicious. The fresh bread and ingredients used make a difference- absolutely yummy! We can’t wait to go back on another ride!

Great sandwiches on fresh focaccia bread. Their cheese is incredible. I really enjoyed the renegade, vegetarian sandwich. Though I wish there was more cheese on it. The pistachio conoli had a real ricotta filling and wasn't overly sweet. It was just right. We loved the sfogliatelli.

ACK is hands-down my favorite spot for sandwiches on the Cape — and don’t even get me started on their cheese and fresh bread! You can truly feel the hard work and dedication in everything they do. The food is consistently amazing, and the atmosphere is just as inviting. I’ve been a repeat customer for a reason — everything I’ve tried has been top-notch. The wait time is worth every penny. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality and care in every bite!

Incredible. The food here is perfection. Ciabatta is crispy on the outside yet light and chewy on the inside. All the cheeses are divine. ACK Gioia reminds me of eating in Italy in the countryside (best compliment!). It’s well worth the wait (order ahead if you can, there will be at least a 30 minute wait for the food to be prepared after ordering). Can’t recommend enough. What a special place. Thank you for coming to the cape!

Wow!! We've been missing out by not stopping at ACK Gioia sooner! Got there at 8:25 am and a line was already started for 8:30 am opening! Quick ordering and about a 5 minute wait for food to come out. Very friendly and oh the smells! Yummy cheese and bread- the lunch sandwiches looked so enticing! Breakfast sandwiches were great with a slice of salty mozzarella, egg, and bacon. Will definitely be back to try more off the menu!

I finally was able to stop into ACK GOIA and let me tell you how happy I am I did. The sandwich menu is chock full of alluring choices and the 3 Graces sandwich caught my eye. This sandwich had layers of prosciutto, mortadella and salami on a bed of greens, ACK Goia mozzarella nestled between savory focaccia bread (you can choose between house made focaccia or ciabatta) This flavorsome creation certainly lives up to its namesake , those 3 Graces of mythological fame. With its combination of savory, salty and sweet this has everything you could possibly want from an Italian sandwich . This sandwich and cheese shop packs a punch , Ack Goia is famous for a reason and I cant wait to return and try everything else they make.

ACK Gioia impressed me start to finish. I sampled a lot of the menu and everything was excellent. The ingredients are top tier and as fresh as it gets. The mortadella sandwich with the fig spread as well as the mortadella with the pistachio pesto are both must tries. I’d drive from Maine for that sandwich. The chocolate chip cookies, cannoli and tiramisu were all excellent as well. Food as good as this is not common on cape cod. ACK Gioia was absolutely outstanding. Kudos to the entire staff.

Summer on the Cape means longer lines everywhere, and ACK Gioia is no exception — but don’t let that stop you. Alex’s sandwiches, with their fresh-baked bread and hand-crafted cheese, are well worth the wait. Each bite is a reminder of what a truly good sandwich can be. It’s a week later, and I’m still thinking about the Tangy Tomato sandwich from there — it was that amazing. This small, woman-owned business deserves your support, and while you’re there, remember to be kind to those in the service industry who are working hard to bring you something special. Trust me: ACK Gioia is a Cape Cod must.
