Houndstooth Sauce Company

Headed to the East End Market for the Audubon Customer Appreciation weekend and Houndstooth was doing a pop up BBQ tables. There has a smoker set up outside and you could smell the delicious from the parking lot.
We wondered inside first to get a couple of adult beverages and a seating space. I then headed back out to their table. The menu was short and sweet. I opted for a dozen wings with two sides. I got cheese grits and baked beans. Everything was served up quickly and they had a square device so they could accept credit cards.
The wings were perfectly smoked and they included both a white and red bbq sauce for dipping. The grits were cheesy but not in an overpowering way. The beans were phenomenal and a perfect side for a BBQ dish.
Overall: A
Great food, good service!

One of my favorite places to grab lunch. Every vendor at East End is great but Houndstooth has some of the best soups/​sandwiches to go. Can’t go wrong with any of the soups (it’s hard to choose between my favorites: curry split pea, turkey chili, tomato basil bisque), and the black bean burger is one of the best around! Note to vegetarians: I think the black bean burger uses their signature white BBQ sauce, which is good, but also may contain anchovies. Otherwise, great food and service.

Cool spot I def enjoyed my chicken sandwich. Sweet potato fries would’ve complimented my sandwich. For sure opposed to chips or other super lean sides. But other than that. Sandwich was on point

I had the Chicken Avocado which was packed with flavor and didn’t disappoint. Had to wait a good 20 – 30 minutes fro the sandwich, though and their was no one before me… Still, will be eating here again. The quality of the food and the taste are well worth the wait.

I stopped at East End Market yesterday to pick up lunch for my co-​workers and I. They requested specific cuban sandwiches from Houndstooth, so that’s where I went. The décor is very beautiful and unique, might I add.
When I got there, I was kind of confused because I had never eaten at Houndstooth before. My coworkers had sent me with a list of what they wanted — Cubans, a side, and white barbecue sauce (?) The guy at the counter was pretty helpful. He helped me order our three chicken avocado Cuban sandwiches. They did not have the sides my co-​workers wanted, but he suggested a similar one to try and help. I also ordered white barbecue sauce but we never got it. I just left with three sandwiches but that was okay.
The sandwiches were great! The chicken was well done, the avocado was fresh, and the Cuban bread was toasted to perfection. I am definitely returning for this sandwich specifically… and to try the white barbecue sauce because I’m still curious about what the hype was all about.

Houndstooth is a staple of my Saturday afternoon along with their grilled chicken pesto sandwich & orzo salad, which are my favorites. Their fresh, delectable sandwiches, amazing sides, take away items, and well, the entire menu will have you coming back to this fantastic spot at East End Market again & again. The great service & humorous entertainment provided by Crosby & Trevor while you wait is always an added bonus.

I always mean to take a picture but I eat the food too fast. This place is a little gem in east end market, where everything is delicious but Houndstooth is my favorite. They have the absolute best tomato bisque, I was incapacitated due to dental work for a few weeks and having such delicious soup close by was really nice. My fiancé gets their pimento sandwich with bacon and I get their chicken pesto sandwich and they are both awesome. Brisket tacos are also yummy, but the sandwiches are my favorite. Guys working there are very friendly!

Just picked up a chicken avocado panini on cuban bread. The guys working at Houndstooth are very laid back and will keep you entertained as they make your food. One took music requests from me while the other performed slap-​stick comedy ;). But seriously, these guys make a mean sandwich and I’ll definitely be back!

This has stall at East End Market has become a go to place for me to pick up staples for my work week lunches.
I am IN LOVE with their chicken salad! They use shredded chicken with just the right amount of cream and I love that they add lots of shaved Parmesan. Some other finger lickin good items are their pesto spread and the vegan-​curry-​split-​pea-​soup. Try saying that ten times fast, or better yet, go get some fer yourself! Everything is really flavorful and fresh and available in plastic ½ pint, pints or quarts. They also sell deli classics like cream soda and tubs of pickles. The staff here is really friendly and are always offering samples. Besides the a la carte goods you can get sandwiches, soups, chips, sauces and rubs.

Great food, their Turkey chili is very well seasoned. That white barbecue sauce is very good as well. The guys were extremely friendly and recommend great things.

Pickles! Barbecue sauces! Amazing sandwiches! Extremely friendly and helpful owners/​staff. I purchased one of their sauces and will be taking it back to NJ to cook with. I plan on using it in a variety of dishes. They also informed me that they ship all over the country, which is great news. Highly recommended.

Came here today for lunch and was a little startled when the man working didn’t greet me just stood there and said «what’s up.» What happened to the days of «How can I help you?» I proceeded with my order of chicken avocado, one of their hot sandwiches. I waited a good 20 mins while sampling their variety of sauces with the pieces of Cuban bread in the basket near the menu board. When I got my food we had to sit outside since we were a large group and there’s no seating to accommodate us all. I finally take a good look at my sandwich and realize its chicken deli type slices. Pretty disappointed because at that price point I thought I was getting chunky chicken pieces. I would probably come back only for the white BBQ sauce, from what I sampled it was pretty good.

What a delightful lunch spot, located in the fabulous East End Market. I ordered the Chicken Avocado Sandwich, which was perfectly scrumptious. This sandwich was a perfect array of grilled chicken, avocado, roasted roma tomato vinaigrette, Asiago cheese, pressed on Cuban bread. The portion size was so filling that I had left overs for later. The ingredients were super fresh, which makes any sandwich super awesome.
My daughter ordered the Tomato Basil Bisque, a vegetarian, gluten free option. She pretty much devoured the soup. A sandwich meal will cost you anywhere between 10.00 to 12.00, a bowl of soup will cost you 5.00. The staff was funny and friendly and definitely made my day a whole lot brighter. The options on the menu were pretty solid.

Oh yeah the vegan chili is outstanding! Paired with a FL brewed IPA at Local Roots you’ve got a real treat!

I like to run in to East End Market specifically to come to the Houndstooth Sauce Company. I pop in regularly, weekly if possible.
I usually purchase a few large containers of soup and chicken salad. All of thesoups I have purchased are excellent as is the chicken salad with white BBQ sauce. We have tried the vegan and turkey chili, the tomato soup, rosemary lentil and carrot ginger soup. All so delicious and with 4 servings per container, very affordable. It’s pretty much the best soup you’ll ever have for about the price of a can of progresso. We have also eaten lunch here and really enjoyed it. Please consider trying this shop out. I have integrated into my weekly shopping and am enjoying weeknight soup and salad much more than I used to!

Our long awaited visit to the East End Market happened this weekend. What took us so long? After checking out all the shops and tasting many yummy freebies, we settled on Houndstooth. We lingered there as we tasted a variety of sauces, and eyed the variety of soups.
When I saw the short rib taco, I was sold. My husband went with the roast beef, Swiss, with horseradish sauce and rosemary. YUM to both. Portions were large, and we took our leftovers home, and had them as part of dinner. Each of us thought our dish was the best. I can tell you that I recently partook of pricey $ 48 short ribs at a high end place, and the houndstooth short ribs win! hands down.
We scored a seat at the Local Roots bar where we enjoyed some beer. I had a cucumber beer of some sort. It was so very refreshing. We left veery happy and carrying a bag of bread and cookies from Old hearth Bakery. We stopped across the street at P is for Pie, and gathered more desserts!
We had what we call a festive staycation day over at East End. We felt like we were in Seattle or Portland, without having to get on a plane!

I like food. I like folks with a sense of humor. So when I say that I adore the approach of the gents at Houndstooth, it’s for their balance of quality food and sincere personality. When visiting burgeoning markets like East End, I become a little apprehensive, as if I am not hip or pretentious enough to be a patron. What hooked me was the approachability of the staff, including the lead chef/​owner. What sold me was their special of the day: a TBC with BBQ Sauce on a pretzel roll. Anything on a pretzel roll is a coup de grace for me, and my stomach refused to go unheard. My gal pal and I wound up splitting one with a nice chilled cider from Local Roots underneath the picnic tables outside.
The sandwich was a great size for sharing, or if one is a bit hungry and feeling rather indulgent. There was no scrimping on the turkey or bacon, but it wasn’t drowning in cheese or sauce either. With a lunch special, I’d personally like the offer of a side to be included in the cost (as they had plenty of tasty potato chips to choose from. Also, they had plenty of delicious sounding sauces in their cooler case, but without samples available, I’m a little hesitant to commit to something I may not like. This is partially my own fault for not being bold enough to request a sample, as I am fairly certain that if I asked, I would receive.
The staff are personable and friendly. They provide a quality product, and I sincerely look forward to giving them my business in the future.

I took a friend to East End Market for the first time this weekend. While we were there we decided we needed a snack to hold us over until our late dinner reservation. After a trip around the market we decided on the special of the day from Houndstooth — turkey, bacon, pepperjack cheese and white BBQ sauce on a pretzel roll. We got the sandwich hot along with an Original Sin Pear Cider from Local Roots and went outside to enjoy our snack. It was heavenly! We split the sandwich and the cider and it was the perfect amount. The sandwich was delicious and so was the cider!
The sandwich was a little on the pricey side, but I expect that when I’m at East End Market so I wasn’t really surprised. But now that I’ve had one of their sandwiches I will definitely be back!

THE BEST SOUP IN TOWN!!!
I love soup. Not many people can make soup well. They can. I HIGHLY recommend it.
Tomato basil soup– THE BEST. DELICIOUS. GIVE ME MORE.
Turkey ChiIi– Too good, too function. So much yum in one bowl.
Chicken Soup– I don’t know because they were OUT!!! Yay, something to try in the future.
I. WILL. BE. BACK. for soup.

I’ll admit that I ended up buying lunch at Houndstooth when the line at Skyebird was too long for a salad. I don’t know why, but their storefront didn’t initially call to me, but holy smokes was I glad that I ended up there!
I ordered their special of the day: Roasted Vegetable Sandwich which includes Eggplant, Zuchinni, Squash, Red Onion, Mushrooms, Yellow Tomatoes, & Sun-​Dried Tomato Spread pressed on Foccacia Roll. It was delicious!
I also grabbed a large container of their curried split pea soup for dinner/​second lunch snack (don’t judge me!). It was surprising and inventive. I’ve never spiced a split pea soup with curry, but it was subtle and added some complexity to the soup. Mmmmm!
The chef, David, explained that he used to have a restaurant in Atlanta, but had to close when the diner next door went up in flames and took his restaurant with it. I loved how open he was to talking to me while I was waiting on my order (there was someone else working the register).
I left off a star because they could work on the look of their storefront. It sucks to say, but they’re competing with some super stylish merchants at the market and this would really help then stand out.
Otherwise, loved everything!
