What a WILD finish to the 2026 Midtown Reuben Throwdown 🤯🥪

After days of incredible competition, amazing sandwiches, and the community showing UP to vote… it all came down to the final stretch—and Logan’s Alley came charging in at the last minute to take the crown 👑

🔥 FINAL RESULTS 🔥
🥇 Logan's Alley– 2026 CHAMPION
🥈 DUKES social house

The energy this year was unreal. From the first bite to the final vote, you all made this the biggest Throwdown yet. Shoutout to every participating spot bringing their A-game and to everyone who got out, ate, drank, and voted 🙌

This is what Midtown is all about—supporting local, friendly competition, and keeping the vibes strong.

Until next year… 👀
