SANFORD, Fla. – Former brick-and-mortar Orlando staple Pom Pom’s Teahouse & Sandwicheria has announced plans to set up shop at a food hall in Sanford.

Pom Pom’s closed its longstanding location in Orlando’s Milk District in 2024, nearly 20 years since it opened there in 2005.
Nestled in a strip mall along N. Bumby Avenue, the spot was known for staying open late and serving specialty sandwiches with eclectic flavor such as “The Billy Chang” (smoked brisket, blue cheese, red onions and strawberry jelly), “Spicy Elvis” (banana, bacon, strawberry jelly and cayenne peanut butter) and “Mama Ling Ling’s Thanksgiving” (turkey, gouda, stuffing, ginger cranberry chutney, mashed potatoes and cream cheese).
There’s no word this soon on what the new location’s menu will offer.
