🥪 Step Up to the Big Leagues at Colonel Mustard’s Sandwich Emporium

Colonel Mustard’s Sandwich Emporium video

⚾ An Ode to Baseball and Family Bonds

Step up to the plate at 1412 S. 21st Street in Colorado Springs, where Karrie and Mark have created a culinary home run with Colonel Mustard’s Sandwich Emporium. Inspired by countless days at the ballpark and its classic fare, they’ve transformed their love of the staple ballpark condiment mustard into an imaginative eatery.

This delightful shop defies first impressions. Its whimsical name conjures images of a popular board game character, but actually originates from Karrie’s father, a retired military colonel. The name pays homage to her father and the special bond they share.

Inside, warm and welcoming staff like Shelly add a fun touch with the Sandwich Wheel, letting fate decide your menu options when you can't choose between the mouthwatering lineup of sandwiches.

Mustard is the MVP ingredient here, elevated in sandwiches, sauces, marinades, their signature ice cream and more. Karrie and Mark have more than 150 mustards from around the world to either sample or purchase. Gift baskets are also available.

Beyond the menu, Colonel Mustard’s champions community, hosting charity cribbage nights and becoming a hub for events. They welcome all to join their family of regulars, new friends and familiar faces.

So, if you're looking for a place where every sandwich is a home run and every visit feels like a walk-off win, swing by Colonel Mustard’s. It's more than just a sandwich shop—it's a slice of happiness, served up with a generous helping of whimsy and warmth.
