Crosby Connection, the longtime sandwich haven operated by an ex-cop from Jersey named Joey Cramarossa, has found a yet another new retail space: the Bleecker Street Theater will now sell its famous $6 subs. Cramarossa famously instituted a Wimpy-esque, pay-you-Tuesday-for-a-sandwich-today policy at Crosby Connection and even helped the homeless; nonetheless Crosby Connection has been a lonely NoHo wanderer in the past year. After an untimely eviction from a 45-square-foot space last year, Crosby Connection moved to Parisi Bakery on Elizabeth Street, where it began selling pizza in addition to its sandwiches. Then, late last year the shop "divorced" from Parisi and became “homeless” itself. Eater reports today that Crosby Connection is now operating M-F out of Bleecker Street Theater, and instead of pizzas, will offer coffee drinks “once owner Joey Cramarossa figures out how to work the machine.” Attention all Peace Corps baristas: head over to 45 Bleecker and give the guy a hand.

Just last week, the Crosby Connection opened in its new location, continuing its tradition of serving delicious, reasonably priced sandwiches. If you were fortunate to get to Crosby early enough last week, owner Joey Cramarossa was giving away samples of a pizza that he planned on selling from his new location. When we previously talked to Cramarossa, he said that there was nothing like this pizza in the area, something that is painfully obvious to us everyday.

On Crosby Street between Bleecker and Houston, there's a literally hole-in-the-wall sandwich shop called The Crosby Connection. Joey Cramarossa, an ex-cop from New Jersey, works out a tiny space to serve up unbelievably fresh, delicious, filling and reasonably priced sandwiches and salads at $5-6 each.
