The time's I have gone there are many people sitting enjoying their subs and you have to walk through them to get to the back to order. The menu is huge! The main guy working there took one look at me and knew it was my first time. He ran me through the menu and the different options which was very nice. We always get the Godfather and it does not disappoint. It is a little pricey but everything is always fresh and worth it. The staff is always nice and friendly as well. It has turned into a family fave. read less

Both could use a little more meat for the price, but we will go back. read less

All the employees are very pleasant and make sure to greet you when you walk in no matter how busy they are. I eat here about 4-5 times a month. I have tried about a dozen subs and they have all been exceptional. So glad that the new McAllister's that went up right in front of it didn't put them out of business. Please support your local family owned businesses. read less

If nothing else, the giardiniera will keep me coming back. The best I've ever had!

She liked the sub and said the bread was great. I had the cheesy beef with the homemade giardiniera.  It was very good.  The bread was soft and fresh.  The giardiniera was full of fresh vegetables and very spicy.  I'm used to the giardiniera you get in a jar at the grocery store.  Bubs Subs giardiniera put the stuff in the jar to shame.  It was absolutely delicious.  

The staff was friendly and helpful.  They knew we hadn't been there before,  and they were very happy to explain the sandwich sizes.  Our total bill was a little over $21.00.  Not bad for two subs, a bag of chips and two drinks.  If you go,  and you should go, keep your eyes peeled as you get close to the shop.  It's kind of hidden behind a  McCallister's Deli and in front of a Home Depot.

We'll definitely be back.  They sell their giardiniera too.  $8.99 a pint.  Some of that might be coming home with us on our next visit. read less

I ordered one El Nino sandwich, and it was fantastic. The girl taking my order was friendly and helpful, as it had been a while (maybe 2-3 years) since I analyzed their menu. I believe that, at one time or another, I tried every sandwich I'd consider ordering, so just went back for the classic.

The sandwich? First, tasty beef! Second, fresh made bread. Third, 'home made' giardiniera, which is probably one of the best I've had!

So, a good crew serving good food in a clean restaurant. Winner! read less

I really appreciate the passion they put into their subs. We went to McAllisters and it sucked! No personal attention. The service was as good as the screwed up orders at McDonalds so we will NOT go back to McAllisters and we will definitely be frequenting Bubs Subs from now on.

The home made bread, fresh sliced meats and cheeses, you can't go wrong! read less
