The bread is fresh and so is the deli. They're not greedy they really stuff your sandwich with whatever you want. And the large is way bigger than you can imagine. I ordered a large since I usually get a large at subway and it was way bigger. I took the other half home. Definitely recommend! read less

Personally, I prefer the Godfather, Firebird, and Three Amigos.  I have yet to be disappointed. read less

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 was debating between ordering beef or turkey and am SO happy I tried the beef. #1 El Niño is my new favorite! I ordered a mini, dipped, with easy hot sauce and easy jardiniere but next time I will order a larger sandwich and tell them to load it up. 3 hours later and my mouth is still watering from how tasty my sandwich was! read less

I haven't had a sub this good since I lived on the south side of Chicago.  Everything is very fresh and their home made marinara and giardinera are heaven..

I highly recommend their #10 as it's the run-of-the-mill Italian style cold sub that does the trick.

They make their own giardinera and it's phenomenal!  Not too spicy and just the right amount of heat to flavor combination.

Good chip selection with kettle cooked chips!

I'd recommend this place to all those in the Algonquin area. read less

I would come back

I had to add to my review along with adding he 5th Star.

The samwich was the best I've had of an Italian. The meats were a great combination but the ingredients were exceptionally fresh. The tomato which is always subpar on sub sandwiches was fresh and juicy. The bread had a perfect blend of softness but didn't fall apart from the juices inside of the tomato, garidinera, and vinegar and oil mixture.

In fact my bag of chips were hardly touched!

A definite stop when in the area 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

They're very nice and genuine! Now, for the real reason you were going there. Their subs are just so yum. And now that they deliver... Just take my money! Their homemade giardiniera is fantastic and I really love their chipotle mayo- the Firebird is my fave! They use fresh, delicious ingredients, and the bread is amazing. Delish!!! read less

The flavors were on point and everyone loved their sandwiches. Prices are also very reasonable with multiple size offerings. Will be back! read less
