So Alex one of the cooks came to the front to check on him and offered him some new ones! All of the employees there today super kind and amazing!!“

“I used to be a die hard subway dan, then I wanted a more homemade fresh tasting sub and I was off to find that shop. Visiting many small sub shops to big chain shops, then I was hooked on Jimmy John's for a while till I heard people brag about Jersey Mike's and saw commercials on social media so decides to stop in at my Local Jersey Mike's, the smell was awesome, people were friendly and place was clean, got the original italin with everything on it and man you can see the freshness and quality of the products, my first bite was truly amazing and brought me back to a time back in the late 80's to this small mom and pop sub shop by my house. I found my go to sub shop and I rate Jersey Mike's better than the sub shop currently in operation.“

“There’s something special about a business that makes every customer feel welcome. As a fellow small business owner at Daisy Jean, I recognize the care and consistency that goes into creating that experience. The team at Jimmy John’s always delivers exceptional customer service, and it’s clear they take pride in what they do. Five stars!“

This is my go-to sandwich location and a very reliable spot! I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“I will always remember my mother bringing me here since I was little. The food and service never disappoints and it is nice seeing the owner behind the counter providing outstanding service to the community. For a business that has lasted as long as it has you should be proud of what you have accomplished! Keep up the great work!“

“The sandwich spot is a great place for delicious soups and sandwiches. I eat there 1-2 times per week and have tried most things on the menu- including their all day breakfast sandwich!“

“I went to Subway today on State Street located by the Wendy’s and was thrilled when I found out how great of a service that they had there thanks to Katie a young mixed African-American female. She made me feel welcome and she also did a great job with the pizza order that we had today fresh everything from lettuce to tomatoes to all the extra veggies that they had there today fresh meats, and everything. I just wanna give you guys a little update on Rock for Food if you guys are looking for a great sandwich please go to the subway on State Street located by Wendy’s. I think they’re great and Katie thank you for everything and I hope you have a blessed day and a great career at Subway. You’re awesome and the food is amazing.“

“Anthony is the reason we go ONLY to this JJ. He is an awesome Manager, friendly, fast multi tasking. Always delighted when he is on duty when we stop in. Got a bigger order yesterday 6 sandwiches. All perfect, fast & Accurate. Hi Anthony from the lady who always sees your car out on the lot. You are fabulous Keep up the great work!“

“When I asked to have my sandwich cut in 4 pieces I expected it to be cut through the top and bottom of the bread bun. Instead he only cut the top and I had to carefully tear the bottom because I did not have a knife. Otherwise the sandwich tasted very good.“

“Stopped in for a breakfast sub. Guy outside the door gave me a friendly “good morning” upon grabbing the door to go in. Ended up just being a customer but that was nice of him. It was only one woman working so a little wait was to be expected. Ordered a breakfast sub and she made it well. Only complaint is the American cheese really dried up in the oven. Probably not her fault and just how the cheese is there. I was treated well and she was friendly. Only downside is it’s connected to a gas station and the parking lot is pretty rough in shape. Place seemed clean and well taken care of inside though.“

“It's been too long since being to a which wich, though the new age version isn't the same. The sandwiches were good, though we miss the bags you'd have to dot the toppings. Did get tomatoes when not asked for, but other than that alright.“

“Surprisingly solid for a Subway. My sandwich actually looked like the ad — which, let’s be real, is a small miracle. The staff was cool, didn’t act like I was asking for the moon when I said “extra pickles,” and actually seemed to care that my order made sense.

The place was clean, bread was fresh, and they didn’t give me that sad handful of lettuce that screams “I hate my job.” Only downside? It took a minute — but hey, if a little extra time means I get a sandwich that doesn’t look like it survived a car crash, I’ll take it.“

“Their food is amazing! Especially the chicken terriyaki!“

“Went to the Subway on Charlesstreet and 20th stood there for 5 minutes no one said hello or offer to take my order 1 person was making sandwiches that others won't just stand in there wiping down a thing no 1 said anything so I walked out I guess they didn't feel like waiting on me ? So I went to the 1 on East State next to Wendy's food was superb got served right away and my $40 that I spent there was well worth it Under new management and take all coupons.“
