“First time here visiting, and my brother bought me here to try the food. Everything was good. The meal had a good side portion. Had a little bit of a wait, but that was OK because it seemed to be fresher. everything I ordered was very tasty. The atmosphere was nice. I only gave it a three because I'm not a drinker and they had a bar. so if you're a drinker, you might like it better. I definitely would return here next time. I'm in town.“

“I have been placing large group orders of around 100 sandwiches for high school debate tournaments hosted at Wayne State for several years. I couldn't be more pleased with the excellent customer service and quality of the food we receive every time. I send the owner a fairly complicated spreadsheet, and he bags the sandwiches by school for me to make distribution much easier for me. Each order is marked and 100% accurate. The owner is incredibly friendly and helpful. I place similar orders at different universities several times a year, and this is the ONLY place that is consistent and accurate. It's a true pleasure dealing with this location.“

“Im so glad they move to east warren my childhood home i love Charley's since I was a kid and this location is perfect for me since im a east sider the customer service is wonderful they I had a problem with my sandwiches for the first time today my order got mixed up with somebody else order and they listen and solve my problem right away and I love that about them food is excellent as always and I order from them all the time 10 out of 10 all the way around“

“I recently had a great experience at a Subway location on Woodward, near Wayne State University. As someone who enjoys chicken, I was really impressed with the quality and taste of their chicken sandwiches—they were fresh, flavorful, and made just the way I like. Another highlight for me was their cookies, which were soft, delicious, and the perfect treat to go along with my meal.
What made the visit even better was the friendly and respectful behavior of the employees. They were attentive, quick with service, and made sure my order was exactly right. Overall, I’m very satisfied with both the food and the service, and this Subway has definitely become one of my go-to spots in the area.😋“

“Excellent food, excellent service, we needed to replace cheese and sauce for the traditional style, the cornbeef was excellent and the sandwiches were cooked to perfection, we will always patronize this store for great hospitality, food and service. No need to go to any other place. Period. Thank you“

“Excellent food and you can’t beat the value. You can get a sandwich and fries for under $13 and they don’t shove the tip screen in your face. Food is excellent every time I order from here. The chicken is flavored well and moist; not dry. If you’re here and that lady is selling cake but a slice it’s excellent. A+“

“Totally recommend Iggy's Eggies, the best breakfast in town“

“I came in today on my lunch break I was in a great mood until the sandwich maker got offended because I politely asked her could she wash her hands and put on a new pair of gloves she then asked me if I waa okay I tols her that I i was fine she told me that it didn't seem like it she told me my energy was off I want be going back there for a very long time. when I first started coming there the service and customer service was excellent“

“Subway is a great spot for a quick, satisfying meal! The service is fast, making it perfect for busy days or a quick lunch break. The locations I’ve visited are consistently clean and well-maintained, which adds to the overall positive experience. Plus, the deals available in the app make it easy to grab your favorite subs at great prices. If you’re looking for convenience, fresh ingredients, and savings, Subway delivers every time!“

“Every time I come to this Tubby’s location, and I’ve been to other locations, they get me together!! This location is by far the best in the city. I always order the 2XL steak and cheese with extra Tubby dressing. And they NEVER DISAPPOINT!! Customer service is always good also.“

“This place has the nicest employees however when trying to call and inform them that all of their cookies today 12/19/24 tastes like cleaning detergent I could not get anyone to answer the phone. I just kept getting placed on hold then disconnected. DO NOT BUY THE COOKIES! I had to trash them all.“

“Best food, great service must try ! i pass 3 tubbys just to come here Thank you“

“We’ve all been there: running on fumes, staring down a tight schedule, and just needing a quick bite in the city that doesn't slow you down. I swung by this Subway on Grand River right in the middle of a chaotic afternoon, expecting just the standard, run-of-the-mill sandwich experience. Honestly? I was completely blown away by how well-run this spot is.
First off, as soon as you walk in, you notice how incredibly clean it is. The whole setup looks brand new and spotless. The bright lighting, the immaculate glass on the prep station, and even the chip racks and drink coolers are perfectly stocked and organized. It shares space with a convenience setup, which is honestly a huge plus because I was able to grab my lunch, a cold drink, and some snacks for later all in one swoop.
I also noticed they have the fresh meat slicers right behind the counter now, and you can really taste the difference in quality. The staff working the line deserves a shoutout, too. They were handling a steady flow of customers like absolute pros—working fast to keep the line moving, but they didn’t rush me while I was ordering. They built my sandwich exactly how I asked, toasted it perfectly, and didn't drown it in sauce (which is usually my biggest pet peeve!).
If you are navigating downtown Detroit and need a fast, reliable, and surprisingly fresh meal, this location is a hidden gem. It completely elevated my usual fast-food expectations. Quick, friendly, and spotless. I'll definitely be making this my regular stop when I'm in the area!“

“The crew that worked at this Henry Ford location on: April 14, 2026 around 2 pm was GREAT! I was having a low blood sugar reaction and they helped me immediately when I told them. I requested an oatmeal raisin cookie and cup for a drink until I could order my sandwich. Tanijha gave me the cookie and cup immediately. When it was my turn to order my sandwich Mimi and Malcolm worked very well together to get my sandwich to me expeditiously due to my low blood sugar. All this happened during a very busy time for them; however, they worked together to get me and my blood sugar together! 😊 I want each of them to know that I appreciate them from the bottom of my heart. I tried to call to speak with their manager Angela the next day, to compliment them, but the phone just rang, then cut off. God BLESS and kudos to each of them for a JOB WELL DONE!

“The best restaurant on the west side of Detroit ! Family ran restaurant served with love. Mrs.Teenie”s restaurant is the best !“

“Wow the best food ever I recommend this deli it’s amazing!“

“We came here a few minutes prior to closing time.
The man that serviced us was extremely pleasant, prompt and polite. He was an older gentleman with salt and pepper or possibly white hair. He was so patient with us, even though he was about to close down. He loaded our sandwiches up with the remainder of meat he had left (we got double meat and it was much more generous than any other subway we’ve been to) and he was super fast with the whole process. It’s truly the people that make an establishment 5 stars or 1 star. He did an awesome job and we truly thank him for servicing customers so close to the end of the shift, and even a few minutes after close, with such understanding, patience and respect. You don’t see that very often, especially in a fast food restaurant. The food was great, too. The sandwiches were juicy, fat and toasty. Just how we like them. Cookies on point. We will come back.
Don’t let the “atmosphere” of the place deter you. Sure, it’s not glamorous. But the service made up for it in spades. Thank you kind sir!“

“This tubbys location is the best I've been to.

I started going here in 2021 and over the course of 4 years it's maintained and exceeded all expectations. The owner is amazing, caring, and attentive.

I would recommend this to anyone.“

“Update 5-5-26: I went back and they made my sandwich again no problem. They did say next time I need to have the physical sandwich with me… regardless I’m happy they were able to resolve it. And I updated my review to reflect.

Want my money back 😕 So they got my order completely wrong. I ordered through the app and basically got an entirely different sandwich. It was not toasted, they added coleslaw and the sauce wasn’t even the correct sauce. I don’t know what was going on but I made this order through the app and never had an issue before. Was in a rush so I didn’t check before leaving the store and now I have a sandwich I fundamentally did not order. Do better please.“

“we stopped this afternoon and was truly amazed at how delicious the food there was ! The staff was polite and friendly too. I had the steak & cheese sub with fries, both were delicious and fries were crispy My wife's Chipotle chicken & cheese wrap was overflowing with both chicken and cheese! absolutely delicious! We will definitely be going back . I highly recommend this Cafe to everyone, you will not be disappointed!“

“HOT DAMMMMMMM....THE ONLY SANDWICH ON THE MENU I'LL EVER EAT!!! THE CHICKEN CHIPOTLE WITH AMERICAN CHEESE ON WHEAT ORRR THE ITALIAN HERB & CHEESE BREAD (WITH THE INSIDE DUGGED OUT) WITH THE CHIPOTLE SAUCE ON BEFORE IT GOES IN THE OVEN. WHEN THE SANDWICH COMES OUT OF OVEN, I'LL HAVE IT WITH LETTUCE, TOMATOES, CUCUMBER, ONIONS(NOT AFRAID OF ONIONS ?), PICKLES & GREEN PEPPERS WITH MORE CHIPOTLE SAUCE PLEASEEE! ? THANK YOUUU!?? OH, AND THE BEST SUBWAY IS @ 6 MILE & WYOMING INSIDE THE GAS STATION. ??“

“I loved how clean, neat and tidy the store was. And the crew there was honestly hard at work making sure all of the orders were up the costumers standards. I honestly and truly loved my experience at this Subway location I will be returning.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Subway. Ask for Little Moe.

This is the only Subway I go to in Dearborn/Detroit. During the daytime, Little Moe is there — and he keeps every veggie and meat looking fresh, clean, and actually fresh. But here's the secret: just ask him to make you his own specialty sandwich and let him surprise you. Kid's young but has wisdom beyond his age. Best sandwiches you'll ever have from a Subway. Trust him.“

“Great subs!!! And the strawberry cupcake was 🔥“
