12 Best Sandwich Shops in Portage

“I don't know how ive never left a review! This location has been providing subs for our crew for years! The owner is super amazing and always helps organize big orders for us and his crew comes through flawlessly every time! Even visiting my personal meals here are flawless. The crew here is friendly and efficient! I love jersey giant!!“

“Jersey Giant on Centre is the only sandwich shop you need to visit around here IMO. The sandwiches are consistently great, and serving sizes are generous. You can turn any sandwich into a salad, and those are way better than they have any right to be (at least when they load it up with veggies how I like).

Local shop with Michigan roots, and I appreciate that they run a great student lunch special for a price that makes me wonder how they stay in business. A sandwich shop for the people!

Quick shoutout to Mark the location manager—his service and charisma took my experience to the next level!“

“I just found this place a couple weeks ago and have started coming here for lunch instead of JJs. The bread is so good and the sandwiches are huge. They are superior in every way to the big chains. And it’s nice to support a local spot. The lunch deal is also a great special!“

“Yesterday we recently visited Firehouse Subs on Westnedge Ave in Kalamazoo to celebrate our son’s birthday, his choice and it turned out to be a nice experience. He had been wanting their subs for a while, so he was especially happy we went.

We dined in and the atmosphere was standard, clean, casual, and comfortable. The food was as expected and consistent with what you’d expect from Firehouse Subs.

What really stood out was the service. The staff was friendly and attentive from the start. When we mentioned it was our son’s birthday, they acknowledged it and were very kind, which meant a lot to him. They also brought our food directly to the table, which was a nice touch.

One small moment that stood out was when I asked an employee the name of the movie playing on the television. She kindly offered to change it, even though I just wanted to know the name to watch later. It was a thoughtful gesture that showed great customer care.

Overall, a simple experience, but meaningful to us and we’d definitely return.“

“I placed an order today and it was inadvertently delivered to my neighbors. But before I found it, the manager was super apologetic and said she would make a new order and have it right out to me. Thank you for being super professional and nice! We love our Jimmy Johns.“

“Amazing food, I’ve gone two times now. Sandwiches, potatoes and soup and of course the best dill pickle. Both times everything was delicious. Way better than Panarea.“

“Okay so Google ask for readings on location, food, service and atmosphere. It is a Subway so I think that basically answers most of the questions. The store was very clean. The single-handedly complete did a great job and built us a very awesome tasting sub. I recommend it!“

“Forgot how amazing this place is! Ordered online and picked up in store. It was hot and ready when they said it would be. Very friendly service while I checked out and the food was delicious! Cheesesteak and small fries for the win, I'm stuffed.“

“Came in before work today and was served by Michael. He was very helpful and had a great attitude! He was the only one keeping the store running. There was a mishap with someone’s order and everyone BUT Michael panicked. If he’s not a manager he should be immediately promoted.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Fresh, Fast, and Real Service
I stopped by the Subway inside the Walmart shopping center, and I’ve got to give credit where it’s due.
There’s one guy in there holding it down, and I respect that. Real humble, respectful, and easy to deal with. That kind of energy goes a long way.
When I ordered my sub, he made it quick and efficient, but still made sure it was done right. Fresh ingredients, clean setup—certified.
What stood out to me—because I take the time to do real reviews and record videos—I noticed more than I normally would. There’s a seating area off to the side and in the back, and when I turned around, I also caught the drinking fountain on the right-hand side that I didn’t notice at first.
That’s what happens when you move with intention—you start seeing more than the average eye.
Big respect to him for the service and consistency. I also dropped a video so people can see the setup for themselves.
If you’re in the area and want something quick, fresh, and made right—this spot is solid.
House of Truth and Fire certified. 🔥“

“Very good experience from Subway. It’s a bummer that you get most of the deals only through the app. We do get coupons every now and then but it would be nice to get coupons. However, I know this is not anything pertaining to this location or experience, but that being said, I miss the days of a five dollar foot long. if you know what I’m saying. I ended up getting the garlic roast beef 12 inch in my wife ended up getting the chicken bacon ranch. Both were actually very fresh. We both had them toasted very good experience.“

“This made my day better! Kim, thank you. You are a treasure. You helped me with my order. And were careful to make it exactly how I wanted. Special request and all. Watching you work, you're a very smart lady. And such a sweetheart on top!! Not just for me, but every customer that followed me. Next time I'm in town, I know where I'm eating. Thank u amazing lady.“
