33 Best Sandwich Shops near Oakdale

“It has been some time since I have stopped in at a Subway. They completely changed their menu which threw me for a loop. I ended up going with "The Champ" which was actually really good. Not exactly what I would have gotten in the past, but it worked. Things are definitely a lot more expensive than they used to be.The service was fast and easy. I was the only one in the store when I went.“

“Preston and Travis were incredibly friendly and accommodating. I'll definitely come back to this location and recommend friends if they're curious. Subway locations ARE NOT all the same & the difference is who is working the front end. Thank you for keeping Subway what it should be.“

“They serve super tasty, fresh sandwiches, salads and so much more! I love their Oriental salad and Zany Mullany sandwich combo. Open for breakfast too, Service is fast and prices are very reasonable. The staff is so fun -- I always come away happy that I stopped in!“

“We catered Jersey Mike's for a company meeting and they knocked it out of the park! The subs were perfect for a working lunch (no utensils required), easy and delicious. Brian was super helpful. 👍 Absolutely recommend!“

“Friendly service! It has been at least 5 years since I was at a Quiznos, and this place lives up to expectations & memories. Prices are in line with other premium sub chains like Smiling Moose or Penn Station. The variety of options is incredible.
I recommend the raspberry lemonade - not too sweet & very refreshing with free refills.

Parking: A half-dozen street 2-hour spots & a public close by

Kid-friendliness: Very good for kids

Wheelchair accessibility: Good ramps & curb cuts, seating is mostly tables“

“Tried this place for the first time. Best sub I’ve had in a long time. Beats the competition hands down on taste and service.“

“We have been going here since it opened and is always pretty good they do tend to mess up the ingredients on the subs alot I did complain once and received free subs from the manager I think but can't redeem on account no one at the store knows about it so we just pay for our food I see they are opening one in stillwater may give that one a try.“

“friendly staff , quick @ lunch Portabello grilled w/ veggies , I enjoyed ! Going back .“

“Overall good experience at Subway, the only downside is the price of my sandwich. Unfortunately I had a coupon for a footling sandwich for 7.99, that had expired a week earlier, I had asked if they would honor it, but said that their system is not setup for that. I bought the sandwich anyways. Unfortunately the sandwich was 13.87!, No chips or drink, just the sandwich! I like Subway but it'll be a while before I go there again, so if you want more customers, maybe honor coupons or more customer friendly prices?“

“Subway was great. The property own sucked. After eating I was on my phone in my vehicle he approached and told me to leave. The phone conversation lasted 7.35 minutes. I even showed him the cup and cookies I still had. He said loitering is not allowed cannot just sit out here. Leave or the cops will be called. The guy was a dick.“

“I have always had good sandwiches @ Sun Ray JJ's... but today's mighta been the best one yet! Kudos to the awesome guys @ JJ's this morning. My Bootlegger #14 sandwich was freaky fast and so good, totally hit the spot! ++ Nice to see people at work and enjoying each other's company. Everyone was so happy! Thank you!“

“The sandwiches were great and me and wife enjoyed the food. will go back :)“

“I ordered a footlong multigrain wheat sandwich with eggs and cheese loaded with veggies on it and it was perfect. Very filling and I appreciate the coupon offers mailed out/ available in the app too. The oatmeal raisin cookies are yummy too! Friendly service here and the store was clean too.

Vegetarian options: Love the possibilities for vegetarian options here. I always specify “more/extra” spinach, tomatoes and cucumbers on my sandwiches!

Kid-friendliness: There are kid menu options including a small milk as an example of a beverage too.“

“Another amazing sub, I love this place so much better than subway or jimmy johns.“

“i travel around the cities quite a bit for work and tend to stop at subways semi frequently… this is the nicest subway i’ve been to, possibly ever… the sandwich was amazing, the produce was visibly fresh and crisp, the service was excellent and even the other customers were nice, lol… 11/10 and i’ll be back!“

“Please GM see this and reward employee. I'm leaving a review because they have an oustanding staff named Kong who works here. I hardly eat out, but I came in one day and he was the only employee and the place was exceptionally clean, and when he made my sandwhich it was with LOVE. So orderly, put together well, and 100% accommodated to what I wanted. He was really easy to talk with and made it a genuinely pleasant interaction. You can tell this staff named KONG is 100% integral and in his words "it has to be the quality i would serve myself and family." I came back the next day and he made me a good sandwhich again. I think it's important to acknowledging nice and hard working. The survey on yhe receipt didn't work for me. So here's what I would have shared instead.“

“I’ve been hooked on Charley’s for about 2-3 years now. I first discovered them 2-3 years back. I had just finished visiting the petting zoo they have at the Maplewood Mall that I’d also highly recommend. I grabbed Charley’s for lunch & I’ve been a faithful returning customer ever since. I had some today & like clockwork it did not disappoint. Only thing I’d tell people to watch for is they rotate new items on & off the menu. So today they have a Mexicali I’ve gotten in the past that wasn’t available today. Still tasty what I did decide on just not what I initially intended on eating.“

“they have good food 3 of my friends and I were there last week..and we are going back soon“

“Your standard JJs level of service: simple, quick, curtious and easy. The place is a bit loud for my tastes during the day as I enjoy a place I can get a bit of work done too, but that's expected and standard of JJs, so it's not a complaint by any stretch of the imagination. Foods always good, breads nice. Will return !“

“The manager of the Oak Park Heights Jimmy John’s, and the drivers working there, were lifesavers for me on my wedding day yesterday! I had to get food FAST to feed my family and friends while they were helping to set up the tables and decorations for the reception, and these guys were willing to be flexible with their delivery zone and bring a platter out to help all of my hungry friends and relatives get through the day. Totally saved me from that last stressful moment before the wedding started. Thanks again for helping make my day perfect!“

“I asked for "ez lettuce" and seriously there were 3 pieces of shredded lettuce on the sandwich. Photo available. It made me laugh but would have liked more than that but not so much that that it's the entire sandwich. Really wish you also offered spinach.“

“I was at subway after daylight savings time and the place was packed with kids before 11. The staff did a great job keeping up with the extra business and keeping a fantastic attitude. It looked like Nate was opening the restaurant alone and did a great job with the unexpected early rush. You have a great staff here!“

“I went there multiple times and I got this GM named Bree in the mornings service twice now. She sure as heck holds her title well deserved because she is darn great on what real customer service and preparing the sandwich very well. I always wish I get her when I go there because she's not only fast and neat, she's very professional! Love it!“

“Excellent customer service, me & my husband will be back! Great sandwhich & soups!!“

“One of the nicest subways I’ve been to. This location was very clean and the staff were amazing. I did a catering order for a birthday party an everyone said it was the most fresh well made subway they have ever had. I would highly recommend this subway location to anyone a will be returning for some more great food!“

“Compared to other Subway locations, this one seems pretty optimal - Employees usually go out of their way to accommodate requests at no concrete benefit to themselves. I have noted deals with very fair prices that aren't available at other stores (presumably due to good management) and customer service seems to be a top priority for almost every employee.

Can't dispute the fact that in general, prices have gone up (that's why I gave four out of five for "food"), but employees are frank; no upselling, no caginess. Only honesty in stating what the best values are, what things they can or cannot do, and recommending the Subway "MVP" loyalty program (which just builds up points that do not expire which result mostly in simple dollar amount discounts in two dollar increments that also don't expire - one of the simplest and most useful programs of its type, in my experience). And since food prices have gone up ALL places, so it's simply not a Subway issue, more a Capitalism Endgame problem.

I don't love that theres an opaque barrier between customers and the prep area where the meat is, but an employee explained that when the chain began slicing their own meats, the far lower amount of preservatives require a lower temperature. Additionally, it keeps flying insects away from what they are most attracted to (meats) when closed, so I can forgive half of the makeline being not observable (especially since the second half with veggies IS observable, so if something had been incorrect there's an immediate chance to see that and request a correction).
I've seen other complaints... fruit flies around the soda, but it has been clear to me that it was an overflow from WalMart's produce section on the days I have noticed - and that the employees put covers over the normally uncovered veggies (at one point lowering the glass barrier between customers and the food completely so that it could cover the vegetable half of the prep area entirely with an airtight yet still clear (glass is like that!) covering, other times with more simple covers over each vulnerable item.)

Further complaints about things like cross contamination between customers due to not switching gloves or about poor customer service strike me as almost humorous - they WOULD be humorous if they weren't clearly intended to maliciously jeopardize employees' jobs. This location has many Halal customers, and I have seen employees change their gloves up to three times during a single order just to maximally prevent cross contamination. Even every knife used to cut foot-long sandwiches in half or quarters is immediately put into a bin with soapy water, even between multiple sandwiches for a single customer. Now, may have employees made a mistake or forgotten once or twice? Almost definitely, as they are human, BUT! -... on a customer's request, I have ALWAYS witnessed employees bending over backwards to fulfill the dietary needs of customers. I have been told by at least two employees that since the work is food prep, they hold themselves to a higher standard than they would be required in simple retail; as it will be eaten (and the effort is no skin off the employees' back), it only makes sense to provide a safe and high standards product.

At least two or three employees are fluent in Spanish, extremely useful for serving customers in the community (particularly at WalMart) , given that a large percentage is not comfortable with English speaking. Even the ones who lack fluency understand enough to be able to use basic yes/no questions to get their customers' food out accurately. Simply the willingness to learn even that small amount demonstrates the staff's dedication to good customer service.

I don't give five out of five to fast food very often, but seeing a skeleton crew operate so well with limited resources, taking care of unique customers so effectively, has convinced me “

“All the staff were wonderful and outstanding, and very eager to help, Jake especially! He was patient even while I was indecisive, was quick and efficient, and was an overall bright spot in my day! The store was clean and organized, and the food was comforting and delicious. 10/10!“

“Went to Subway this evening, ordered 6 footlong subs. Mgr was great! Gave me and hubby great service and even picked out all the bad banana pepper and jalapeno pepper that I didn't even notice it was bad. Made beautiful looking subs! I almost wanted to video it because he had it all lined up perfectly too. One man team at it's greatest! Thank you Mgr. (Sorry didn't ask for ur name. Just knew you were the mgr based on our conversation.)“

“Awesome team, made my daughters grad party fantastic! thank you!!!“
