11 Best Sandwich Shops in Joplin

“Great sandwiches, speedy prep line and the staff are always welcoming! Clean store. We appreciate that very much!“

“The young man working the register on Saturday December. 7th around 2 had the best customer service! He was very helpful and we appreciated his smiling personality! Also, our sandwiches were great and the cinnamon rolls are the bomb!“

“I do recommend. However, my soup has only been 1/3 full and my sandwich bread has been wrong the last 3 times I've ordered. I LOVE their soup and sandwiches. But, this is disappointing.“

“I love Firehouse subs for so many reasons. My #1 reason is their support of the local fire departments. #2 they don't make a bad sandwich! All of the sandwiches are amazing. My 2 favorites are the pepperoni pizza meatball and the seasonal favorite Chicken Parm Meatball sub. I feel like the chicken parm sub should be a regular menu item, NOT just a seasonal one.“

“It was a trip down memory lane, ordering subs here. Haven't had a Blimpie sub since I was a teenager. They are STILL as delicious as I remember! The staff knew what they were doing and were a pleasure to interact with. The scent of sliced onions and vinegar greeted you when you opened the door! I can't wait to go back!!!“

“Nice quiet eating area and the employee Brittany went out of her way to save me money but in the process also made a bigger sale. Very polite outgoing and helpful. Kudos to the management as you're hiring good quality employees here. Establishment was very clean and all the food looked fresh as I can't say the same for many subways anymore. Kudos to this one.“

“McAlister's always delivers quality food with excellent service. I especially like the choose 2 and always get the McAlester Club 1/2 sandwich and cup of broccoli cheddar soup. It's just enough to be feeling without being too much.“

“This subway was great. Food was fantastic the people were nice. One lady did come up and have a chat with me, sat down at the table. She was pushy about me trying to get her to food from where I work at. I didn't appreciate that. I just wanted to eat my food and leave. But she kept asking and I told her no a few times. Seems like she didn't get the hint.. but she eventually left me alone.

Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggie options!!

Parking: Parking lot was empty.“

“11/6/25 Update: Ladies were incredibly efficient, pleasant, hygienic, and friendly!! Great experience. It was Bella and one other girl working. So kind and swift service.

Usually don’t mind poor experiences because I know everybody is allowed to have a bad day. But when my friends went in there was a lady coming in from a shift change and from the start did not have any patience. She skipped a few toppings so my friends simply re-asked for them and she slammed her knife throwing it asking them what they wanted. Again I feel terrible because if you catch me on a bad day I could totally see myself like this and maybe management is already giving her trouble or had her come in on a day to cover someone else. Just leaving this review so they understand to staff appropriately and ensure that everyone is prepared to start their shift well-rested and patient. At the same time please don’t take it out on customers who are not rude or demanding, at the end of the day it is a job that requires listening to customers for what to put in a sandwich.“

“I’m obsessed with their strawberry lemonade—hands down the best I’ve ever had from a fast food/casual place. The cheesesteaks and Nashville hot wings are also top-notch. The only downside? I’m not a fan of their fries, and if you order wings through the app, you’re forced to get fries with them, which is a bit of a bummer.“

“The service was quick in the drive thru, and the employee was nice. I ordered a sandwich without lettuce, and there was lettuce in the wrapping and some on the sandwich. It looked like some was put on then taken off. Not really what I asked for. The sandwich was good outside of spending time to remove the lettuce.“
