I've loved this place since my first visit about 16 years ago. Fresh sliced meats, fresh bread, cheerful customization from the chief, Charles. His staff is always top notch, too! If you want a great, quick, fresh lunch, this is the absolute best place in AB. Don't let the tiny parking lot and line out the door dissuade you, the line moves fast and it's well worth walking another 50 feet to get in here!!

Good place to eat a sub- hours of operation is always a hit or miss. More times I’ve visited this place and it was closed during operational posted hours.

Best subs in Carteret County, and they are always so nice and accommodating! Place was packed on Labor Day weekend, and they still took great care of everyone and got us some amazing food! The owner makes awesome beach house decorations out of old surfboards, and he is a local legend!Kid-friendliness: Pizza and hot dogs and other kid options!

Old man working was hateful, wasn't wearing gloves either when handling the food. Out of multiple toppings, and no lids for the drinks

This place is a local fixture in A.B. It's a classic sub-shop, so you'll find the things that you expected to find 20-30 years ago in a sandwich place.Perfect in its simplicity.Perfect bread, balanced meat, and cheese combinations.The atmosphere is nice but you're not going to hang out there with the beach right outside the door.We got the Italian and the Turkey. Both were excellent.

Our favorite place to stop and get lunch while at the beach. Charles even remembered us from last year! It was lovely chatting with him and eating delicious subs.

Went there today for subs for the beach. Ordered 4 different subs and they were all delicious!!! I would suggest getting ISLAND STYLE , will definitely be back

Food was good and tasted great after a morning in the sun, but they didn't give us very much meat on our sandwiches (I think my kids each got one slice on theirs). One worker was friendly and helpful but the other had an attitude and didn't seem to be in the best mood. We'll likely stop again and just hope we catch a different worker or a better mood, and we may ask for another slice or two of meat on our sandwiches.

Subs were amazing!!!!! Hands down the best Italian sub I've had in a long time. The service was great. You could tell they actually enjoyed their jobs. Definitely will be our new normal spot.
