“This place made me feel like if I was in Italy once again! The food was great and the staff was welcoming and attentive. We shared a sandwich between two people since the portions were big. And we finished it off with 2 cannoli. The atmosphere was definitely pleasant, very relaxed. You can play some board games while you wait for the food. Will come back to try the other sandwiches.“

“Came in for a 6-foot long sandwich using one of my coupons and ended up buying a footlong instead sandwich because of Karan. I had such great service and he was super friendly with a positive attitude. By far one of the best experience and sandwiches I’ve had in a while at subway!“

“Chicken Bacon Avocado Sandwich – Simply the Best!

The Chicken Bacon Avocado sandwich is hands down the best item on the menu. I love the fresh, flavorful bread they use, and the service is quick and convenient. I always pair it with a small side of pasta salad, which makes the meal even better. Highly recommended!“

“Very good food sometimes go by there. When I'm in Ottawa, as there are not very many Mr subs left. I like the bread definitely better than Subway. Not quite as good as firehouse, but I'm definitely a good option. This location seemed to be clean fresh. Good, fast service and decent price. All right, we'll definitely check it out again.Then, you should too I doubt you'll be disappointed. There is a variety of menu items, including a cookie with marshmallow. In between it which looks decent, I may have to try that. And also, they have a steak in cheese queso sub, which also looks good. So check them out, tell them I sent you.“

“I receive an email from Pita Pit for my birthday. I was getting 500 points. It s my favorite place. Best pita.“

“Stopped by this Subway and had a mixed experience. A lot of menu items were out of stock, which made it frustrating to figure out what to order. Not the staff’s fault — they were friendly and helpful — but it still made for a less-than-ideal visit.

I ended up trying the new Peri-Peri Chicken sub. Not really my thing, but I can see how others might enjoy it. Prices were as expected, and there weren’t any issues at checkout. Just wish the location had been better stocked.“

“Myself and the family have ordered subway here each day in June. 5 days and counting. Brad has been doing a great job, and the subs have been fantastic. Very welcoming and helpful. we've had some issues with the subway app, but otherwise the staff and food have been really strong. will continue to visit Thank you June Subway Challenge“

“One of the busiest outlets inside Place Minto Place building. They have breakfast and lunch options with a variety of menu items. They have a group of amazing crew, always ready to help, and fast during lunch (Lunch is busy). It was clean at the front and we could dine in the common dining area. Overall a nice experience!! Thank you.“

“Service was very fast and friendly. Sandwich is absolutely massive, definitely a full meal. The bread was the star for me as it's probably the most important part of a sandwich in my opinion. Light and airy with just enough chew and a touch of crisp. Really nice!

Ingredients are fresh and the porchetta was well-made and seasoned just right. I found something a touch salty (maybe the eggplant) but overall it was delicious. Highly recommend.“

“The service is consistently quick, and they never mess up an order. It’s refreshing to see such professionalism. Keep it up!
My favorite Subway in town! They always have fresh bread and crisp veggies. The staff here truly make the difference.
I visited during lunch hours and was impressed with how efficiently they handled the rush. The sandwich was fresh and delicious. Would surely recommend to anyone nearby.

Great spot for a quick and healthy bite. The staff is polite and prepares everything neatly. Definitely one of the better Subway locations in Ottawa!
Always love stopping by this Subway in Ottawa! The veggies are super fresh, and the staff makes the subs exactly how I like them. Clean place and quick service every time.“

“A small sandwich shop that I visited in Canada Day. The sandwiches are cheapish and fast. They have ice cream and drinks as well.

There's nothing too special about this place, but if you are hungry and see this place, grab a bite and you will enjoy it.“

“I came in and the man that served me was named Jamal he is super funny. He probably made the best sandwich I’ve ever had. He went through great lengths to make me happy. I recommend this restaurant to anybody in the area 100% hands-down best sub I’ve been to.“

“Starting from the top: the customer service here is exceptional. The staff don’t just make small talk; they actually care — asking about your day and chatting in a genuine way that makes you feel valued as a customer.

They’re also very generous with their portions. I’ve worked at Subway before, so I know exactly how much cheese and how many veggies you’re technically supposed to put on a sandwich — and how stingy some locations can be. But not here. This team adds the perfect amount of everything — exactly how much you ask for, which is exactly what Subway should be about. Sauces? Done right — two proper lines, no shortcuts, no stinginess, no negativity whatsoever.

And can we talk about the freshness? I don’t know if I caught them right after a restock or if they just keep their ingredients that fresh all the time, but those veggies were farm-fresh. You could literally see the moisture glistening on the onions and peppers — perfection.“

“I've been a regular at this Subway for a while, and I have to say — the recent changes under the new management have made a huge difference! 🙌

The service is now super friendly, the staff is well-trained and professional, and everything feels cleaner and more organized. Most importantly, the food is fresh, well-prepared, and served with a smile.“

“Chintan was an absolute exceptional server. His patience and understanding made my sub, the absolute best and most tasty sub I have ever had. Starting with the meat right to the last ingredient, everything was layered with care to ensure a perfect bite every time. I could not recommend a better subway. Thank you sir!“

“I had a wonderful experience at this subway. There is an employee, she was so good with the customer service. I think her name was Pinal, and she was just amazing. It was her closing time and I visited when she closed her counter and still she patiently waited for me to order and made my order with a big smile. I love this subway, I'm coming back.“

“I had a very unpleasant experience at this Subway location because of two customers who were extremely rude to the employee working alone.
They kept changing their order, confused the employee, and then blamed her for making a wrong order. One of them complained that the employee was coughing, even though it was clearly because the previous order had extra salt and black pepper, and the strong pepper smell caused it.
At billing, they first said they would pay together, but after the order was already entered, they suddenly asked to pay separately. There was a long line, and the employee politely requested them to decide quickly since she was working alone. Instead, they started speaking badly, abusing her, and even threatening her by saying they would leave a bad review.
Despite all this, the employee stayed calm, polite, and professional. It honestly felt like those customers were only there to create trouble.“

“I had an amazing experience at this Subway location! The customer service was outstanding and the communication with the guy working there was excellent. The place was neat and clean, and my order was prepared exactly how I wanted it, no mistakes at all. The sandwich was properly grilled, toasted, and tasted so good. What really stood out was how welcoming the staff member was, greeting us with a smile. At other locations, I often feel rushed and barely get a word from the staff, but here it was completely different. Definitely one of the best Subway experiences I’ve had!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I absolutely love coming to the Subway at 770 Brookfield Rd! The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with friendly smiles and great energy from the staff. They always take the time to make your sub exactly how you like it — fresh veggies, perfectly baked bread, and generous portions of everything. You can tell they genuinely care about making sure every customer leaves happy.

The restaurant is always super clean and organized, even during busy hours. The service is quick but never rushed — they get your order right every single time. I really appreciate how polite and helpful the team is, whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout.

It’s become my go-to Subway because the food quality and service are consistently excellent. It’s hard to find a place where everything just feels right — great people, great food, and a really positive vibe. If you’re in the area and craving a fresh, tasty sub, this is 100% the place to go! 🥪💚“

“I would like to say how much I enjoyed the service since September. They're friendly staff who are always pleasant to talk to on a daily basis. Service is fast and efficient even when there are lines. I will always come to this subway as the atmosphere is uplifting. Thanks for the best customer service ever.“

“One of the few good Subways left in the city. Good location, quick service, an owner who actually cares about quality and no skimping on meat and vegetables.

Vegetarian options: Veggie subs, fresh mozzarella series subs.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free bread, Employees will change gloves upon request for Kosher / Halal / Allergies etc.

Wheelchair accessibility: Building has elevators and there is a ramp close by to Subway and multiple accessible washrooms as well.“

“Wouldn’t normally write a review for a sandwich , but after usual ‘meh’ sandwiches at other locations today’s experience warranted a positive review of our experience. We visited at lunch today July 10th. The line moved efficiently but not rushed and hurried. I appreciated the efficiency but also the extra few seconds of attention to sandwiches. It made a difference. When we sat down to enjoy our sandwiches, I was taken aback at how perfect it was. Ot was fluffy, toasted, the vegetables had a chilled crunch combined with the toasted melted shredded cheese and meat. I told my daughter it was the most enjoyable subway sandwich I’ve ever had. So many subways have reviews in the 3’s, and we’ve skipped subway based on the locations reviews. This one delivered. Keep up the great work and continue serving the sandwiches with care it shows!“

“I had a great experience at this Subway location, thanks to. KRISHNA She was very kind, professional, and attentive. She greeted me warmly, prepared my order exactly as requested, and made the whole process pleasant. Excellent customer service, I truly appreciate her effort!“

“I had a great experience at subway. I usually don’t like food on the first try, but this Subway location completely changed that for me. I only eat Subway from here because everything is always fresh, clean, and made just the way I like it. The staff are friendly and the place is spotless. Highly recommend this location—it’s the best!“

“I just went in 1115am December 31st
Both staff were incredible
Ingredients fresh
Order done perfectly
Atmosphere clean and inviting

This location is 10x better than bank and hunt club which had purple lettuce, messy sandwich and just all together Terrible

St laurent mall location is a perfect 10/10, I wish all subways were this good“

“Clean, super professional and friendly customer service. It's consistent! It's subway so you know what you're getting... a sub. The person working doesn't turn up his nose at the ordered we have made. Great customer, I recommend drive to this subway even if it's not your closest one.“

“Had a great experience at Subway today around 6 PM! The service was excellent — very friendly and efficient the guy staff there, i told him i will give him good reviews. Our food was fresh and delicious, exactly how we wanted it. Definitely one of the better Subway visits we've had. Keep up the great work!“

“Amazing customer service. My husband is celiac and have to say this is the most satisfied we have been with precautions at any fast food restaurant in the last 3 years. Obviousally, cannot guarantee with 100% certainty no gluten, but they went over the top to ensure there was the least possible chance of cross contamination. Excellent food! Excellent service!“

“I had such a great experience thanks to Annabelle at the Subway on Hawthorn. After leaving the Boundary Rd location disappointed and leaving a 1-star review for the poor service there, I decided to drive out of my way hoping for something better — and Annabelle delivered! She was extremely kind, professional, and went above and beyond to make my visit enjoyable. I’m very grateful for the amazing service. Un très grand merci à Annabelle!“

“I showed up to this Subway and spent 20 minutes crafting the perfect sandwich for an online order (to snag that goated 2 for 1 coupon deal) and to say they constructed a sub suitable to a queens standards would be an understatement. The employee who was working was also very kind and conversational! Very epic experience?p.s. the Italian B.M.T. is in fact the biggest meatiest and tastiest sub“

“The staff is always friendly and generous with portions when I ask for more items on my sub. Always yummy!“

“Terrific food and exceptional service sums up my experience! The area is very clean and the environment is friendly and welcoming. My sub was prepared exactly how I asked and tasted better than I could imagine.

Kid-friendliness: Booster seats available for kids

Wheelchair accessibility: Roll under tables and good countertop height“

“The service at this location is great and efficient and Riya is very customer oriented a locationnd is doing a great job. kudos to the staff at this“

“A few weeks ago I placed a catering order for 11 lunch boxes for a corporate event. This was the only location that accepted it and gave me the confidence that they would take care of everything and they did. The service was incredible and fast. Highly recommended.“

“I ordered a footlong BMT and it was the best i ever had. Thank you to the morning guy who made my sub.“

“My favorite and go to SUBWAY in my area!I worked at this mall a few years ago and the previous management was really sloppy, after visiting recently the new management and team is incredible! Thanks for the fresh food and cookies, the kids love it! Bring back the BBQ rib please“
