Sandwich Shops near Lake Forest Park

“I recently visited the Subway located at 17171 Bothell Way NE Suite A002 in Lake Forest Park, and I must say, the experience was quite unique and enjoyable and a stark reminder that you’re never too old or educated to be reminded of the struggles of small business owners in America.

One notable aspect of this particular Subway is their policy on coupons. Unlike other locations, they do not accept any kind of coupons, including those from Safeway. This policy was clearly indicated by a sign, which I hadn't noticed at first.

After being informed by one of the sandwich makers, I decided to visit another Subway.

However, I returned a minute later to take pictures and video for my review.

As I was taking pictures and video, the owner, Tim, happened to be there and approached me to inquire about my activities. I explained my reasons and wondered how he would respond.

In moments like these, especially in business, a person's leadership skills and professionalism can really shine through. Tim proved to be a true professional and an outstanding leader. He generously shared his perspective on the coupon policy.

Tim explained that accepting coupons makes it difficult for him to maintain profitability, as the discounts lead to financial losses. He even offered to open his books and show me the financial impact, which led to a greater conversation.

I was genuinely impressed by Tim's honesty and transparency. He came across as a very genuine and sincere individual. After our conversation, I decided to support Tim and his local Subway by going back in to have dinner. Tim even offered to pay for my meal, but I politely thanked him and insisted on supporting a local business owner.

Overall, the freshness and quality of the food, combined with the exceptional service and Tim's dedication to his business, made for a very positive dining experience.

If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by this Subway to enjoy a fresh and delicious meal while supporting a hardworking.“

“Oyster poor boy was the best sandwich ever“

“Awesome sandwiches and atmosphere.“

“So much delicious food here. Best turkey pot pie soup, apple crisp, and lasagna. Sandwiches are a mainstay. Recommend ordering ahead a little to avoid a wait, as everything is made to order.“

“Waited patiently as this shop reworked the old Lyon's Den coffee house here in Bothell, and when I found they were open I went and had them make me a sandwich. And then another. And then a third, and now I'm on a fourth (the joker dip) as I write this review. Because they're just that good. I don't go there daily (I don't want to tire of them!), but what with them being across the street from the post office where my mail goes, it's not only an easy stop, it's a winner as far as the food. Food is quite tasty, staff are wonderful and friendly. This isn't fancy, interior is mostly a no-frills vibe, but you will not regret getting a sandwich from these guys. For any New Yorkers reading this or similarly inclined to this end, if you want your Durkee turkey you gotta buy your own Durkee sauce for home; sorry, I don't make the rules, and I don't know of any sandwich shop in Seattle that carries the sauce.“

“There are places that claim to make good sandwiches. Valhalla makes great sandwiches. I have had two competitors sandwiches this week and I was so disappointed. Valhalla puts out a product that’s swings way above its price point. They put “gourmet” in gourmet sandwiches.“

“Excellent food and service!“

“Toasted subs on garlic bread?? Yes please!

This little shop is hidden in the very corner of an open plaza, behind the big Lennon statue in Freemont, so it might be easy to miss at first. It does take a little time for them to prepare your sandwich, which they're very up front with (I think it was about 5-8 minutes for me when the shop is empty). But it's totally worth it. Staff is fantastic, friendly and helpful.

Pictured here is my favorite, the Itallian. The bread is so warm and fluffy. The crust is firm but not tough or hard to chew and brushed with garlic butter.

I always get my sandwich to go, though they do have outdoor seating in addition to their bar style counter inside. They always wrap it up nice and in foil so it's usually still nice and hot when I get home. Water is complementary, with some local hard cider and other beverage options.

They have the ability to take orders over the phone if you don't want to wait around, you can call ahead. I saw they have some sandwiches that can be adjusted to be vegetarian as well.“

“Omg I just had the predator sandwich and it was amazing. This was the best sandwich I ever had and definitely made with love and friendly customer service . I strongly recommend 2 thumbs up.“

“Fantastic Service and food, the people working there met us with a smile every time they talked to us. The owners of the place were some of the nicest people I have ever met, they made me feel happy. The food was so good, and no matter what I could get I would always want to try something else too. The whole place was so comfy too, it felt way more welcoming than I would have ever expected. This place was amazing and I can’t wait to go back.“

“Huge, delicious sandwiches on focaccia. Nice space with a patio out front. Pricing on the sandwiches is not crazy imo, but I paid $10 for a can of beer I was expecting to be on draft. Cocktails are decent but not a cheap place to grab a drink.“

“Delicious. I eat the Sauteed Prawn sandwich every week.“

“Wonderful experience here! Uber eats delivery messed up my big group lunch order and when I went to pick up what I could, they remade everything for me that was not delivered. They even gave me a delicious cup of curry from the sushi/bento spot across the way while I waited for the remake. I was thankful for such understanding! The food is awesome. I will definitely be ordering from here again. Thank you so much for your kindness!!“

“Please open one in Cle Elum!! DELICIOUS!! Five ⭐️“

“captain rick!!! if you like the perfect amount of buttery crisp sourdough bun and chips in your sandwich and fresh crunch/explosive flavors in your tuna you'll want to eat this sandwich every day. also one of the few places that offers shrub drinks AND rotates flavors. can't wait to go back“

“Best thing about this place is the service. Three young ladies all working cleaning making sandwiches and they are super nice and as a bonus the food is really well done. I had the Thai chicken sandwich a small and they stuff it and it’s very good. My wife had the kind sandwich with turkey. The bread is really good too. I ah e to say I’ve never eaten at one but it’s the best of the sandwich places for sure. And that shop in I district has an excellent staff.“

“Had a special meatball sandwich and the gran sasso, absolutely delicious in every way. 100% will be back

Some contstructive feedback, If I could make a suggestion it would be to make the meatball a staple on the menu, probably some of the best meatballs I've ever had. But maybe think about using some sort of bright marinara sauce on the sandwich to dull the richness of the meatballs.

All the people working there were amazing and so nice. New favorite spot. Thank you!“

“Beautiful, lofty space to enjoy the sun or the rain in an upscale but unpretentious atmosphere. Distraction free (no televisions or QR codes). Top notch draft beer and loved the sandwiches -- my Italian Canadian husband said they reminded him of his mom's! If that's not a compliment I don't know what is.“

“The young man who served us today was so welcoming and polite, great service. 10/10 for service, this business is lucky to have him. The sandwich and fries were delicious. Indoor and a little outdoor seating. Bathrooms were clean. Will be back for sure.“

“Some of the best tomato soup I’ve had to start with, vegan and deliciously chunky. The Rajun Cajun sandwich lived up to the hype for the most part, but be aware of a small spot with few indoor seats and a 45-ish minute wait between the line and getting food in a Saturday lunch time.“

“Yum!! I had the Menchi Katsu Sando with potato salad. This is the Japanese equivalent of a meatloaf sandwich imo, but add cabbage. I wouldn’t say it looks super appealing but it was delicious. I would add the spicy mayo if you want to dial up the flavor profile.“

“I really enjoy getting my breakfast here—it’s become a go-to for me. The tuna sandwich is always a solid choice: fresh, satisfying, and super tasty. But what really stands out is their kimbap. It’s not always available, so if you see it, definitely try it. It’s hands down better than anything I’ve had in Seattle, Hmart, or even Trader Joe’s. Recently I’ve started trying out the bagels too. I love all the foods here. 🤩

The owners are so kind and welcoming. They always greet you with a warm smile, which makes the experience even better. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back—not just for the food, but for the people too.“

“The best sandwiches and homemade cookies! Awesome owners. You can't go wrong here ...“

“This might have to be my new go to sub place when I’m in Snohomish County. Very reasonable priced but more importantly, fresh ingredients and delicious. I got a large sub which was more than filling and it was under $20. That’s pretty amazing in this economy.“

“Love this place! The food is amazing, and the owner is super friendly — you can tell he takes real pride in every dish he creates. The space is very clean, quiet, and perfect for getting some office work done or catching up with friends. I work just down the street and happened to come across this spot, and I’m so grateful I did. Definitely try the sweet potato enchiladas on Fridays — they’re to die for! Love, love, love this place. 💖“

“Probably the best priced and quality subs sandwich I’ve ever ever had“

“I needed a solid sandwich to fuel a long hike and this place came through big time! I grabbed the Italian sub and it was loaded with fresh ingredients and tons of meat -- super flavorful and held up perfectly all the way to the top of the mountain. Nothing better than a great sandwich with a view (highly recommend tryng this!)

The staff was also incredibly nice and accommodating to my needs, making sure everything was just right for a to-go order. You can tell they take pride in what they do. I will definitely be back!“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting this subway, and I was beyond impressed! The restaurant was clean, which made for a really comfortable dining experience. The employees were friendly and welcoming, making sure my order was just right with great attention to detail. You can tell the owner truly cares about the business because everything was well-organized, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. And the food was good! Fresh ingredients, perfectly made, and exactly what I was craving.“

“Closet thing for this NJ guy that makes me smile. Yum on the Subs!!!“

“my first time ever going in was this morning , the lady working was very sweet and polite , the bacon an egg biscuit sandwich was tasty and delicious. I'll be back forsure 💯♥️“

“The owners were very efficient (granted, I was the only one there), and they have an incredible selection of sandwiches. The breakfast burrito is SO GOOD, the salsa is amazing! The only drawback is that the prices have risen from what's shown on Google.“

“Mendo Farms is one of my go-to's now for daily fare. Can't say enough about how courteous and considerate the staff are compared to most other establishments in Totem Lake. Erik, Filip, Julianna, Dave, Diana (I pretty much know them all by now) always greet you with smiles and enthusiasm. The menu is pretty unique and I'm hooked on the turkey avo. In a word, exceptional value all around.“

“DELICIOUS sandwiches, fresh bread and I watched them slice the meat in front of me! Macaroni salad and chocolate chip cookies also good! I hadn’t been there during this last year and I now wish it were closer to my house! Love this place.“

“I had such fantastic service from the lady working there on Friday night, 9/27/24. She was so efficient, made my sandwich really well and with care, and asked all the usual questions in a clear voice and useful order. I know it seems like there's not much difference between subway ordering, but she really stood out as doing a fantastic job. She also complimented my sweater, which was really nice because I've had a rough week and it was just such a pleasant thing to hear late night when I was tired and just needed some food. She had curly hair and a bandana, and if there's any possible way to give her a raise or at least a bonus, she very very much deserves it. Really made my night, which is hard to do at a fast food place. Thanks so much for being so awesome.“

“I love going to this subway only because of the awesome service I get from Adaena. Every. Single. Time. I am very picky and she has mastered to perfection the way I want my subs made. She is always friendly and welcoming.
Definetely a great asset to the team, definitely deserves a raise! for going above and beyond, every single time.
*I like the bacon extra crispy and this is how she made my sub today…😍“

“I missed Quiznos! I am from Alaska and while in Washington stopped in at this location. The team member served us great! Great attitude and quick service. My dad and I both got the Chicken Carbonara! It was everything I remembered of the Quiznos goodness I desired!
The place was clean as we ate in and I appreciate that as well! Hope to see you all again!“

“My experience at Jersey Mike’s was made by Mark!! I have recently broke my leg and am on crutches unable to carry anything. Mark not only helped recommend a sandwich I would like but also helped me bring it to my table, and came to check in the see if I needed anything else! Thank you Mark!!“

“I love this place!! Great food, Great service, and Great atmosphere! :) Daily specials with a vast variety of menu items and catering options. Plus, gluten free options as well (which I truly appreciate). Must try one of their many yummy smoothies-They customize the 'lean and green' for me and add coconut water, it is my personal favorite! ;)“

“My King Solomon was delicious and messy in the best way.“

“I ordered a homerun ham and received the regular one.I Got overcharged! The new way they have it set up you can't see what or how much they are putting on. I ordered the Italian herb and cheese bread she gave me the plain. Couldn't get the order right. Terrible service
I'm updating the rating because there is a very nice Hispanic male employee that is ALWAYS friendly. He always gets our sandwiches right. If he's not there we won't order. He deserves a BIG raise“

“Food and staff were amazing !! 5 star 🌟“

“I love that it is clean, so I don't feel I need to worry extra about getting food poisoning. I have some disabilities and they are always very accommodating. The staff have all been very friendly. I generally get the same sandwich, and theirs are the best I have had. I'd imagine that's because they are clean and seem as sanitary as this kind of place can be. I will definitely be going back. Thanks you guys! :)“

“I expected some good fish and chips, but this place goes above and beyond. Everything made from scratch. The presentation looked like no other fish n chips ive ever had. Hand filleted fish, and the fries even sliced in a way that made this meal a 10 out of 10“

“Excellent service, always friendly and it's always nice to enjoy the Subway of the day, as well as take my coupons and use them on my sandwich, but it makes me sad that the meat portions They are minimal and the cuts of meat look very thin. I don't know if it's the employees' fault or the owner's responsibility.“

“I recently visited the Subway store, and overall, it was a mixed experience. The store was clean, and the food tasted good, which are essential factors for any dining establishment. However, I encountered significant frustration when attempting to place an online order.After placing the order and making the payment, it was repeatedly canceled. I reached out to the store, but the staff couldn't provide a clear explanation or help resolve the issue. This was disappointing because I couldn't take advantage of online offers and save time, which is one of the main reasons for using online ordering services.I would recommend the store manager to investigate and address this issue promptly to enhance the overall customer experience. The taste of the food was satisfactory, but the frustration with online ordering needs to be resolved for a more positive experience.“

“✅It's always empty when I go inside... Which is cool lol. ?✅Fast serviceI've been here a total of 3 or 4 times .✅The pretzels are AMAZINGLY delicious.✅My BLT? was to die for!!( I later on regretted not purchasing 2 of them .)✅The one lil' Mexican worker whose always there, she seems nice....⬇️⚠️Only complaint⚠️⬇️EVERYTIME I come inside-She-Is-NO WHERE- 2- B- Found!She's always coming from the back of the store, I'm just concerned because it takes her a min to come out & serve me and all it takes is a min or 2 for a thief or something. Plus it's always empty there. Idk. Anyways.(2️⃣❎) She was on the ? with her boyfriend & they were speaking in Spanish (which I'm always suspect about ..??‍♀️idk why; I always feel like they're talking about me, when they do that. But ... Maybe they're ? not.. )Over all I rate it 4 ⭐'s“

“The sandwich was good. Mine took a really long time. I saw people coming in and ordering and getting there's before me even though they ordered after me. The staff was very nice but did. Not cut or wrap the sandwich the way I asked, and I heard the order taker say it out loud. Still, very good sandwich, if really expensive.“
