Subway

One of the best subways I’ve been to. And I’ve been to a lot of subways. Not that I’m proud or anything… But the staff was great, everything was clean and the bread was fresh as hell. Not like that hell hole in woodburn…

You know, as far as subways go, this one was pretty good. The staff is well trained and everyone greeted me when I walked in and not in an overly aggressive way. It’s a larger floorplan than I seen before. The food is what you typically get from the chain, but an overall good experience here. If I’m in the area, I’d go there again.

First of all I’d like to say that I’ve been a Subway fan for a while. Hard to beat $ 5 for a reasonably good, consistent sandwich. The location near Queen Avenue is the best one based on room temperature (which is important to me) the old North Albany store was consistently kept at about 40 degrees below zero. They have moved to a new location in North Albany next to the Jackson’s/Chevron. (Haven’t tried it yet)
However, my review in this case is about their new offering, «The Flatizza.» It is The MOST disgusting thing they have ever offered. Anyone has ever offered. I warn you, stay away from it. Run. Far Away. It was, at best, room temperature, sauce was terrible and it had some sort of «mozzarella cheese.» Stick with sandwiches, Subway.

They are some of the nicest «sandwich artists» I have encountered. Yes, it is a Subway, but they always greet you and always engage in some conversation with you even when it is busy. Also, I have been apologized to numerous times due to the wait when I need a sandwich. Some of them can’t comprehend putting the cheese on the hot meat to make it melt before adding veggies, but that is a rant for another day. An easy 4 stars for what they are offering.

My boyfriend and I decided to pick up dinner here one evening before heading to Seattle. During the trip, my stomach began to gurgle a bit. Tried to go to the restroom with no luck. It began to get better after a while. However, about a few hours later, we got to our location and immediately I had to run to the bathroom. To make a long story short, let’s just say I was in the bathroom for a couple hours. I felt like death. Got up around 5am with stomach cramping again. I was in the bathroom for a few more hours (literally). The person I was visiting is a doctor (thank God). He asked if I had mayo at Subway and I replied yes. And it was the only thing I had to eat all day. My boyfriend opted out on the mayo at Subway (thank God again). He said I most likely had ecoli from bad mayo according to the specific symptoms I had.
I will never eat at Subway ever again, especially not this one. There is no way it could be anything else I ate because I didn’t eat or drink anything else that day except water.

Your basic subway, only with friendly competent sandwich makers… Extra star for stocking provolone!
We frequently stop here on our way to Corvallis… A solid choice for healthy lunch on the go…
