Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop

Man I really wish there was a location closer to home. As we passed through the Elkton area we had to swing in for 2−20″ subs. Capstrami & Bobbi were the choice. Damn Good!

Love love love their subs! Especially their Capastrami, Cheesesteaks, & the Bobby. Awesome subs & reasonable prices.

Hands down The Bobbie is incredible. A piece of heaven in my mouth. I wish I lived closer, better believe I will be back each trip back home to NY.

For visit Sunday Feb 8
Ok. I am fully aware of places that exist to operate as a sub shop. But I have been to plenty of sub shops that have clean floors and windows. Please for love of God Capriotti’s clean your floor.
Moving on. When I walked in the door there was a older lady hanging in then doorway like she was looking was waiting for someone, she left as my hubby was walking in. We go over to figure what we were ordering. As we were ordering, the lady returns she flings a bag of open sandwich rolls at the cook. She is with someone and they proceed to walk to the back area then came in the kitchen area to hug people that are cooking and making sandwiches all the while lugging her filthy coat. ugghh. how is this even sanitary? You can best believe I was watching every moment to be sure my food wasn’t being effected by this. Luckily our food wasn’t even on the grill yet.
I ordered Chicken Cheese steak, with lettuce mayo and hots. He ordered Grilled Italian with everything and a tiny bit of hots. Grilled cheese for the child.
What we got Chicken Cheese Steak with lettuce mayo, hots and pickles. Now I despise pickles on HOT SANDWICHES so I would have never ordered that. Yuck. And Grilled Italian with everything and TON and I mean a TON of hots.
2 small subs, 1 sandwich and 3 chips almost 26.00. No Drinks because their drink choices SUUCCCKKKK. No fountain options and all random items in the fridge. No lemonade, no iced tea off brand water. Yes. Im that person a water snob. At least have some basic Deer Park geeezee.
Anyway was my sandwich good, yes after I had to dig through and pick the pickles off. My kid liked her grilled cheese, but that’s not hard to mess up. My hubby couldn’t finish his sub due to the amount of hots after I clearly requested a tiny bit of hots.
Will I return. no. This Capriotti’s wont be getting my $$$ and I know this is a chain but this visit has left a nasty taste in my mouth for the rest of the Capriotti’s out there.
Luckily we did not drive out of our way to get here.

Absolutely love their subs! You get a great amount of food for your money and every sub is better then the next. They are very quick when you order and have it win 15 minutes even during busy times. A must visit

Passing through on our way to Philly. Every employee here was super nice and all wished us a great 4^th of July Weekend. Subs were amazing as well!

I like Capriattis A LOT, but it is a chain that has become pretty big and this is probably the worst I’ve been to. The service was incredibly slow compared to other locations and the bread somehow wasn’t as good as normal. It’s tough to go wrong with a chain that you really like normally, but this one isn’t the best

Legend has it that a Capriottis sub is the best around! I do find that to be true. However, the employees look and act like they HATE people and are bothered by the fact that customers keep coming in! Do the employees at the Elkton Capriottis realize that if they had no customers, there would be no need for them (the workers)? Maybe they should start to appreciate each and every customer coming into that establishment, I mean, we DO PAY THEIR PAYCHECKS… I hope the owner of this place gets this review… you need to replace that miserable staff with people who actually appreciate the idea of being employed.

Had a large Bobbie Sub, but really bought a large box of stuffing & cranberry … Where’s the Turkey !!! Last visit to this location !!!

My husband and I went to Capriotti’s on a Friday, after the lunchtime rush but before dinner time. We had done a lot of errands that day and wanted a nice warm sandwich before continuing our day.
We were the only clients in the store when we arrived, a girl took our order and the sandwiches were prepared in about 7 minutes. I was kind of bummed at the lack of selection and no warm sides (I was really craving some fries, a one a year treat for me, but alas, not that day) and lack of choices for topping the sandwich. I got a chicken «philly,» which was okay, but definitely not worth the price. I was disappointed that the bread was not only not toasted but kind of cold. The chicken was decent, the «fired» onions were a bit raw (I love onions but these could have used another few minutes on the grill, way too much crunch still). My husband got a steak philly and was happy with it.
During the time we were waiting for our sandwiches, a couple more customers came in and were waiting for their orders. The place is tiny, and it was slightly crowded. So when else would you mop but right at that moment? One of the workers came from behind the corner to start mopping, even though the store was crowded, the floor was dry and it was a sunny day– no mess on the floor or anything. As she started cleaning (mind you, no orders were complete yet, seems like she could have been helping with the actual food) she proceeded to hit me in the head with the mop handle. She then looked at me and stated «I didn’t know you wre there,» and proceeded… Um…
While a restaurant is about serving food, it will not get repeat customers if they cannot prioritize nor apologize once beaming someone in the head. Enough said.

The food is good, as all Capriotti’s locations I have ever tried, but the service was HORRIBLE… I live local to there so I go there often and they have the absolute rudest staff I have ever encountered!!!
I now travel further out of my way to go to a different location because I dislike their staff so much!

I’ve been a big fan of Capriotti’s for years. I moved away from Maryland in 1997, and would come back to visit family and go to Ocean City. My wife’s grandmother lived around the corner from one and every time we would visit, we just had to go to Caps.
Bar-​none, THIS is what a sub-​shop should be like. Plenty of meat on the subs, unlike Subway who puts a pound of lettuce on a sub with a thin strip of meat.
I can’t rate this highly enough. 5 stars simply isn’t enough. Fortunately, they opened a Caps about 30 – 40 minutes from my house and drive there several times a month. It’s a long drive, but WORTH IT. On the way to Ocean City, I stop by (I think it’s Lewes, DE) and pick up subs for everyone.
These guys don’t skimp on their subs. If you have the means, I highly recommend you give them a try. You’ll be hooked for life and it’ll ruin you for other subs anywhere else.

The subs get 5 stars but since it is carry-​out only 4. The cheesesteaks are the best out there period. If you get a large it will feed an Army!

We visit Elkton about 4 times a year and every time I hit town I head to Capriotti’s for a capastrami sub! (Pastrami, cole slaw, swiss cheese, and russian dressing.) Good sandwiches made fast.
The only thing that would make this a perfect place is to have seating in-​house.

I have actually considered driving up from DC for a Capriotti’s sub. The Cole Turkey (turkey, coleslaw, provolone, Russian Dressing) is phenomenal, but you can’t go wrong with a classic turkey on a kaiser. The secret to Capriotti’s success — at least with me — is their turkey. It’s no lunch meat — it’s as if they pulled it off the bone just for me. Delicious.
Be forewarned: There’s nowhere to eat in the deli, but the food is really cheap for the quality of the product. I think my turkey on a kaiser was four or five bucks. Maybe I’m just accustomed to DC prices, but this is a steal to me.
