Honey Ham & Subs

I haven’t found a better sub shop around Portsmouth. I really like the Honey Bee, 2 kinds of ham and then bacon. It’s like the ultimate pig sandwich!
If you think Subway is shit, if you think Moe’s is too Italian (all oil and Italian meats), then I think Honey Ham is the sweet spot.
I also like their fries and pita chips.

My favorite sub shop on the seacoast. Never a messy sub. Great service and great food always fresh and clean. Always the same guy preparing your meal so they are consistently satisfying. Try the home made pita chips. Favorite subs– Smoke stack and chicken parm.

Great sandwiches, always been my hidden gem. Highly recommend to co-​workers and friends.
The best is the Smoke Stack Sub and you have to try the fries & pita chips.

I gave it a try today. told the friendly sandwich guy that i wanted to try to duplicate a Moes. He laughed and took charge. black forest ham, genoa, provolone peppers onions and tomatoes on the best sub roll ever. The taste test proved it a winner hands down. Absolutely fabulous. I recommend it but I know I can never convert my sons who love Moes cuz it ‘Moes’.

Great subs! Fresh, perfectly constructed, delicious. We had a house club and a Santa fe club — both awesome. Daughter had chicken noodle soup which she loved. Not a great décor, but to pick up food for the beach or whatever, worth stopping. Since we discovered, we’ve been back just about any time we pass by on way to the beach, or home.

Looking for a place to grab lunch, I decided to stop by Honey Ham & Subs, which is located next door to the Bowl-​O-​Rama. It was a cold raw Saturday, parking lot very packed, and there was a glow in the dark bowling event in full effect, so no open bowling (rats!).
I popped in and checked out the posted menu which offers cold deli subs and hot subs, specialty sandwiches, salads, soups, chili, chicken tenders, fries, and onion rings. They use Dietz & Watson meats on their made to order subs. The prices however are on the higher side (it’s Portsmouth!): small subs ($ 5.99-$ 7.25), large subs ($ 6.50-$ 7.50), and specialty sandwiches ($ 7.50-$ 7.99). A half sub & cup of soup special is $ 7.99.
I decided to order a large Honey Ham Sub ($ 6.75 plus tax) which was made quickly. The large honey ham sub (11 inches) did not seem large for the price ($ 7.36 with tax) and not overstuffed with ham & condiments (lettuce, tomatoes, mayo, cheese) on a good crusty Italian sub roll. On the flipside, I could order a very tasty and filling $ 5 Footlong Black Forest Ham Sub at Subway and load up that «sucker» with an entire salad bar. The sub I had tasted pretty good though.
Probably will not return anytime soon.

I have been driving by Honey Ham and thinking of stopping but months. Finally stopped for lunch before bowling. So glad we did!
Get a ham sandwich! I had the honey bee club — delicious. The BF got roast beef, which was a good roast beef sandwhich, but come on! Its a HAM store!
Homemade pita chips! MMMmmmm!

Talk about a hidden gem. On the suggestion of coworkers, my husband and I ordered from Honey Ham & Subs today, and think that this could very well be our sub shop of choice from here on out. We tried the House Club Sub — roast beef, peppered turkey, bacon & cheese (amazing) — and the Smoke Stack Sub — smoked ham, smoked turkey, bacon and swiss (a bit too peppery for our tastes, but good). There are about 7 different sub specials, and about two dozen sandwiches on the menu, plus the typical sides.
We also tried the fries, which I believe are now my favorite fries in Portsmouth. If you like fries from Wing-​Its or Café Nostimo, you’ll enjoy these too.
This place also makes its own homemade pita chips, and sells them in bags to go, but you can sample them first — the ranch are a great twist, but they offer fiesta (spicy), plain salted, and cinnamon sugar. The hours are weird — they’re not open too late throughout the week — but if you’re craving a good sub for lunch, you will not be disappointed if you try this place.
