Subway

No employees and lines. I just started working in OB and was excited at seeing a Subway near by. That was going to be my goto for lunch. After going there give days in a row I’ve given up. There are always people waiting to order a food and only one employee. I’ve missed lunch five times because of the pathetically slow service lines and lack of employees. Thank you subway for showing me how little you care about your customers.

This place gave my friend food poisoning that sent her to the ER! The staff was friendly, the sandwich was made poorly. I stopped in on my way to the beach because Subway is always cheap and fairly healthy but I won’t be returning to this location. Unilocal Pro Tip: Don’t get the tuna sandwich unless you like uncontrollable vomiting and diarrhea.

The staff is nice, but the 6″ Tuna Sandwich on Wheat with veggies sent my friend to Urgent Care. WTF? :(

32 $ for 2 tuna sandwiches
* tuna
* extra avocado
* EXTRA EGG 4 $ !!! for each sandwich!
Shame on u Subway
i could buy a jacket for this price

Regular subway store, but Lucas was amazing as so friendly! He needs a raise and he is amazing at making sandwiches of course. We are always so happy to see him when we go on for lunch or dinner :)

The food is just as good as it gets with any Subway, but what really sold is the customer service, especially coming from this young man, Lucas. He seemed so positive, and genuinely caring about the customer.

I like to experiment and tell the Subway guys, like Mauzy and Lucas, to make me what they would want, right then if they could have any sub any way. Take the reigns! This one is one of the most unconventional and superbly unique sandwiches yet! He toasted it to make the edges ‘pizza like’ and added Tuna! Phenomenal! I thought I was dreaming! I’ve been taken on a magical flatbread pizza submarine carpet ride! Way to go above and beyond with your service Mauzy and Lucas! I’ll be back tomorrow for a subtacular Subway experience!

It’s hard to post a review about a chain restaurant like subway, but it has officially become not worth going here anymore. Not only are there no more 5 $ sandwiches but my friends meatball sub had 4 meatballs on a 12″ sub. That’s one meatball for every quarter of the sandwich. Two subs and 2 bags of chips for 20 $? I’d rather go to a nice deli with freshly sliced meats and cheeses.

Quick reliable friendly service. They please you with what you need with a smile. They also can save you money with their specials.
Great people!

My fiancé and I were planning a beach day last weekend. We usually bring sandwiches from one of the surrounding shops in OB. For whatever reason we both thought Subway sounded good and we haven’t had it in a while.
When entering the first thing I noticed were the clean tables and workstations, which seems rare with only one employee working. It wasn’t very crowded so we didn’t have to wait in a long line. The guy making the sandwiches was very polite and not skimpy with the veggies which seems rare at Subways these days.
Overall you get what you pay for. Not the best sandwiches or the best ingredients but it’s near the beach and convenient.

Five stars due to the staff. All so very friendly & nice.
Food is meeeh, it’s good– don’t get me wrong but it’s fast food :) I wish this location had the seafood sensation sub or the croissant bread but I’m still happy:)

The female worker I had is always excellent, and speaks perfect English, but on the other hand, there is a male worker (Middle-​eastern or something?) that always messes up my orders. The male worker misheard me (He has English issues), and put oil and vinegar on my sandwich. Not a big deal, mistakes happen, it’s how you fix those mistakes that determines the customer service quality. I ask him if he could remake the sandwich and he tells me that he can’t. Because I was pressured by my embarrassed girlfriend to not complain, I ended up paying for it and leaving. I threw my sandwich right in the next garbage can. I will not be returning.

Only cuz I got the munchies.

5 stars for the guys making The Ark. (Double meat Feast plus Bacon)

I eat at this subway all to often — But I’ve never had any major complaints. It’s one of they only food chains in OB aside from the Jack in the Box on Voltaire. Anyway, a quick tip — if your sub is toasted in California you will get charged tax, which is about an extra 50 cents. So if you’re penny pinching, eat cold.

Please give this Subway another shot!
I work there now! The owner does hire alot of middle easterners, even I can’t understand what they’re saying at times. But the crew that works there now is really good. Just be patient and keep an eye on your sandwich.
Thanks Danny, it is hard to follow all the corporate shenanigans AND keep a smile on your face. We HAVE to ask all those questions, even if we know you probably dont want bacon on your ham sandwich ;o)
Please come try us again!
I just ask that you call in the order if you want more than 2 footlongs, Please ;o)

I hate to disagree with top dog Danny W., but I find this Subway to be not very good. Although it is in a convenient location in Ocean Beach, it always seems to have employees who don’t know what they are doing. Maybe the owner is employing relatives or getting federal tax breaks for hiring paroles or jailbirds? Something’s not right here.
I went in yesterday to get my boy his favorite flat-​bread breakfast sandwich. If you got a breakfast item, you can get a 6 inch sandwich for $ 3, supposedly. Well, the clerk claimed not to know how to ring it up and was afraid that the boss would yell at him if he tried.
This is the same employee who was in the back chewing something when I walked in.
Last time I came down on my bike and hopped off to buy that same flat-​bread breakfast sandwich. This time another dude rang it up wrong and over-​charged me but he didn’t know how to fix the price on the register? I knew it should be $ 2.18 and offered to leave exactly that amount but that wasn’t right since he wanted to give me a receipt.
The Subway on Midway is perfectly run-​the chick that manages that place is dynamite. All her employees snap to attention the minute you walk in the door and greet you. They seem to have something between their ears too-​I guess that might be brains?
I am no prima donna and don’t expect clerks and workers to kiss my ass. But I have just enough couth left to enjoy being waited on properly. In my working days, I always won every customer service award since I enjoy treating people nice. I would expect the same thing from any business that hopes to make it in this cold, cruel retail world! O.B. Subway-head’s up!

I normally compare eating a sandwich at Subway to going to the prom with ones sister – it’s boring and certainly nothing to brag about. Alas my susceptibility to ad campaigns has now and then brought me to (figuratively) go to the prom with my own sister from time to time.
You gotta hand it to the advertising minds behind the Subway account. It’s amazing to me how every time I see Jared’s goofy ass or hear that damned «5 Dollar Footlong» jingle I want to put my foot through the TV, yet whenever I want something quick and somewhat healthy, I shamefully crawl back to Schlubway. It is what it is and as long as it exists I’m sure despite not being particularly fond of the chain I’m probably going to pop in now and then based on shear convenience. Those muther effers are just everywhere!
My Subway bias aside, this particular location has got their shit together. It’s the A-​team of Subway staff. The management must have force fed the employees the handbook during orientation because every encounter I’ve ever had in here I’ve been greeted with a loud «Welcome to Subway» and asked several other questions that barely ventured outside the realm of standard Subway language.
What’s most amazing about it is that for all of the corporate monotony that these employees have to go through on a day-​to-​day basis they seem to be pretty darn friendly. If I had to scream at the top of my lungs «Welcome to Subway» every time a customer walked in the store I would certainly not be able to ask «How’s your day going sir?» It would be more like «Here’s your f***** sandwich now get the f*** out of my face!» I really have to tip my hat to these folks for keeping their cool when I’m sure they were so sick of reciting the same noise that they wanted to throw me in a sleeper hold when I asked for extra meat.
Their sandwich artistry is truly that. The guy who made my last Subway club was like the Da Vinci of sando slinging. I didn’t know whether to eat my footlong or try and sell it to the Guggenheim. Although he did take a bit longer than I usually wait for a sub the fixens-​to-​meat ratio assembled made for one of the best Subway experiences I’ve ever had in my life.
It goes against all that I believe a sandwich should be to ever give a Subway a 5 star review, but these guys came mighty close. If only they were serving a different product. Mad kudos guys, you turned a normally «sister-​prom-​date» type of experience into a «really-​hot-​friend-​of-​your-​older-​sister-​pitty-​prom-​date» experience.

I went here to this Subway today, and for a Subway, I give 3 stars.
I had the grilled chicken breast which looks unappetizing. They have all the fix ins, incuding spinach.
The service was fast for a Subway and the Sandwich was good. Not too bad. Not great. A safe bet if in the neighborhood looking for a quick, cheap bite.
