    Worst Subway ever. They just threw my sandwich together like snobs. They were both east Indian ladies but the one without Glasses she is the one who made my sandwich. Witch I am very unsatisfied about. Like what kind of sandwich is this. There is hardly any meat in my sandwich. They just sprinkled very little of lettuce but over topped it with sauce. That's disgusting behavior. I miss the old owners, they satisfied us customers more. If I could give 0 stars I would. I ordered myself a 6in ham and turkey.

    This is my local subway. In the 10 years I have been going to this location, I have asked for soup. Every visit. Every time I get told they are sold out. Maybe they should make more.

    I’m extremely pissed off with the way I was treated came in to get 2 bowls of the rotisserie chicken And I asked for a double chicken on both bowls Lovpreet Extremely unprofessional in the way she treated me and addressed me in what I wanted. She said that 2 1/2 cup Scoops was equal 60g and protein she refused to give me double chicken on both bowls but I still paid for double chicken not sure if she is the Manager but her customer service is lacking to a abnormal extreme. I will see to it that this get addressed as I my self teach new hires how to treat customers and the experience I just received was the furthest from kind. I will also send an email to head office for this franchise. How much do we spend in total?

    I hope you don’t mind receipt paper in your “steak”!! I can’t add videos to this but they literally left that paper in the food for 5+ minutes and worked around it scooping steak onto sandwiches instead of having the common sense to deal with it. Terrible staff with no idea how the food industry or customer service works.
