Twice now I’ve ordered flatbreads and they delivered a regular sub on white bread. How do you mess up the basics? Would love to call and complain, but of course their phone number is disconnected. Also, WAY too much salt and pepper, completely inedible

😠 Highly Disappointed: Restroom Access Denied After Purchase! (Subway - 5th Ave, San Diego)
My visit to the Subway on 5th Avenue in San Diego was extremely disappointing and left me questioning basic health and safety standards.
I was dining in and had already started drinking my soda when I needed to use the restroom. However, when I asked the attendant (who I would describe as an older white male he is in one of the pictures , I was immediately told that I could not use the facility. His exact quote was that "he can not allow anyone in the bathrooms."
This is unacceptable. As a dine-in establishment that sells beverages, it is reasonable for customers to expect access to a working restroom. Being denied access to a necessary facility while actively consuming food on the premises is not only poor customer service but, if I am not mistaken, may be a serious violation of local health codes for public dining establishments in San Diego.
This policy/attitude is completely out of line. I will be contacting the local health department to clarify the law on this matter. I expect better from a national chain like Subway.
Zero stars for service and facility standards.

I was very hungry yesterday, so I drove here specifically to buy a sandwich with a coupon. The clerk refused to let me buy it because he said he couldn't scan the code. I saw that there were many QR code scanners in the store, and I hoped he could sell it to me, but he didn't. I had to leave. Thank you so much for your service!

My sandwich was good BUT the young lady employee on day shift was pure evil. As I sat at a table eating a homeless guy entered asking for a free Sprite & the employee said no, which isn’t the problem. A customer overheard & ordered the sprite for him but the employee just froze & starred at her like she was crazy, so the customer got mad. ”I am a paying customer ordering a sprite, why are you just staring at me? Can you please make it before he gets too far away!” The employee wouldn’t move, she just continued this scary blank stare. She didn’t want the homeless man having a drink even if someone else paid for it. The customer goes of, rightfully so in my opinion. The employee finally makes the drink & the customer tries to chase the man down to give it to him but lost him. She returns angry & tells the employee her lack of empathy is disgusting. The employee then threatened not to take her order & kick her out of the store if she “continues being rude”. The customer wasn’t rude, the employee was acting like a full blown sociopath & was upset that someone dared to challenge her. The fact that the older female manager was present & didn’t step in was even more disgusting but then again she may be scared of that young girl. The pure evil was palpable. I don’t know how she got that job. She doesn’t need to be customer facing. I will never ever return to this subway. This was last week but I just remembered to write this review. The owner of this franchise needs to learn how to choose employees better. There’s no way I’d ever hire such a person & let them sabotage my business. She can’t even fake being a decent human being so there’s no way that management or the owner is unaware. I’m sure they know exactly who I’m talking about which proves they know.
