Mr Sub

After visiting this location last night I can’t say that I would ever be back or recommend this to anyone. My buddy and I walked in with coupons for a free 6″ sub. After reading these coupons we noticed that there were no restrictions on what type of sub we could order. The man behind the counter took the coupons and said we could only use them for «Classics» which was not printed on the coupon. After throwing what looked like a few pieces of meat and cheese on bread with the smallest amount of sauce you have sever seen he assured us our subs were ready. He asked if we wanted them t go and barley even wrapped the subs as he handed them too us. Because of that we opted to not but any drinks or chips. All in all not a great experience.

Delish subs loaded with toppings. Can’t complain. The staff are super friendly and don’t turn up their noses if you ask for extra toppings. Cheaper than subway too.

I am a regular for years here, I have been eating the Vegetarian Sub here for over 26 years, can’t believe I’m not tired of it, love the secret sub sauce, which is a italian dressing, and pineapple, which is hidden in the fridge, it makes my sub complete, so I have get the multigrain bread, double cheese, onion, lettuce, tomato, banana peppers, and pineapple with Secret sub sauce, and a touch of salt and pepper. My masterpiece, so basicly I have to say that I love mr. sub…it’s always pleasing and makes me complete!

The couple of times I’ve popped in here for lunch I have been pleasantly surprised at how engaging the staff have been. A nice friendly greeting upon arriving, great service through the ordering process, and a «thank-​you» when leaving.
The food is average for a chain sub shop but the service here bumps things up in my book.

There are tastier subs like quiznos or thi thi but at this place the owner remembers me no matter how often I come. She asks me about my life and has a positive attitude. The employees remember me and know how I like my subs. The ingredients always look fresh and the soup is never more than a day old unlike some other places. Respect and service goes a long way with me.

Mr. Sub, to me, is «the original». I’m a pretty big sandwich fan, and I enjoy «the competitors» subs as well. However, every time I am in a Mr. Sub, it brings me back to eating sub sandwiches back in public school in Northwestern Ontario, where Mr. Sub was the only option.
To me, Mr. Sub is «comfort food».
I have frequented the Mr. Sub on Macleod Trail a few times, the truth is, it is no better, or worse than any Mr. Sub I have been in, simply because this franchise is consistent. I can get teh same sandwich at any of them, and it will likely taste exactly the same.
However, a few things about this individual location that I would like to share:
— I went in there on St. Patrick’s Day, and the guy who made my sub was polite and efficient.
— The cashier, who was not preparing any food was totally decked out for St. Patty’s Day. She was in a full out hallowe’en costume, complete with wig, long fake gold costume nails, and a green dress. Her spirit was absolutely wicked!
— This subway has lots of parking, and is rarely busy. Two reasons why I like this location. I can get in and get out with my sammy in tow.
— It was clean. I was not afraid to eat there.
Way to go, Mr. Sub! Thanks for holding steady in the year 2011, where there are many competitors. You’ve been around long time!
