One time I went… I had simply requested for MAYO on my sub sandwich and the man looked at me confused and had an attitude by saying something else that we already have lettuce? I said it again. MAYO. He said«ok» and poured the mayo in my sandwich with the mustard. That was it. This guy putting the veggies and fruit on my sandwich has serious attitude problems. I went back with my mother in the evening and this transgender woman was working the cash register and she was friendly. We requested to have 2 broccoli cheddar soups. Ours had came out luke warm which wasn’t hot at all but we got what we paid for along with our sandwiches that is the only thing good. I was afraid that I would be charged again if I asked for it to be HOT. I am NEVER dining in here again. PROS: + Good location by the 19 bus line. + Some hotels that are next to it and across from this fast food chain restaurant. CONS: — Too many groups of teenagers — Homeless, crackheads, weirdos, and in a very somewhat sketchy part of town so remember to count your blessings before you think to come back.

Speak very clearly!!! They don’t pay attention to what the fuck you want so you have to speak to them like a 3 year old. And I swear the guy in front of me asked for extra lettuce and the guy put 4 strings of lettuce more on top. I was like wow you Jew. Anyway they fucked up my sandwich because I said not to toast it and they did. So I tried to tell tell umm I didn’t want it toasted and the old Filipino lady got pissed. I was like it’s ok don’t get mad. Just be glad I don’t toss my sandwich at your face. Then I paid and left.

The food was fine, but I ate it there and soon a dirty, crazy, homeless person came in clutching a sharp ripped-up soda can. He proceeded to dance to the in-store music and drive away customers — including, eventually, myself. Meanwhile, the two store employees did nothing. I am tired of San Francisco businesses being overly tolerant. This is not the Summer of Love anymore. It’s time to get a backbone & exercise a private business’ right to eject people who ruin an experience for others(paying customers!). This kind of touchy-feely, crunchy spinelessness does not exist elsewhere. The crazy hobo made my meal unenjoyable. I will not be returning to this Subway.

Quality at this location has gone downhill fast. Once again this Subway was almost out of bread and only had one out of the six they normally offer. I was also charged sales tax even though state law mandates that no sales tax is charged on cold prepared foods if ordered«to go.» The employee said she could do nothing about it. Time to find another source for a quick sandwich.

Always get the same thing here. Salad with double veggie patty, most veggies(just not tomato), both shredded cheese but with a little extra. Top it off with chipotle southwest, Unfortunately they didn’t have the veggie patty. Since I’m vegetarian and Low-Carb/Keto I figured it wouldn’t make for a very filling meal. I decided to go elsewhere(I know I know, twice in a day) They’re playing James blunt, love the retro tunes.(Hence the 2 stars instead of 1)

Subway is Subway, you usually get what you’d expect — not this case. Not only was the lady preparing my food rude, she was also filthy and ruined my sandwich by adding the wrong ingredients(Parmesan cheese does not sound like extra mustard). The chicken was chewy and and fountain drink machine was sticky and in bad need of a cleaning. I feel like throwing up after eating there.

Went in and ordered flatizza skeptically. Was surprised at how good it was. Came with chips and two cookies for 7 dollars. Solid budget eat, Unilocalfam.

Subway tastes the same everywhere. It’s hard to hate subways. But this one is in a seedy location with people harassing you in and outside of subway.

Is this a cover for a more lucrative but illegal business? How is this place still open? I really wasn’t surprised when the sandwich lady STILL had 2 black eyes 3 months later when I gave this place a 2nd chance. They were SORUDE to EVERYONE. THEYSERIOUSLYDONTEVENTRYTOPROVIDEYOUR $ WORTH. They have more greasy meat on their faces than in their product. I hadn’t aren’t all day and after the first nasty bite, I threw it out and got bk hours later. They get one star, for what? Defying all the rules of providing a service?

I just moved to the area and I appreciate this place a lot! When I get done with my workout I come here occasionally to get the«Meatball Marinara» at night when I don’t feel going to a siting restaurant! I have a sensitive stomach and I’ve never had problems with the freshness of the veggies or redmeat. I did have an encounter with a stuff who was rude to me before, but it was during the day and the stuff at night are pure sweet hardworking folks. The area is changing a lot! But there are some strange people around this place and I don’t mind Cuz I can take care my own, but I’m always on look out for the impossible. I hope they keep trying hard so when I need a quick bite I know where to get my favorite Meatball Marinara… :)

Skip this one. Lots of crazies outside, coming in and out too. Every time I’ve been here someone has just walked in and stolen stuff — from drinks to cookies to chips. People have even come in an harassed the employees till they hand over a free sandwich. It doesn’t cost me anything, but it’s really annoying when I’m trying to eat. On top of all that, the ingredients at this location seem older, less fresh. It’s near to where I live, so I’ve been here a few times, and it took a while, but I finally caught on to the pattern that when I eat lunch here, I feel bad that evening. I feel sorry for the employees here, and the owner must be a retard.

Subway never fails me whenever I absolutely have no idea what to eat but still want something healthy. Staff here are nice, as long as they don’t spit in my sandwich I don’t care how they prep it. Now the thing that irks me about this Subway is the neighborhood. From the exterior you can see the all poop on the ground, the wet booger smeared all over the front window and sketchy ass people hanging outside just to haggle you for money. I would not recommend this location at all unless you MUST eat at that instant, otherwise go down couple blocks near Powell where it’s more manageable to sit and eat.

This Subway is totally convenient as it’s just around the block from where I work. I love Subway, it got me through the several lunch periods in high school so, we go way back. But I have to force myself to eat at this particular location, as the lunch options in this part of SOMA is pretty slim. The staff that work here are very friendly and work really hard, trying to get you in and out as well as keeping the resto clean. Prices are inflated compared to other locations and the infamous $ 5 footlong is only an urban legend at this location. Why this particular location loses stars is just that, the location. The staff has to put up with so much ‘ish, as it’s located right at the corner of 7th and Mission. So many people walk off the street filling their cups at the soda fountain, which makes me question how unsanitary the soda fountain area might be. The staff tries to play soda fountain police by turning the machine off when they catch someone but, that can’t happen all the time. Secondly, everytime I’m here, I always hear, «We don’t have courtesy(water) cups, you have to buy a cup.» Again, it’s people that are walking off the street asking for a cup, rather than actually buying a sandwich. But I think, if you buy a sandwich and want a cup for water, you should be able to get one at no charge. Overall, you’ll get the same Subway sandwich you’re used to at this location, it’ll cost you more and after reading my sentiments, I think I’ll get my sandwich to go from now on.

I have eaten here a couple times, I work 2 blocks away. But I won’t ever eat there again… I went in to this Subway last Friday(10/14/2011), and as I was looking at the menu board to decide what to order, a cockroach ran across the board. That was enough for me! I turned around and left. I will NEVER eat at that Subway again. I use to eat at Subway all the time, but since that happened, every time I see a Subway I think of cockroaches.

I’ve never actually eaten at this Subway. I’m sure it tastes like all other Subways. Which is fine. This review is for the outside. The corner that you have to use in order to enter and exit the Subway. I had an internship that forced me to walk past this Subway every morning. I have less than fond memories of the two old Chinese ladies with their carts that hang out on that corner, scowling at every single person that walks by. But the worst part was the smell of the Subway mixed with the smell of the seagull excrement and gross city life. I don’t know what makes that Subway smell so overpowering, but to this day I cannot smell Subway without feeling sick and smelling seagulls and seeing angry old women.

Seriously? They are super skimpy on the toppings here. The guy would grab some of a topping and sprinkle them on but by the time he’s ¾ of the way across the sandwich, he’s already run out of the topping and didn’t grab some more. I guess for $ 5 footlongs you can’t complain that much but my sandwich felt lopsided.

I go here all the time because i live right around the block. But its not the best subway to go to. It’s really slow and the guy is so dull and unhelpful. I feel the tomatos and lettuce is not fresh and a little on the brown side some time. All in all the i get sandwiches that are just fine there. And the new cheesecake cookies are amazing by the way! And really, If im eating subway its cause im try to save money so i know its not going to be the best. But when you have a drink and chips its like $ 8+ its getting way to expensive. Also Subway is advertising that«ANY» footlong is $ 5. But for some reason that not true cause its only Regular or classic ones. False Advertising

Okay BIATCHES!!! The hood is BACK!!! backdrop: — gutter full of hypodermic needles in a rushing river of dark yellow urine(of human origin, I opine) — bums be stalking, gawking and hawkin Bum #1: Man, Dressed entirely in black(on an 80 degree day) black leather coat, black jeans covered by black leather chaps. Wearing a shiny black motorcycle helmet with a metal wire around the brim with various compact disks hanging from the wire. Large scruffy beard with what looks like last nights speghetti o’s encased near his chin. Bum #2: Woman, dressed in dirty, sloppy pink and white horizontally striped, oversized pants and a white bra(no shirt) — her beard is almost as thick as Bum #1. Bum #3: Woman, looks like Freddie Kreuger on crack and smells like a decaying whale on Ocean Beach. Theme of the day for the bum crew? Incoherent singing, most closely resembling the theme to the Love Boat. Got my sammie, walked out the door, and lucky for me, call it intuition, good luck or sixth sense, I missed a hiding Bum #4 behind the entrance door that spewed a stream of fresh vomit that smelled like a combination of stomach bile, Popov Vodka, jalapeño peppers and Tums. Glad to have my hood back and in normal order.

A Subway is a Subway is a Subway… Same deal here. Saran-wrapped hands. Squeeze bottles of oil and vinegar. Some loud guy in front of you insisting on extra jalapeño peppers placed strategically on the melted cheese side. But hey, it’s MY Subway, and it just opened this afternoon. Located at Mission and 7th katty-korner from the disturbingly bad, never-open 98 Café(and the monolithic Fed building with the weird eighth note on its side), it’s smaller than most Subways, but it’s a lot less gamey than the one on Market next to Munch Haven. Oh but give it time. To support them, I got a six-inch Subway Club tonight that I didn’t even want, but I’ll eat a sourdough loaf any time. Certainly dependable. All the fixings came piling out as usual, but I ate it, dammit. Better enjoy it while it’s clean. An old Chinese woman was setting up shop on a blanket in front of the store window last week. Apparently she thought a new Thrift Town was opening. Where will she go with all that plastic junk now? FOOD — 3 stars… you really can’t knock a Subway sandwich… it is what it is… you know what you get coming in, you know what you got coming out… certainly can’t complain about a place that promises mediocrity and delivers it AMBIANCE — 3 stars…‘Cause my Subway is your Subway and your Subway is my Subway… It would take an eternity to break us… and the chains of Quiznos couldn’t hold us SERVICE — 4 stars… them saran-wrapped hands are fast! TOTAL — 3 stars… this is MY Subway!
