Subway

Yeah, this is the worst Subway I’ve been to in a while. The two young guys working there speak in whispers, overcharge you, and really skimp on the FREE toppings. If you’re looking to get the $ 5 for two sandwiches deal after 5pm or whatever, make sure the guys at the register charge you correctly.

Never tastes all that great… but it is a fast, cheap, and somewhat healthy option. Customer service isn’t the best either… but typical of fast food restaurants.

I live right down the street in between this subway and the one on Southport and WHOA! The servce here is so much better than the other subways by far! Super friendly staff! I tie my dog up outside and they go out of their way to come give her a cookie! Makes a huge difference when I walk in the door and everyone is in a good mood!

I just can’t give any Subway more than 3-​stars, but if I do, this might just be the first. I like that this was the FIRST, and so far ONLY, Subway whose air doesn’t smell like burnt bread the moment you walk in the door. Seriously, other Subway locations: ventilation, please. This location seems to do everything right – friendly employees, quick service. And – WHOA; is that a real granite countertop along the front windows? I’m impressed. I’ll go back again someday, and if my experience is the same, I’ll up the stars!

I love all Subways and I do love me some late night Subway, but the person who works late night on the weekends speaks no english and he makes the sandwiches the way he wants them. I told him five times that I didn’t want my sandwich toasted, but he went ahead and toasted it, telling me that I wouldn’t be disappointed. After saying no five times I told him fine and it was disgusting! Also be careful he will put a mountain of mayo on if you’re not careful. I’ve never felt so sick from Subway as I did the other night!

I eat at this Subway pretty much like every 5^th day. As you might guess, I’m frickin’ lazy as shit and often opt for a $ 5 footlong over attempting to cook something that will probably end up in the trash anyway. This isn’t to say that I can’t cook — I can and sometimes am even inspired to do so — but when it’s just me, it’s been a long and horrific day, and Subway is less than a block away… come on!
It’s not the best Subway I’ve ever been to, but it’s definitely not the worst. It’s disappointing that they’ve jacked up their bottled soda prices to pick up the slack on their lower sandwich prices, but since neither a footlong sandwich nor a Diet Coke are exactly ‘health food’ (no matter what Jared says), who am I to complain?
The staff has always been nice to me, and I’ve never waited more than a few minutes to get my food. Also never had any undue intestinal distress following my meal (I say ‘undue’ because it’s a complete impossibility for me to stop eating after the half-​way point, and I’m always bursting at the seams afterward… you know what I’m talking about).

If you’re looking to «eat fresh», stay away from this Subway location. The worst Subway I have ever graced. One of the girls making my sandwich actually wiped the sweat off her forehead with the back of her arm while making it. Me and my roommate had stomach problems for days after visiting it. I’m actually a huge fan of Subway and was excited when I saw how close it was to my apartment but I wouldn’t wish this Subway on my worst enemy.
If youre really dying for a good sandwich walk a little further down Clark to Diversey and hit up the Panera there. You won’t have the runs for a week.

This was my other home-​base Subway from back in my and my girl Amanda’s Lakeview era. Friendly staff, attentive, quick to get you through the line but at the same time helpful and generous with the fixin’s. Also a very clean store. I hesitate to award yet another 5 stars, but I really can’t remember a single flaw.
Oh, and last December while I was in the area picking up nail polish stocking stuffers for Amanda at neighborhing Ulta, I may have stolen a bag of chips after ordering the combo (a rarity for me) and originally selecting apples as my side. Hey, I was broke, hungry, and spending all my disposable cash on Christmas presents. Plus I was sitting right next to the chip rack. They were positively calling my name, I tell you. And I’ve spent enough money in hundreds of Subways over the last decade-​plus; a freebie bag o’ chips was totally warranted.
So, thank you, Lakeview Subway, for nourishing me during the rough, cold Christmas season. You’re like a warm, frugal lover.
