Coddingtown Valero & Subway

Horrible, horrible, horrible service. I went into the car wash, it wasn’t working right. It stopped before any soap was on my car. I pulled forward and waited to see what would happen when the car behind me went thru. Same thing. The driver said that it kept telling her to back up. We both went inside to tell the clerk what happened. He blamed us for it being broke. He asked the lady «what did you do?» She said «I didn’t do anything, your car wash is broke.» He said to her «well you broke it because our car wash has never had problems before you.» I told him, «It happened to me too.» He said to both of us, «well you both broke it.» He gave us a new code to use. We both went thru it again and it worked fine. I will never go back to this place again.

I don’t get gas here very often. My review is based on the Subway inside. It is the best Subway in town. I quit going to all of the others, and took a chance on this one. Amazing subs, and great service. The subs are always fresh, as they should be, and unlike most in town they actually put toppings on them.

I buy gas here. avoid the sandwich shop inside a gas station for obvious reasons.

the valero here is a bit pricey for the gas. they have a food shop which includes a subway. (the only reason to come here at all (.
depending on the time of the day, you can either get a breakfast combo (2) 3 foot sub (3) or the sub of the month (6) or order off the regular menu. service is quick and friendly.
and there’s plenty of parking nearby…

The staff for both businesses are always so friendly here. Being a part of their rewards program is definitely worth it, free stuff all the time! Anyway, I decided to write this review because the Subway inside this Valero is fantastic!
I have been there about six or seven times now (they are conveniently located on my way home) and every time has been wonderful. The bread is always great, the ingredients they use are so fresh and flavorful, and the portions aren’t depressing either. I’m actually full after eating my sandwich and that is what I’m looking for in a meal. I was very reluctant to order from a Subway inside a gas station, but after having horrible experiences at ALL the other locations, I had to settle on this Coddingtown location one day and have not regretted it. They have been consistently delightful every time, no matter what time of day, open 24 hours btw :)

I always eat Subway when we travel and I have eaten in all the ones in Santa Rosa. I love this Subway. I like lots of vegetables and they gladly pile them on for me. The bread is fresh. The service is fast.

As a gas station, it’s overpriced.
The Subway inside, however, is the best one I know. The staff is always friendly (even though their conversational English is hit and miss) and the subs are made right, as right as Subway can get.

FAIL!
it’s an over priced gas station. Enough said.

I should start a list of all the crazy places I tend to eat that either involve being associated with hardware stores or gas stations. cause it seems to happen more often then I really care to admit.
I only eat the veggie sandwhichs & the meatball subs there, as 99% of their lunchmeat gives me the willys to look at. Subway has been a staple of my diet for damn near 20 years (scary I know) and at one point in my teen years, I could have worked in one, since I seemed to know everything that went into making the perfect sub.
So wierd expertise aside, this is prolly my favorite Subway in recent years. Why? They just make a really good sub. The bread is always soft, and fresh, and most of the people working there use the proper V cut technique for the bread (yes really there is a ‘proper’ way to cut a sub) and the veggies are always crisp and fresh.
Plus the counter staff doesn’t tend to be a bunch of morons which makes my life as customer much easier. I’ve even tried to throw them a time or two by asking them to add the oil and vinegar to the lettuce before moving on to the other toppings — and they never miss a beat.
Certainly a (non) guilty pleasure of mine — and its affordable and tasty.
