Penny Hill Subs

What can I say about this place?
Fresh made bread that isn’t heavy and doesn’t hide the good stuff in the sub.
Quick as any sub place around.
Friendly, hometown service.
Only drawback — tough to get in and out of during a busy weekday lunch, but that doesn’t stop me. Best if you are going south on Old Dixie from 12^th street because it’s hard to make a left there going north. When you find a great place to eat, very little stops you from going there.
We have gone several times. They have been in busy for years and still my favorite sub shop.
We will definitely be back again and again!

Hmm. What can I say about Penny Hill Subs! A notch or two below Subway seems appropriate and definitely no competition for Publix subs.
I’ve been to the Penny Hill on Miracle Mile a couple times years ago. Nothing to write home about on those occasions but it was a quick grab and I was hungry.
I went to this Penny Hill on Old Dixie today and got a ½ turkey sub w/​cheese combo. I attempted to request yellow American cheese but the attendant said she only had white American… but before she would accept the type of cheese I wanted, she demanded that I tell her if I wanted mayo and mustard. Whatever!
And why did it take 3 employees to make me a sub? The chocolate chip cookies were burnt and the food cost too much. They have whole wheat but not multigrain.
Skip this place and get a sub at Publix half a mile down the road. Better yet, get a salad to go at Publix. It’s more healthful.

I love the subs at Penny Hill. The California sub is my favorite! The meat is fresh and so is the bread. Actually the bread is fantastic. They will also heat your sub to perfection. I absolutely love their cherry peppers on my subs too.

The freshest and best subs anywhere. The service is fast and very friendly. Try it you’ll like it

Wow, a real gap from 5 stars to 1 star but we obviously had very different experiences here.
Hubby and I have passed this place many times while running errands and had set it aside for a future try. Well, yesterday we tried. The real draw here for us was the sign in the window touting «we make our bread» and it was offered in wheat. On our way to the movies, we stopped in to split a sub. Did not realize that this was not a dine in place but there was a table there for people waiting so we decided to use that. Ordered an Italian sub on wheat. All of the issues with this place are so overwhelming I think it would be easier to just make a list:
1. first indication of a bad sandwich was when the employee grabbed the roll… thin, and floppy and just sad looking.
2. the employee who made our sandwich was wearing gloves as she made our sandwich… as she answered the phone while making our sandwich… as she used the cash register after making our sandwich. I think she does not understand the concept of the gloves. :(
3. the sub, once made, was really not good at all. It had boiled ham on it (yes, the cheapest stuff available) in just a layered lump and we could not even identify any of the meats that make an Italian sub an Italian sub… salami, cappicola, etc. I tasted boiled ham, little bit of lettuce, and thin, not very good bread.
4. it really boggles my mind why, this not being a dine in place, anyone would go here for a sub when for the same price you can go to Publix for a vastly superior sub??? Yes, I said it… a grocery store sub outshines this place that is called a sub shop.
Ok, granted I am from south jersey and it is very hard to find subs and hot sandwiches here that compare to up north with the delicious Philly cheese steaks etc. but this was just sad. I’m hoping that other sandwiches and hot subs are better there or maybe we just went on an off day or something else. What I fear is that maybe their customers have never had a good sub and Penny Hills has convinced them that they make a good sub. So not. It pains me to say this as I am not a fan of Subway AT ALL but… even Subway makes a better sub then Penny Hills. :(
I’m all for giving a place another chance but truly, we will never go there again… still trying to get the experience out of my mind.

Great subs, Friendly staff, great prices.
