Boardwalk subs is quickly becoming one of my favorite lunch spots. The subs are scrumptious and can be built a-la-cart. I have yet to try a soup still. Service is top tier. Everyone is very attentive and friendly. Even dying lunch rush hour, the food came out quick and the staff kept a great attitude. Take advantage of their daily deals/promotions. Also, They have have just finished remodeling this location! read more

Stopped on for the first time for lunch today around 3:00 in the afternoon. There were two patrons in front of me, which I was glad about, so I could look over the vast board and extensive menu. There are so many delicious choices! Decisions, decisions, decisions... hmmmm. I ordered the #4 Italian, and it did not disappoint! Layered with meats and cheese with toppings of your choice, then comes the dressings. Oh my! This sub, I'm telling you, was so big and yummy. I will be eating it for three meals, no kidding. The service was impeccable! The young man making my sandwich was a new employee, and his trainer was patient, kind, and helpful. The restaurant's atmosphere is fun and laid back, with clean seating out front. There is ample parking right out front. If you are hungry and looking to fill that growling in your tummy with yummy, THIS is the place for you! read more

Apple Maps says it's open till 9. They close at 630. Completely ruined my day as I had been craving it all day. Some of us have to work until 630. read more

GO ROUGE!!! One of the best subs I have had. Service was great. Cut the meat n cheese when you order. Highly recommend this place

The customer service was great, the staff very helpful in building you the perfect sub. They hand slice the meats and cheeses right in front of you. Highly highly recommend to "go rogue" with your sandwich. It is pretty close to one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. Will be back this summer as much as I can! read more

I got my sandwich animal style. Which is not what they actually call it. But it's the same vibe. An off the menu tweak that involved a sandwich press. You get a lot of food for your money and it's a sandwich, so you pretty much know what to expect when it comes to taste. I would have been happy with a little more meat and cheese for a place modeling itself after East Coast sandwich shops. But I'm sure they have some upgrade option for that and I just missed it. read more

Fabulous sub! Employees had fun personalities. They seemed to know everyone that walked through the door.

The best sub I have ever had in my life. People who served the food were also cool. As the kids would say this place is a W in the chat.

I'd like to give a 4.5 only because the eating area was kind of dirty. The tables needed to be wiped off. Can't really blame the staff as there was only one person there and she was busy with customer after customer. So onto the important part, the food. We both got the number 18. Ham, roast beef, turkey, and cheese. The meats and cheeses are not pre prepared. They are cut at the time the sub is made and our sub maker was really quick at cutting. I then added lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, black olives, mayo, salt, and pepper. I got wheat and my wife got white. Bread soft and meat was good. Decent price considering the subs are 15 inches. Server was very friendly and very helpful. We ate in. She served each sub on a tray and told us to bring up what we didn't eat and she would wrap it to go. If I'm hungry for a sub and on that side of town again, that's were we will go. Went there for lunch today and the subs were still as good as the last time we were here. Eating area was clean this time as they had 2 people behind the counter today. read more

Is it better than other sandwich shops around? Yeah, probably. The sandwiches are really good. But the employees are what makes this place great in my opinion. They seem to truly care and want you to have a good experience. read more

Customer service at this store is a 10/10. Extremely welcoming and helpful! Food was the best sub I've had in GR for sure. Definitely go rogue! Store was clean in the eating area. Will be back again! read more

It was my first time in the store, (the sore smelled wonderful) so I was asking the person who was making sandwiches a few questions. He was thoughtful and gave real good advice. I got the pizza sandwich with the Rogue toasting with fresh tomatoes and onions. VERY good! I will happily eat there again. read more

I went here on the suggestion of a co-worker of mine after work. The restaurant was clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. They asked me questions about what I like on a sandwich and explained their choices and toppings clearly and concisely. All the meats and chesses are sliced after you order. I went with the number 8 which has ham, capicola, salami, prostini, pepperoni, & cheese. The bread was very soft and had excellent flavor. The meats, cheeses and toppings blending nicely together. All in all a very wonderful sandwich with great employees. My only knock is the combo price seemed a bit high to me. I will be back, but I'll probably get take out.... read more

They're alright, tasted like a gas station cooler sub. If it's the best sub in Grand rapids as it claims, I feel bad for Grand rapids cuz Jersey Giants beat the hell out of this place. read more

Amazinggggg!! Also with EVERY sub, do yourself a favor and always "Go Rogue." Your mouth will thank you.

Very disappointed with Board Walk. The previous three times I can here they were out of meatballs which is what go there for. Went in and walked out on my most recent visit. They are understaffed and cannot handle lunch time traffic. It's very disappointing because they do have good food. read more

super good service from josh, 10/10 sub grilled to perfection. def recommend. doesnt get much better

Super fresh, great quality meats fresh sliced with numerous unique sauce flavors to choose from. Super friendly staff and delicious cookies. Very reasonably priced for the quality read more

Though the sub was good, and the young woman who waited on me was wearing a mask and very polite, the other two workers were not. Other customers were not wearing masks and it is close quarters in there. Won't be back. read more

If you're really hungry for a sandwich, this is the place to go. They have a wide choice of hot & cold sandwiches, either half or whole (regular). The whole is definitely large & enough for two. They'll cut it for you into 4ths or even 6. They slice the meat fresh after you order, so you know it'll be good. They even have pulled pork, which my wife got & really liked. It's located at the intersection of 29th & Broadmoor, so you have to plan ahead on getting in & out. But it's well worth it. read more

For sure the best sub I have ever eaten!!!! Love boardwalk subs. The chicken teriyaki is my #1 and why switch to something else? They have so many great options. Make sure to get the sub "rogue"! You will not regret read more

The service was terrible! The lady, while making our subs said, "I feel like crap" & her face was flushed. This is not something you want to hear when when someone is making your food especially during a time when Covid is on everyone's mind. When I asked her if she was sick, she said her back was sore. She was then very vocal about how much pain she was in. The other worker told her she could take a break but she didn't. She mumbled under her breath whenever talking to us. We will never go there again. read more

Gave us wrong order with online ordering, very good customer service and remedied the situation quickly.

Boardwalk subs are great!!! For my first time having it I had the chicken bacon ranch and it was soooooo good! I got it rouge style and it made the sandwich 10X better! Also great customer service! I came in and was welcomed and greeted like a regular customer and the co workers were great they made the experience great I will be going back very soon read more

I had been to the Standale location, but this was my first time at this one. Reyna and Savannah demonstrated great customer service skills and were very helpful in making recommendations. I got a tuna sub, and I loved that it wasn't heavy on the mayo. You could also tell it was fresh (unlike some other sub shops). I sampled a few sauces and I think I got a sweet onion and honey mustard bbq sauce on the side. The sweet onion had bits of chopped onions in it - I'm a huge fan. Another thing I was impressed by was how surprisingly good the bread was. It was a good sized sub; I still had some left over for later. I'm happy with my experience and will definitely be back to try another sub. (Savannah recommended the #8.) read more

Here's my take. They skimp a little on the meats and cheeses compared to other places but are generous with the toppings. The issue I have is the person that made my sub cut it into a bunch of uneven pieces and then smashed the hell out of it trying to roll it up in the paper. It tastes good but its a big, smushed mess. read more

Boardwalk Subs is by far the best sub shop in Grand Rapids. The prostitini is absolutely delicious. Try the #11, turkey, prostitini and cheese, with onion, tomato and the honey mustard BBQ sauce - which, by the way, is the best sub sauce I've ever tasted. The prices here are almost laughably cheap considering how amazing the food is. You will not be disappointed no matter what you try! read more

Awesome subs and friendly employees! Can get pretty backed up at lunch time, but if you time it right you'll be ok.

I love getting subs from boardwalk because all the ingredients taste fresh. However I went there for lunch and decided to try the tuna, went to bite into it and it was completely frozen. Was no impressed. I'll still go there but never getting the tuna again. read more

Skip Subway!!!! Boardwalk subs is probably the freshest sub ive had in a LONG time. The cut the meat and cheese in front of you and have the freshest veggies! They also have a Lettwich option as well! Its romaine lettuce wrapped around the meat and cheese instead of bread! A great option for anyone option free. read more

Fresh sliced meat and cheese. Definitely only need a half sandwich. Whole is massive. Had a number eight combo with Great Lakes chips. Great support for local chip company. Food was great. Would definitely come back. read more

Visiting w family here. We were assured that the subs were above average. And they are. The girls who prepared our subs were very cool toward all of us. As if we were a bother. No smiles, no conversation, just did their job, no thanks, no come again. This is our first and last visit to your place. Our Michigan family loves your food but also were with us as we waited for our order. They are loyal to boardwalk subs but also were put out by the staffs cold service. You'll be hearing from them. read more

Just dined here last night for the first time after realizing that my favorite sandwich shop in town, hog Island subs, is closed. Quite disappointing. Tried this boardwalk and a couple of thoughts: it's in an out-of-the-way strip mall location but somewhat close to a major intersection so might get some business that way. Layout inside the restaurant is odd with the actual sandwich counter down a hallway in back and the dining space in front. Nothing wrong with it just a little odd. Sandwiches seemed large I got the number 17 with standard sub fixings and the garlic mayo. Unfortunately overall I'd say it just didn't seem very flavorful. Maybe lower quality meats?it was OK but I certainly won't be rushing back for another try. Acceptable but not great. read more

I tried this place based on an award ad at a local movie theatre. The food and service could not have been more disasterous. First they were taking orders by numbers on the board (vs sandwich names). I verified my choice twice and once while the sandwich was being made. When it came to add condiments, it was clear the wrong one was made (wrong meats). So they simply scraped off the incorrect portion and added nothing more. Then, the condiments put on were minimal amounts (as in not enough to to cover entire sandwich as a topping). When I sat to eat the sandwich I had to clean off a table. There was a staff member who appeared to be in charge of this but was busy talking to another associate. This sandwich was cut into six pieces, or so I thought. When I went to pull off the first section, the entire bottom piece of the sun came with, leaving behind the rest of the "fillings" on the tray. The aforementioned buzzer saw this happen and simply disappeared after witnessing the end result and my dismay, never to return for the following 15 minutes I was there. The bread was overly dry, like it was a day (maybe two days) old. In fact I felt like I was caught in an 80s commercial for burgers as my first bite revealed there was barely enough meat on the sandwich to call it so. I slid the remains into a carry bag hoping to have the rest for me dinner that day. Only by that time the bread had become leather like tough and uneatable. Hence my review, my never returning, and probably the only critical review this place will receive. read more

Forever the best subs! Great staff, fresh meat and veggies, reasonably priced. Staff is always friendly and gives you samples of some of the more unique meats. Highly recommend! read more

I eat here probably once a week and the food is excellent. Service is friendly and the price is fair. Love the #8 on wheat.

So I get there around 11:45 and there are 2 people ahead of me trying to order there subs and the 2 workers had Nooo idea what they were doing and in the middle of all this one takes a call and disappeared witch really upset the customer s haha... So I order a meatball sub and the guy asked me what I want on it 4 different times and I keep saying just how it comes bud,hahaha and they had no idea.... So I get back to the office to eat and the sub and the bread is doughy and the meat,cheese,and, sauce are Ice Cold!!! On top of all that the place is DIRTY. The worst 12 dollars I have ever spent! read more

Ate here for the first time this past weekend, and was pleasantly surprised! The staff is super friendly, and had great suggestions for me as a boardwalk "newbie." The subs were really filling. This was just what I was looking for. I'll certainly return for another weekend lunch stop read more
