Since the Hoagy sandwich spot in Fremont has closed guess this is as close as I can get to a good Hoagy now! Came here with a friend since she was ranting about this place and how they've been there for years and this is a mom and pop owed shop. I ended up getting the Jalapeno Hoagy combo which came with a steak fries. I think I was expecting a super loaded hoagy with cheese and jalapenos but it was decent size but nothing that stood out to me. It was a nice bite to eat while on the way back home but IDK if I would go out of my way to come here again. I may be stopping by with my friend again if she is craving it again Nonetheless, stop by and get your hoagy on if your in the area. The steak fries are delish with your hoagy! I forgot to mention the owners are super sweet here as well! read more

Bob's Hoagy Steaks - Jalapeno hoagy - Sandwiches Near Me - Hayward, California

This place has great cheese steaks! Better than Cheese Steak shop IMO, more authentically Philly style too. Service was terrific, a family-owned joint. Wish it was closer to my house read more

So Bob's Hoagy's used to have 2 locations. This one, and a bigger one in Fremont. I don't know how long this one has been around, but I do know the one in Fremont, had been around since the 90's possibly even before that. It was a dive, but it was an institution and beloved by many residents. It also had to close due to the whole property being sold, and is now probably going to get redeveloped into high rise modern apartments. They didn't relocate, so now there is just one. Came in here for lunch with a friend after a round of golf. We both were regulars at the Fremont location, and with me finding this one, I suggested we try it to see if the food was the same. Maybe different family members are running this one, but the food IS practically the same. Cheesesteaks are the focus with Fish n' Chips being the other popular item. The only difference is this place is maybe a 1/3 the size so a lot less seats. And the Fremont one had a huge 'hot sauce' station, where you could actually purchase the bottles, if you found one that you fancied. Don't know if it's a covid thing, but condiments in general were actually hard to spot at this location, I had to do some digging. They are not just laid out on the tables like they used to be. I usually order a Regular Cheesesteak but I always include grilled onions, mushrooms and bell peppers. Sometimes I'll request jalapenos too. There are many permutations on this sandwich here, so just tailor it yourself. It comes with thick cut steak fries which I love to douse with malt vinegar and salt. A regular sandwich and a drink will approach the $15 mark and always hits the spot. The Bread: Nice soft hoagy roll with a slight toast that doesn't get soggy or mushy. They spread a thin layer of mayo on, which I don't recall from the other location, but I could be wrong. It doesn't really need it, so I may omit it for the next out. The Fillings: The beef is totally natural tasting, just super thin sliced steak that gets a good browning on a flat top and gets furthered chopped up with a metal spatula as it's cooking...ting ting ting. Music to my ears. I like the combo of the 3 veggies as they all lend themselves to create a cohesive union. The onions add sweetness, the mushrooms more meatiness and earthiness, the peppers a nice vegetative bite. The Cheese: The other place had a few choices, don't know if this one does. But this is one of only a couple of instances where I will actually nod my head yes to American Cheese. An In & Out Burger is the other. This cheese gets so melted on this classic sandwich that it not only seasons it but ties everything together like a satin bow. The thing with these Bob's Hoagy Cheesesteaks is that they don't boast anything about Philly or the city that claims this sandwich. And honestly this is better than any place that does boast such connections and claims. My loyalty lies in taste and satisfaction, not so much in geographic appropriations. To that this Bob's will now find another displaced cheesesteak refugee from Fremont. There will be many more. My friend who I brought was pleasantly surprised too. We both sent pics to our family and friends that this was indeed a legit replacement. Such a score! read more

nice customer service the cheesesteak is really good the bread they use is good and the fries are fire

Steak Sandwich was great! Fries are questionable. I think they changed from steak fries to these...and not very good at all. Perhaps a batch that sat? Otherwise sandwich was cooked perfectly and staff was quick and kind. read more

Bob's Hoagy Steaks - I opened the wrapper the wrong way‍ - Sandwiches Near Me - Hayward, California

The best Hoagy sandwich's around the Bay Area. Service was great very nice and polite.

Chicken teriyaki sandwich ($15) here is the closest I've been able to find for a Mission Burger (RIP) dupe. The chicken is perfectly grilled and tender, not dry as you might see at other places. My steak fries were underdone, but nothing ten minutes in the toaster over couldn't fix. Service is warm and welcoming. read more

Bob's hoagie steak is so consistent with their quality of sandwiches, been coming here for 10+ years it's a must try if you love hoagies. The owners work so hard and deserve the recognition. The parking can be a little challenging. I always get the Mexican Hoagie and my husband always gets the Mushroom Cheese steak. read more

Had a mushroom Philly Cheese added jalapeño and it was absolutely delicious, fresh, hot and quick. Located in a mini mall, stuck in the corner with cafe style seating. Would absolutely recommend! Enjoy! read more

Best hoagy steaks! Been coming here since a teenager. This place never disappoints. 5

I ordered the mushroom and bell pepper steak hoagie. The flavor was good but they didn't even chop up my steak. They laid long slices onto my bread, which made it super difficult to eat as the meat kept sliding out from the back and sides of the hoagie. read more

COVID-19 SIP Review: I have a friend that comes to eat this from across the bridge. So, figured it must be worth trying. Called ahead and the friendly worker let me know that they are available for takeout. Looking at the pictures online, the mushroom Hoagy steak looked like a good bet. Also, that's the one my friend from across the bay gets. Also didn't realize it came with fries, yum! Okay I was blown away. We've tried a handful of cheesesteak joints in the area but this is the ONE. most that we have eaten during this SIP have been DRY and kind of plain.. and those places give you like less than a mouthful of fries... the mushroom Hoagy was just SO juicy and the amount of cheese was perfect (NOT sparse so it was NOT dry)... and it was actually quite massive. I had to force myself to eat it Bc I wasn't sure if it would be good the next day reheated... also has a bunch of fries leftover.. def worth and def will return! read more

This place has such positive memories for me since I've been coming here with my dad and sisters for years! We always enjoy chatting with the staff if we sit at the counter. We get the mushroom steak with extra mushrooms. Love the fries! The customer service is excellent. The young man we usually see as our cashier is super friendly and always cheerful as he takes our order and rings us up! I'll for sure keep coming here to support their business. read more

Such a South Hayward staple.. been around forever. The team has been there forever and they are consistent and have great customer service! Definitely a hole in the wall, never changed place. But the cheesesteaks and sandwiches are great. Other rice plates questionable but not terrible. Bread was especially good on my recent visit, I get mushroom and bell pepper. Chips are fried just right. Always a pleasure. Support local. read more

I hope that's forever. read more

Been coming here since bobs hoagy steaks closed in Fremont. Always fresh and delicious.

Well it's been at least 3 years since I've been to Bobs shop to get a hoagie sandwich and I see why they have fell completely off as far as the food goes I give 0stars based on the fact that my sandwich was threw together no seasoning soggy tomato and meat half cooked the staff should be able to recognize long once upon a time customers being that they haven't changed anything but counter top so you can't see them throwing your sandwiches together waste of my $11.46 and definitely the cravings for a good hoagie from the homie I definitely won't think twice about Bobs shop again when it comes to a hoagie sandwich craving I'll just stick with what I know best the cheesesteak shop who never goes wrong with a hoagie no matter how long it's been. read more

Okay, so I'll admit it's been a moment since I've been here. (Not in the area too often anymore) With that said, every experience I've had here has been amazing.

People are super nice but cheesesteaks are really greasy, so if your body is your temple you probably won't like it. I was bummed the the cheesesteak place by me closed so this was the next closest place, therefore my backup. It wasn't bad tasting just too much fat soaking through bread. read more

Double meat no peppers extra Cheese bruh...add Shrooms it's a HIT with that pickle duh next door got the rest 7

Let me start off by saying that I grew up on the Bob's Hoagy Steaks in Fremont and was devastated when it closed its doors permanently. However, this Bob's Hoagy Steaks in Hayward is still around and thriving. At the Fremont location, I always ordered the "Cheese Steak" sandwich and, fortunately, the Hayward location has the same sandwich. At first I was a little worried that the "Cheese Steak" at the Hayward location wouldn't be as good, but luckily it tasted similar enough to the sandwich I grew up on that I couldn't really tell the difference, which is great! I like the sandwiches here because I grew up on them. However, I will admit that they're not your typical cheesesteak and may not be for everyone. Nonetheless, they make my favorite cheesesteak and I will take theirs over anyone else's. So the good news is that now that I know the sandwich here is just as good, this Bob's Hoagy Steaks will be my new spot. Now, I can't speak for other items on the menu since I have not had them, so I can't say the food here is just as good as the Fremont location. However, I will say that the fast service and reasonable portion sizes are the same. So although I will continue to be sad that the Fremont location no longer exists, I am grateful to still be able to get one of my favorite sandwiches from the Hayward location. read more

This small "mom and pop" is hidden and located in the corner of a small shopping center-- easy to miss, but the food is so yummy and comforting. You can tell it is made with fresh ingredients and everything from the meat, cheese, veggies were perfect in portion- nothing was overpowering. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. We ordered a Mexicana hoagy but salad style and it was done perfectly. It's a total gem in the area! read more

Awesome delicious hoagies! My partner and I love the food, the classic no-nonsense atmosphere, and the incredibly sweet family that owns the place :) great service too. read more
