Worst pizzas I've ever seen made by a restaurant! Stay away from this place at all cost. Pizza crust was either premade or the flour didn't rise. The crust was very hard and the top of the pizza was orange from all the grease it had on it. Some of the slices didn't even have cheese or pepperoni on them. Got home and noticed this. I called back and the shift supervisor told me I would need to drive 20 minutes back to get another 2 pizzas made. Instead of offering to make them again when I'm back that way or a refund, she wanted me to turn back around and drive another 20 minutes back with the original pizzas for their mistake. I offered to send her pictures and she declined. She said the flour probably didn't rise on the pizza and that's why it was hard. If so, why still serve it if it's visible that it's not going to be good? What's the excuse for the rest of the pizza? As much as they cost, you're better off going to a pizza joint to get a better tasting one. Another thing to add, they have at least 10 employees working in a cramped up kitchen constantly talking so be prepared to eat spit from them talking over your food while being made. As many years as I've been going there before it was bubbas subs, I definitely will not be going back. Ever since the original owners stepped down, this place pretty much kicked the bucket. You know the food isn't great when they had a sign at one point on the counter saying to check your food before you leave to make sure it's right. I'll spend my hard earned money elsewhere that takes pride in the food they make! read more

Very rude service from the kitchen staff. Audible at the front counter. Only two of my three family members were served at the same time. The third ordered hers to go. Actually, she still doesn't have hers. 20 minutes read more

If you are getting a take out order, Inspect it before you leave!! For the third time Bubbas has left me down with a take out order!!! I spent 55$ on 4 subs and was severely let down again. When will I learn? Well now is the time. The first time it happened, I let them know when we went back to eat in-house. The second take out order we were with a bunch of friends at the pool so I just sucked it up to lazy workers at Bubbas. However the next time I ordered take out, at the pick up window I opened my sandwich to inspect the order. I explained to the lady at the window what I was doing and she looked rather sheepish. It was as ordered so 3 orders with 1 correct have them a 33% chance of quality. This time I'm posting a review because they don't seem to get in person feedback. The four sandwiches I ordered were barely passing, one was such a let down that I will not go back until they get their selves straighten out. Unless I inspect at the window again. I'm thinking with a large order they count on the customer not inspecting but next time I do t care if it causes a scene! The paperwork was clear, Turkey, cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato and mayo. read more

Cool local place with decent food and cheap prices. Staff was friendly and service was good.

The pizza is absolutely delicious! Highly recommend this place! It's a fun family friendly atmosphere!

Bubba's is a staple to Sanford. Food is amazing, service is amazing. Due to its popularity sometimes, they get busy but they're always respectful and apologetic for any wait. Nobody is perfect but their staff works hard. They have an amazing atmosphere and strive to bring a smile on their customers faces! If you have never ate there you're missing out. We I'm sure you will run into someone you know! read more

I have been eating at this place for over 30 years and it has really gone down hill in the past year or two. Tables are dirty, windows are filthy, things you need have run out because everyone is too busy standing around and talking, I ask for my pizza slice to be put back in the oven because I like it crispy and they give me a cold piece of pizza instead. WTF people can u not look at the order and see that it says crispy! The people working there act like the customer is bothering them to have to do something. I used to love going to Bubba's but not any more. Just like everything else in Sanford it has gone to SHIT. Sanford has become the arm pit of NC it stinks and it's nasty. read more

Stopped by this place because the giant sub painted on the side of the building and the award sign displayed outside. We ordered food to go and it was very quick. My kiddo tried the meatball sub. Jeff's fav was also pretty good. The grilled cheese special was buttery and cheesy as it should be. It went great with the pickle I stole from my daughter's sub meal. She hates them...I love a nice garlicky pickle!! Anyways...The cheese fries are delicious, they are seasoned waffle fries covered in a cheesy sauce. The employees I dealt with were very nice. I am trying the pizzas next time I am in town. I left gawking at several tables who had ordered pizza...definitely drool worthy. read more

I love a good cheesesteak and was excited to try this place because my husband works in the area and said it was good! The bread was really good and fresh but thats all I could taste. The actual steak and cheese was sooo bland. He got the steak salad and it didn't look good at all. 2 stars for the bread and great customer service. Everyone was friendly! Plenty of parking available as well. read more

I recently visited Bubba's Subs & Pizza after watching a review on YouTube. I had no idea of their back story until viewing this video. If you went to NC State in the 90s and enjoyed subs at a certain sub shop in DH Hill or Talley Student Center, do yourself a favor and make the trip to Sanford. On my recent visit I enjoyed a grilled chicken sub, which was my favorite order at Talley, and was immediately transported back to my NC State days. The flavor of everything was the same. They have an extensive menu with a lot of options including hot / cold subs, pizzas, salads, etc. Our food was served quickly and the folks were very friendly. Please give them a try and support your local restaurants! read more

I am from Philadelphia, I know great pizza, this pizza is really, really good! We played Tobacco Road golf course and were really hungry when we visited this place. We weren't expecting anything great but were pleasantly surprised how delicious the pizza was here. The dough was super thin and the crust was fluffy and crispy, the cheese was great and the sauce was really impressive. We all agreed the pizza was much more then expected. Also had some sandwiches that were pretty good , super fresh rolls and I had some type of an Italian hoagie. It was decent, cheap meats and not really anything like I am accustomed but I would get it again. One of my friends had a cheesesteak and actually said it was pretty good , I didn't even see it due to it being devoured so quickly! The place was very clean and I had a chance to talk to the owner, it was March 18th and all restaurants were ordered to take out only due to the Coronavirus.... I think the owner was slightly in shock but I could tell this place is a very successful local place and they will survive and thrive in the future. I definitely recommend this place as it is family owned and operated and I'll bet everything on the menu is great! I'll be back next time I play Tobacco Road! read more

Other than the hours. The food doesn't disappoint me. Typically get the cheesesteak and it's fresh and good customer service.

Good food at a reasonable price I enjoy getting their Philly cheesesteak. Their staff are a little slow and sometimes rude but they are young people. Other than that the food is great. read more

Long time favorite! Amazing people & Food! You come for a good meal & leave feeling like you've eaten w/ family & friends. Highly recommend!!! read more

I decided to try Bubba's today and I must say the food is amazing. I order a 4" Polish sausage, an 8" Philly cheese steak, with cheese fries and fried green beans. All of it was great and so was the service. If you have not eaten here you need to try it. They have lots of drink selections I asked if I could make an Arnold Palmer and they said yes it was great too. They ranch for the fries is one of the best I have ever had. read more

This place is great! The food is delicious but the customer service brings us back! Loretta and Jeff are so sweet and make you truly feel like family! They go the extra mile!

I had the grilled (heated) roast beef sandwich with Bacon. It was very good... although I'm not sure what was grilled. The cheese was melted but everything else was cold... I was expecting the bread to be grilled a few seconds too. Or something. It could have been amazing. One complaint is they are a little skimpy on meat. I got the 8in and it was cut in two. Both of my last two man sized bites (that means 4) was sans meat... just bread and some lettuce. read more

Not as good as it use to be. I ordered online with specific instructions on how I wanted my two sandwiches. I got confirmation that it would be ready at a certain time and it wasn't so we had to wait. Got home ready to dig in and the sandwich was not made the way I ordered. My friends sandwich wasn't made correctly either. We were both starving so we ate them but it was not as good as I remember their sandwiches. Disappointed and I most likely won't go back. read more

Great sandwiches, bread toasted just right. 8" is more like 12". The 4" combo special would be plenary. Sweet potato fries are great! read more

I love love love bubbas! One of the best places to get a sub or a salad! I love the workers there. As soon as they see us come in they know what we want and know us all by name. It's like we are family in there!!!! read more

Love their pizza! Big sliced style. Might be a tad on the expensive but I am slowly turning this in to a Friday evening treat each week

Bubbas is hands down THE best sandwich shop in Sanford! The ranch they offer is worth every penny, the best I've ever had. Their waffle fries are as good if not better than chickfila fries! It is a must visit each time I'm in Sanford read more

Seems like a nice family owned non-chain business. Family and I ordered the Bubba Special pizza; pepperoni, ham, sausage, mushroom, onion, green peppers. It was a good pie. Order was ready on time as promised for pick up ( no delivery service?) and was a very good value. Pizza crust, for me one of the most important components, was ok but lacked that special "toothiness" which I prefer....that chewy but not tough quality. Place has an extensive offering of various sub sandwiches, maybe that's the way to go next time. I'll be back in the future. read more

Simply put: I live this place. It's one of my "go to" places to eat here in Sanford. The food is really good and very well priced. The staff is super friendly and truly remembers their regular customers. This is not some franchise: these are local people running a great business for... local people. They offer a wide variety of traditional Americana fare: subs to salads, pizza to Pepsi, fried food and fresh. Personally I love the atmosphere. It's got the feel of a well-used, established eatery. You feel comfortable dining by yourself or with friends. There's ESPN on TV, and upbeat music on the radio. There is also a patio with outside tables, should the temperature be amenable to that. In a world of bland, cookie cutter restaurants, Bubba's is a unique place that's worth your time and money. read more

I'll be honest, there aren't a lot of great places to eat in Sanford. This place is probably one of my favorites. I've been there a few times for lunch and it is always busy. I have had the philly cheese steak, and it's been real good. They have different kinds of fries, and different kinds of sandwiches. Nice menu. I'd go again =) Also, teachers get 10% off. read more

Grungy, dirty, bad service and food. No. They managed to ruin a meatball grinder, which previously, I'd thought impossible. There weren't enough meatballs involved, not enough sauce, and they burned the bread to boot. My companion had cheese fries, which came with fake cheese sauce. We will not return. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. We ordered our meal, sat doe to enjoy it and were visited by 2 nasty cockroaches! I could not get out of there fast enough. When my husband told the cashiers we were leaving they shrugged and said ok. Seriously! Gross! read more

Good food and nice staff. Hope they'll be able to have some weekend hours some day soon.

My second time here and always a good meal. Their subs are delicious and with a generous portion of meat. I had the American sub and it was fresh and very tasty. I added the mozzarella sticks with marinara and they were very good. I'll be back next time I'm coming to Sanford. read more

I have always enjoyed having the opportunity to eat here or pickup something to bring home. When I am on business and in the area, I always go here for sandwiches which are very good and the people that own it are always interested on what you think. Would highly recommend. read more

For some reason we have lived in Sanford for 6 years and have never eaten at Bubba's. Well, my husband finally tried it with a friend and instantly became a fan. We called in an order, both of us getting Jeff's favorite with pretty much everything on it and it was delicious! The bread is probably the best part. It is so fresh and soft, with a crispy exterior. The ingredients are of high quality and the veggies taste fresh. We also got criss-cut fries with cheese sauce, which were good too. On a second visit I got the chesse steak sandwich and wasn't too impressed. It was very average. I'll stick to Jeff's favorite next time I go. read more

As a local business owner I love great customer service and the entire staff was on point! The atmosphere is happy, upbeat and busy, which can be difficult to keep all those positives under pressure. I chose the Bubba's Special: imported ham, cooked salami, Genoa salami, roast beef, cappacolla and smoke provolone cheese.....let's just say Gooooooodness gracious that was good!!! From walking in, being greeted kindly, excellent fast service to the delicious food, I'm definitely impressed and will be back!! 5 stars all the way! read more
