The sandwich was lacking. It needed more of everything except the bread. A couple bits tasted like a Reuben and most lakes. Need more dressing, Swiss with some flavor - it needed everything. It comes with a bag of seed oil soaked chips. For the very best Reuben, make it at home!

The food was overall good. People were very happy with the salmon, haddock, chicken cordon bleu, and chicken Marsala. I had the prime rib, which was an adder and I thought it was ok but on the chewy side so I would try something different in the future. Guests kept saying how good their selections were. I would absolutely recommend hosting an event here.

We also got a side of pasta with red sauce which was just okay, nothing to write home about and the pasta was overcooked. I also recommend the lychee martini, really enjoyed that.

This place has spectacular food with even better service to go with it. The bread is always fresh and awesome, the rice bowls are very good with alot of wiggle room to really customize how you like it. They also have quesadillas and salads that are also great. Not sure what Mike S' problem is considering the only real feedback he gave on his experience was about the UTZ chips...which Great American doesn't make...The majority of his review seems to be just him mad about the name of the store and associates it with far right political ideologies simply cause the word "Great" is in front of the word "American" which definitely sent him into a triggered state resulting in what he probably thought was a good review. "Sorry Londonderry, I'm not impressed." I dont think Mike understands the difference between an actual food critic and Yelp reviewer, hopefully somebody helps him out with that someday. Did he try the bread? Why did he expect an "authentic" Asian style rice bowl? Did he really start his review off by complaining about UTZ Chips? I also noticed he tried to tell other brown skinned people not to go here in the end of his review, big yikes right there buddy. The place has been open for 20+ years and has been the go to sub shop ever since for good reason, because its the best! So suck it Mike S, take your review and blow it out your rear! read more

Great America Subs (GAS) is not only top notch food but the best Utz chips I've ever had, they must come straight from the warehouse into my mouth. Mike S. should be publicly tarred and feathered in Londonderry center for his review. Nowhere does GAS ever claim to have authentic rice bowls, they are just straight gas. I'm not sure what Mike S. Was referencing with the name and style of food served. Seems a bit racial to me but GAS has something for everyone in the land of the free. It sounds as though ole Mikey makes lamb and tuna fish every night with this type of review he left. -TP read more

I called to see if they delivered. The gentleman I spoke to explained to me that they didn't have a delivery driver until later on that day. I respectfully asked if he knew of any other delivery places around the area and explained that I wasn't from town and was working close by by couldn't leave the job site. The gentleman I was speaking to said he would help me out and deliver me some lunch. Very professional and went above and beyond. Thank you again! Highly recommend great American subs!

Getting on 93s from Londonderry we stopped in for bite to eat before heading to Boston- The steak and cheese sub that I had I will hands down crown as THE BEST STEAK AND CHEESE SUB I HAVE EVER HAD. A hidden gem! I did not expect this from a small town no name sub shop. The service was quick and the food was exceptional.... I'll even go as far to say, that i am a huge fan of the sports decor. They had the Celtics game on and the guy who made our food was really nice and even gave us free chips. I think his name was Ryan or Ricky. read more

I am a regular here and finally got around to writing a yelp review. I think I have tried over a dozen things on the menu and they are all fantastic. The subs/wraps always come out quick and fresh.

After stopping at the local (and not good) Newbury Comics location semi-close by in Manchester, we continued on our way until we stumbled across Papa Joe's Humble Kitchen and figured we would give this place a shot for lunch. The outside looked like a side of the road burger joint you would find in New England and the inside matched it perfectly. This isn't exclusively a burger place, but the menu does revolve around burgers and sandwiches and I just had to give the specialty a try, The Full of Bologna Burger! As someone who really likes burgers and also likes bologna, this was a no brainer and it was pretty dang good if I do say so myself. The bologna and the beef mixed pretty well together and the french fries I had on the side were pretty good as well. Overall, Papa Joe's Humble Kitchen is a fun roadside restaurant that's definitely worth trying if you are in the area. The staff here were friendly, the restaurant itself is small and charming, and the food is on the cheaper side, greasy, and tastes dang good. Will I be back? Probably not since I don't even know where Milford, NH is, but I sure would recommend this place to those looking for a solid lunch in Southern New Hampshrie!
