Took a friend here to shoot some pool and my first thought walking in the door was "I wish I could bottle up this smell and sell it". I don't know what it is about the savory, spicy and smokey smell that arises from a well seasoned kitchen but it always get my stomach juices bubbling, even when I wasn't previously hungry. The place was pretty empty during midday so we had the pool table to ourselves. It's a nicely maintained table that I imagine gets a lot of use on weekends. My choice of sandwich today was the Italian because I know most of those smells I was smelling had to do with the ingredients on this thing. It was very tasty and since they were out of fries, I got some onion rings instead, which were cooked perfectly. I wish onion rings were the standard side dish instead of fries but I digress. This shop, which can be positively hopping on weekends, was a nice laid back hang during the weekday. read more

Great pizza and subs great owner. Not just for college students. Lots of older folks go here like me!

I'm giving an updated review. For over 25 years you guys made the best sandwiches ever! As a mom of a UNR grad student. This evening after work I treated myself to a day before Mother's Day dinner. I went to order my usual 14A Sub whole on wheat bread. When I asked for wheat bread I was told that you don't sell wheat bread anymore. When I got home with my sub sandwich. There was only one slice of the meat, hardly any cheese, veggies & your signature mayo. For 20 years you guys would pile on everything thick that went on a 14A. When you pile it on thick, you have a signature sub full of flavor that makes people wanting to come back for more. Tonight was the saddest looking sub sandwich I had ever seen from Pub n Sub. I still love your business in my heart as it always reminds me of the pub Cheers. I love that your nestled in a college neighborhood with warm vibes to back the pack, The Wolf Pack! Plus I remember the owners back in the day always there to greet you with a smile and say Hi! read more

Not a great place for pizza or wings, service was great but not redeeming enough for the pizza. Must be why sub is in the name

This spot is a must visit in Reno! Been around forever, flavor of pizza is always on point! They have the best ranch, salads are nothing special but the pizza is perfect! We ordered the tree hugger! read more

Gotta love this Reno classic. I went with a #1 with spinach ..... soooo good. It hit the spot.

Good ol days, I have so many memories here! Dined here today 7/15/23 with friends for beer and for appetizers. Summer nights are my all time favorite and even better spending it with friends. Their menu has a variety of options from Pizza to sandwiches to burgers and wings. We opted in for a sandwich and wings. Variety of drinks on tap as well. This is an older pub but a gem, indoor and outdoor seating with my favorite backyard seating. I've been here for team building, football games, hang out spot. Everyone was friendly and prompt. Food is fast, fresh and delicious! We will be back soon! read more

Too often we forget that Pub N' Sub is just down the road from us. I called ahead and ordered the Tree Hugger - Garlic & olive oil base, sundried tomatoes, spinach, feta cheese, walnuts, red onion. I thought the walnuts were interesting, and was not disappointed when we got into our first slice. The dough had a good crispiness too it, if not the biggest rise. I was pretty surprised at the price, though. After tip that single pizza brought us nearly to $30. At nearly $5-6 more than others, you gotta ask if it's really worth the extra cost. I'm not totally sure if the quality warrants the extra price, but I think that's for each person to determine for themselves. We certainly can't get a pizza like the Tree Hugger anywhere else, so if we're craving that exact pizza, we know where to go! read more

Was not thrilled had the sausage sandwich its diced sausage that is put on pizza bland in taste,

We now interrupt this program to hear from our food analyst who is standing LIVE outside one of UNR's favorite eating spots - Pub n Sub. Take it away Samantha. Pub n Sub has good eats! Myself and my food analyst liked both sandwiches. The meatball was hot and tasty she said. We both liked the Italian cold sub sandwich as well. The place has good vibes. There is beer on tap, chicken wings and pizza as well. Both times here the staff is friendly. We will be back to try the wings and pizza next time. read more

This is the quintessential area "in-spot". Neighborhood families enjoy the great food and drink by day while the local college students have created a popular PLP, by night. I'm told this place has literally been an institution since 1974. That speaks volumes. I think I'd best described it as simplicity. Nothing fancy, just great wings, pizza and simple subs. Subs like the "po 'boy" or "hero" sandwiches we made with cold cuts in the kitchen, years ago. Some of the food items might seem a bit pricey, but there's value for the buck. The beer prices seem reasonable. The pub attracts a colorful caliber of people ultimately giving the place it's special character. We split a Hickory Smoked Turkey sub for about $10 and these fantastic Zucchini sticks for $8. From pool tables to outdoor tables in their beer garden Pub N' Sub is back-woods cozy in residential Reno. A comfortable venue to watch sports or just kick back and unwind. Be careful if you park by the entrance...it's a bottom scrapper. read more

Their sandwiches hit the spot after a long day of skiing! Simple is they key! Get the turkey sandwich with everything & you got yourself a solid sando. The dressing they add is delicious. I recommend adding pepperoncinis & swiss cheese :) It's also quite large so you can split it with someone or save the half for another time! I also tried the turkey & salami, which was okay, didn't really vibe with the salami taste. I think you're better off with just the turkey. Nice gals working the register and making the sandos! read more

Pub N' Sub - Roast Turkey , Salami & Cheese with Pepperoncinis (extra) - Pizza Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Pizza Good!!! Minus one star for the loud, lousy music. It really detracted from our dinner. They turned it down for a little while after we asked them to do so, but soon, another employee turned it back up. read more

Just once I wish they'd get my order right. College joint with a decent pool table and lackluster beer selection. $20 for a meatball sub and a draft beer is no bargain. Pizzas could use a sauce and cheese quality upgrade. Pluses: they're open late for Reno. Outside seating in good weather. Standard meat subs are good...but they'll never get your order right:-) read more

The food is good but the price I was charged is almost ten dollars more than they advertise online. Was not happy when I had to pay $30 for a single pizza with half a topping. The food is good but not $30 good. And it's supposed to be a college bar ain't no way college kids can afford that. Most likely not going back read more

Was here in November , and was recommended by a local, fried pickles are fire and delicious a must have , the onion rings were battered good and real tasty. And the pizzia was above average and ample toppings which I love , it has a college hangout type of vibe!!!many beers on tap and staff was superfriendly over all I would come here again great hidden gem in Reno , my only drawback would be I wouldn't bring my small child here , like I said more college kids come here which is perfectly fine!!!! read more

It's a neighborhood joint -- the kind of room and patio you want walking distance from your house. Two problems: the neighbors have a ton of dog shit in their yard, which is unappetizing when you walk by, and unsavory on a warm day. And sadly, this is probably some of the worst pizza in town. My teenager didn't bother finishing his cheese pizza. Left more than half of it in the box, and he's not that kind of pizza eater. But if you want a pitcher of beer and a game of pool and you don't live far, it's almost a great spot. read more

We came here about 5pm on Saturday the 5th of May in part to avoid the Cinco de Mayo crowds. But we have also wanted to try this place for a while. It is located in a residential area primarily consisting of houses that are rented to UNR students. There is street parking on two sides of the building which is located on the corner of Ralston and West 10th street. The building is a two story brick building that is both cute and charming. To the left of the front door there's an outdoor wooden patio with tables. The interior is rustic with wood covering most of the walls and flooring and it has simple picnic tables with red and white table cloths. There is a counter for ordering subs, a small bar offering draft and bottled beer and a small counter window for ordering and picking up pizzas. For us, this place reminds us of a combination of Rennie's landing on the U of O campus and JJ's pizza a little further south. We each decided to order a 10 inch pizza so that we could get what we wanted and have a little bit left over. You can build your own pizza or pick one of the options they have on the menu. The prices seem comparable to other non-chain pizza joints. Our pizzas arrived in a timely fashion and looked great. Everything was very tasty and we had to stop ourselves from eating the whole pie. We also noticed signs for a backyard area that we did not explore. Overall we enjoyed it very much and we will be back! read more

Pub n sub is the best local pub in Reno/Sparks! If you're looking for a great doughy, greasy pizza (in all the right ways), this is your spot. They have great sub sandwiches, and I ate their wings at least once a week when I was in college. It's a favorite of both college students and locals. The back patio is a great place to hangout and enjoy a beer in the summer. read more

I recognize that that Pub N' Sub is a college bar, so my expectations were not very high. But, the pizza was actually really good. You order at the bar and then they call your name to get your food. You then pick up yourself from the window, and take to your table. The outside seating area was really nice and great for a large group. However, a lot of stars were lost over the fact that the bathrooms are right by the kitchen and they smelled so terribly. The smell coming from the bathrooms made the whole hall smell like an unwashed toilet. That made the idea of eating the food pretty of gross. So, if they took care of that I'd be willing to give this place some stars back. read more

Ordered a pizza, as it was half price. It was greasier than we're used to, but still pretty tasty. I like that I can count on crispy pepperoni here. Consistently good. This place rocks. read more

Pub N' Sub - Pizza Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Came here with the boys for some lunch, the atmosphere was incredible, the wait for food was rather short. I got a Cheesesteak and lemme tell you, coming from Philly, I got some high expectations, this met most if not all of them, THEY EVEN USED CHEESE WIZ!!! And properly too! The Onions rings are seasoned, crunchy, and decently sized. The proportions are great for the price! Great food! read more

Great food. Nice service. Cozy atmosphere. Reasonable price. It's one of my favorites. It's been good consistently for years.

Racist Environment!!! I hate to say it but to be a Minority ..but when I came there even the customers outside stopped and stared at us while we waited for our food in the car. The guy went so far as taking his sunglasses off as they stared me and my Daughter down she felt very uncomfortable......I wanted to leave but we decided to stay to get our food After spending $50 I really pray they didn't spit in it. read more

Pub N' Sub - he front of the building - Pizza Near Me - Reno, Nevada

If you want good pizza and a fun place to hang with friends this is the place to be. Totally a college bar scene with pool tables and a expansive menu but the food is something not to miss I came here to meet a bunch of friends for food, beer and, to catch up. We were there during happy hour so the beer pitchers were cheaper which was nice. We decided to grab a spot outside in the back which is great because it was a nice sunny day and it wasn't noisy so you can hear when people are talking. The pizza took a little bit. Which was fine because they were busy and the pizza came out hot and fresh. The pizza itself was huge and the ingredients were good because they were fresh. It was hot and delicious the crust was chewy and airy which you want. Also it was nice and cheesy. It's a great place to hang out with friends and get some good food. They also have a pool table if you are so inclined. Overall just a fun place to be that is low key and chill. read more

After attending a Yelp event my husband and I ordered the chicken wings and fries. My husband really liked the chicken wings. They were a little too much tabasco flavored for me. I am not found of tabasco. There were a lot of wings and fries for a cheap price. The place was hopping. I have been here several times as it was a popular hang out when I went to UNR. Nice friendly place where there are usually lots of students from UNR. Servers are friendly. The food is inexpensive and tasty. Lots of different sub sandwiches to choose from along with pizza wings and other items. read more

Covid safety precautions are firmly in place - I respect The front door is locked and they don't let you in. Menus are posted on the patio table, with the phone number and instructions. Give them a call to place your order and they bring it out to you. You pay for it when they bring it out. The delivery peeps were cheerful and light hearted. I'll come back during the day to have lunch, the backyard was busy, so we are out front. read more

Pub N' Sub - Covid Safe - Pizza Near Me - Reno, Nevada

We just love the garden out back. We braved the cold (was 45 degrees tonight when we left) and we are so glad we did. They have outdoor heaters and a fire pit that is sweet!! We were toasty and comfortable despite the outdoor temp. The pizza was reportedly as delicious as usual (our group ate it all). I had a salad and it was awesome - grilled chicken salad minus the onions and the olives. Food took a long time to come out but that was anticipated as the place was packed already by the time we arrived at 5:30. Steve (owner I think) was really awesome and went out of his way to ensure we had enough seating for our large party (12 people). The kids had an awesome time running around and definitely burned some energy. I think we are back into our Friday nights at pub n sub. We love this place. read more

Why is it places that I visit so often are the places I haven't written a review for? Crazy, huh? Pub n sub is where I associate most of my undergraduate nights with my friends, it has a such a college bar vibe and I am about it, with that being said it doesn't mean its not for others or not good for different occasions! Each time I've been here, I drool over their pizza more and more. I always tell myself that I'll try their sub sandwiches, but I'm so addicted to their pizza, so unfortunately it hasn't happened yet. My go-to pizza Is the "tree hugger" which comes with, garlic & olive oil base, sun dried tomatoes, spinach, feta cheese, walnuts, and red onion. Sounds kinda different? but its crazy how each topping compliments the other and just meshes together into one harmonious delicious pizza. Of course, if you want to select your own toppings, you can! Typing this review is making me hungry and crave pizza. Their pizza is always on point, never had a bad experience. On Monday and Fridays their pizza is half off to dine in. A pro tip, on Fridays it can be busy and take a while for you pizza, so I've placed my order on the phone and by the time I arrive its ready. The prices of the drinks are reasonable and also have happy hour deals daily. During the summer, they do have a backyard with tables that is open for customers to hangout and chill. The people that work there are always super cool and friendly. In fact, one of the guys that makes the pizza there, Spencer always seems to remember me when I go and makes conversation, so it definitely adds to the experience. Go ahead and check it out, you'll thank me later! read more

Went here for the first time and it was amazing!! After drooling over the options We decided on the spicy Italian sandwich & some fried zucchini. We will definitely be back to try more. The environment was very family friendly which is something we look for having a big family. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. read more

I heard the meatballs were to die for here. The environment is very relaxed, casual, with a large seating area inside and outside. There's some TVs for sports and a pool table in the middle of the place. The staff was friendly and quick to take our order. There is a large variety in the menu that goes from sandwiches to pizza and wings. I ordered a meatball pizza which took a little long to come out, but was very good. The pizza was cooked to perfection, not burnt or undercooked. The meatballs added a good flavor to the pizza and made the pizza very enjoyable. The meatballs had a good texture and were not dry or over cooked. All in all, I enjoyed my meal with a beer and will be coming back! read more

I. Love. Their. Pizza. It's just perfect. Lots of cheese. Flavorful sauce. Sourdough or regular crust are both perfect. We go there regularly and last night brought two pies to a concert in the park for a picnic potluck! Omg I just love this local neighborhood spot. My go to is their veggie with no zucchini on regular crust. read more

Been a customer for over 12 years now. Still the best and tastiest pizza you can get anywhere in the world IMO! (Not Exaggerating, I really stand by that statement) One of the major things/places me and the family miss about Reno whenever we are away. And now they are back open after Covid. The first and only place I felt it's worth risking it to go to and dine in after openings. Everyone wore masks, no one allowed inside however you can sit in the backyard and call in your order. They will bring it right out to your table. Felt totally safe. If you haven't been yet, this place definitely worth giving a shot. Support your neighborhood businesses. read more

I scheduled a graduation party with Pub N' Sub a few weeks ago, and I realized I never left an updated review. Pub N' Sub has always been an esteemed place to go - for both families and college students. It is one of the most welcoming places in Reno, and the best place to spend your summer evenings. Steve, the manager, was so helpful and flexible throughout the entire planning process! He gave wonderful suggestions and mentioned the most popular menu items. The night of the event, the weather was pretty nasty. We had reserved tables for the backyard, but Steve was so willing to move our party inside. The servers were really nice and helpful, too. read more
