Subway at Texaco - Kitchens Garage is currently the closest location to Burnley town centre with the other location temporarily closed due to COVID, it makes sense why they'd keep this store open due to its' location in a standalone unit which is part of a service station, as you can drive right up to it and park outside, which is a benefit you won't have in the town centre. The store is a franchise and is owned/operated by N and K Foods Ltd.
For a service station Subway, it was pretty large allowing ample seating when the current situation allows.
The pricing was a little bit more expensive than usual, mainly down to the extras costing more, while my base sub was cheaper, I noticed to have any extra toppings would cost more, for example, double meat or an additional topping would cost £1.50 more, a difference of 50% compared to other stores.... that's before adding gluten-free bread too!
They did have an issue accepting my free drink reward for completing a survey, the sandwich artist who served me called over her supervisor, he didn't seem to know how to enter the code, he just stared at it before wrongly typing it into the machine, he then blamed the fact that my previous transaction was at another store, which shouldn't be a problem, eventually, I did get my drink, he did seem friendly about it, but the most frustrating part was watching my food sit there going cold while they tried to process the drink, and the fact the drinks machine is also turned off... (why would it be turned off due to COVID when every other Subway store I've been too, has it turned on?)
My sub did taste quite good and was fresh, I found it interesting how they used different utensils here including a plastic blue spoon to spread the tuna.
3* - The location is good if you're in a car, however, the walk from the town centre was difficult (I had to set my GPS to car navigations as the pedestrian route on Apple and Google maps was wrong), not really worth the price especially for extras but a decent place to grab lunch on the go in Burnley. read more
