They do not greet you or thank you for your purchases and the time being here. Ambiance: There was no music playing and you can just hear other customers talking with their friends and family. The tables were dirty as if no one had cleaned them all day. There were garbage and crumbs all over the floor. The garbage cans were overflowed with garbage. The chicken sandwich tasted just ok and like any other restaurant. The fries tasted like normal fries. The fried chicken was ok and tasted better with the gravy. The peach mango pie was delicious and probably the best part of the meal. The pineapple quencher was too watered down. Overall: I might come back here if they fixed their service, had a cleaner dining area and when the food tastes a little better. It is definitely not worth the effort to drive out of the way to get this type of food.

Unfortunately, during this time there were teenagers going in and coming out with bags of food. These were not Uber eats employees. They were most likely friends of the employees on shift. Once I got up to the drive through speaker I was then told there was no more food. I've never heard of any Mcdonalds say they ran out of food. McDonald's historically on average can serve 1500-2000 servings per day. This employee told me they ran out of food and was giving away food to friends then tell a paying customer there is no more food. This is unacceptable. He also told Me the store was closed at 9pm.

When I approached the register, the employee asked who I was picking up for. I showed her the order information on my phone, and she checked it before walking away. The problem was that she never came back or gave me any update. I was left standing there waiting, assuming the order was still being prepared. After waiting longer than necessary, I had to approach another employee to find out what was happening. I was then told that my food had actually been ready for several minutes. That was frustrating because a simple update or acknowledgment would have avoided the entire situation. What bothered me most was that when I finally brought up the issue, instead of acknowledging the inconvenience, I felt like I was being brushed off with a quick "have a good night." I understand that restaurants can get busy, and I'm not expecting perfect service every time. However, basic communication, attentiveness, and respect go a long way especially when someone is simply trying to pick up an order. I'm leaving this review because the pickup process needs improvement. Management should make sure employees are communicating with customers and following through after asking them for their order information. A little better customer service would make a big difference.

Would definitely come back. Also, there is outside seating available for those nice days. Just went to this subway and it wasn't very good. My bread was not fresh because it was hard. The meat I got was grisly and just not prepared very well. My sandwich was drenched in dressings. And I didn't get tomatoes because they looked disgusting like it was starting to go bad because they looked soft and soggy. I ended up taking a few bites and throwing my sandwich away. If you want good food please do not come to this location. Nice kids at the counter. Place is freezing cold. It's a nice 70 degree evening and it was like 50 in there with a wind chill of 40. Funny, places like this scrimp every penny and will shave ounces off the meats and give you 11.5 inches for a Foot-long. For pete's sake, turn the A/C down and save a bundle. had the special 12 inch for the day, Chicken for $6.26 Fast service, tasty sandwich made to my liking! Found the store on my GPS! I enjoy coming here from time to time. The sandwiches are nicely made, and the staff (usually high school students) are friendly and do a good job. The location is easy to get to and parking is always available. One drawback is that you have to circle around the bank to get out again. They're probably never that full that they have to use the back dining area, but there is a back dining area in case you want to sit down and eat and be alone. From time to time at around 8:30 pm at night they might have run out of bread or certain types of bread. That's just them being slightly off with their sales estimates for the day and presumably the fact that they nearly sell out every day helps to keep prices reasonable (less food thrown away). This Subway is very accommodating and tasty too. Not too long ago we were having a party of about 25 people, and needed lots of food! We forgot to order catering so after calling local pizzerias, all of which needed 24 hours notice fro 6 foot subs, we decided to call subway. An hour before the party we ordered two party platters with roast beef and ham subs. They were ready in about 30 minutes, had many condiments, napkins, and they even threw in two containers of cookies for free! I must say I was more than pleased, and it was cheap too!

The bar is high. The bread must be right. The ratios must be just so. There are generations of reputations at stake. And yet, here I am, awarding five stars to a chain. Jersey Mike's Subs has no business being this good in this zip code, but it is. The sandwiches are consistently solid, the bread soft with just enough backbone, the meats sliced to order with a reassuring whir and volume that says someone cares. You can get it Mike's Way and watch the oil and vinegar rain down like a benediction. It isn't theater. Its craft, executed with the steady competence of people who understand that how you spend your lunch money matters. In a region where family owned establishments will always reign supreme, Jersey Mike's is the crème de la crème of the chain sub world. That alone would earn them praise. Consistency is a virtue. Knowing that your Italian sub will taste the way it did last month and the month before that is a small but meaningful comfort in this chaotic world. But this particular location earns its fifth star for reasons that have nothing to do with provolone. Our school district has called on them more than once when an event needed catering and the budget was held together with hope and dollar store duct tape. They are quick with a discount code or a special price, the sort of quiet assistance that keeps a fundraiser from becoming a fiasco. Then there was the day we hosted a fundraiser for a family displaced by tragedy. When the owners learned why we were raising money, they donated every dime that we brought in. Not a percentage. Not merely the profits. Every single cent raised. There is no corporate memo or marketing guideline that can manufacture that kind of gesture. That is humanity. It's neighbors taking care of neighbors. I am certain their goal was not to secure my personal undying loyalty. Nevertheless, they have it. Five stars, not just for the sandwiches, but also for the people behind the counter who understand that a sub shop can also be a small engine of decency.

Four sliders with cheese, medium fries, medium Dr. Pepper from one of those freestyle machines that I'm still convinced that it might have been designed by NASA. The food itself was fine. Familiar. Greasy in all the correct places. No complaints there. Still, I left with the impression that this location might function better as a confusing modern art installation than as a restaurant. I'll be back to White Castle, of course. But probably not to this one.

If we were being honest, we would call this location Lawrence Township, but honesty is not always the first ingredient in branding. Location, location, location, even for burgers. Getting there by car is an adventure best left to those with a flexible relationship to risk. The turn off Route 1 feels like a wager against fate, and the alternate path through the outer rings of Mercer Mall suggests a quiet exile. Fortunately, the Shake Shack app exists, sparing one from both traffic patterns and insurance claims. This is how I most recently enjoyed my meal, delivered neatly to my workplace for a coworker's birthday lunch, which felt appropriately celebratory. I usually order the Shack Stack, a dependable monument to excess where a burger and a breaded portobello mushroom coexist in harmony. This time, I strayed. I chose the "limited time" K-Shack Fried Chicken Sandwich, which arrived with promises of a spicy sweet sesame gochujang glaze, scallions, and kimchi slaw. The blueprint was sound. In execution, the flavors spoke in a whisper when they should have sung. The kimchi and the sauce both seemed to hold something back, as if saving themselves for another sandwich. I'm sure some focus group told them they liked it spicy, but just corporate spicy. Many people treat Shake Shack as the summit of elevated fast food. I remain a respectful observer rather than a true believer. Still, the food is consistently good, reliably satisfying, and, if you can avoid the drive, all the better. Four stars, because reliability is a virtue, even when geography is a nightmare.

Food was decidedly mediocre and nothing to ever return for. Burgers are low quality--super dry and tasteless meat. Zero flavor. You need a ton of trimmings to make it palatable. Regular double cheeseburger was a miss. Double bbq char burger was a tiny bit better thanks to the bacon and fried onions that gave the sad burger some texture and flavor. The bun added nothing, so I'd skip it and get the lettuce wrap instead. Regular Fries were soggy and bland. Skip. Sweet potato fries were the highlight of the meal in terms of quality--super light and not at all greasy. Pleasant surprise. I'd order them again. Fried string beans were meh. Too much batter.
