Fantastic food. Real chicken tenders and the honey mustard is amazing. Friendly fast and professional. One of the BEST sub shops...and while you are there you can also stop at the convenience store.

Food was great they made me a egg sandwich sub. Absolutely great. Good selection of drinks and there was seating there if I wanted to sit down. Overall really good breakfast spot when you get that egg sandwich craving.

Absolutely! Here’s a short and punchy review you can post online or use anywhere: If you’re anywhere near this place and don’t get a breakfast sandwich, you’re doing mornings wrong. The eggs are perfectly cooked, the bacon is crisp, the English muffins are always fresh, and the flavors hit that sweet spot between hearty and crave-worthy. And don’t even get me started on the grilled blueberry muffins—golden on the outside, warm and bursting with juicy blueberries inside. It’s like your favorite childhood muffin got a five-star makeover. So simple, so good, so worth it.

This is one of those stores, I don't even need to be hungry, I just stop by any time I'm driving by. It has been many years and they got rid of the milkshake machine, but the grilled cheeseburger is as good as I remember

I have many childhood memories of coming to Sandys as a kid, but I haven't returned in years. I was recently in the area and decided to stop in. This place hasn't changed in 30+ years – the food is just as good, and the prices are affordable. I highly recommend anyone stop in for a sub.

Stopped in and got a couple large steak and cheese subs with onions, peppers, and mayo - it was one of my favorite subs around! Meat was similar to a steak tip and tasted well seasoned, the cheese and mayo made the sandwich nice and creamy, and the onions and peppers added a nice flavor too. Convenient for a quick lunch and the staff were really friendly!
