Earl's Sub Shop

Great subs

Sandwich Heaven? Pretty darn close!

I was finally able to go to Earl's today after my nephew's baseball game. Like the last reviewer Michael F. mentioned be prepared to wait. Even on a Saturday afternoon there were at least 10 people in line ahead of us when we arrived. All in all we waited close to 30 minutes for our lunch after placing the order.

The only reason I can come up for them being slow is love. These sandwiches are perfection. I went with the Classic Turkey w/ Bacon and after eating this monster I didn't eat again for 24 hours. It was a great sandwich with top shelf toppings on a D'Ambrosio roll.

While you're waiting you can walk through the shop and pick out a drink from the huge assortment of them and a snack to go with your sandwich.

Next time I go I'm definitely trying the cheesesteak.

First thing is first, if you go to Earl's ...be ready to wait.  I've been twice, and each time waited at least 15-20 minutes from walking in to walking out for one hoagie.  Each time there was less then a half dozen folks in there, so I'm still having a hard time comprehending the slow operation.

Onto more important things, the hoagies themselves.  Looks like Earl's is using D'Ambrosio rolls for their sandwiches.  Good move.  The roll can stand up to a big sandwich and has plenty of flavor compared to many other local choices.  The hoagies are prepared with plenty of TLC from what I believe might be the owner (Mom sorta type) with lots of care.  Really fresh ingredients, and I enjoy the Special Italian.  Perfect balance of ingredients and maybe one of the better hoagies in Southern Chester County compared to their local competition.

There are also plenty of choices on hot sandwiches and breakfast items.  I do intend to try a scrapple and egg someday.
