Subway

The food is fine.  The service is fine.  My problem is that I've had frequent uncomfortable experiences dealing with panhandlers, etc. both inside and just outside the door.

I don't enjoy giving unfavorable reviews... but this should be known about this location.  The only reason I break down and go to it every so often is because it's so close to where I live.

I've lived in the city for 12 years, residing in 5 different neighborhoods.  This is the 2nd worst Subway restaurant I've visited.

Really deserves zero stars, but the staff are always nice and friendly.

1. Whatever happened to fresh bread? I've never had fresh bread here before. Instead the bread is stale, hard and flaky. ALL THE TIME. Why?

2. Here is the reason I will not be back. So one day I'm in line waiting to order my sandwich. I assume it's the owner, I see him wiping down the soda machine, no big deal. All of a sudden I see him scooping up ice that is piled up in the tray and dumping it back into the top of the machine to be REUSED!! WTF...that's a serious health and safety violation. Not to mention just plain nasty. Why would you do that?

3. The ice incident alone is reason enough not to eat there, but if the owner is that screwed up where he is reusing old ice...what else is he reusing/recycling? What other nasty shortcuts has he adopted?

Don't let this newly renovated Subway fool you.
