Ordering a sandwich at a Subway restaurant can be more challenging than meets the eye. Here are some tips to follow to make the perfect sandwich.

Steps

  1. 1 Make a decision (type of bread, meat, vegetables, cheese) before approaching the employee behind the counter. Don't wait to be asked to make a decision. If you're not sure what you want, skip the other customers ready to order.
    • Ask any questions you might have before starting your order. For example, about vegetarian sandwiches, standard sets, prices. Most Subway restaurants have glass displays with menus and options for bread, cheese and other items available.
    • If for some reason you do not eat any type of meat, clarify what the ham is made of, it can be made from both turkey and pork.
  2. 2 Order the type of sandwich you like. Remember, Subway also serves tortillas and salads.
    • Be aware that sandwiches can be 15 or 30 cm long. If you are traveling with a friend, a 30 cm sandwich can be split in half and save money.
    • Tell the employee what kind of bread you want. It can be Italian, wheat, oat and others.
    • Add cheese if desired. Not all restaurants have the same cheese, but if you say you want white cheese, they will offer you that cheese.
    • Decide what kind of heating you need. Want to reheat your sandwich in the oven, toaster, microwave? Toasting bread in a toaster is a good idea. Especially if you order a sandwich with sauce and meatballs, steak or chicken. Try both hot and cold sandwiches to see the difference.
    • Tell the employee what kind of vegetables you want. Specify the amount, for example "a little salad" or "more pickled cucumbers". Check the names of vegetables, for example, restaurants have green and bell peppers, and even jalapenos.
    • Order condiments like mayonnaise, mustard, sweet onion sauce, etc. Add vinegar, salt, black pepper. If you order not a ready-made sandwich, nothing is added "automatically", only what you ordered.
  3. 3 Pay at the checkout. Even if the price seems unreasonable to you, do not argue or comment, the calculation was carried out by the computer. The cashier will not be able to help you and change the price, unless the wrong product has been counted for you. If you want to save money, don't order Combo-Hit. Ask for water, they will bring you a glass of water for free.
  4. 4 Say thank you.

Tips

  • Try to be polite, the happier the employee, the better he will serve you.
  • If you often go to the same restaurant, remember the name of the employee, if not very crowded, start a conversation. A friendly regular customer will always improve your mood, and if an employee likes you, he will always inform you about specials. offers or discounts.
  • If you do not know the exact name of the sandwich, the staff will help you decide. For example, a friend suggested that you try the chicken sandwich with sweet sauce. The employee will tell you unmistakably that this is a Teriyaki Chicken sandwich.
  • Some countries have introduced "The Works", which includes all the vegetables on offer: lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, pickles, red onions, green peppers and (optional) jalapenos. This makes ordering easier.
  • When you place a large order, especially during a busy time, be extremely polite. The best way to make such an order is by phone. Tipping is welcome as a token of gratitude for completing a large order.
  • Don't be surprised if different employees ask the same questions. Usually, one employee goes through 2 to 3 steps and passes your sandwich on.
  • If you think that you have not been given enough food, especially meat or cheese, or have been put in too much, politely report it. You can ask for a table with portion sizes. Usually it is not on public view, but behind the counter. Politely and calmly ask for a table for your reference.
  • If you come during rush hour, for example, at lunchtime, or late in the evening, do not expect to be served quickly, because the line will be long. Be nice to your employees, it’s a stressful situation for them.

Warnings

  • Don't talk to your friends when placing an order. This is rude and impolite.
  • Do not talk on the phone while ordering, this is impolite and, in the end, will lead to the fact that the sandwich is not executed correctly. An exception is a conversation with the person for whom you are making an order.
  • Some restaurants do not accept coupons from other franchise restaurants. Before using the coupon. Please read the terms of use carefully. If in doubt, check with an employee before starting your order.
  • Don't fight with an employee if they don't have the product you want. Talk to the manager politely and ask him / her to order the required cheese or chips for next week.
  • Don't make people who cook food for you angry. Your lunch might be spoiled.
