I have to say, it lived up to the hype. I've heard about Eegees slushies from my Tucson friends for years. My husband brought me one of their subs once, but didn't think the drink would make the trip. The sub was good, definitely better than most chain sub places around. Soft bread, fresh ingredients, etc. So when I saw that there was an Eegees on my way out of town, I took my chance. I was in a hurry, so I went through the drive thru. The guy at the window was very nice, even when I was stumbling over what to call the damn thing. I got a strawberry/ lemon off if the recommendation of a former Tucsonian and yeah, it was delicious. Sweet and tart. And a note to my dear husband, it made the trip back up to Phx just fine. :p read more

Eegee's is a Tucson staple. They have awesome, cheap meatball subs and their fries are pretty solid. To top it off, their ranch is 100. Cheap, easy food- you can't go wrong. But I know why you are here. This frozen cup of magic called the Eegee. To compare it to a slushy does not do it justice. It is the perfect texture for sipping or mixing and has such good, sweet, fruity flavor. Nothing better to beat the heat with than one of these. 4 stars because they are not in Seattle. read more

Got the bucket of slushy to go. This was great. Service was fast and friendly. Ohh yeah bitches!

Have you made any changes to the recipe for the pina colada Eegee? It has a different flavor profile then what I've previously experienced. And not for the better. read more

There's nothing better when it is hot out than an Eegees! For any Tucson native Eegees is an institution. I have to get one every time I visit. My all time favorite is lemon. Most recently I've ordered an Ice Teegees with lemon Eegees. So good! Even though I always get lemon I look forward to seeing what the flavor of the month will be. Go get one! read more

Every time I make my way through Tucson I have to stop by Eegees at least twice. Great food, a little on the pricey side for sandwiches, but awesome nonetheless. I recommend the ranch fries and a turkey grinder. .. read more

I love Eegees. And I don't even get the slushie drinks that make them famous. I like their sandwiches and salads. Everything seems so fresh and good, especially for a place you can drive-thru. Salads are great if you are low-carbing. Sandwiches are great if you are not. I tried the infamous (among my friends, at least) ranch fries one time and was not impressed. Although they DO have the best ranch dressing I've ever tasted. Staff is super nice and I am told they are paid and treated well by the company. They also sell a coupon book every summer where proceeds go to a local charity...I like that a lot. read more

I reviewed the reports on Yelp before I try the Eegees at Speedway Blvd.I was so excited to try it. When I got there, I noticed that they have limited offer of the flavors. I had strawberry and lemon mixed frozen drink. I could taste of the "real fruits" but it was something that I was not really satisified. I dunno what was missing in it. I am not sure if that is because of not enough sugar in it? When I asked for small frozen drink and I thought they were mistake by giving me the large cup but it was labeled as small one.. So cheap for an OK drink. :-) read more

I had the original Grinder and fries. It's a good sandwich and awesome served hot. I stopped in on a whim while doing some business in Tucson and while it looked a bit sketchy at first the place was relatively clean (could use a bit more attention). The staff was super friendly and service was prompt. What I did not like was the "homeless" kid hitting up all the patrons in the dining area. Otherwise it was a good experience. read more

Serving fresh & HOT food with the friendliest speedy service !!! Will be back to this location !

I'm from Tucson and live in San Francisco. The food in SF is great but I always miss eegees. Really good veggie grinders with surprisingly decent vegetable quality and of course the eegee's. And supercheap! I would give them five stars if they didn't use so much styrofoam. read more

Eegees really is a Tucson legend, and I'm a fan. Their sandwiches are good -- I mean, you can find better out there, but they're definitely good with a nice zing of dressing. The legendary Eegees iced drinks are awesome (and definitely great to put booze in, I hear). Their pretzels are awful; they're just out of a box from the frozen aisle of the grocery store. I have yet to try their fries. I've been to Eegees about 30 times, I guessing. The last time I went, several months ago, I got rotten vegetables in my sandwich. Haven't been able to stomach going back there since, but just a warning that some locations get lax towards the end of the day. read more

OMG I love the Frozen Eegee's drinks!! I have one at least once a week!! New flavor every month too! The fries are delicious too! You don't find crimpy fries that often, just these lame skinny fries everywhere. read more

Alright, I'm ticked! The last 4 times that I have gotten fries from eegees, they have been complete crap. They obviously are not cooked fresh and have been hanging over the fryer too long. They also changed the type of fry that they use. Completely different fry than what they used this time last year. The only thing the same is that they are a "crinkle cut." I suppose that this is just another cost savings move on the company - but my God do they suck. I hope they go back to their original formula for their fry - I think they used to win Best of Tucson in the Best Fries category - but never again like this. Get it together. read more

Great Subs Subs were fresh and great-tasting. Just the thing for lunch or supper. I had a tuna sub and the sandwich was well-made and the bread fresh. Great place to eat. read more

I bought a sport court refill in 1997, which they promised would be 99 cent refills for life. By 2011, when I brought it in for a refill, they would try to confiscate my cup (which I owned), and I demanded it back. All eegees since then have refused to honor their "lifetime guarantee" which I paid for. I have not been happy with them ever since. Do not make a promise if you're not going to honor it. read more

Is it just me or has Eegees changed. It's been awhile since we've been there and went today and wasn't even close to what we remembered. The fries are different and the sandwiches were not very good. I don't know if they are trying to save money by changing things but please bring back the old Eegees the food was soooo much better. read more

It's 2:30 in the afternoon and someone in the kitchen has been banging on something since I walked in the door. It's loud and it's been going on for close to 10 min. I like Eegee's a lot but I can't even have a conversation with my Mom right now because it's so loud. Whatever he is doing, there has to be a better way. read more

Dang I wish I could go to eegees one single time without them screwing up my order or without me having to repeat myself incessantly to get what I pay for. Service is always poor - I specify that I do not want mayonnaise on a grinder sand which and I get attitude and am told "there's never mayo on a grinder" ...so then I feel bad and don't specify the next time and they put mayo on it! Inconsistent to say the least. Never include the sauces I ask for and on my last trip here tonight they forgot to give me my cookie. I wish I could visit eegees just one time and have my order be correct. Wishful thinking. read more

I live in San Diego and Eegees is a MUST every time I travel back to Tucson to visit family. The fries are amazing and dipping them in their house ranch dressing is the way to go. Try a turkey sandwich 'grinder' style. And no visit is complete without a ice teegee (lemon flavored slushie with fresh brewed iced tea). Yum! I cant believe someone would say the food sucks because its deli sandwiches. I mean... Come on! read more

My husband and I shared a 12" grinder. Being from northern California, we are used to Subway sandwiches -- where you get several choices of bread, you get to choose what you want on the sandwich, and there are many choices. Not so at Eegee's. The sandwich was on a bun that was akin to a hamburger bun (boring). It came one way (no choices). And it wasn't all that good! Certainly, it wasn't anywhere as close to a Subway. I 've heard Eegee's is a "Tucson institution," but it must not be for the sandwiches. It also took a good 10 minutes to get a sandwich made, and there were only about 6 customers in the entire restaurant, with 3-4 people working. (Subway fixes sandwiches while you watch -- they're that fast.) First and last visit to an Eegee's. read more

Favorite location! Staff is always super friendly and happy to serve you, I don't ever get food, just the eegees but it always tastes great and they don't put 9/10 of one flavor and 1/10 of the second flavor when you ask for half/half, I HATE when other locations do that!! That might sound picky lol but I've been getting eegees for more than 10 years now and I feel like I just wanna enjoy 2 flavors evenly, so thanks guys :) haha read more

Food sucks but the drinks were good. We had the Mango Tango. It was tasty plus adding some sierra mist it was refreshing.

Came here looking for something close to mythical with the way that a native Tusconian was telling me about it. The veggie sandwich was mediocre, maybe a step above subway. I also had one of their icee/snowcone concoction which was also just alright, though I am extremely biased because I dislike something that is just pure sugar, food coloring, and ice. It's not that special, people. But I suppose it's got that local vibe, which is always important for a loyal fanbase. read more

Was with a u.a. Alum who insisted this was worth a stop. I got a "skinny berry" slushie and ate half to be polite. Others in the group like theirs so maybe just avoid the sugar free version? They serve Nathan's hot dogs which we did not try, so maybe that is why others rate this place higher than me? read more

The food is not bad but ultimately too pricy for what you get. If it was cheaper or more consistent I would eat there more often, but Subway is better and Jimmy Johns more reliable. read more

I cannot say anything about the food I just had a "Eegee" which is a slushy...a very very compact icy slushy. So compact that as I was sucking on the straw trying to taste it I ended up putting a pretty big hole in the side of the styrofoam cup and still none of the yummy slushy came out. You can choose to get one flavor or just get a half and half; I choose the half and half of course. I guess Eegee's claim to fame is that the slushies have pieces of fruit in them and the most popular one is the pina colada which has pineapple and coconut in it but unfortunately I dislike most coconut things...I suggest the half and half with lemon and strawberry...a little tart and a little sweet...oishii. read more

Lived here for a year before giving Eegees a try. Snowcones aren't my thing. Actually quite liked their tuna sandwich, appreciated the grinder option and their fries are an Oreida childhood throwback - not a complaint. Okay, so we start going there because I like the subs better than Jimmy John's. Tonight we went, got up to the window and apparently they had just given our order to the car in front of us. Took them about 5 minutes to figure this out after asking us "did you order ____?" a few times. Okay, sucks to be the car in front of us, but we will wait. Then we looked up. PIGEONS. PIGEONS EVERYWHERE. We are sitting in the car gawking at these horrible birds chilling up on the bird-prevention spikes just above the window like it ain't no thing. The woman handed us our drink and it dawned on us that one of these crazy birds could just fly in our car. I was like, "Roll up the window!!" and as if in response, some bird poop somehow dislodged from the canopy above and fell into the driver seat. My boyfriend was freaking out, I was freaking out. I yelled, "We just got bird poop in our car!!" The employee just looked with dead eyes, said nothing. We scoop it up with some junk mail and drive home, me holding the bag of sandwiches in one hand and the other arm stretched out with pigeon poop-covered mail and feeling a bit nauseous. I think we'll be going back to JJ's. read more

I'm a big fan of Eegee's not only for their drinks(I do enjoy myself an Eegee fizz), but I also love their fries and sandwiches. I've gone through the drive-thru twice at this location and both times I was treated very well. Keegan, the young man behind the window, made a point to make sure I was happy with the service/food and was extremely pleasant. This place is overall great! read more

This place is terrible. The bad quality of the food amazes me. I have no idea where they get it from but somehow food of that quality is legal. Got there buffalo chicken sandwich and the chicken had a rubber texture. My girlfriend also tried and and had to spit it out. When asked for a refund I was DENIED. Terrible business practice and terrible food. read more

We went in for dinner tonight. We were helped by a young man named Esteban. I have Celiac Disease and I can't have gluten. Esteban made sure to ask the food prep to change their gloves. He went above and beyond and bagged my food separate from my gluten eaters!! Way to go Esteban!!!. read more

I have spent time in Tucson and in my time there I became a faithful regular at Eegee's. If friends came into town I would take them to Eegee's. I have been away from Tucson for a few years but recently returned. I am glad some things never change. I ordered an eight inch Eegee Grinder.. Yes. Everything was fresh and the dressing was great as always. I didn't order the flavor of the month. I am a die hard Pina Colada man. HEAVEN!! This visit took me back. Good memories, good food. Keep up the good work Eegee"s read more

I'm from California and just came to Tucson for the first time with my boyfriend. He kept talking eegees this and eegees that so we went and I got a turkey grinder with swiss, hot, and OMG I wanted to die, it was literally the BEST sandwich I've ever eaten. I'm sad, for tomorrow I must return to San Diego and the crappy Subway sandwiches I always have to eat there. read more

Their slushees are really amazing. I went in and got May's flavor of the month, Mango Tango. There were bits of actual mango in it! SO YUMMY!!!! I truly am amazed at just how good a slushee can be. It's perfect for a hot summer day. Love this place! read more

Deluxe Grinder is Great and of course "Eegees" are the BEST. I prefer Lemon or Flavor of the month depending on the month (don't forget to mix flavors) read more

Eegees is a Tucson classic! Great sandwitches and my fave degree is july 's flavor of the month: watermelon! Any other month I get strawberry lemon. Im addicted to their house dressing... I recommend the turkey grinder! THE FRIES ARE FANTASTIC! voted "best fries" two years in a row! read more

I like this Eegee's a lot. It's convenient to my work and the staff is always so friendly. There is also a drive thru at this location if you're in a hurry. I don't feel there's much left to say about Eegee's excpept if youre not a Tucson native- you gotta try it! Ranch fries for the win! But if you're feeling a little less sinful, their garden salad for about $3 is always a winner! read more

Good, not great. I'd had better slushies than this. You can't drink anything til it's completely melted and honestly, who wants to wait that long? However, the flavors (mango tango special, lemonade, strawberry) are nice. read more

Man, talk about memorable experiences. Eegee's is super good. Those slushies are hypnotic and the meatball hoagie is simply unreal. I was sitting here in the freezing cold here in Milwaukee and just daydreaming about a warm desert day with a slushie in one hand and a sandwich in another. Great stuff, Tucson is lucky to have a great spot like this. read more

Great slushes and a variety of sandwiches, a true local treat. Worth stopping for something that's not main stream (subway or quiznos)
