I pass by this place 5x a week, we'll I finally decided to go there after sampling my sons steak hoagie, IT was so good that I ate half of it..The owner was so welcoming and gracious. I ordered a steak hoagie, the sandwich was hot, juicy, the bread was so soft, that I ate it in the parking lot. I was so happy that they had loganberry, that the owner gave me a free drink. The next time I went with my son and of course the owner knew him. They have a great variety of food and daily specials, and the price is right. You can also dine in and it is handicap accessible. The restaurant is clean and you can also dine in, it is very family friendly read more

Can't visit Buffalo without making this stop, my Royal sub on that roll never misses unlike my Sabres

This Young man named CJ was so helpful to me and my family honestly the best worker ever and his food was great -MayDay

Let me tell you, I've been to many restaurants and fine dining establishments in Western New York and this has to be one of the worst ones i've been to in a very long time. The owner had an attitude with my children (13) and (8). Keep in mind, they did not leave my sight ONCE. But unfortunately this man was giving them snarl looks and saying they needed to leave if they weren't buying anything. My children and I left the restaurant after about 20 minutes. We were extremely disappointed in this place not just for the heckling from the owner but also the food was not done correctly at all. I ordered their steak sub and it states "$11.35" on the menu when I actually paid about $17 for my sub. False advertising is something I look for in all the restaurants and this one had it all over. Besides the price, the food came out terrible like I said before. Steak tasted like rubber tires mixed with cardboard and the rest of the ingredients were undercooked. Unfortunately, I couldn't grab a picture of my god awful food or the ambiance. But I will say the only plus about this place is it's a very homey vibe. I love those kind of restaurants but if you're gonna talk to my kids like that and sell me false priced piss poor mediocre food, you got something else coming for you. Overall my experience at John and Mary's was terrible and I will for sure never ever go back. read more

This place is amazing. Great guest service and the food is killer. The owner is always so friendly. One time have me a quarter chicken that he was cooking for himself. read more

Driving home I called ahead for 2 chicken finger subs. Ten minutes they said and they were ready! J&M's have always had the best and we hadn't been home in a few years and it looked like someone else was running the place. Well, they still have the best chicken finger subs that we have ever tasted. read more

Same great original taste all these years. Still hasn't changed. !!! Amazing food. ! Subs have that unique taste they've always had !!!!!! Love it !!! Never close !!!!!! read more

For me this place had a very average chicken finger sub though I guess this place is known for them. I had that and ordered a stinger sub as well and was overall disappointed by my meal. The fries were also just okay and I saw them simply reheat my fries in fryer as I walked over to counter vs a fresh order since they say out for awhile. There's pretty sandwiches in area to try. Don't get caught up in the hype. read more

John & Mary's - Stinger Sub and Fries - Pizza Near Me - Cheektowaga, New York

For the past few weeks I have been craving a royal sub. I finally took the plunge and decided to get a royal from John and Mary's. The ordering was quick and I waited a minimal amount of time to get my sub. The royal scratched the itch and was good. My only complaint is that there was too much mayo on it. The mayo was oozing out the sides of the sub and I wiped some off, other than that, the royal was good. read more

Real great subs...love the Italian sausage and the A-bomb. Service is fast and your made to feel like one of the family Looking forward to our next visit read more

So with the loss of all the local Jimmy John's, we decided to try a local favorite. Glad we did - this place is great. My first visit there, friendly staff recommended the Royal. I was back the next day to try the wings which were also great. If you order hot food, realize they cook it to order, so there is a wait. This isn't as fast as a Subways, but the quality of the food is worth the wait as long as you know what to expect. We did take-out the first visit, eat-in the second. I don't know how well they're doing, but a fresh coat of paint wouldn't hurt! Otherwise, it's like stepping back into an 80s movie with old school counters, video game machines and fake wood tables. Can't wait to try something else!:) read more

It's the same old food that I remember when I was young. I'm my opinion they have the best assorted sub in WNY. New owners kept all the original recipes. Doggie hoagie is delicious and one of the most unique sandwiches around. read more

I've been going here for as long as I can remember as I grew up right down the street. They changed ownership not too long ago. The food has stayed consistent and the new owner seems to friendlier then the last old guy with glasses who used to work there and was very rude to me when I was in high school. My only negative about this place is every single time I order something with tomatoes on it they give me the butt/end of the tomato! Every single damn time. I would rather have no tomatoes at all then the butt/end. Please just throw them away it's seriously so annoying. I would say the last four times I've been there I received the butt/end of the tomato. Also on multiple occasions my lettuce has been very brown & soggy. I love the food here but I'm done ordering anything with tomatoes or lettuce on it until I see some sort of improvement. read more

wowowowww my favorite sub in Buffalo! Im from LA and everytime I go home I always need to order their chicken parm sub. You can literally ask anyone who knows me and I hate sandwiches lol. But JM Chick Parm sub is just so damn delicious. Perfect bite. Cant wait to get it again very soon!! read more

The pepper and egg was amazing!!!! Service was friendly. Ordered for takeout. The sandwich was only $5

My dad has been eating at this restaurant for years. We ordered a couple of subs. We ordered the Royal, Steak Hoagie and Chicken Parmesan subs. They were all good! The white roll is ESPECIALLY GOOD! I love and appreciate that the Royal is actually made with sausage along with capicola, rather then salami and capicola like some other restaurants. I do have some complaints. They were out of kalamata olives, stuffed grape leaves, cucumbers and other items that are required to make a Greek salad. I tried to order a garden salad. They were out of items required to make a garden salad. The employees response was their salads don't get ordered often so they don't carry a lot of the ingredients. My thoughts are, so don't keep salads on the menu. I also over heard an employee tell another customer they were out of wheat rolls. It was disappointing. read more

John & Mary's - Partial Menu - Pizza Near Me - Cheektowaga, New York

55 years later and still the best! Same quality ingredients, top level service. Best subs in Buffalo!

All but one of the locations has shut down; they had the best subs!In addition, when I called the "Yelp" company, one employee was terribly nasty to me when I tried to tell him that John & Mary's website was also shut down. (Since the specific businesses running it were no longer in existence, so how can they call Yelp to remove it? Not too smart on the Yelp employee's part. read more

When I walked into this sub shop, I felt like I stepped back in time to the Fast Times At Ridgemont High movie set in 1982. What a trip! I ordered a whole chicken finger sub, medium, with blue cheese, L, T, O. My sister got the fingers platter with fries. We ordered pizza logs too, half order. I must have been a glutton for deep fried punishment because though it was good, it was so much fried food. The sub itself was really good. I could only get through half (and I was at the point of being "hangry" so I thought I could eat all of that food). I'm pretty sure the sub roll is Costanza's, which are totally the best. The pizza logs (half order is 2) were like pizza egg rolls. Good, but again fried and just too much. The staff was friendly, funny, and thorough. It was worth the stop to time travel a bit. read more

Not all J&Ms are alike. This is the original and by far the best! No tacos or pizza but their subs are the best. Italian sausage with the homemade sauce and sweet peppers is a recommended choice. Doggie Hoagie is hidden gem. read more

Just as expected, never a disappointment! Ordered my usual (as it was 12 years ago) an assorted with sausage and banana peppers. Fresh ingredients, outstanding roll, ample assorted lunch meats & rabbit food! Great value for dinner and I have lunch for tomorrow as well! read more

Got a great turkey club sub from J & M the other day. Girlfriend got a pizza sub that she liked, a bit spicy pepperoni but we'll be back !

One of a Kind & The Best Subs Around the Entire WNY Area!

This place USED to be amazing. I would eat here all the time. All through middle and high school it was like our go to place to eat. Things have definitely changed with the owners now. They buy poor quality items and want us customers to pay the same prices we were paying for the amazing quality foods of the previous owners. I find that ridiculous that they want to be cheap and not keep the place how it was. It's always a shame when local great places go down the tubes because of new ownership just trying to make a quick buck. Go back to the roots and clean the place up while you're at it. read more

Friendly staff and quick service. A western NY go to for subs. We especially like the Stinger and steak hoagie.

John and Mary's is good. They've been a Buffalo staple for a long time. I've had most of what's on the menu, and I am always satisfied. In the surrounding area, John and Mary's is one of the best pizzas. Granted, Harlem Rd in Cheektowaga isn't exactly flush with quality competition. The facility is always pretty clean. Not extremely impressive, but it's what you would expect or hope for from your average pizzeria. Overall, nothing that will blow your mind here, but definitely will not disappoint you. You can find better in Buffalo, but John and Mary's holds its own, particularly in this specific area. read more

Easily my favorite place to get subs. How can you go wrong: the service is fast, the food is fresh, and they always get my order right. While I have tried multiple subs and they are are really good, I keep going back to my usual a full ham sub, tomato, provolone cheese, lettuce, and mayo (only thing they put a generous portion of mayo so if you don't want a lot of mayo I would ask for light mayo). As I was saying prior the service is quick, every time I've order it has never been longer than a 10 minute wait which is great when you want fast food. And last but not least the food is fresh, the rolls are perfect, the tomatoes are juicy, lettuce is great, and the meat is tasty. If you are looking for a delicious sub you definitely should stop by John & Mary's read more

This one one of the first sub shops I tried after moving to the Buffalo area about 7 years ago. I've eaten at Jon and Mary's several times, and I've never once been disappointed. The only drawback is they do not stock mozzarella cheese, so if you are ordering a chicken parm sub, it will come with provolone instead of mozzarella (not a deal breaker for me, but some of my friends say it changes the taste completely). I'd recommend the chicken finger sub, but they also have delicious vegetarian options as well. read more

Have been ordering from here for years, but they have really gone downhill after new owners took over. Ordered chicken wings last night. Half medium, half BBQ. The only word to describe them was disgusting. They even looked gross when we opened the box. Mushy, slimy and they tasted old and musty. No more John and Marys for me. Too many other great pizza/wing/sun joints in this area. read more

This is the best John and Mary's around, I live closer to others but I always go here, the service is fantastic!! The guys there are awesome and so friendly!!! the food is ALWAYS fresh nothing negative to say about this place,definitely recommend!!! read more

Great food but TERRIBLE service. Very rude people who act like they hate their jobs and take it out on the coustmers.

Friendly staff foods average but its one of those places that thinks an order of fries is 20 fries.... got a double order and it was still sub standard.... read more

This place doesn't answer phones when they don't want to work. I've experienced this several times and it is sad during this time when many places are begging for business! They do have great food but to not answer phones because you don't want to work is shameful! read more

I ordered 2 chicken fingers subs tonight and when I went to go pick them up, the card reader was not working. The lady tried my card 4 times and ultimately denied me from getting the food. She said it had been happening for a few days but no one was doing anything about it. Instead of giving me the food and having good customer service, she took the subs back to either let the employees eat them and throw them away. I was a willing paying customer who was treated poorly. I live very close and go there often , but I won't be coming anymore. I'm writing this while waiting for my food down the street at Tonys pizza, which is where I will be going from now on. It's too bad. read more
