This place has never disappointed me. Their subs are top-notch, toasted perfectly. My favorite is the steak souvlaki sub. They normally put lettuce and tomatoes on it but I order it without them. The feta cheese and tzatziki sauce make then very tangy. They also have a great fish fry that is served every day not just Fridays. They insure a crispy batter by wrapping the fish in aluminum foil. Their fries are always perfectly made with just the right crispness and soft inside. Their delivery service is prompt and friendly. read more

Writing on behalf of my mother. She ordered subs Tuesday or Wednesday. The subs were greasy, loaded with oil, soggy and looked nothing like the picture. The owner was rude and refused to do anything about the disappointing experience. read more

the only place i know that posts limited hours and then closes early on the limited hours. We go by yours Hours to plan things. then we have to go elsewhere cause your not open on 5 pm on a Saturday. It's sad. but go bills. read more

We put an order in, they accepted and waited till the order was supposed to be delivered then canceled the order out of the blue. We won't be ordering from here again. What a joke. read more

We got a Ham Sub, was substantial filled with meat and lettuce etc.... I used to go to John & Mary's for subs but this is my new fave! Now I need to try other things. read more

Food is always fresh and no matter what I have ordered it's been excellent quality and great taste

I've been to Pat's many times in the past and my favorite was the royal sub... Take out a few times during the COVID time then just kinda forgot about it..... Till this past Friday. This royal could possibly have been the best I've ever had!!! Absolutely delicious!! Not forgetting again! read more

Ordered a fish fry as they proudly have been advertising it for years now. They even had a black metal fish decoration adorning the establishment, so I figured I'd try it, as other places were closed. Their subs are quite good if you don't mind paying an arm and a leg. The fish fry however, was pretty terrible. At $15 you get about 1/2 of what you get anywhere else and don't expect macaroni salad, don't expect potato salad and don't expect a slice of rye bread. What you should expect is a tiny slice of greasy flat fish, half a cup of shredded sub lettuce with a couple pieces of diced tomato (saddest side salad I've ever seen) and a half a cup of some gross mayo drenched cole slaw with some fries. As usual Pat's, I cannot comprehend HOW you stay open. This place is a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT and they have a lot of nerve charging what they charge. Back when the father owned and ran this place it was top notch. Now who ever runs it should be ashamed. So bad. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. I should have known.. never again! (Photo posted) read more

OMG!! I'm a local girl and I finally ordered the "Award Winning Haddock Fish Fry" It was definitely a test situation... I even had it delivered! - it came Hot! Awesome - the sides, cole slaw and tartar were homemade - big juicy fresh lemon - the fish was exactly what he said lightly battered haddock very tasty! Chef Salad was ok...but not homemade potato or macaroni? I will adjust my order next time for sure... The Fry Needed a little Balance. Fish was very good, too many frys, excellent tartar!! if your gonna skip the Mac & potato salad give a nice slice of rye bread! I love Coleslaw and it really covered that fresh crunchy, not too mayonasey! read more

Having never been here before, I was just expecting a normal sub shop. This place delivered. Jonny is a very engaging and proud man. You can tell he takes passion in his restaurant and his food. He told me some stories of what the restaurant stands for and while looking around, you can tell how clean they are. I ordered some food with a coworker and we split some subs. Steak and cheese and a hit chicken finger sub. The steak and cheese was very good. Cheese nicely melted through with some banana peppers for a back end spice. Nicely toasted roll. I've have some pretty terrible steak subs in the past so this was thankfully very good to remove past thoughts of let downs. The chicken finger sub was on par or maybe slightly better than the steak. Great fingers. Only thing I would have did was add a bit more hot sauce when they were shaken. Good, crispy fries also. Really good place. Will be back! read more

Pat's Submarines - Steak and cheese sub - Chicken Wings Near Me - Lackawanna, New York

Shout out to Pat's for fulfilling my steak hoagie craving during quarantine. Sub was top notch. They're not doing wraps but the Stinger sub was good. Needed more chicken fingers. Fries and ORings were solid. Loved the tangy char-BBQ chicken fingers. Yumm! Ordered and picked up from their new side window in 15 minutes. read more

We were in the area today and decided to stop in to Pat's Subs. I hadn't been here in years and boy were we missing out. The customer service was friendly and attentive. Our food was was absolutely delicious. I had the half sub combo and let me tell you- it was THE BEST CHICKEN FINGER SUB I've had in like 15 years!!! It was THAT GOOD! The fingers were perfectly fried and dipped enough to have a good coating of sauce but not too much that it leaked out or made the batter soggy. The roll was perfectly toasted and didn't fall apart or become a soppy mess as I was eating it. The flavor of the sauce was just the right amount of heat and savory. It was the perfect sub. I will definitely be coming back more often especially when I get a hankering for a chicken finger sub! My bf also had chicken fingers done BBQ and chargrilled and they were FANTASTIC! The sauce was delicious on those wonderfully fried tenders; it had a nice bit of heat and the char was just the piece de resistance! We both had a generous serving of fries on the side, that were superb (and even better dipped in their house blue cheese!!). The place itself is really fun inside; with lots of Buffalo, and sports memorabilia and is the sort of cozy, inviting space that gives you the feeling of being in someone's den. Steller food and service! We can't wait to go back and try some of the other tasty sounding options! read more

Great subs and great people. Service is exceptional. Ambiance is perfect for lunch or a quick dinner.

Normally they have very good food. But the last two times we ordered a "sub platter" they charged us for a platter but just gave us regular subs in a bag. The "platter" is 4 subs but they cut for you and put on a tray with lid and charge $5 more. So $5 wasted and we had to cut our own at home each time. We let the first time slide but two times is extremely annoying. We called and got no rectificafion other than driving back which would make us late for our party. One of our subs was incorrect. And pricing seems wayyy off. Our total came to $72 for fries and 4 subs!? Sub platter was stated to be $47.99. And we ordered a large fry with it. So that means fries were $20!? They stated mushrooms are extra, bacon is extra. HOWEVER, one of the subs we ordered was literally a turkey bacon club. How is bacon extra? It's part of the sub? Same with steak hoagie - mushrooms should be included? Those were the only two extras they stated that we would have gotten. Even nickle and diming those toppings plus a "large" fry (which was not a lot at all and also cold) should not be $20. Definitely didn't seem to want to figure out a solution for us when we called. Instead they implied we ordered a chicken finger sub when in fact we ordered a stinger sub. I heard my husband clearly order a stinger sub. No tomato. There were tomatoes. Why question us over one sub that could have absolutely been incorrect? Maybe question your employee? We won't be back. read more

I always come here for the huge delicious tacos. But all that it takes is one bad experience. Tacos weren't available on the menu today and counter person didn't even give me a second to decide on something else and he had a bit of a shitty attitude. I'll be going to Bella pizza from here on out to get my tacos. The tacos were the only reason I came to this establishment. Ps the substituted cheeseburger sub was good tho read more

Pat's Submarines - a car parked in front of a restaurant - Chicken Wings Near Me - Lackawanna, New York

The food is tasty but very over priced. He try's to make a lot of different types of food like Gyros but he makes it with ingredients they have already and its not a true Gyro or close. He does this with a few different items and they are OK but of disappointing. Everything is over priced. His subs are all the same price it doesn't matter if you get a ham sub or a steak sub and a lot of his items are like that including appetizers. I rarely eat here Maybe once a year because his fish fry's are pretty good but that's about it. I missed the old pats it was 100% better between quantity, price and well just about everything read more

This is definitely a neighborhood joint. The guys that work here are "South Buffalo" all the way. Go in and talk about the neighborhood and talk about Sports Teams, super friendly and salt of the earth type. The place is usually empty when I go, but is always spotless clean and the food is ready to go 10 min after my order. Speaking of Subs, this place is top notch and in my opinion the best Sub shop in south buffalo. Food and Ingredients are Very fresh, and tastes great and blows away the food of Jim's Steak's (greasier and sloppy and the place is not NEARLY as clean) which I would consider the main competition to this place in the area. I like the Steak subs here and I've done the cheeseburger sub which was very good, but my favorite is the "Fat Pat's" steak and sausage combined. Very delicious. If you need a sub, go here. It's the best in the area and it's not close. read more

The nicest workers, and even more amazing subs. A locally owned family restaurant that's been here for years, fair prices, clean, and sooo many options. A lil greasy but as a cook, I'm used to it and genuinely enjoy a good ol' sloppy meal at a little dive, so if ya haven't gone, go!! read more

Do yourself a favor and put down your corporate chain slop and get some good food at pats. Be warned no other sandwich can compare.

Wow. Went to Pat's before a concert. Came in to a very clean establishment, nice real wood tables, tv screens with the Sabres game on. I ordered a stinger sub and a taco. Friend ordered Cajun shrimp platter and a bacon cheeseburger sub. All 4 were very good. Stinger was cool cause they chopped the fingers with the steak and that works out great! We'll put together taco. The opener was working and what a great guy I'm a first timer and look forward to returning soon! read more

I came here after work to grab some takeout, after having met someone who works there, who I cashed out last night. I pass by this place at least three times a week on my way to my second job and I'm so glad that I stopped in. I ordered the managers special. You can get a half sub, sandwich, taco, or wrap. It comes with coleslaw, french fries, onion rings, or macaroni salad, and a fountain drink for $12.87. After tax it came to around $14. It was pricy but it's so worth it. What did I order, you ask? Half a stinger sub with fries! The stinger sub is chopped steak with chopped chicken fingers! It came with my choice of peppers (I chose green!) and lettuce, tomato, onion, oil, mayo, and either a plain, sesame, or wheat roll. (I had lettuce, tomato, onion, oil, and mayo added and I chose a sesame roll.) It was the probably the best stinger sub I've ever had and was well worth the price. The fries were perfect too. They weren't greasy at all and they were perfectly crispy. I wish it came with even more of the wonderful fries, but I probably shouldn't be greedy. Also, I met the owner and both he and the other workers have great customer service skills. The place is clean with cool decor. I love the buffaloes around Buffalo and this place has one!!! They've apparently been in business since 1984. I still can't believe this is the first time that I've been here. I will definitely return soon! read more

Everything here is awesome! Change over the years much, we'll done. Pats has been here forever and let's keep it going. Highly recommend over any place in Lackawanna/South Buffalo. read more

Amazing stinger sub! Perfect combo of steak, chicken finger and melted cheese on a toasted sesame seed roll. Cajun fries were seasoned well and crispy! Not fresh cut but definitely hit the spot. The price cannot be beat for such a great sub! read more

You can tell they care about the food they create here. Great variety in their sub options, great service, and great food. The steak sub was one of the best I've had. Great place for any type of sub you can think of. read more

Pat's always has good subs and the staff is always friendly. One of my favorites is the chopped Cajun Chicken sub. Occasionally I'll get the salad. Plenty of TVs and sports memorabilia. read more

Pat's Submarines - Chicken Wings Near Me - Lackawanna, New York

Came in for lunch one day, ordered a chicken finger sub and fries with a side of gravy at the counter and sat down with my drink. My plate was promptly brought to my table and everything was delicious! The fingers were crispy and covered in hot sauce, the fries were good and I can't say anything negative about the whole experience. I was in and out within a half hour and back to work. I'm glad I decided to get lunch here instead of going to a fast food joint. If you're in the area check them out! You won't be disappointed. read more

Just ordered a sub for 8.99. Ordered it with onions on half. Charged us for two half subs at 5.99 each. For getting onions on half? Really? I've been getting a sub for lunch here every other week for I don't know how long. I'll find somewhere else to eat. read more

My boyfriend and I started going here about a year Ago when we moved to the area and have been hooked since. I've tried the shrimp dinner, several different subs, their tacos, chicken fingers and their very fresh coleslaw is to die for. All prepared amazingly. The guy that I'm assuming owns it shows up for work everyday except Sunday's when they are close, great conversationalist and remembers his customers and what they order. (We order big sides of coleslaw) Also they sell homemade sour fruit strips that are delicious. They are a dollar a piece but I always grab two packs when I go in. Definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

I used frequent this place about 15 yrs ago. After moving back, I had to get a Fat Pat sub. I was the only person in restaurant at 2pm. Sub ingredients were of good quality but the size of the sandwich was less than adequate. Owner asked how it was and got instant attitude. Buffalo has far too many good sub shops to go back here. read more

I love Pat's. However, lately they seem to close whenever they want and it sucks. The last 2 Mondays we wanted to order a couple subs around 6 and it says they close at 7 but no one was there or answered the phone. Such a shame because we live close and the food is good. Disappointing read more

Been going to this place 4 years, up until yesterday. My wife and I went to order a couple of subs (expensive by the way). After waiting at the counter for @ least 5 mins. Someone came out and said "he won't make your subs if you're getting steak subs because you are too fussy". "He" is the owner of this terrible place. The place had only 5 people in it and they were already eating so I don't think time was an issue. The issue is that he serves an inferior product at a increased price and doesn't want to be held accountable. Apparently he wants to make what he thinks is easier to make. Not what the customer wants. The fact that he couldn't come up and talk to me speaks volumes of lack of character and respect for life long customer. My recommendation of this restaurant would be to stay as far away as possible. WE WILL NEVER BE BACK read more

Very overpriced subs but when they charge you $3 for tap water that's just ridiculous. They also forget to give you the special prize or free pop when you order 3 subs. I have given them too many chances I was at my last straw yesterday. They are very dishonest and take advantage of customers. Very miserable staff it's sad if this is really a family owned business because they are all rude crooks. read more

Great food. The subs are top notch and the BBQ fingers blow my mind. One problem: price. Extremely pricey for a sub place, they used to be more affordable but they keep jacking their prices every few months it seems. The prices are the reason I don't go there nearly as much as I used to. read more

Its very rare for a sub to make your mouth water, but these subs are so amazing you are counting down the minutes until you can devoure one! Best sub i ever had and it was a turkey on whole wheat! It has the perfect amount of each ingredient and is def mad eby a master! read more

I love this place. They make the best steak and garlic sub. The service is hands down the best around. They make you feel like family. But the food, OMG there is not one thing on the menu that is bad. Stop in you won't regret it. read more

This place sucks. The food was terrible and the service was unacceptable. The owner refused to fix my order even though they made it incorrectly. The owner was also gossiping about women and drinking while my children and I were waiting for our order. I will never take my family here again and will never refer anyone to this place of business. Normally local owned Businesses are fantastic-- this was is a big let down, food and service wise. read more

A perfect example of you get what you pay for. I always get the Cajun chicken sub here. Two nice sized chick breasts w a greats sauce, hands down my favorite sub in the area. The prices are a bit higher than some of the competition in the area but it's worth the extra buck. Bring cash bc they don't take cards here, there is an ATM though. Very large menu will give you many options. Nice quaint atmosphere def worth a try, you'll like it. read more

Very overpriced. They are charging restaurant prices for a greasy pizzeria. Tacos are really good but almost 10 dollars. You may as well go out for that money. Person answering the phone was very rude. refused to deliver a 10 dollar order a quarter mile away. read more
