Try the Auntie M and have it grilled. Absolutely the best sandwich. All fresh indedients on an excellent bun.

My definition of a perfect sub sandwich. The bread is baked there, perfectly pillowy and chewy and fluffy, all the ingredients are fresh and high quality, and it's your classic sandwich with no weirdo sauces or relishes or extra ingredients that don't aren't necessary. I ordered the turkey and Swiss, got a bag of lays and piled them into the sandwich for that nostalgic crunch. Also appreciate the friendly service and good prices. If you're a sandwich purist like me, you'll love this place!! read more

Phil's 1500 Subs - Turkey and Swiss - Delis Near Me - Forest Grove, Oregon

We were in the area after spending the morning at Hagg Lake and needed some lunch. We were thankful to find Phil's! The inside is pretty basic, as is the menu, but they do have specials on the board. They are cash only, so be prepared for that. The lady at the cash register was friendly and prepared to answer any question we had, she even guessed that we would be splitting our sub and offered to put it on separate plates for us. My daughter and I decided to split the large Turkey, Avocado, and Cheese. Each cold sub comes with your choice of White, Wheat, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Cheese, Mayo, Oil & Vinegar & Seasoning. We went with white bread and all the toppings. You definitely want to split the large, it's 4 large pieces, so basically 2 full sized subs at other places. You can tell that they make their own bread, it's delicious. The perfect crust and texture. Our sub was packed to the brim with everything you'd want in a good sub. Everything was fresh and there was a good amount of toppings and meat. I would definitely come back again if we were in the area. read more

Phil's 1500 Subs - Large Turkey, bacon, avocado - Delis Near Me - Forest Grove, Oregon

Soooo dirty and gross. The walls have old pictures that are caked in dust and grime. The trash can had a flat lid on it that was soooo dirty and you had to lift it to throw away trash. Sandwiches are bland, plain and expensive. $15.50 for a large with hardly any meat on it. French dip wasn't warm enough to melt the cheese and the au jus had a layer of unmelted fat on top. I would never go back. read more

If you're not afraid to get messy, this braised pork special with coleslaw, frank's sauce, jalapeños, and pineapple is the bomb. The only bad thing about this sandwich is it's not on the regular menu and it will be gone after June. As always, though the food was top rung as was the service. read more

I have been looking for a good sandwich shop since I moved out to the country and little did I know this gem was right under my nose! I finally stopped in today and they did not disappoint. Good prices, giant tasty subs - what more can you ask for. read more

Big tasty sandwiches, love the shredded lettuce and many kinds of veggies and meats and some weekday daily specials and soups and they do a punch card for you with your purchase. Good seating area and place for kids activities. ATM machine for you to get cash since it's cash only store. Parking is little hard to get to the store and not much to handicapped parking. Thanks to the wonderful staff that make the great sandwiches and the great young lady that helps with the order on the phone. read more

It always starts off with a jingle of the door bells as I walk in and take a deep sniff of fresh tasty air. Then I lumber over to the ATM machine because they only take cash. I always get the roast beef, BBQ sauce and with Roast beef, cooked with extra onion and all veggies. My girlfriend, well I order her turkey or chicken and her favorite veggies. They make that bread fresh every day and roast that beef as well. Dam best sandwich I have had and I'm not just saying that. I've had Firehouse, Quiznos, Subway, Jimmy Johns, Big Town Hero, and a handful of mom-and-pop places around the 48 states ( as a truck driver) and let me tell you, this place by far will leave you feeling happy and quite full each time. read more

We stayed at the Grand Lodge and read reviews about the sandwiches here and yep, 10/10!! So good we got one and got one on the way home! Absolutely fantastic. I could put cold butter on that bread and it'd be the best. read more

Great food, reasonable portions for the cost and reasonable service, and consistently tastes fresh. It's still bananas to me there is no card or digital option to pay for food, I'm sorry. Has a comfy hometown feel. read more

Great service and always fresh ingredients. A staple of FG for many years. Love to get the meatball sub. Very good sauce and good layer of cheese!!! read more

Always good fresh food to order. Bread is wonderful and all the combinations are delicious. Phil's is a regular stop at too late to cook dinner. Besides the sandwich's are better than homemade! read more

Great deli subs...much better than Subway. Local owned and operated...same owner as Black Dog restaurant...

Ordered the #1200 chicken breast filet and #1400 dip of France. Everything about it was good! Staff were also friendly! . They only accept cash but they have an ATM. read more

There are two words that set Phil's apart from basically any sandwich shop west of the tunnels that doesn't have a Jersey Mike's logo on it: "Choice of." That may not seem like an important clause, but in the lackluster world of Oregon sandwiches--especially those containing traditional, marbled, fatty Italian meats--it sets both expectations and tone. I get that Phil's is a college-town sub shop that caters to a high student metabolism. You don't go slinging seven-pound sandwiches and putting faces on the wall of fame or shame if you aren't having at least a little fun with your position near campus. But I've seen places out here with red-white-and-green flags and all the right vowels in their name make similar claims about quality that Phil's makes... but fall flat on their 'Medigan faces trying to please the vanilla palates of the Western metro. Phil's is having none of that. Instead, the options are in your hands: "Choice of White, Wheat, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Cheese, Mayo, Oil & Vinegar & Seasoning." Their house-made rolls are a godsend, as the sponges available around here often fail to hold up to the sandwich meats and condiments thrown at them. Phil's actually puts the lettuce through the slicer and gets the thin Easter-basket-style strings of iceberg that form the foundation of great sandwiches back east. They slice the tomatoes thin to leave room for the stars of the sandwich. They don't impose the wrong cheeses on you (there are sandwich and coffee shops out here that consider White American a perfectly acceptable substitute for both provolone and Swiss... none of which taste anything like each other). Most importantly, mayonnaise is not a default. They know that and their customers know that. When your meat selections feature ham, pepperoni, cotto, capicolla (!) and Genoa salami, they're aware that the meats provide the fat content while oil, vinegar and a bit of oregano season the toppings and soften the interior of the bread a bit. This is not hard, though Phil's contemporaries make it seem like forced labor. There's also the matter of "available upon request." Mustard and horseradish can be excellent with roast beef and pastrami, but should by no means be defaults. Similarly, hot peppers and onions can liven up an Italian sub, but are by no means necessary additions. I really like to think I can still go to town on a large three meats and cheese, but this place opened when I was in middle school and was probably better off trying to serve me that size sandwich then. Today, I'll take a small with a bag of chips and a drink and be on my way. I'm working my way up to a Warhead, and would probably love the meatball sandwich if I could toss some provolone on it, but Phil's gives me hope. I'd visit their sibling establishment Black Dog if it didn't break my rule against bars in highway strip malls. read more

Last time we bought sandwiches one was soggy and the other was burnt and short on cream cheese. 1/8 of a teaspoon is chintzy. The bread was burnt on the edges. They refused to refund or credit us. The employees also have bad attitudes. They don't care. I went to Phil's in the 90s when I lived in Forest Grove. The sandwiches were great! Now they just don't care. We'll never go back there again! Too bad this app wants stars. Phil's doesn't deserve any. read more

DISCLAIMER: local food expert The sub was ok. The place is cool and historic in forest grove. The family that owns Phil's is awesome. I'm not a huge sandwich guy so I wasn't too impressed but I'm sure some of the sandwiches are really great. Service read more

One of the best subs i have ever eaten i believe. Not fancy but seating good enough. Workers dont wear gloves when they make your sandwich if you care about that. read more

First tip, it's a cash only place. They do have an atm if you need it. I ordered a large and it was huge (3 separate pieces). I probably could have done just fine with a regular, but depends on how hungry you are. The bread to filling ratio was weighted to the bread side. As others have said, it was a bit on the dry side for my tastes. Definitely a nice crew working when I went in and there are a lot of regulars who come in. Maybe I have better luck next time. read more

Phil's 1500 Subs - Large sandwich - Delis Near Me - Forest Grove, Oregon

A friend told me about this place and insisted we go. I do love a good sub sandwich. - Staff was super friendly and helpful. The folks there really seem to enjoy their job. - Family owned since 1989. - Decor was basic but clean and in good condition. Lot of family-owned hometown feel which included lots of historic photos and newspaper clippings hung on the wall. - Prices are very reasonable for what you get. - Cash Only! (but they have an ATM inside the store) And now the food... I had a large #600 "Auntie M" - Ham, Turkey, Cotto, Capicolla, Genoa, Provolone, Cheddar & Swiss. It was delicious. The large is definitely large and comes cut into three sections. Everything tasted fresh and the bread was so good we bought two loaves to go so we could make our own sandwiches the next day. (A loaf of bread actually looks to be the size of two large subs.) They make their bread fresh every morning right there in the restaurant. It's so light and pillowy you could lay your head on it and take a nap. I ended up taking one of the sections back home with me and ate it later that night. It was still super yummy. My friend had a #400 - Turkey, Avocado & Cheese and loved it also. This place is a local treasure. I wish I lived closer to enjoy it more often. It's definitely been added to my list of places to go again because there are a few other sandwiches I was debating on vs. my #600 choice this visit. I can easily see stopping here on the way to/from the coast from my house in Beaverton. I'm also really curious about the 'Wall Of Fame' Challenge. I need to ask about that next time I go in. read more

Well I'm back in the area and had to stop by and get a sub. Wow I forgot how big the large is. Definitely enough for two people. This is a great spot. The people are so friendly and helpful. Seems like they have great specials as well. They open at 11 I got there as soon as they were opening the doors. My sandwich was made quickly and I was back to the job site to enjoy it in no time. Just know it's cash only however they do halve an atm inside. Go check them out. I'll be back again. Thanks Phil! read more

Easily the best sandwiches I've had in the state of Oregon. The owner Phil seems like a great guy and you can tell he cares about the food they're putting out. I would highly recommend this spot and have been showing up a couple times a week. The weekly specials are unique and honestly delicious. I tried their meatloaf sandwich, which turned out to be incredible and today they had a pot roast sandwich. That was very delicious. Can't go wrong here! read more

Best subs on the planet! Been coming here for years, Phil and Meryl are great people . Great service and food at reasonable prices. Great selection and never had a bad meal or service . One thing to add, they are cash or check only but there's an ATM inside. read more

Passing through the area and came across this place. The service was friendly and quick and the place was clean. My sandwich was fresh and had fresh Ingredients but it did not wow me. It was just a normal club Sandwich that I could have made at home. It is a cash only place as well. read more

Hands down one of the best sub shops I have ever had! Great selection. Cash only but if you use their ATM you get free soda or chips. It's a throwback to the 90's and 80's that will have you leaving with nostalgia. The soups and bread are made daily!!! Def a local gem!!! read more

My first time getting food after seeing it since we have been living here. Very good, and friendly staff!

My first time to grab a sandwich form Phil's. I have to say it was an amazing sandwich,bread is so fresh as well as the rest of the inside of the sandwich. I was treated very well and had a very nice conversation with the owners. I will definitely be back,and I will be trying out the rest of the menu! read more

Used to be great but sandwiches are now dry, bread is a bit stale (sometimes they are even out). Don't know what happened.

Phil's has been there for many years. The sandwich's are constantly good. Me thing to know is it's cash only

This place is really hit or miss. Sometimes you get an amazing sandwich and sometimes it's not worth eating. However the people making the sandwiches have always been friendly. read more

This place is great! We recently moved from Hillsboro to Forest Grove and were looking for a non chain Sandwich place. My family who work in FG for many years recommended this place.

We've only been here one other time and it wasn't bad with quite a few people in the place so we decided to stop by tonight for dinner. There was only one guy working and my boyfriend first said he saw him handle our money then not wash his hands before making the sandwiches (without gloves) for the customers before us. My bf then proceeded to go use the restroom which he commented looked like the place had never been cleaned when he got back. Longish wait (about 10-15min) for two sandwiches to go and when we get home my boyfriend discovers a huge what looks like to be pubic hair on his sandwhich as soon as he opens it!! Beyond gross, mine looked okay but of course I don't want to take my chances. $20+ for two tainted sandwiches we definitely won't be back... read more
