It's been a while since I've been to this location, but I did always like their subs. I can't speak much about their ambiance how it was to sit down and eat because I always got my subs to go. A lot of people complain about their food, but I'm not sure why because all my experiences were great. I never experienced staff that were bad... I'd say perhaps I just hit them on good days but I went so many times and didn't have a bad experience, I'm not exactly sure what the complainers were going on about. The next time I get a sub from there I'll update the review and post a pic. read more

Place is much better than it used to be, friendly staff and great food. Peaceful atmosphere.

Do you have to pay extra for friendly service or a clean restaurant? The seats were falling apart and the help could barely string a sentence together I cannot believe what low standards y'all have. read more

I ordered a #19 and and Italian via Door Dash for work and the order was correct, freshly made and arrived quickly.

Best subs in Gastonia! Love the wheat bread option. I only wish they had Coke instead of Pepsi.

My grilled chicken sandwich was very good. However, my husband had a grilled chicken salad. There were four squares of chicken and some cheese. He asked for no tomatoes. The salad was so small for $15. We used Door Dash. No napkins and my sandwich was tossed around in the bag. Will definitely rethink this place for lunch. read more

Best Cuban sandwich in town, I ordered mine all the way with chips and a sweet. Plan to come back when I am in a mood for sandwich. Plenty of parking and sitting area is big. read more

The food here is absolutely delicious, I am completely 100% focused on the food in this location, they have always had a amazin, Food, and the atmosphere has always been fantastic It's more of an opportunity just to sit down and chill and relax get a quick order and enjoy every moment of the food that you take. The staff has always been fantastic, they have hired a few new people that have no personalities now, or they are more. What do you want? Get out of here. So that's why I didn't give a full five stars, because I'm a little confused, whether or not these people are going to last, or if the management actually going to put their foot down and make them actually have a personality. read more

This location supposed to close at 8pm. Despite 8pm being posted online and on their door, they stop serving before 8pm. I have gone there several times with the doors open and open sign on only to be told that they are closed. When I asked the staff what time they close, they said 8pm. I told them it's not 8pm. The staff said we already put everything up. If this is the case this location should post the correct time they stop serving food. Sincerely, A loyal Substation II customer since 1995 read more

If you want a great sub with excellent customer service, this is the place. The staff is awesome and so polite.

Great people Great Subs!! Please be patient with the parking situation, this place is awesome read more

Good sandwich. I was hesitant based on appearance from outside, in an old unassuming strip center. Sanitation was 97. Super cheap subs... Had the Italian for under $5 (small size). Workers were all friendly and attentive. Clean interior. I would be back if ever on that side of town. read more

Although this place doesn't look like much their subs and salads are really good. I've always had great customer service here and like subway you tell them what you want as they are making it fresh in front of you. It can get really busy at times but they seem to work pretty fast and efficiently. The salads are big enough for two people (or two meals) and reasonably priced. read more

This has always been my favorite sub place in town. Since the place is under a new owner, the customer service in this place is just terrible lately. Take your business where it will be appreciated, I know I will! read more

Service isn't the fastest but quality is key, great food, amazing cookies. Better place than subway

Could eat here everyday!! Fresh ingredients. Establishment always clean. Never had any issues. They even offer a after 4 special, 2 large subs with a tea. read more

Very good subs. Fresh cut meat. And the bread is very good. Service is very prompt and the employees are very friendly. You will never go back to Subway after you try these subs. read more

First time ever at this place including location l. To find a NY style shop in the south was awesome. I looked at the pictures and lots of meat, and I saw the prices and figured I would give it a try. Walking up to the place it's nothing pretty but it's clean ! Walking in, looks clean and smells clean. Everyone is extremely friendly and treats you like a regular. Service is fast, and I got the daily special for 5.39 which is a half sub, chips and drink and a side pickle. Where else do you find deals like that these days ? Especially in Charlotte they price gauge the heck out of people for food that is supposed to be cheap. The sandwhich was a good size, plenty of meat. Veggies are fresh, I'll admit she was a bit heavy on the mayo and mustard( probably a southern thing lol) but no complaints. It was a delicious sub and tasted fresh. The break taste like a NY style roll. I hope to find more of these places popping up and giving people a taste of NY and the lifestyle in Charlotte. read more

Sub Station II - a sub sandwich cut in half - Sandwiches Near Me - Gastonia, North Carolina

We decided to try sub station on Monday, weren't quite ready to cook at home. Unfortunately what we found was a restaurant in total disarray. In order to try to meet the social distancing rules they were rerouting customers all around the store. Don't get me wrong, I have been a customer since they opened and plan to be for the distant future, but they need to rework their thought process especially when they are really busy. Because they were busy, they were running around and halfway putting sandwiches together. I ordered a 19 all the way and there were several items missing from my sandwich. In the end, missed the mark for me. Hopefully will be better in the future. read more

Placed an order over the phone, when I receive my sandwich it was not correct. My flatbread sandwich had not been grilled like I asked or the onions had not been grilled well done like I asked. I was told the only way they could help me was if I bring my sandwich back. I explained to her that I was on my lunch break so I could not bring it back and I was told there was nothing they could do. I purchased substation often and so does my family, I was very disappointed. I will not be returning to a place that has no regard for the inconvenience they put the customer in when they mess up! I will go hungry on my lunch break so that I'm able to return the sandwich for a refund and they will not get my money anymore. read more

Not your average sub place! Sometimes I come for the food and sometimes I come for the guest service! Every single time we eat here the food is fresh and delicious. Not one time have we left disappointed. The meatball sub has been our favorite for years. The salads are tasty and a great value. You must give them a try for sure! Oh I almost forgot they have the absolute best cookies in the world! read more

Sub Station II in Gastonia, NC is well worth stopping by if you're in the mood for a fresh sub, be it hot or cold. But if you don't want a sub, you can always get a delicious sandwich such as their Pastrami on rye (or on an onion roll), or their traditional Reuben w/swiss and sauerkraut, etc. The menu is quite large but, thankfully, is posted online. This makes it convenient for me to pull the menu up ahead of time so I'm not taking a half hour in trying to figure out what I want to eat once we get down there. (I already spent that time in front of my computer. Lol.) The meat and cheese are cut only after your order has been taken. This way, the flavors stay strong, and nothing dries out while sitting in a refrigerated case.. Plus, the lettuce, tomatoes, and onions are always fresh...ripe...and delicious! While I'm not crazy about oil, vinegar, and oregano on my subs/sandwiches, it's available for all of you who absolutely love those things. :) Oh...and let's not forget the mayo, salt & pepper, and those wonderful jalapenos! THOSE items ALWAYS have a place on my subs! Lol, Almost forgot: with each sub we've ordered so far, we have always received 3 good-size dill pickle spears that taste HOMEMADE. Now, I doubt they are homemade but they sure TASTE like it...VERY enjoyable! Someday I might remember to ask them about those pickles! :) And if you're not in the mood for subs or sandwiches, there's also salads and soup to choose from. If you find yourself visiting the Charlotte/Gastonia/Kings Mountain/Shelby area of North Carolina, swing by the Sub Station II at 802 E. Franklin Blvd in Gastonia, and treat yourself to something delicious and hot...or cold...and traditional...or YOUR way...and mild...or spicy...and hearty...or light. The one thing you WON'T have to make a choice about is QUALITY. It WILL be there! read more

This place is awesome. Prices are good, food is good, serving portions are good. These people are not stingy on toppings, and that keeps me coming back. Everyone has a very pleasant attitude, and they seem to really care about you. Highly recommend this place! Plus its been here for over 30 years! Gotta be doing something right.... read more

Sub Station II - Lunch! - Sandwiches Near Me - Gastonia, North Carolina

Great sub. We got it catered at our commercial shoot yesterday and I was blown away by the flavors. Soft and chewy bread with a nice helping of meats, veggies and cheese. Added some olive oil and vinegar and lunch was all set once I added in some Wavy hickory BBQ Lays. Also they have amazing pickles. Nice portions! read more

Very good food always nice people. Just there is a lot of smoking on the outer side that's makes it look bad But that's it super good food.

We got two sub sandwiches that were both fantastic. The meat and cheese are sliced fresh to order and the portions are gigantic. Everything was fresh and really good. Well worth the money spent. Will definitely go back. read more

I love this place. I have went there since I was a child. Always clean and fresh looking. Subs are made to order,they even cut the meat. My favorite us num 19. The sweet tea is also great. The suns are kind of messy. But hey that is what makes them great. If you try and go at lunch time during the week it is hard to find parking and the line is long read more

If you are looking for a great sub oh, this is definitely the place for you. The staff is always friendly. And most importantly their subs are the best in all of Gaffney South Carolina. read more

I would love to give 5 stars bui just cant,,"it's a sub shop" but by far my favorite,,I have eaten at many Sub Station 2 this one I really liked and it was the cheapest combo I have ever gotten at Sun Station 2 I had a #1 $5.90 i usually pay close to 8 at others,, anyway really good place to eat staff was great. read more

This is a good clean sub shop. The people are friendly and will fix your sub anyway you want it. The ingredients are a much higher quality than Subway. My only complaint is that they use chopped onions instead of sliced onions. Chopped onions belong on a Hot dog, not a sub sandwich. read more

Salads and subs always fresh and everyone is very nice when providing services. Great location not far from my house. The quality in my opinion is much better than subway. Will continue to be a customer. read more

I love Sub Station. You really get the down-home feeling when you come here. The staff are all so very helpful and sweet. I usually get the club which is SO good. If you're a sweet tea fan, they have REALLY good sweet tea. I also need to mention how fast they are. Everytime I come here, you hardly have to wait at all.... even if their line is pretty big. read more

Great subs and salads. Staff and owner very attentive. Awesome ice tea.

Alltime favorite sub joint. Plenty of meat and good fixins. Old school subs and been consistent since I first discovered them in the 1970s
