I loved this place and I was super excited to introduce it to my girl friend until she found hair in her sandwich and a hair in the baked potato. The hair was blonde and there was only one blonde girl working there at the time of my visit. 10/17/15 That lady sheds worse then a freakin dog. Put a goddamn hair net on her or get her the hell out of the kitchen. read more

Spuds are definitely a must i got the bacon cheddar n sour cream and the subs are good too. I got tuna to pair with jalapeño chips. Good mix. Little bit pricey but not so bad because its worth it read more

I've lived in Riverside for nearly ten years, and went to this place for the first time about a week ago. And now I'm kicking myself. Allow me to elaborate further. I've lived in Riverside for nearly ten years, including one year by campus, and one year up the hill from this shopping center...and still never ate here. Regrets, I've had a few. We had the taco potato and the chicken pesto sandwich, based on the very sweet cashier's recommendations, and both were awesome. Awesome enough that we were practically sobbing into our potatoes over not having eaten there sooner. The potatoes were good, the ingredients plentiful, and everything was cooked to suit. Maybe we weren't actually crying into our potatoes, but we've pretty much brought this place up as a meal option for every meal since then. The downside, and this seems to be their only one, is their hours. Not open after 3 on Saturdays, closed Sundays, and only open until 7 on weeknights. Since we live closer to downtown these days, you couldn't pay me to get on the 60/215 eastbound before 7 typically. But for potatoes, I may well make the sacrifice occasionally. After all, I have a lot of lost time to make up for. read more

Absolutely love this place! The breakfast wraps are amazing, and the sandwiches are very delicious! Check them out! read more

Top food place to eat. Friendly associates and owner. I usually get the Asian chicken salad but they also have a variety of choices

Place has gone pretty downhill. Ordered a Turkey sub with avacado and bacon and got pretty much a lettuce sandwich. Didn't even get turkey on it the first time and had to send it back. What I got after that was one slice of turkey on the whole thing which was so thin I could see through it almost as easily as glass. Don't remember it being this bad a few years ago. read more

This review is long overdue. I came in last month and ordered a baked potato with broccoli and cheese, steak sandwich, and kids turkey sandwich. Everything was delicious but my favorite was the potato. It was big and full of broccoli cheese goodness. I will definitely be coming back when I'm in the area. The hubby ate the steak sandwich and said it was good too. My sons kids meal was great as well. It came with the sandwich, chips and a drink. Great value for the amount of food you get. I will select this sandwich shop over any subway or Quiznos read more

The customer service was good, the food was just flavorless and the salad I got was not fresh. Place was clean and very nice though.

This is a fantastic place to grab lunch or a quick bite to eat. The gentleman that works the counter has exceptional customer service skills, not to mention their sandwiches are top notch. The roast beef with au jus and the tuna melt are a couple of my favorites. Place is clean and well kept. Great lunch spot! read more

A bit pricey but well worth it as the ingredients used a fresh and dare I say top notch. I've only every had the chicken pesto sandwich the few times I've gone and would probably be a regular if I lived closer. The staff are super friendly. read more

This place is only minutes from my place. I prefer going here over the Subway that is in the same shopping center. There are a wide variety of sandwiches available. Additionally, they have salads, stuffed potatoes and much more. They always have a few lunch specials to choose from and it is reasonably priced. On a warm summer day I like to sit outside at one of the tables under the shade and enjoy the passing traffic while enjoying a good sandwich. The service is always great and friendly. I am regular there so the owner is pretty cool and we chat it up a bit. So friendly and always makes sure I have everything I came for and that I was satisfied. She even makes recommendations for new stuff that seems to be popular. They are always adding to the menu. If I am in the mood for a salad, the Chinese Chicken Salad is so refreshing and you can get the dressing on the side, which I prefer. There is indoor seating but not much in the way of any formal dining or waiter service, much like any other sandwich shop, it is a quick in and out type of place. This makes it good for that quick lunch you are trying to squeeze in while going to the bank next door or stopping at the grocery store on your way home. Support your local restaurants!!! read more

Decided to have lunch here with my friends. I am vegetarian so I ordered a vegetarian sub with no mayo, oil, and vinegar. It was around $8.00 for 12 inches. The customer service here is really nice. The young lady that helped us was extremely patient even through we were so indecisive and we asked millions of questions. The only thing is that something was missing... It just seemed like a sandwich that I can easily make. All our subs were missing something. There was nothing special. The bread was okay the sauces were okay. I shall try the salads next time because they sound really good but otherwise not really impressed... read more

subs & Spuds is a little place that shares a wall with bank of america. Its near work so I gave it a try. I ordered a philly cheesesteak and pasta salad. The Philly was decent. It wasn't memorable. It tasted on par with phillys best. It was actually pretty small for the price. 3/5 Pasta Salad was a little pasty for my taste. 2/5 They were extremely friendly and had a lot of usuals. Id come back to try the pesto chicken next time. read more

Subs and spuds has sandwiches. And baked potatoes. The sandwiches are on some pretty disappointing bread with a soft crust that gives in at the slightest bit of pressure, and there are only white and wheat available. In between the bread is pretty standard fare. The potatoes are not bad, though. They don't exactly blow me away, but I suppose they'll do if you just have to have a baked potato with a bunch of toppings. I would like to like this place more though, because they have such a large menu. Their salads look pretty good, and the prices aren't bad. I also want to like this place more because all of the employees are super friendly and nice. But in the end, I just can't like it that much. read more

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. The first time I came was a while back when it was owned by an Asian couple. It was recommended by a friend who liked their oriental chicken salad very much. I felt the salad was mediocre but I blamed it on the fact that I'm not a big fan of salads in general. Fast forward to a year or so later; I had an odd craving for an Asian chicken salad and was around canyon crest. I decided to drop by Subs & Spuds. The place had signs up about new management. I walked in and was immediately greeted by a friendly lady at the register. I could see more people working in the back and I assumed that the Asian couple sold the store to this family. I got my chicken salad and took a bite. !!!! It was absolutely amazing! The chicken breast is great (they make it every night before), and the leaves are always freshly washed and cut right after you order. The sesame dressing for the salad is delicious as well. Their wonton strips are always crunchy and not soggy or stale. I usually have that on the side because it's a bit fattening. I still rarely eat salads as a meal but this is the only one I'll eat. After visiting so often, the family in the shop pretty much always knew my order, how I liked the wonton strips on the side, and how much dressing i liked. They're the most friendly family I've ever met. I've never felt unwelcome or left unsatisfied from the store. Sometimes they throw in a free iced tea with my order. You can always tell they're genuinely happy to feed you (haha). I made it a point to visit them at least weekly to have a salad. I've had their sandwiches and potatoes before and they are pretty good as well. I wouldn't say it's my favorite but my boyfriend loves their giant potatoes and their generous toppings. The sandwiches are always packed with the freshest ingredients as well. They've kept most of the menu from the previous owners but have added a lot of personal touches to the items to make them better. The dressings and soups are homemade as well and they put a lot of heart into what they make. I know they also love customer input on their food so customer satisfaction is their top priority. Also, the tables and floors are always kept clean. I've moved away from Riverside since then, but I crave their salads all the time. Go visit this place and support the mom and pop shops. It's a small place but you always feel right at home. You definitely get what you pay for in service and freshness. read more

Actually a pretty nice place to eat, it has a very nice "mom and pop" type feel to it. Definitely a small business with local people who are pretty polite and friendly. There's indoor and outdoor seating and it's right next to Bank of America. Their sandwiches are filling, I know to not commit to the full sandwich and stick to their half a sandwich. Definitely should scope out the menu first to see their meal deals and the price differences between sizes! read more

Been here twice for lunch and breakfast both times they have been on point with good service and fast fresh food.. I've ordered a stuffed potato very fulfilling! Lots of flavors. For breakfast I got French toast omelette and a breakfast sandwich. GREAT! 13$ for all the food perfect. Student discounts $_$ read more

Subs & Spuds - Sandwiches Near Me - Riverside, California

This is a local business in the Canyon Crest Town Center and right next to Bank of America, literally adjacent. I like that it's a local business and they make everything fresh to order: subs (cold or hot), wraps, variety of stuffed potatoes, and salads. There are combo specials and they have a small breakfast menu now that you can enjoy. It's a small place, about 10-15 tables inside and 2-3 outside. Family owned and operated, gotta love it. Prices are decent, food is good, service friendly and quick. I prefer going here to grab a quick sandwich than a chain establishment nearby. read more

Came for the potatoes but was disappointed. Had the broccoli cheddar potato and my friend had the chili and cheese potato. I was expecting creamy cheesy potato but got a dry potato with a little melted cheddar over a few broccoli florets. I had them add chicken for more flavor. My daughter had the potato soup but it was more like a milk chowder broth with chunks of veggies. She refused to eat it. She's used to potato soup from Outback Steakhouse. The chili one was so greasy and my friend wasn't thrilled with the flavor. Could've made better ones at home. Unfortunately I won't be back. read more

See all

Tried it for the first time today, and it was delicious! My boyfriend and I had just wanted to split something. We ended up getting a Lunch Special: Combo B. This included a Sub, potato salad (or pasta salad, you choose) and a drink. We decided to try Turkey and Cheese. You can't go wrong with that. It totalled to about $8. Which was a good price. We did wait for a bit for our food to come, but there was only one person making it so it was fine. The sandwich was delicious! The potato salad, interesting. I liked it all. And it filled my boyfriend and I up! I'd go back and try their baked potatoes...everyone's raving about them! read more

I LOOOVE this place! The food is so fresh and delicious, and the service is great. My favorite is the Oriental Chicken Salad. My only problem has been that I can only eat half of it, so need to cart the other half with me till I can get it home. But, they have solved that problem for me; they now have a half size in a bowl that is perfect. They'll even put that on a plate for you, if you prefer. Everyone I have come here with raves about their sandwiches with oh-so-good meat, but my heart will always be with their salad. This restaurant is very small in size, but as they say "good things come in small packages!" read more

Went here for breakfast. I loved that they will make to order items on the menu. The cost you pay is well worth the quality and quantity of the food given! Everything is freshly made. I had a veggie omelet, adding bacon, ham, and avocado. It was amazing! read more

My boyfriend and I absolutely love this place! This was our second time dining there and I'm already anticipating our next visit. The service is impeccable, everyone is so kind and welcoming. They even recognized us from our first visit (over a month ago!) We both ordered the gyro sandwich with the avgolemeno soup. Perfect for any kind of weather. This is definitely on our recommendation list!! read more

Subs & Spuds - Gyro sandwich with tzatziki sauce, greek salad, and avgolemeno soup - Sandwiches Near Me - Riverside, California

We tried this place for dinner after recently moving to Canyon Crest and this place is delicious! We ordered the bacon, cheese & sour cream stuffed baked potatoes, a turkey avocado sub, & a grilled chicken wrap. The potatoes were amazing! They're huge and you get the perfect potato/toppings ratio with every bite. Seriously, we should've just ordered those for dinner because it was sooooo much! It works out though since we're saving our subs for lunch at work tomorrow. Definitely will be back here again and I can't wait to try their breakfast items. I highly recommend this place if you're in the area. read more

My favorite is the Royal Potato (baked potato with turkey, ham, mushrooms, cheese, butter and sour cream). So good! My mom and I split a combo that comes with a 6" sub and the Royal potato. It's $8.95 and it fills us both up. Every sandwich we've tried is fantastic - especially the Reuben (my honey's favorite). They also have a certificate from Service Bulldogs, and while I don't know why, this makes me love Subs and Spuds even more. read more

Love this place! So many options of baked potatoes and sandwiches...how can you not love it! Staff is super friendly and outgoing. They know their regulars and treat them so well. My favorites are the oriental chicken wrap, BLAT wrap, and BBQ chicken potato. read more

This place is SO good! I have gotten the chicken pesto sandwich and roast beef and cheese potato. The roast beef is layered on top with the melted cheese. The potato is baked to the point where it just literally melts in your mouth. Their food is just the right portion. The ratio of each item is just the right amount so one ingredient isn't overpowering another. The service is super friendly. The atmosphere of the restaurant is usually quiet and casual. So you can read a book/study there if you wanted to. Definitely recommend this place :) read more

Stumbled upon greatness!!!!! Can't wait till I'm hungry again!!! Looking forward to trying the royal delight potato read more

Subs & Spuds - Soooo bomb - Sandwiches Near Me - Riverside, California

This food is sub par. It looks good from their pictures that they post but honestly they're really only good about potatoes. The people working there are nice though! I had the breakfast wrap with avocado. They're slightly dishonest because they charged me a dollar for avocado when it clearly states it's 75 cents. I'm not cheap but the moral behind the story is that they could have charged me a dollar instead of dishonestly pricing it at 75 cents. As for the actual breakfast there was barely any avocado, meat, and surprisingly even eggs! Unfortunately it was mostly potatoes. If you're into a starch packed meal then go for it!!! Just letting you know from amount of ingredients they put in their product, they will receive more than half of what you pay!! Good luck eating here!!!! read more

I've past this place hundreds of times and finally tried it. I was torn between a 3/4 and am willing to come back to see if they can earn a higher mark. I ordered a Philly cheesesteak and my standards are pretty high so this might not be a fair test. To their credit the bread was great and there was plenty of substance to the sandwich, it just didn't have the "it" factor to properly call it Philly cheesesteak. The meat not sliced thin enough and the yellow American cheese should be white. I thought this was a franchise but it had that hometown feel. Will defiantly come back and try again. read more

I used to come here many, many years ago when I lived in Canyon Crest. This is still the only place you can get stuffed potatoes in Riverside and they are good. Good salads too. Clean shop and good food at a good price!!!! read more

We had the best lunch at this place for under $20! My husband had the large Cuban sandwich. I had the small one and a drink. We shared a large potato salad and it was all so delicious!! My husband said he wished his stomach was bigger so he could eat two of them! We will definitely be returning!! read more

I love love love this place. They're always super friendly and always accommodating for those of us that have 'difficult' orders ;) I recommend the veggie sandwich on sourdough (yes, despite some reviews, there are different kinds of breads, but you need to ASK!), or the Chinese Chicken Salad (simple, yes, but the dressing is fantastic!). Yes, they charge for credit cards and for those that complain about it: do some research, it costs THEM money because you refuse to carry cash. So those that use cards: plan ahead, bring cash. Not just here, everywhere! Other than that, friendly atmosphere, great food, homey setting and great staff! I take friends here all the time and they're never disappointed. Be careful around lunch time or weekends-- they're busy and you're service can sometimes take a longer amount of time than anticipated. read more

Great atmosphere. Food here is great! The only problem was the time frames they are open. I got a Jumbo potato which had the works on it and it was delicious and it was huge I could not finish it!!! My wife had the anti pasta salad and she liked it with ranch. She also had a broccoli cheese potato as well and liked it. We had a banana bread slice but it seemed to lack something but it was ok (I bake so my statement here is bias probably). read more

Subs & Spuds - Jumbo Potato with the works, anti pasta salad, and broccoli potato. - Sandwiches Near Me - Riverside, California

My absolute favorite sandwich shop in riverside!! Staff is simply amazing and the food is beyond compare!!

My favorite local family owned lunch spot. Everyone is always friendly and wanting to ensure that their guests are well taken care of. They have done an amazing job making sure that we still feel very welcomed during this trying time. The sandwiches are always perfect and the spuds are the best around. read more

I love this place!!! The staff is always so nice. I'm never disappointed & btw, their Cuban Sandwich is delicious!

We've lived in Canyon Crest for over 30 years and this is the first time we tried Subs & Spuds. It was good! Baked potatoes are huge and cooked perfectly. Sandwiches were good too. It's very plain inside but staff is friendly and it is a place worth trying. We'll be back! read more

I ordered the Jumbo Potato with the works and it was delicious. It came with potatoes (obviously), chili, bacon, ham, mushrooms and was topped with cheese, sour cream, and broccoli. It was enough to share between two people! The cashier was also sweet and very welcoming. I will definitely be returning in the near future. read more

Came here for lunch today with a friend. Got a good recommendation from the worker and food was pretty solid. My only gripe would be the potatoes were so hot I couldn't eat it for a bit! read more
