"Freshness in every bite. Please allow a selection for extra meat. There was hardly any meat on the sub. If this is the required amount you put on the sub perhaps upper management can weigh in on providing more to your customers. "
"B.L.T. has always hit the spot...beware that a large sub sandwich (no combo) no longer costs less than $20...good thing I will pay anything for the nostalgia of Subway bacon...as well as every vegetable consistently maintaining taste and CRUNCH. Alas, I will be ordering again in no time."

"This is thee greatest starbucks I've ever been to. Everything is always fresh and made to perfection every single time. I absolutely love each and every one of the baristas at this location. They are always so kind friendly, happy and so so welcoming when I go in person to order which is why this is my preferred store. I love so much that I am still able to feel the love and kindness even if my order is mobile :) <3 They are all super awesome!!"
"I'm disappointed in receiving less than a venti, when I paid extra for the venti, on top of extra fees for the delivery service. I am currently reviewing the DoorDash platform and services, looking for the right delivery platform for my family. Although this is clearly a restaurant issue, this type of experience alone lessens the value of having DoorDash."
