How do you differentiate locations of a chain restaurant? Food is expected to be consistent, but cleanliness, efficiency, hence service can vary greatly. You're all familiar with Subway food, so this review only refers to the employees.
Walking near this Subway we encountered a thin, elderly homeless man who asked us for a quarter. We refused and instead offered to buy him lunch at Subway. We received some quizzical, concerned looks when we brought Brian inside, but I'd like to think that quickly changed to compassion when employees realized what was happening.
The young man making Brian's sandwich was patient, since Brian didn't really understand what he was supposed to do (ie, choose his own bread, meat, veggies, etc.) He treated this unkempt homeless man with respect, which I am sure was more appreciated than the sandwich itself. I think the manager may have been concerned at first that we weren't going to pay, but once we did, he might have slipped Brian a few extra chunks of chicken.
We sat with Brian inside Subway for a few minutes after he received his food, but then we had to leave to get to our destination. I can only hope the compassion for Brian continued after we left--he was a paying customer after all!
If I find out otherwise, I will certainly update this review. But if they DID treat Brian with respect, even after we left, I will patronize this business again to thank them for their hospitality.
