What to Eat at Subway How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Subway, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.

Tips for a Better Visit
Check Hours. Confirm the opening or closing time before travelling; customers reported arriving at 10:15 to find it closed.
Confirm Combos. Check that combo extras are included before paying; one customer was asked to pay separately for a cookie.
Vegetarian Care. If ordering vegetarian, ask staff to change gloves and avoid shared utensils, as one customer saw the same gloves used for meat and vegetables.
Inspect Orders. Check the sandwich before leaving, since one customer received bread and meat without the advertised vegetables.
Clarify Extras. Ask about any additional sauce charge before confirming the order; a review mentions a 3aed request for sauce.
Check Promotions. If buying a coffee-and-cookie promotion, inspect the cappuccino at the counter because one customer found the machine coffee disappointing.

The Bottom Line
Subway in Port Saeed is a build-your-own sandwich and salad counter for a quick, customisable meal. Reviews mention the Guacamole Chicken Salad, Subway Meatball Sub, rotisserie style chicken sandwich and White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookie. Brown bread and Parmesan Oregano are among the bread choices, and some customers like being able to create their own combinations.
There are positive reports of filling portions, affordable meals and staff patiently handling complex orders. The cookies are a recurring bright spot. For a lighter meal, the salad and brown-bread options are the clearest review-backed reasons to consider it.
The bigger caution is inconsistency. Multiple customers describe rude, inattentive or dismissive service, while others report friendly and professional visits. Food-handling complaints include reused gloves, talking over open food and concerns about cross-contamination between meat and vegetables.
One recent chicken-bowl review also reported a bad smell and undercooked rice. Check the branch hours before going: customers found it closed at 10:15 despite an advertised 10 AM opening, and another visit found operations shut before the listed closing time. Before paying, confirm combo extras and any sauce charges, then check that custom ingredients are actually in the sandwich.
