Sub Conscious

Not worth the trip

by mkathrynp at Citysearch

This place is as bad inside as it looks from the outside. You walk in and see a very confusing menu, chip crumbs on the counter and 2 or 3 sketchy guys in the back making sandwiches. The philly cheese steak is not something to write home about. Not only did it take about 15 minutes, but the bread was soggy and it was much smaller than advertised. Also, you get that nasty feeling like your hands are sticky in this place, it's really not very clean.

• Pros: Good location, plethora of NCSU athletic schedules on the windows.
• Cons: Dirty feel, bad tasting food, long wait, sketchy vibe.

"It's The Service" that bites.

by chocolateyshatner at Citysearch

I refuse to take Sub-Conscious apart for just a few overly long waits for my subs; but it was 20 mins too long. I have had nothing but good food from this NCSU staple since I first journeyed there years ago...but nothing but bad service as well. After upteen years here, maybe one day they'll get faster.

That being said, my advice to the Raleigh-ites who pass this place by year-after-year and are afraid to stop, (it does look like a dive) is don't be. You'll become a fan too, just make sure you've got some spare time.

• Pros: It IS the Bread, not too $$$, A State Favorite
• Cons: UnConscious service, Don't get delivery , Looks like Sadlacks 2

It's great...when they get it right.

The food is good over all, if you can actually get them to make it right. My order has been screwed up about half the time I've ordered. Somehow they managed to screw up my order when I was the only person in the store. Heaven forbid you make them deliver when there are drinks or chips inolved, it is pretty much a gaurantee that one of the two will not find its way to your home.

• Pros: Good food
• Cons: poor service.
