The Great Outdoors Sub Shop - Richardson, Texas

Absolutely my favorite sandwich spot in the area!! If you don’t love it, you’re doing it wrong?

We went through the drive thru about 3:30p today, no one ahead of us and one person behind us. I’m not sure how many people were inside, but it did take a few minutes to order. The speaker volume was low so when we were asked to hold we thought we were supposed to order, so we had to repeat our order when it was actually time to order. For those that haven’t loved their order, you need to modify the sandwich to your liking.

My go to for the past 20+ years is a #5 (roast beef and cheese) on a croissant with muenster cheese instead of provolone with the works (lettuce, tomato, oil, vinegar, oregano) and mayo. Shakes are made with real ice cream - thick and delicious. My husband got the outdoorsman on a croissant, which as a recent sandwich convert, he says makes his tummy happy. So, if those aren’t two ringing endorsements, I don’t know else you’re looking for! They also have the good thick potato chips, Miss Vickie’s?

It does take a minute to make your sandwiches, but that’s because they make them with care and the meat is cut fresh and the ingredients are fresh. You pay a bit more for a sandwich but it’s also just a better sandwich. I’m happy to sit in my air conditioned car and wait 10 minutes for a delicious sandwich ‍♀️ You get what you pay for and this is worth every penny!

Did I mention we drive from Wylie just for this sandwich? Because we do lol Go get yourself one!

The food has cought me as a repeat customer, but it's the friendly service that makes me really enjoy dining here every time! Good food, good service, and a great overall experience! Luv this place!

Delicious sandwiches, better than your average sub shop. I would especially recommend the croissant buns! Their mint ice cream has the perfect mint flavor.
Friendly customer service, very clean dining area and restroom.

The first time I went to this place. They took forever to take my order. And it didn’t seem that busy. There was only one car in front of me in the drive thru. I waited 10 minutes after the person to told me they will be with me. I left because I was on my lunch break and it was taking too long. I decided to give this place another try. I figured maybe the person was new. I decided to get the half sub deal. Ham sandwich with chicken noodle. I spent almost $10 for bland soup majority of it was liquid and a plain sandwich with just ham and cheese. Maybe I just ordered the wrong items. Either way I won’t be back.

The woman working the window on 8/10 @ 11:30am was the kindest, most hospitality-driven person I’ve encountered in a long time. And I work in hospitality! She slips in affirmations while providing exceptional service and I have never left a drive-thru feeling like a just got a warm hug from my mom. I enjoy this location as is, but if the quality tanks, I would STILL come back to interact with her. Amazing!

The customer service was absolutely excellent. Everyone was so friendly and helpful especially for it being my first time. The sandwiches were great. They have toasted and regular subs. Many choices for breads, meats, toppings, cheeses. I was so impressed. I loved the variety and many choices they had for sandwiches. I chose to get The Outdoorsman with turkey pastrami, salami, pepperoni, and bologna.

Never gave the place a thought in the past but I went through the drive thru with everything going on and I am impressed with the quality and flavor! Delicious sandwiches. It's my new favorite shop. I have been visiting every week or two.

First and last time customer. Sat at the drive thru for 10 minutes. There was only one other customer I could see and they were at the window. Once they drove off you would think I could have been helped then, but nope!! Two other cars drove up behind me so I left. Hopefully they got better service than I did. They could have good food but I’ll never know.
