Seven subs!!!!!!! Wow I've never had a sub like sevens. Made with care and great presentation. Service is above and beyond. Every order is handled with care and kindness. I love roast beef and meatball sub, they're my go to in a busy day, ready very fast and such a light and refreshing taste. I work in Coolidge corner and this is my place to eat!!!!!! Owner Mike is courteous kind and such an amazing gentleman, blessed to have this establishment in our community

Needed a sandwich shop for a quick bite and walked by this one in Coolidge Corner. Couldn’t figure out how to enter as it was 11:50 am and didn’t know if it was closed or not. I walked around the corner to Beacon Street thinking maybe there was another entrance, but there is not. I backtracked and saw that at 12 noon a sliding window opened which is where you order for take out. I ordered two sandwiches and a salad for $35. The result? Basic sandwich shop with average to below average food and small portions. No way can I find a reason to justify $35 for this, We will not return but always interesting to try a new place.

Great place for a quick and simple sandwich. Friendly and speedy service, prices very reasonable.

first my profile has me in SF, but i am local. been going here since they opened. it is the definition of a hole in the wall. only the split swinging door to the business, an open sign, menus in the window and an awning, tell you that you found them. low key business. not a big social media presence. they make sandwiches, wraps, hotdogs, salads, offer canned and bottled drinks and packaged sides. they get busy....and your sandwich is made to order, which means if you walk up during lunchtime you could be in the queue behind others who called ahead. calling ahead is the way to go. if they are busy with orders, the phone could be unanswered, and you might have to call back. and, if they get slammed with orders, they might run out of ingredients for that day. only so much refrig space for their ingredients that are fresh. another good reason to call ahead. On a call you learn if they are out for the sandwich you want, you can change it and make modifications to the sandwich because it is made to order. they take cards or cash. cards get the small percentage increase to cover the card fees charged to businesses. cash is preferred. menu is fairly large for this small shop. And like any menu anywhere, some items might standout more than others, or just personal preferences for what you like. i sampled around the menu, found my favorites and go with them. i was surprised by a couple of reviews here that talked about portion size and low value. i dont see it. These are satisfying sandwiches. different breads are used for different sandwiches, ranging from whole wheat, rye, scali white, sub rolls. each will affect how much is on the sandwich. they are plenty filling. the key here is taste. ive had plenty of subs with piles of ingredients that were not constructed well. i like the melding of the seven subs ingredients with the dressings. the subrolls are soft, with a little chew and a little sweet, not like dry, flaking rolls often used in places that dont make their own breads. I particularly like their Turkey-V and Meatball marinara both on a sub roll, and the BLT. You can add bacon to customize other sandwiches. about the BLT... i mostly dislike reviews where the OP says this is the" best in the universe" , but Seven Subs BLT is damn good. i will eat a BLT in my home range and when i travel. It is sort of a test of the restaurant for how good they make this simple sandwich. Many ways to screw it up, but Seven Subs has it nailed. Here is why...bacon is good quality, the right thickness and smoke flavor, the lettuce is cut into fine strips so it stays on the sandwich and is present in every bite. Same for the tomatoes. The mayo is not sweet and complements the other flavors. I get the toasted scali bread and add dill pickles. The bacon is cooked well-done...not fatty and chewy, but not overdone-carbonized. just right. When constructed, the ingredients are all layered and each bite has all the ingredients In it. A joy to eat. Good balance of proteins, fats, acids and textures. I have eaten BLTs all over the area, and have not found a match. My worry about Seven Subs is that one day i will walk up to the window and see a sign "thanks for your years of support, we retired."

its a corner shop that is almost a literal hole in the wall. guy there was friendly and everything tasted good. for the same price point it beats out Subway and Michaels the two sort of rival shops nearby. no complaints and on a short notice i would gladly return to try their specials. the brookline sub had good ratios of everything and had some good seasoning . there is seating out back with an umbrella facing a parking lot and a traffic light so come for takeout if its atmosphere youre looking for

Alex

Amazing little hole in the wall sandwich shop, the owner is incredibly nice and the sandwiches are always a 10/10. usually I get the supreme italian, but everything else on the menu is just as good. may take a little longer than most sandwich shops but it is definitely worth the wait.

Sam Skoler

Absolutely the best bang for your buck when it comes to sandwiches in Brookline

First and last time coming here. Didn't have much for choices of toppings for a sub first off. I don't know why if you're a sub shop. Second what I substituted for they did not even put on the sub. Very small portions. Price not too bad. No parking. Cold drinks.
