Monty's Submarines

Absolutely love this place! The subs are so good. I got the beefeater which is roast beef and cheddar cheese on sweet bread. Very good, good amount of meat, and other toppings. The roast beef is very good quality meat. I highly recommend the sweet bread. The guy that made our subs was so nice and funny. I could tell he loved his job. I don't want to make this place sound bad, but neither of the locations in Springfield are clean. The bathrooms are pretty gross. I really don't care thought, food is good. Highly recommend coming here. Springfield staple. Will 100% be back. P.S. If you work for the health department please don't go here and close them down.

Had the egg-me-on submarine on sweet bread with a spring tossed salad with both ranch/Italian. So fresh and oddly good. Plus the guy was super helpful and pleasant. I'd take a picture but I ate it all. Not too far from freeway if driving through and nice area.

Great sandwich and salad. Good conversation from the gentleman who was running the sho by himself. Yet was kind enough to help me take care of my mother (98 years old)
Thank you for the assistance

Used to be amazing. But lately it has been lacking. The last few times I have been like, did they forget to put the rest of the meat on my sandwich... I would rather the price go up and the product stay the same. It was always a must stop when visiting or going through town, even buying an extra for later. When driving from Chicago to St Louis I would always have to stop and get lunch for everyone in stl, but now it's a well... let's keep driving we will get something when we get to stl.

When I was in SPI a friend asked me if there was any must have places that I try to get to when I'm in town. I said Mel O Cream of course, and anywhere that I can get a ponyshoe. Then I remembered, Monty's! They make a great sub. The Gobbler and The Hamlet are my normal go to sandwiches. You can keep it cold or have them toast it up in the oven. I like to get it toasted. The meat to cheese to bread ratio is usually off bc they put a lot of meat on them. One sub ends up being two or three meals for me!

This last visit I decided to try the Reuben. It was good. Even though I don't like Swiss cheese there wasn't much on there so I didn't even taste it which was fine by me. Monty's will stay on my like to have when in SPI list.

I'm in Nashville dreaming about Monty's sandwiches. Getting one as soon as I get home. Literally just smashed a breakfast sandwich and fried potatoes and all I want is a cheesehead with extra dressing on the side and a cherry pepsi. I'll see you soon my sweet.

Hit or miss service/friendliness/quality of soup depending on which location, but I have been coming here since they first opened the west end location off wabash religiously for the "Hamlet" on Wheat with the works. I dont ususlly like wheat rolls, but their's is homemade and so good. If it was based on the sandwich or that bread alone my review would be a resounding, shining 5 stars. It is really that good. Perfect lean pillowy shaved smoked ham, generously portioned, with melted swiss and a beautiful combo of thinly shredded lettuce, onion, tomato,mayo and an amazing house dressing with herbs that makes everything UMPTIOUS. GET IT ALL. The bread is lightly toasted so the cheese melts, but doesnt get too hard. You get a sweetness from the dough and a chewiness with the crispy toastiness. Omg...perfection and best eaten there freshly prepared or quickly devoured in your car like I do...lol. I used to always get the lighterbiter but now the soup has changed over the years and isnt as good imo. oh well, just order the sandwich and all will be well.

Fun atmosphere with delicious meats and breads!! Be sure and interact with the servers!

It's a submarine shop. Some veggies. Bread is nothing special. Second time here. Good for a quick lunch. Otherwise not particularly wowed by it.

Meatball sandwich was good. Ate the whole thing. I think last time was the turkey. It's good but nothing extremely noteworthy. But a good, quick meal.

My first visit to Monty's on Bruns Lane since the pandemic started. They have a large selection of subs and more, but my favorite has always been the egg salad. It still is. There are chucks of eggs, not a paste like other places, and the flavor really comes through. Just the right amount of mayo, the the sweet bread is the perfect complement, at least for me. Will be a regular again.
