Another thread that amazes me.... Everyone talking about sub prices, but not many talking about sub types... sizes etc.....

Jo Jo's in Moultonborough is about the best for price and quality of a cold sub.... I am in love with the #10.....

I haven't found subway in Moultonborough any more or less expensive they any other subway shop I have been in, all over this country....

Overall Jo Jo's prices and sizes are pretty comparable to what I see where I live in Massachusetts.....

As for Aritie's I have only eaten there once, and wasn't happy with the quality or size, and I haven't been back....

Overall I don't think sub prices are all that bad around the lake.... however if you used to ordering a small sub at home, and go to Jo Jo's for the crusty sub roll, I guess I can see where the price might seem high.... But get something the same size at home, and I believe you will find out they are a decent value....

Jo Jo's is the best I've had east of Chicago.

You missed the sense of humor-gyros is sort of pronounced heroes. Thus my little joke that you didn't get.

That's ok. You're entitled. It wasn't a very good joke anyway. Too dry.

Or sugar? Might be too sour with vinegar.

Default Subs in Lakes Region

How about Full Beli Deli in Wolfeboro. It looks to me as if they have gone to only one size, 12", but some pricing differences depending upon what you order. I have never been disappointed with their products. The nomenclature for this type of product changes as you travel around the country, but the proliferation of Subway shops has done a lot to spread the word "sub" as a universal term, notwithstanding local terminology.

So...what did the rest of the family eat?
I agree! Many moons ago I camped at the LI Bridge campground and we frequented JoJo’s for subs and STEAKS! Nice butcher shop with some great beef!

Default Fantastic Sandwiches

Awesome subs / sandwiches, .. whatever you call it, no matter the price or size either, I will buy their pastrami, Italian, meatball, etc. Really, really good.
