Cobby's — Restaurant in Idaho

"A man's social rank is determined by the amount of bread he eats in a sandwich." ― F. Scott Fitzgerald

If the quote above were true, I'd be a poor peasant! My review is not based on their sandwich-- ironically we didn't order one. However, the smell was amazing, the descriptions were tantalizing, the view of the other patrons was salivating! Watching their bread be spread and layered with meaty and creamy goodness, dipped and drizzled, the meats and cheeses becoming one, sauce overflowing-- I almost needed a cigarette, but I don't smoke.

I usually order sands with no bread, but they had a freakin salad bar, and.... clam chowder (lacking many clams)! Ummm.... hello... "A man's social rank is determined by the amount of bread he eats in a sandwich." ― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Beautiful and Damned, please give me Number 9!

54th person to review Cobby's Sandwich Shop. This is my 450th review. Tucked into a dying, small(ish) shopping center/stip in Boise off Overland near the Grocery Outlet and D & B lot. Hard to see this place if you didn't Yelp or know its here!

Walking in you see menu boards, picnic table, a salad bar, and lots of nostalgic Boise Photos, which is an excellent touch.

I ordered a big bowl of Clam Chowder and a trip to the salad bar. The salad bar was average, but the top-of-the-line kind of average. Whole Apples and Oranges, all the salad fixings, and an assortment of pasta and potato type salads.

It was an enjoyable meal, ambiance with excellent (yes excellent)...

This company simply does not care about their employees. People go through this thing called "Life" and a long term employee that gave you many years of dedication deserved to be treated better. I'm thankful my company recognizes tenure and I was placed on a leave for high blood pressure. The GM Tammy should not be managing people. She took an opportunity to jerk around a person that didn't deserve that at all. In fact I have never in my life witnessed a worse manager. It was interesting watching this person basically talk to herself and to bring her back and then fire her because she didn't see your message right away. That was the absolute most unprofessional thing I have ever witnessed a "manager" do to a person. There are people that still care about values and treating people decently but since Cobbys employs garbage management they obviously have no values for people or their employees. You would think a smaller business would respect their employees and single mothers. Now everyone on Google will know the truth about Cobbys management and how they treat good people. Cobbys needs to fire the GM and get some real management. She has no business managing people, I would be surprised if she could manage to care for a goldfish let alone multiple locations. I will be back to continue to tell the world about the GM that treated an innocent employee very badly. A leave with no pay should have been the solution...

I want to edit my review on Cobys. I provided my experience below but was super impressed when I received a response to rectify this. I was not only listened to but felt like my service really had an impact. I was explained of the new hires and understand. I do want to clearify that the company and the food them selves are awsome. This will not prevent me from going back. I went in yesterday on Tuesday the 12th of January to order two sandwichs. I waited with three other customers for five minutes for someone to serve us. Finally one customer behind me went into the back kitchen and got them. They didn't seem to be engaged in the work. I ordered two sandwichs with specific condiments due to allergies to mayo with both employees standing there. Then the girl asked me "everything on both"? I was irritated by that, but I repeated myself again. Once I brought the sandwichs home I found that everything was on both sandwichs!!! They did not pay attention to not one, but both sandwichs. We have been going to cobys for a while now because an expensive price for a great sandwiche is totally worth it there. However I pay to get what I pay for. Not for a mistake that cause me to not be able to eat one of...
