I’ve been a loyal customer at the Jersey Mike’s in Gold Hill for quite some time. The staff has always been friendly and welcoming, which is why I’ve continued coming back. However, during my recent visit, I noticed a change in the atmosphere due to some new front-of-house employees.
When I walked in, there were no smiles or greetings—just an overall unwelcoming vibe from most of the team, with the exception of one kind African American woman who was genuinely sweet. Unfortunately, the old woman and a shorter female employee came across as very rude, with an attitude from the moment we arrived.
I ordered a mini sub on rosemary bread, but the older employee started preparing a regular sub on white bread instead. She looked at me and said, “Regular, right?” I politely responded, “Oh, no—mini,” but she shot me a glare and said, “I’m not talking to you, I’m talking to him,” referring to my boyfriend. He confirmed that I had asked for a mini, and she turned back to me with another glare. Her demeanor was horrible from the beginning.
When we moved down the line, the next girl who handled the toppings rushed us through the process, even though there were no other customers in line. Her tone and attitude made the entire experience uncomfortable.
It’s disappointing because I used to look forward to visiting this location—it always felt warm and welcoming. Jersey Mike’s in Gold Hill is a popular spot with lots of foot traffic, and the customer service up front plays a huge role in the overall experience. I truly hope this feedback is taken into consideration, because no one wants to walk into a place where they’re met with hostility.
I made sure to post on Tega Cay...
Read moreFirst time at this location, ordered online pickup. The sandwich itself was decent but the customer service was not. There was no one in the store, I enter and there was no greeting. The African American male there asked if I was picking up or ordering, I said pickup and then was asked for my name and I gave it. My bag with my sandwich, chips, and cup was on the rack. He basically was like there it is, didn’t hand it to me or anything (an individual at another location has literally walked to me and handed my bag on numerous occasions as a comparison of service) and walked away, no “thank you”, “have a good day”…nothing. Sigh, the energy all around was just not good at all and negative (I legit felt it), I didn’t feel a welcoming presence. Essentially, I felt like I was bothering the guy, which says a lot. As a note, be mindful and friendly to your paying customers. Your approach and energy can literally make or break a customer’s experience and desire to frequent and return to your location. In a field where you serve and interact with the public, you should be able to implement proper customer service, and just be welcoming. Always remember you represent the company you work for and you are there for the customer, not the other way around. Can’t say I’ll be returning if that type of negative energy will be and...
