Delicious hoagies! We drove up to South Jersey on Christmas Eve and were visiting a relative at Bishop McCarthy. We were looking for an authentic taste of the Garden State and someone said the hoagies here were great. They were open on Christmas Eve until 4pm so we went in and ordered the classic Italian hoagie, meatball sub and Turkey hoagie. The staff was really proud of their menu and they explained that they were a franchise with about 90 locations. We were visiting from North Carolina and we did not know about Primo at all. We came to the right place and it was truly one of the best sandwiches I have had. There is no real kitchen so the hoagies are mostly cold. Since they don't have a grill, they don't do Philly cheesesteak. Instead, they slice the deli meat and it is extremely fresh. Th peppers on my turkey hoagie were the best peppers I have had and the oil vinegar and oregano combo was just right. The hoagie roll was also fresh with sesame seeds and everything was tasty. Daniel had the meatball sub and he loved it. You pick a drink from the cooler and they also sell sides like rice pudding and other side items. Chips line the counter and the menu is on the right side. I would highly recommend the...
Read moreThe rolls are crispy and stiff if you prefer this style of sub roll ,"some people like the softer style "depending on your preference. But primo`s meats and cheeses are the best ,super thinly sliced ,and piled on , not just 2 or 3 slices of thick meat other places uses placed on top of each other (I really hate that), the sharp Italian is incredible with the sharp cheese ..it really brings out all the flavors ! Spicy Italian and old world Italian also so good ...if you like turkey or corn beef special , I prefer the turkey version ,but the coleslaw and homemade thousand island dressing is perfect !and that isn't easy to find ...but if you want to try the best Italian sub ever! ,my way is this and I have everyone try it and they all love it.they become hooked . Get the whole sharp Italian(could feed 4) ,lettuce, tomato, onion ,salt, pepper, oregano ..(hot &sweet peppers on the side) get it dry (vinegar and mayonnaise on the side)yes mayo, they have the best tasting mayo, slightly sweet, not salty..use it with the vinegar..and put it all together at home ...for the family ..! I guarantee the best Italian sub you will ever have...you will be...
Read moreThe ONLY time you get a decent sandwich is when the older gentleman is working. These young kids just don’t want to work, have terrible work habits. If they don’t have the older man there working in front of them, your sandwich will be made poorly, incorrectly and take over 45 mins for ONE sandwich.
There were about anywhere from 6-8 people in here waiting for food and having this exact same complaint about the older man needing to be on site because these kids are not working out. It’s been so consistently bad here over the last year and it’s a shame since it’s the only one in area. The amount of orders that are wrong, missing half the order, incredibly soggy bread, is unreal. Even the “fresh” packaged food is really gross and gone bad, the bottled drinks are warm in the fridge, the bags of chips are literally stale and inedible when you open them but the oatmeal raisin cookies are really good, so there’s that hahah. This place costs too much for a simple hoagie to take as long as it does and for it to be consistently made poorly and wrong.
These teenage or very young adult workers are just not built like...
