6 Waterloo Vale, South ShieldsThis review is soley for the tall dark haired girl who works Monday lunch times, she’s a credit to subway, so efficient yet puts care into every sandwich. It’s the little things and she should train other staff not just at this branch but at every branch.
I literally wish every branch had someone as good as her! I’m getting her name next time!
