| - SETTING:
Seems like a lot of Pittsburgh sub/sandwich/hoagie places have a similar ambiance. Peppi's is no different, but it separates itself from the rest with its SUB-stantial flavors. Wooden benches/booths and walls adorned with photos of interesting characters. Laid back place to grab a quick bite.
FOOD:
First time here, so I decided to go with their most famous sub: "The 7". The description wasn't kidding when they called this sub a juggernaut. Loaded with ground sausage, egg, american cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, and mayo, the "7"--aka the "Roethliburger"--delivered the perfect pass. A tight spiral down the chute and into my stomach. Touchdown, baby! It's THAT good, not to mention filling. Ain't nobody got time for SUB-par hoagie pokey.
The fresh cut fries are pretty solid too. Don't be fooled, the small size is plenty big. If you're here with another person, I would recommend sharing one sub and small fries. Yes, the fries are a bit greasy, but let's be honest...you're not here because you care about eating something "delicious and nutritious," you're here because you want to devour a monstrous sandwich and have fries with that!
SERVICE:
Order up front and you get a number that you put on your table. Seat yourself. In 10 minutes or so, your sub will be brought to you, and it will SUB-consciously change your life. Friendly staff all around.
IMPRESSION:
I'd definitely come back again to try their other subs. Gotta be in the right mindset though. This is for sure a heavy duty lunch. As of now, my sub/hoagie ranking is as follows:
1. Peppi's
2. Uncle Sam's
3. Primanti Brothers
How many more SUB-liminal messages and hints do you need? Go get yourself a sub at Peppi's!
