When It Comes to Portions, Size Does Matter!

You know the old saying, “the bigger, the better?” Well, we all know that’s true in many cases. But, when it comes to sub sandwiches, bigger is definitely better. And when you can get a bigger sub sandwich at a great price – what more can you ask for!

We understand everyone wants to get the most for their money. That is why Lenny’s believes in offering huge portions at reasonable prices. We want to earn customer loyalty, by offering huge portions of the highest quality ingredients for a fair price.

Enter stage right (Lenny’s Sub Shop). We make your sandwich exactly how you like it, using only premium meats and cheeses sliced fresh to order. With about a half pound of meat and cheese on a regular size sub – Lenny’s regular sub is 7.5 inches long, WOW! – and a pound on a large size sub (15 inches – forget the footlong, right?), you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better value for your money. And since one size doesn’t necessarily fit all, many of our guests enjoy half of a large size sub for lunch, and save the other half for dinner. With that much meat and cheese on a sandwich, order two and feed a family of four for much cheaper than at a casual dining restaurant. Talk about bang for your buck! It just goes to show that even if you’re someone who wonders, “How much is too much?” you can rest assured knowing that even if it’s too much for one sitting, you can still reap the benefits of a good value by saving some for later.

But at Lenny’s we won’t compromise taste to save a buck! We know that freshness and flavor are on the top of your requirement list when you walk into a restaurant. Sometimes eating out is something people do for fun. However, with schedules getting busier everyday, people often dine out because they don’t have time to cook! If that’s the case, it’s all the more reason you’ll want to choose Lenny’s for dinner! Our dedication to serving taste bud-tantalizing—heck, let’s just call them “yummy”—subs has been our focus since our first store opened in 1998.

And at Lenny’s, all this comes at an every-day low price. No gimmicks or “for really, really short limited time only” solicitations. We know our guests don’t always have time to hassle with just the occasional special, so we offer our subs at value prices day after day.

So what’s the bottom line when it comes to portion sizes? Too much is never enough—as long as you’re talking about the food and not the price!

Welcome to Lenny’s Sub Shop (The Blog, That Is)!

Thank you for visiting the new Lenny’s Sub Shop blog! We love our guests, so we’re fired up to dedicate this space on a regular basis to helping people get to know us—and the sub sandwich—better. We’ll do anything to find the best ways to serve and stay connected with the people who love our food, and since this social media thing is exploding around us, what better way is there for us communicate with our biggest fans? Look out! We now know enough about social networking to be dangerous!

Over the next couple of months, you’ll find information in this blog on everything from our mission to what makes an appropriate portion size to the history of the Philly Cheesesteak. But, our passion for this new way of keeping in touch won’t stop with the blog. We hope you’ll follow us on Facebook and Twitter. You’ve told us those are the best ways to reach you. So please, read on, to help us kick off our new venture!

Our genuine Philadelphia-style sub shop was first opened in 1998 in a Memphis, Tenn., suburb. The fresh-baked bread and finest quality deli meats, coupled with a commitment to quality and dedication to detail has made Lenny’s Sub Shop one of the fastest growing sub shops around. Today, we have more than 160 franchise restaurants nationwide to satisfy those cravings for authentic Philly Cheesesteaks, world-class sub sandwiches and, of course, our signature Hot Pepper Relish. (By the way, it’s not only great on sandwiches; it’s “to die for” mixed with dips and appetizers!)

If you’ve ever been to one of our restaurants, you know our dedication to More Food, More Taste, More Personality® runs deep. Our seven and one-half inch sandwiches offer one-half pound of meat; over a pound goes into a 15-inch sandwich. Wow! That’s a mouthful! And, these subs are made fresh to order with only top-notch ingredients, so you can expect only top-notch sandwiches.

A visit to Lenny’s Sub Shop is like having lunch at a friend’s house, and that’s why our loyal guests repeatedly return to the particular Lenny’s location they call, “My Lenny’s.” Our team members kick off your visit by greeting you at the door with a friendly “hello.” But, that’s just the beginning. We’ll make your sandwich the way you like it, and you can enjoy your sub while chilling out in one of our ultra-comfortable booths. We want you to feel at home, so refill your drink as you please, or we’ll be happy to refill it for you. What’s the best part? There are no trash cans in our dining room because we don’t want you to clean up after yourself! That’s our job.

We pride ourselves on being the favorite neighborhood sub shop, so rest assured our dedication to making mouth-watering and generously sized subs and Cheesesteaks and providing exceptional customer service at a fair price will never disappear. After all, that’s why, Everybody Loves Lenny’s!
