Fantastic and friendly service. First time here and wasn’t sure what to get. They gave me some time and made suggestions. Went with the toasted Italian sub and potato, ham, and corn soup. Both were excellent. Soup was very hearty and would be very nice in the colder months. The sub was exactly what I was looking for. Toasted just right, great flavor, and the banana peppers put it over the top. Must go back.

One of the best sub sandwiches I have had in a long time. All the ingredients were fresh and it was quickly prepared. The service was friendly and efficient. It is a small place with a simple dining room, probably 6 tables. And it was very clean also. The prices are reasonable considering the size of the sandwich, I got 2 meals out of my sub. I will go there again.

The customer service here is better than some 5* restaurants I have been to. My party was warmly greeted when we all entered. Our orders were taken quickly and the food came out fast. The staff was very thoughtful of my daughter and brought her out a couple small items on the house. We all loved our Italian sub. This is a humble establishment on the side of the road with a big heart. Please make sure to tip the staff well. If I am in the area again I will bring in all my friends.

Great little lunch spot! I finally stopped in for my first time today. The lady was so friendly and very helpful. I decided on a Italian sub and it was delicious. The restaurant itself is so cute and home like. I highly recommend Joy’s!

Absolutely the best soups and the nicest people. Joy was a joy to talk with, and every item was exceptional. Can’t wait to get back here. Just as good the second time. Great soups and sandwiches.

Nice People. They were out of the corned beef and recommended a pastie. I wish I hadn’t tried one. Unfortunately, I can’t say anything positive about the pastie I had. I hear their sandwiches are fine but they should stop selling pasties immediately. The crust was burnt, the flavor was overbearing, with hints of burnt rudabayga, and the price was outrageous for the small portion. Mine wasn’t dry. I didn’t try the gravy at all. The real issue with pasties is the dish is not well known and has the reputation (not necessarily deserved) of being hillbilly food. This means only die-hard pastie lovers are going to care. The story they told me about coal miners packing these for lunch does not increase the dish’s appeal, and probably lessens what little appeal pasties may have had. A place like Joy’s can’t survive selling (and educating people about) pasties. A million restaurants have tried and failed. Do you see any places famous for their pasties? Nope. If the kids aren’t telling their friends about it, it’s ancient history. Every once in a while a restaurant owner needs a wake up call, in order to evolve and stay afloat. I offer this honest review with only the best of intentions, because locally owned places are important. Please get rid of the styrofoam take-out containers and get local meats. I made my own version of pasties at home once, with a twist. They came out perfect because I made them smaller, vegetarian, used curry, and called them samosas…
