Tired of the same old sandwiches? Looking for a sandwich that’s different and exciting? Then check out Nico’s cafe.

Smokey Mountain Subs, Waynesville NC

May 29, 2009

in Sub Shops, Waynesville

Overall: ★★½☆☆

Smokey Mountain Subs is located in the heart of downtown Waynesville NC just to the left of the Sweet Onion. We decided to give it a try based on a friends recommendation. They selection of sandwiches is impressive and the prices reasonable. Be aware though: They do not take credit cards. This was actually a big turn off for me and frankly will keep me from eating there again. I use a debit card for everything and never carry cash. The sandwiches are very good, but not as good as I expected. The meat, cheeses and toppings were fresh and very good. If it weren’t for the cash or check requirement, we would go back.

If it weren’t for the large Bocelli’s Italian Eatery sign out front, it would be rather easy to just drive right by Bocelli’s and not even know it was there. Fortunately we live in the area and have driven by enough times to spot it!
