Eegee's - Tucson

I moved out of Tucson 16 yrs ago but whenever I go back to visit friends family Eegees is always a must have while I'm there. It's home to me

N the last 2 weeks, I have been Eegees three times. My husband and I always love the sandwiches when we don 't feel like cooking. We are senior citizens now. We are from the Philadelphia area where the sandwiches called 'Hoagies ' are delicious and famous all over the country. Eegees sandwiches remind us of them quite a bit. (It 's your oil vinegar. New York has their yummy 'Heros ', and Boston their 'Subs ' (Submarine Sandwiches . Anyway we have had many of all of those sandwiches through the years. Your franchise has elements of all of these types of sandwiches, with the lettuce, tomatoes and onions sliced paper thin and dressed nicely in oil vinegar. Also, we like the Turkey with Mayo dressing too. So people love the sandwiches, pretzels the Eegee which was invented right here in Tucson! But, what makes Eegees on Thornydale special is the staff. We have been in the neighborhood since Jan. 2003 and have never had a bad experience at your location. You hire hard working but very professionally courteous staff. Always. During these 3 visits mentioned above, a gem of a young woman, Breanna has been working there. Late at night, with a cleaning bottle and cloth, she greeted me with the biggest smile. She took my order too, I was digging through my purse for change to pay for the sandwich. Embarrassing but she was so sweet patient. She is professional, courteous, intelligent. But most of all she is kindhearted. As a former business owner for 19 years, we always treated our employees well. But, we did expect them to help keep the place tidy during the slow times. We expected respect for all, and professionalism, honesty. Breanna is a winner, if we were still in business, she would be #1 on the Must Hire List.

Delicious as always We make a stop here every time we visit from Cali

Tucson's local fast sandwich shop. Their 3 foot long grinders are popular for birthday parties, sporting events, and business meetings. Their crinkle fries inspire spirited devotion. And of course the icy drinks are the perfect remedy for a hot summer day.

Ever since eegge's went corporate, I've noticed a change in quality of the meat. Also, they took off a few items that I enjoyed. Yes I love their classic eegee drinks, but I rarely go there for food anymore. Kids still like the ranch fries. Those probably haven't changed.
