Two newlyweds moved to the delightful town of Aiken, South Carolina and now are going to eat their way through as many of the local restaurants as possible. This blog will track their progress and reviews of the food adventures.

Thoughts: Pat's Sub Shop is a quaint little shop that is kind of hidden on Whiskey Road in Aiken. This is a place with friendly staff that will not only remember your face but will remember your order as well. Eating at Pat's at lunchtime was exciting. The line was almost to the door and we could hear food orders being shouted out in the dining room. This only told us that Pat's was going to be a good dining experience, because that many people would not come out if the food was not good. One of the sandwiches Pat's is known for is their chicken salad. Sam and Lacey did not partake in this Pat's special, but Angel did and loved every minute of it. Sam had an Italian sub and Lacey had a turkey. Both were delicious. Pat's subs come in three sizes; small, medium and large which we would describe as: "filling", "stuffed" and "take home for another meal". When ordering your sub at Pat's you can either get it with everything, (literally everything) or you can create your own sub with only the items that appeal to you. Upon walking in one would go up to the counter and place and pay for their order and then take a seat wherever there is a table open. After a few minutes the order is brought out and the customer is alerted that it is ready by having their order (not their name) shouted out in the small dining room. Overall, we loved Pat's food, service and atmosphere and are looking forward to our next visit.
