On the backside of Coligny Plaza, just around the corner from the Piggly Wiggly, sits a wonderful little sub shop called Stu’s Surfside Subs. This tiny shop only has seating for about a dozen people on the inside, and there are also a few tables outside if the steamy weather doesn’t get to you.

Inside

I walked over to Stu’s from our condo just south of Coligny Circle on our first day in town. I placed a carry out order for three sandwiches and waited ten or fifteen minutes for them to be prepared. Next time I think I’ll order a beer to enjoy during the wait or call my order in ahead of time.

Chicken Salad

I had a chicken salad sub with provolone, lettuce, and tomato ($6.50). Stu’s bread is fresh-baked in the store and it shows, as the bread is soft, fluffy, and delicious! The chicken salad was good, but I was immediately jealous of my wife’s beach club with peppered turkey, avocado, and cheese. We both liked the subs so much we returned on our final day at the beach and this time I went with the Calibogue (ham, turkey, bacon, and cheese with veggies) and it was easily the best of the bunch ($6.95). The Local with turkey, cheese, homemade honey mustard, and granny smith apples was also top-notch!

Stu’s is an amazing sub shop and I can’t believe that a Subway remains in business in the same shopping center. I will definitely be back for more delicious subs in the future.
