Love this Subway!!!! Awesome team work! My mother told one worker she was gluten free and she even offered to change her gloves which shouldn't be so suprizing but it was considering you don't get that often! They were fast. All well at what the did. The best subway I've been too for sure. It was YUM!!!! thanks girls!!

Once again my husband and son have come home stating that Robert Harris Ashburton has not failed to impress them! Assistance was offered to determine gluten free options, the place was busy but that did not stop service being helpful and pleasant, and the food good. Nice job, Robert Harris staff. Wish I'd been travelling with them too!

Wow! i really "enjoed" my experience. Catered to my gluten free needs with an amazing presence. Hat's off To the Chef! cheers my dude, I'll be back! To the Waitress! Wow you really brought light to my day, thanks for your glowing beauty and exquisite service. Also I'd like to say a big thanks to the rest of the team out back, I couldn't have enjoyed it without you. Totally bringing my kids in next. Note: I'm returning for one of those light blue hats, you may need to order another. Also, sorry for the terrible pun, but it was a accidental misspelling that worked as a grand detail to life 😀

Stopped in for dinner on our drive down south. Served by a really lovely person called Brie, who went out of their way to look after my coeliac boyfriend. The food was delicious 😋 Will definitely come back

I want to start with mentioning this is the very first review I have ever left on a restaurant but felt compelled to. Currently visiting from chch and decided to check out the local food places. As a coeliac it can be very difficult to find restaurants that I feel safe to eat at. Not here! Their entire menu is designed so practically everything (except for one dish - the pasta) is made naturally gluten free or can be made to do so. They do this without sacrificing variety in the menu, flavour, ingredients - the food was divine and the atmosphere was beautiful! Thank you for having us and I believe this place is exemplary to other establishments for the future of dining out 😊

Attention coeliacs! I know a lot of the reviews say "lots of GF options" and it all looks great, but there is a tiny sign that says it stands for gluten FRIENDLY, not gluten free. When I asked the woman behind the counter if that meant "gluten in the food, but not much" or "gluten free by ingredient, just beware of cross contamination" she got quite angry that I even asked and didn't answer the question. Stay safe out there. Robert Harris down the road does nice GF stuff and they have more knowledge to answer your questions if you have them :)
