Al's will always and forever be my office BFF. Extremely LARGE and affordable subs with the absolutely nicest staff. They are also FAST! You might see a line out the door but I can guarantee that the line will be done and gone within minutes. Whenever we have a big case to work on and need to put in those extra hours I always go and pick up subs at Al's and everyone has their favorites. Always fresh and ALWAYS delicious! I once actually held the sub next to a new born baby and the sub was actually larger! A small can feed me for a few meals at least, and their soup is a must have when it's available. Love Al, love his mom, love his staff!

Cool spot right off state street for hot and cold subs. Walk right up and order with tons of options. Place is a tad hectic but awesome spot. Great spot for lunch and very reasonable.

I work in offices on State Street. ALs was our go to, unfortunately it was sold a few months ago and it's not the same. The prices have increased over 35%. The food quality is unfortunately not the same. I tried again one more time today. I ordered steak and cheese. Only!!! When I got back to my office, I realized it was steak, cheese, pepper, and onion. This will be there last chance with for me and anybody in my office. Al used to offer an amazing lunch special $12 for a small sandwich included a bag of chips and a drink of your choice.Now a small sub sandwich is $14 plus

It's my offices favorite place for lunch for a reason!!! Absolutely the best subs downtown. We usually get small which is normal sized but if you want a whopping 16 inches go for the large for just $2 more. So reasonably priced and quick. Highly recommended getting your sandwich with the works (everything). Come and it may look empty but blink at noon and everyone and their mother shows up.

Al's is the definition of a quick, boston, loud, sandwich shop. Al's is known for their large sandwiches, cold or hot, enjoyed heavily during lunch time. The lines are chaotic, fast, packed, confusing, but that's what makes it so great! Don't expect anything less of Boston hospitality here. They will yell & don't have patience, but that's what makes it so great. I've had everything from the Chicken Caesar Salad wrap, Meatball Sub, Chicken Parm Sub, and have built my own cold sub. All have been top notch in quality. The best is pairing with the box lunch combo with chips and a drink for $12.

Very solid sub shop. Generous portions, more than fair prices, fast staff, and plenty of them to ensure there's no wait. Very tasty.

Awesome lunch in Boston! Crazy fast and huge portions! We were visiting, but I'd definitely be a repeat customer if I lived nearby!

Asked if I could order a steak bomb with no mushrooms and was told yes. When they called my number I asked again. I said now this is a state on with no mushrooms. And the girl said yes just as you requested. The attached picture is the pie of mushroom found in the very front of the 12 inch sub. There are many, many more throughout the rest of the sandwich. So I just wasted $14 and now on. The train to new york with nothing to eat.

It's the bread, stupid.There are at least 2000 subshops in Boston with sub ingredients as good as State Street Cafe. But only SSC has the bread: fantastic baguettes fresh from the oven, crusty exterior, the fragrance of the gods, and soft, pillowy interiors. I would go there for bread only if they ran out of substuffers.
