We went there a few times and I wasn't impressed either. We've been picking up cold cut sandwiches at the Mobil across from the town docks and found them to be better than Sub Crazy.

Do any local places make a better sub than was once available at Waldo Peppers?

That was the gold standard.

We also love the Moble Station for subs and great Pizzas also.

Default Submarines

When I first saw this thread I thought it was about personal submarines (1-4 people). Seeing that is not the case, it did start me wondering if anyone has one or knows of one that has operated in the Lake? Prices seem to range from about $18K up to the millions so it's not inconceivable that there has been one out there lurking.

Default Mobil Station...

Got my first sub there today. A LARGE Italian...It was excellent and huge.

I've been passing this place for a very long time and never knew...

Thanks Forum members!

My wife and I walk to town on weekend mornings and get our coffee and a freshly cooked muffin there also.
You have to get there early though, the muffins are usually gone by 9am.

Default Mobil gas station subs...

When I watched her place my sub on a wrap paper, I thought,.."Not a bad size".

I was wrong, she then picked up the "other half" and placed that on the paper.

Holy cow!

Does anyone want to help me eat the rest of this thing?

They also make their own bread.

And it's a gas station.

Sounds like “more” than a Mobil station!
Have to take a ride over there...

I never had a hot sub there but their cold cut subs are very good. I usually get a wrap and they really fill them up.

The sub/pizza kitchen at Meredith Mobil has a stainless sink with town water, and it is deep enough to fill one of those large blue, 5-gal water lug-a-jugs that get used for island water, and the boss lady there lets you fill it up for free should you be out of potable water for your mega-million dollar, Winni camp.

Plus, there's a rest room around behind the no charge atm with hot, hot water in its' small sink that's useful if you've been messing with a 6-gallon boat, portable gas tank to wash the gas off your hands.

Also, ditto that for the LaDaSun ..... a triple freebie ..... and you get to run it all direct across Rt-3 from Lake St without having to use that awful hawk signal which stops all the traffic for two minutes whenever the hawk button is pushed.

Anyone know, did Rusty hold onto Meredith Mobil or did it get sold along with the hotels? He probably still owns it since it's a 6am-10pm gas station with a super location and it is not a hotel?

They must cringe when they see you coming. I had to pay for some guys coffee and muffin in front of me one day because his debit card bounced. I felt bad for him because he looked in rough shape. Was that you?

Correction... you did not have to pay. You chose to pay out of the kindness in your heart. If it were a case of “had to pay”, your hard earned money would have passed thou the hands of the government first.

..... no, was not me ..... the Meredith Village Savings Bank, a healthy five minute walk along the bay, has k-cup coffee for free in a very high quality paper cup! The bank makes you feel like a million dollars.

Heard the bank will give you a 12" meatball w/ melted mozzarella cheese on Fridays from 4-6pm, when you deposit a local paycheck for $200 or more, at their take out window!

He could be a regular at one or more of the local "food pantries" for the poor, the luckless and the homeless.

He's probably got more money than all of us but he's constantly in search of fee-bees.
