It seemed like such a shame to waste my 25¢ lunch money on stewed tomatoes.

It was owned by a young couple with a child. The wife said they'd bought it from a couple much like them. She said she liked the idea that their little restaurant had helped them & prior owners work their way through college & support their family. =-) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14469866031522022616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2733798735676707140.post-89377251373724841592019-01-11T20:53:50.837-06:002019-01-11T20:53:50.837-06:00I knew it was gone but didn't know when or whe...I knew it was gone but didn't know when or where. Used to get a toasted sub and a carton of chocolate milk 1973-1976. My weekly eat out treat. Loved the place. So sorry little hippy joint are long gone.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09796421705147358800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2733798735676707140.post-79823707265097632842018-04-14T00:03:15.969-05:002018-04-14T00:03:15.969-05:00It was a neighborhood grocery store.

My grandparents lived in the big white house on Broadway just aways down from Ripley on the opposite side (It is no longer there.) and we use to walk to the store with my Grandma after school to buy a piece or two of penny candy. When it became Yellow Submarine, us kids would get sandwiches there. I had no idea what happened to it. How sad!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15836084741122770587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2733798735676707140.post-40741417029826472202009-03-22T15:44:00.000-05:002009-03-22T15:44:00.000-05:00Fascinating post and thanks for writing it.

I was just reminiscing myself about the Yellow Sub on my blog when I decided to Google for any other memories and found you.<BR/><BR/>I have a photograph here:<BR/><BR/>http://my.opera.com/musickna/blog/2009/03/22/the-yellow-submarine<BR/><BR/>Sad to read that it was destroyed. I probably even saw you there without knowing you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01065353627064498923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2733798735676707140.post-52835158710711690202008-10-03T09:31:00.000-05:002008-10-03T09:31:00.000-05:00My friends and I would go to the Yellow Sub on the...My friends and I would go to the Yellow Sub on the mornings of Mizzou football games and get subs to take to the game for half-time. YIKES!!! <BR/><BR/>We'd occasionally go on Sunday nights too... when the dorm cafeteria was closed. <BR/><BR/>Great little sandwich shop. Their subs remind me a bit of the chain that's around today, Jersey Mikes, but they were decidedly better. Same style sandwich though. The thing that made them so good, in my opinion, was the bread!! I'd always get mine on a yellow egg roll...soft and sweet, and a good counterpart to the Italian dressing. They loaded the subs down with great seasonings too. <BR/><BR/>I may be mistaken, but I seem to recall talking to the manager one day and finding out that the building had originally been a little neighborhood market... the kind that all but went away when the day of the supermarkets came. <BR/><BR/>I didn't recall that it had burned. Too sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
