The overview

An oceanfront original since 1967

Zero's Subs has made oven-baked submarine sandwiches in Virginia Beach since 1967, a hometown sub shop that grew from a single Oceanfront-area store into a Tidewater staple. The move that set it apart was simple: baking the subs so the bread crisps and the cheese melts — the 'Bomb' among the best-known.

A local institution for nearly sixty years, Zero's is where Hampton Roads grew up grabbing a hot, baked sub — a regional sandwich tradition all its own.
