The family behind Lena's Original Submarines in Saugus decided to retire after 58 years of service on Saturday, Oct. 29, the shop said in an earlier Facebook post.
Lena's has been run by the Stepanian family since opening in 1964 in Cliftondale Square. The shop was known for their massive sandwiches with staples being their meatball sub, tuna salad sub and grilled chicken wraps.
"They were so big that when cut in half each side was still as big as a large size from most other places," a post from Boston's Wicked North Shore reads. "Happy retirement to a good family from BWNS."
