Subway closed more than 1,000 restaurants in the United States last year — way more than it originally planned.

Can't remember the last time I've been there, must have been years. Jersey Mikes, Firehouse Subs, Jimmy Johns and tons of other local options are way better. Why do Subways all smell like... old ass cheese?

Subway is like Mcdonalds for me, it's there when you need it. It's medicore at best, but it's familiar mediocrity you can rely on if you're in an unfamiliar area or just in a rush or something.

I don't mind Subway, but if I had to pick a chain sub shop, Jersey Mike's would be at the top of my list.

There are two by my work. One is within walking distance, and the other within 2 miles. The further one I have no idea how it has lasted this long. It is hidden in a strip behind other buildings, while visible from the main street is Corner Bakery, Jason’s Deli, Whichwich, Potbelly’s, Firehouse Subs, and Panera. 

 

And that’s if you don’t want burgers, chic-fil-a, cheesesteak, kfc, Taco Bell, taco Bueno, chipotle,  or sit down for mexican, Italian, all American, fish and sea food, all day breakfast, Cajun, or at a steakhouse. 

 

There is really no reason that Subway should still exist.

My wife was the first person to mention to me the odd smell of Subway bread.

 

I’ll still eat Subway in a pinch, especially because the one I’m around most often has a drive through and most of the other better sandwich shops here don’t.

Probably because they make shitty sandwiches with shitty ingredients and much better chains are popping up.  Ever since Quiznos(i miss you so much) close 5 or 6 years ago the only Sub shops near me have been Subway.  But there's finally a Firehouse Subs about to open in my town and I'm hoping they do so well that the JJ and JM might show up and put all the Subways out of buisiness.

 

And yeah the smell of that bread is something else.  I've literally walked into the one in the gas station on the way to work fully intending to get a sub but when I walk in the smell is so unappetizing that I end up just buying Pizza Rolls or something from the gas station instead.  So gross.

I had no idea Subways had drive throughs. What a world.

Most don’t, I think it is only the really old stores. I haven’t seen a newly built Subway with a drive through in at least a decade.

I guess people are tired of chicken flavor gym mats. I can’t stand the stuff (taste like I had a bowl of salt). 

 

I miss the deli counter at a small Italian grocery near ubi in Montreal.

They closed the Subway near my apartment.
