We would rather have Subways, rarely do we stop at any of the other sandwich places. Hamburgers are usually at various local joints.

Quiznos is better than Subway, havent ate at either in probably three years. Jimmy Johns is good stuff!

Ive just accepted that if your in a fast food place don't expect a spik and span restaurant or restroom, gourmet food, or competent employees. Once you get your expectations in line with what is out there you will be much happier.
I don't go to subway for a life altering meal. I go there because its cheap fast and there is one everywhere when im in the field for work. It aint lobster and prime steak don't expect it to be.
It's hell eatin em live

Jersey Mikes is where its at boys. I'm a fan of subway and Quiznos was good but not really close to me but now that Jersey Mikes is close its the only place I go.

Jimmy Johns is decent for a cold sammich. I'd rather have a hot sammich. Wish they would run the roast beef through a toaster or something.

Jersey Mikes is great. There is one over here by my office that we've been going to several years. Pretty sure the owner works the production line along with two other guys who have been there for several years. Clean, courteous, quick, and tasty.

Jersey Mikes is the best chain out right now for sandwich. Chips choices suck, fountain drinks aren't mixed right Firehouse is meh and bland but good CS, They have so much hot sauce so you can taste something JJ is better than Firehouse, quick but its just a bunch of lettuce and they charge for japs or "jimmy peppers" Subway is subway Quiznos - meh Schlotzkis - not consistant, good chips and drank

Quiznos better then subway. Subway just convenient when you are on the fast track on the road. Quiznos would have survived if they had their stores inside gas stations. Wich wich is pretty darn good

Quiznos has been in financial trouble for awhile. A big group of franchise owners were suing Quiznos after the board of directors voted to raise food prices on the independently owned stores to raise revenues. More recently, they are also being sued by a hedge fund that bailed them out. Sounds like bad corporate management all around. I just feel sorry for the folks that invested their money into a franchise only to have a bunch of corporate monkeys screw it up. http://www.denverpost.com/business/ci_26274692/hedge-fund-investors-allege-fraud-by-schadens-execs

I liked Quiznos, it sure seemed like it took a long to me for it to run through the oven though. Not exactly conducive to "fast food". I like Jimmy Johns a lot and Potbelly. Subway is just awful, no wonder Jared lost all that weight if that's all he ever ate THIS. Damn slow ovens killed em. Subway sucks. Whichwhich sucks. JJ's is decent. Never had a Potbelly. Jersey Mikes for the win though. Hands down.

I don't know what it is but their sandwiches arent good to me. I do like that I can write any ridiclous name on the bag and they'll still yell it out.
