How is Subway Gross? I've never had Quiznos. I walked into a Quiznos once and the smell made me do an instant 180 out of there. I get Subway from time to time. It's ok but it usually isn't my first choice. What I dislike most about Subway is the inconsistencies. For example every now and then I want a Meatball sub from subway. The challenge becomes, which subway has mozzarella cheese to put on there. Then when I finally find a Subway that does have Mozzarella the challenge becomes will they put that cheese on a Sub? I've been told in the past that the Mozzarella is only for the personal pizzas. Then when I do find the right combo where I can get the Mozzarella on a meatball sub the new guessing game is, will they properly toast the sub? I've had it where they put the sub in the toaster oven but when it comes out the cheese is barely starting to melt and the bread did not toast. It's just inconsistency after inconsistency, where as if I go to McDonalds or some other fast food place it wont be as much of a guessing game. Well your post explains part of the problem with them. Also in their push for $5 footlongs, they have gotten cheaper with the quality of their ingredients. The deli meats don't taste great. When I get a sub with chicken or steak on it, I don't want them to stick a pre-prepped paper tray of meat into a microwave for a minute and plop it on my sandwich. A lot of times all or part of the bread is hard and stale. I agree with the steak and chicken being funky. That's why I never get steak or Chicken, I've never tried either they just do not look appealing. As far as the bread goes, where do you live? Not that im asking the actual name of your city/town, im just curious if you live in a heavily populated urban area or a rural area with small population? I live in Chicago so I've never had old/stale bread at subway. I guess they just sell it and move the product too fast to allow it to get old? I've actually walked into Subway locations later on at night to learn the bread I wanted is no longer available for the night. To me Subway is something I get when im fed up/sick and tired of other fast food options. Which is pretty often, I work driving a truck so I always get lunch from what ever restaurant is in the area. I usually end up getting the Ham or the Ham, Salami, Pepperoni sub at Subway. I wouldnt go as far as calling Subway gross, it's just too inconsistent for my taste.

Meh... Togo's or Jimmy Johns please. (I have enjoyed specific sandwiches from both Subway and Quiznos though. In general I find Subway to be the more questionable of the two in terms of freshness and quality).

Quiznos, but I feel they are extremely overpriced. Haven't eaten at one in YEARS (like 7+).

We don't have Quiznos in England. I love Subway though. My favourite is the meatball one.

I thought Quiznos went bankrupt or something, because there were a lot of them in my area that all closed within a week of each other.

I vote Subs & Such or Nixon's Deli which are two local dives...best sammiches around though. Once you get into chain places though Firehouse Subs, Subway & Quiznos would be the order Id go with.

Never had either of them and probably won't. I prefer non chain sub stores. I find they have the best quality and taste great.

Jimmy John's and Firehouse are both killer. I personally enjoy Subway when I get something good. I don't like their steak, but an oven-roasted chicken, pepper jack, spinach, a little ranch, and some parmesan on italian herb and cheese bread, I can dig it. Absolutely started the oven-roasted chicken and pepper jack because Chuck Taylor got it once on a Candice and Joey Show.

When I eat at Subway, it's usually the same thing every time.
Foot long Italian with chicken, ham, barbecue sauce, and chipotle.

We don't have a Quiznos near here and I stopped going to Subway a few years ago. The guy who owned the franchises in townsold them and the quality and service went way down hill. More than once I'd go in on a lunch break only to have to hear the employees arguing in the kitchen or standing at the register texting their friends, not paying attention to their customers at all.
If i'm really craving a sub, I'll go to Penn Station, Jimmy John's, or Potbelly.

I greatly prefer Subway. The subs seem healthier and I like the options available to make the sandwich my own. Gimme a footlong Cold Cut Combo with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, olives, pickles with some mustard and sub sauce.

Out of these two choices Subway for sure.
I've only eaten at Quiznos a handful of times and it was not impressive the first times and once it made me sick so yeah...
Still my favorite sandwich shop is Togos or The Sandwich Spot which is a local place (iirc) that is super good.

It mainly being a California and Oregon chain, kinda few people on here know about it so when sandwich talk comes up in banter I'm always like, "GUYS! Togo's blah blah blah." Their Pastrami is legit. The Sandwich Spot? or Stop? 'Cause Spot is a local thing. Ike's is pretty decent too... but kind of expensive and service is almost always slow..

Yeah if someone lives in California they should really go to Togos! I almost always get a tuna from there since that is my favorite sandwich and they make the best one imo. And lol yeah Idk why I called it the The Sandwich Stop it is The Sandwich Spot! They are pretty great like I said but yeah since they are local they are pricier. At least they give discounts to Sac State students. Speaking of that one my favorite sandwiches is one I can only get at my college. It is called Good Eats and it is so delicious I wish it had more locations.
