Quiznos has literally closed about half of their stores nationally last few years.
Apparently the framchise agreements just screwed the franchise owners over. All supplies had to be purchased from quiznos no matter the cheaper alternatives
I think only 2-3 left in BR

I much prefer the sandwiches over Subway, but not too often I'm gonna spend $9 for just a sandwich at a fast food place.

I would rather eat real food. Jmo

Firehouse>Quizno's>Subway

Firehouse actually gives you a sandwich with meat on it.
I'm sick and tired Quizno's and Subway giving me stacked veggies and bread with minimal meat. It's a fricking meat sandwich, not a veggie sandwich.

Quizno's needs to take that "stacked with meat" wording all over the inside of every store b/c it's a lie. I quit going to both of them.

Firehouse is the place to eat, until they get too big and quit stacking their sandwiches with meat like the other two did.

I have a friend that owned a Quizno's franchise for a few years. Quizno's screwed him at every opportunity. Their franchise agreement makes it almost impossible to make a decent profit. When it was all over with he was bankrupt. Google Quizno's sued by franchise owners.

I go to liquidation auctions and am subscribed to newsletters about them. There is never a shortage of Quiznos supplies for auction at those things here lately. They seem to be shutting down everywhere and/or the franchisees are abandoning a sinking ship.

Subway


Always bothered me I couldn't order right off the menu and get that. Still had to tell them what comes on the sandwich they offer.

Is there still one by the 5?

I don't know. I haven't looked for them. I just happened to notice one that looked like it was closing in Tacoma the other day.

Its 2014 people want a sandwich dressed however they like, that's why Subway won out.

I do like me some Quiznos, I have to say.
Anybody living in the land of real po boy sandwiches who eats at a sub place and calls that "good" really mystifies me. I live in Florida, land of subs and philly cheese steak sandwiches on some kind of soft sub bread

Some days, I would "kill" for a real roast beef or fried shrimp po boy, dressed and dripping with mayo. And.on.real.french.bread.

It was more due to shitty management of their franchises rather than people not wanting to eat there.


More correctly, due to them fricking their franchisees and making it nearly impossible for them to make a profit.

Yes the headquarters literally screw the franchise owners.
Think 20% off net profit that goes to advertising and franchise fees alone. Absolutely ridiculous
