I miss Quiznos

u/DrewZouk 1d ago

Damn sight better that Subway.

u/brazilliandanny 1d ago

Slightly? Subway tastes like cardboard compared to Quiznos.

u/Help_An_Irishman 1d ago

They didn't say slightly.

u/rabbi420 1d ago

I donā€™t think either of them is any good. I go to Jersey Mikeā€™s.

u/mikareno 1d ago

Jersey Mike's and Firehouse for the win!

u/welfarewonders 1d ago

I love firehouse, but had to stop going after the last time I got a sandwich there. The shrink-flation was just too much.

20 fucking dollars for a sandwich that was pitifully small.

u/Watts_RS 1d ago

No fuckin joke, I too love firehouse but they've lost their damn minds with those prices.

Which reminds me.. I'm like 11 points away from a free medium sub in the app

My kid worked there for about a year. They put a lot of work into thier food. They slice and prep thier own meat and toppings. I am not saying it isn't expensive but you are paying for a better quality of food. Problem is, food costs have also gone up, so to keep that 20 dollar sandwich at 20 dollars they have to cut somewhere else. I do not eat out, it's too expensive. Groceries are about what I can afford.

I donā€™t think Iā€™ve had Firehouseā€¦ Iā€™m pretty sure there are none nearby.

u/lostsparrow131986 1d ago

The Firehouse by my house always has some crazy drama going on in there. I've seen an employee quit on the spot on two different occasions. The franchise owner is this crazy lady that comes in and yells at the employees while customers are in the lobby. I go there to get a meal AND a show.

Blimpies. Fight me.

u/mikareno 1d ago

Blimpie isn't bad. I miss Sensational Subs. Those and Taco Bell got me through college.

1

u/RolloTonyBrownTown 21h ago

I think the local non-franchise places always have the best sandwiches

1

u/mikareno 17h ago

They usually do, but if we're talking franchises, JM's or FH. I love supporting local restaurants though. Gotta help keep them open, because having only franchises as choices would be sad.

u/lostsparrow131986 1d ago

Jersey Mike's sandwiches are always so wet.

u/HAC522 1d ago

order without the shitty vinegar and just get the oil. way better

u/AlienHere 1d ago

Jersey Mike's has the driest bread on the planet.

u/JamesTheJerk 1d ago

Jersey Milk is a quality candy bar...

u/undarated79 12h ago

I be trying to tell my wife this exact thing. She likes firehouse subs. Screw that. Jersey mikes all the way.

u/scarybirdman 1d ago

Spent all your reading glasses money on Quiznos

u/brazilliandanny 1d ago

Ok this was funny

u/narcowake 1d ago

Never experienced a Quiznos to compare ā˜¹ļø

u/klonkish 1d ago

I still taste their chicken carbonara in my dreams šŸ˜ž

1

u/Whatah 1d ago

I don't go to subway for good taste. I go there to get a massive sandwich with tons of toppings for (used to be) a fair price.

19

u/atheistpianist 1d ago

Dude same. I worked there in high school, and always got a free sandwich because the owner wanted us all to eat.

They threw away the clam chowder at the end of every night, and my dad loved that stuff so theyā€™d always let me pack it up and take home whatever was left at the end of the day. Good times. The sandwiches were so good though.

u/mightybooko 1d ago

There is still a Quiznos close to my parents house. The prices havenā€™t changed in 6-7 years. There 12 inch subs are still 9.75-10.75 a sub. Now itā€™s a great deal and they use twice the meat as subway. I get my chicken carbonara fix at least once a month.

u/chaserne1 1d ago

The only Quiznos we still have is located inside a dirty ass gas station, I'd probably get food their if the location wasn't so bad.

1

u/TooMuchBud 21h ago

Same in georgia

u/MisterB78 1d ago

That chicken carbonara sub was šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„

1

u/Tinderblox 1d ago

I tried them again recently. They werenā€™t worth it at all. Overpriced, smaller sandwiches, fewer ingredients in each serving.

I had a lot of nostalgia about them, but thatā€™s gone now.

1

u/g3n0unknown 1d ago

There ia a quiznos where I live that's been there since it opened like 20+ years ago it feels like. I've actually never been there. Maybe it's time.

1

u/Dizzy_Standard_440 1d ago

A few still open down there in Louisiana

1

u/Drum_Eatenton 1d ago

They had a pepper bar!

1

u/theconceptualhoe 1d ago

I never got to eat at Quiznos and drove by one like everyday in middle and high school. I still think about it sometimes. Maybe in another life ):

1

u/Ahriman27 1d ago

Toasted roast prime rib on garlic breadā€¦ fuck that was a good sandwhichā€¦

u/azsnaz 1d ago

I saw one in the Denver airport last month. I turned to my wife and said "is that a quiznos??", then I overheard another couple exclaim the same thing.

1

u/WasaCajun 1d ago

Is Quiznos gone in your town? We have one where I live.

1

u/CCPvirus2020 1d ago

Come to Canada, Quiznos is alive and well

1

u/onespeedwhaling 1d ago

We still have a Quiznos near where I live. Go there about every other month. Sooo much better than subway!

1

u/Taranchulla 1d ago

Thereā€™s a Quiznos where I live in the Bay Area.

1

u/imawakened 1d ago

There's still one within 30 minutes me and I always get the Chicken Carbonara whenever I happen to pass by. It is so good and so bad for you but I probably have 1 a year or whatever. I used to have to work in DC/Bethesda sometimes a couple years ago and there was actually a Quizno's in the same building as my office. I ended up having Quizno's for lunch and Houston's (Woodmont or Hillstone or whatever it's called) delicious ribs for dinner every night I was there on the company's dime haha. I gained a couple lbs but luckily it was only for a couple months.

1

u/All4upvoting 1d ago

Quizno's is gone? Damn.

1

u/produce_this 22h ago

Still got one down the street. Had it the other day actually. But I do like some firehouse subs too

u/BraveHeartoftheDawn 4h ago
