Is it just me or has Subway really went downhill? They used to be a quality restaurant but now it seems all their vegetables are either too mushy or not ripe enough and the bread is always hard. Not to mention, does this company not drug test?! All of their employees seem to be high on something....they’re slow and not very pleasant.

I have 4 Subways in my area and ALL of them are this way. I’ll probably just let Subway be a bad memory and never go again.

Oh yeah, and their prices seem to rise with every visit.

There are four Subways in my area, and they seem just fine, as always. I wonder if maybe your issue is a regional thing: maybe a bad supplier or something. As for the staff, that will definitely vary, as fast-food places cycle through employees pretty quickly. The good news is that there are plenty of other chain sub shops and independent sub restaurants that could use your business; do you have Schlotzsky's, Firehouse, Charleys Grilled Subs, Quiznos, or Jimmy John's in your area? Or locals?

I never cared for Subway at all. Their chicken products, on the few ocassions I tried them, tasted really funky. In NYC we had a chain that was called Blimpies. They were great in the 79s and 80s. They too went downhill. So to sum it up, I don’t eat in neither.

I never cared for Subway myself. The last time I had a sandwich there I became ill. I prefer Jersey Mike's.

I had Subway last week and the bread edges were hard-as-a-brick. :(

The last time I ever ate at Subway (probably five years ago) I had a tuna salad subway. It like 80% Mayo. Many if their stores don’t seem super clean either. You can have them.

We used to have a Blimpie here but it left...it was good. There is a local sub shop that I frequent—-They’re really good and offer MANY different breads and their veggies are always fresh and no end pieces.

That’s my main complaint with Subway. The bread is so hard. I think it’s the preservatives in it that makes it harden so quick.

I was lucky with the bread...but the ingredients....yuck!!

I agree with a lot of the Subways are not very clean; the last one I went to seemed kind of dirty. Probably the reason why I became ill eating there.

We have several in our area and some are okay but others are terrible. I guess it depends on how well the employees to do their job at each one. I like Firehouse Subs better.

Subway's chicken in some ways...aren't 100% chicken!

McDonalds seems to be more meatier than Subway!

And maybe Subway was better when they cut in in a V.

Well I LOVE the tuna at Subway!! IDK why? , But to me it is really good, like addicting !! :happyface It is unusual( not like any other tuna I ever had and full of mayo), but like I said to me it is just SO GOOD! ! :happyface ;)And I always get it on flat bread with spinach ,lettuce, tomato, onions, and sometimes pickles !! ;)

With that being said , the tuna sandwich is the ONLY thing I like or ever order there! ;)The lunchmeat, turkey, ham etc is really bland and low quality and they barely even put enough on the sandwich anyway!! :p

I have ordered my Tuna on other types of bread besides flat bread sometimes and yes, the rolls tend to be hard and kinda stale!:p As for the veggies, they always seem fresh and good! And the Subway I usually go to has really good, nice efficient employees ! :)

But yeah, basically tuna on flat bread with veggies is the only thing really good as far as the food goes and I guess I'm lucky our local Subway is clean with nice employees!!;)

I am just mad they got rid of the "hearty italian bread" but other than that I still enjoy their food. My favorite is the chicken bacon ranch on toasted flatbread and meatball wrap.

Do you get your flatbread toasted?

Yes it is and I only get when I am inside the store. I don't get it delivered because I like my flatbread to be toasted a certain way. I been telling the person behind the counter.........."can you put in the toaster for 40 more seconds":lol:

Do you get your flatbread toasted?


Oh yeah!!;) But since I get the tuna ( I like that cold) I have them toast the flat bread first before they start putting anything on/ making the sandwich!! ;):happyface

oh yeah, that was a stupid question since it's a cold sandwich:lol::lol:

But other chicken bacon ranch I dont know anything other hot options to put on a flatbread

Subway is pretty god awful now.

My mom used to like Subway and was crazy about their meatball sandwiches but I don't know what happened to Subway because it seemed that every time Mom would get a sandwich from Subway she always complained that the bread was hard and stale and they would put one meatball in the sandwich and she would always be missing cucumbers or peppers on any other sandwich Mom would get from Subway. My one problem with Subway is that they don't offer corned beef sandwiches and any roast beef sandwiches in the kids meals and when I would eat Subway rarely I would be forced to eat ham sandwiches because Subway would never have corned beef sandwiches in their kids meals and I have a real weakness for roast beef sandwiches and corned beef sandwiches. Another problem that Subway annoyingly has that should quit is that any time you try to place a take-out order over the phone they never answer the phone and when you place a phone order you'll have a 50/50 chance of getting your sandwich wrong and not the correct sandwich you ordered. I think ever since Jared Fogle became king of Subway by starring in commercials Subway's quality started going downhill by catering to the health crowd by having mostly vegetarian sandwiches and with better sandwich shops such as Firehouse Subs and Jimmy John's and local bagel and sandwich shops opening in lots of towns Subway will go broke in a few years. If you want a sandwich shop that is better than Subway try Erik's Deli-Cafe and their sandwiches taste great but are a little expensive

I have to say I never experience a stale roll at subway

The Last I ate Subway was early January if i remember it well but i surprisingly dont eat Subway much in recent weeks.

I have to say I never experience a stale roll at subway

I never had a problem with the bread, it’s the ingredients that get to me.

I only went to Subway once and that's it. My parents used to like it, but now not anymore.

I've had good experiences at Subway with few exceptions. It's not spectacular but I keep going back.

My mom hates it:lol:

Same with me ! I really don't find it as bad as other posters here do. Like I said I LOVE the tuna, and I find the flat bread to always be nice and fresh! ;) I started with the tuna a few years ago having them a lot on Friday's during Lent ! And even every once in a blue moon I choose ham or turkey instead of tuna and just get lots of veggie toppings and mayo and it's fine even with the bland, low quality lunch meat! :D

I love those raspberry cookies

My mom hates it:lol:

My Hubby isn't too thrilled with Subway either. But like me he does like the tuna sandwich! ;):wave:

Oh yeah, their cookies are good!:) And I like the chips there. The way they have them displayed it's fun to pick one out/ decide which kind to get while waiting for the sandwich ! ;)

I don't agree that they will go under. It seems to me Subway is thriving. I see no Subways closing and I even see new ones cropping up ! Like McDonald's and Starbucks I think Subway isn't going anywhere ! ;) The three of them are tried and true places that people are used to going to ! :)

Yes the Lays brand

I love Baked Lays and I have to decide if I want Plain, Sour cream and onion or Barbeque , all are really good! :)

All the subways in my area are located where there are a lot of people

Train Station
College Campus
Downtown Philly-tourist area

So they will always be making money

There is a rule..........."only plain lays chips goes with a sandwich:lol:

My favorite is the chicken bacon ranch on toasted flatbread.

That's what I was having when my bread was hard. :(

Never heard of a hard flat bread:confused:

Oops, I forgot to delete the flat bread part. It was on Italian herbs & cheese bread.

Oh yeah, and their prices seem to rise with every visit.

Yep, seems like every time is at least $1.50 more than the last time you got the same thing. Prices in rural Subway locations are even higher. Firehouse is much better. It's kind of pricey too, but the sandwiches are much better.

Oh ok, I was like "hard flatbread?" lol

The tuna is REALLY GOOD!!! ;):wave:

Every time I had the tuna it was way to over-mayoed for my taste.
