They are still good.
I love their pepperoni and salami sandwiches
And their meatballs? Oh my god, they are delicious.

There was a location right off campus when I was in college that was always high quality. Every location I've been to since has been sub-par. There are plenty of better sandwich shops around.

Love their BBQ Rib sandwich with BBQ-Sauce every now and then.
Would love to try the other franchises mentioned here, but being a German and Subway being the only US sub franchise here...well.

I can get a healthy sub there. Which is my main reason for going( instead of the local concentrated fat inbetween two pieces of bread shop)

I will never support Jimmy John's, as their CEO is one of worst people on Earth (look up the awful crap he's done). Never knew this. Looked it up and I am done with them now.

As far a and what sub place is better, I'd go with Firehouse or Which Wich. Ha, I just tried Which Wich for the very first time about an hour ago. It's great! We were actually talking about how much better it is than Subway, albeit more expensive Which Wich is one of my favorites. When I am feeling like I want something good that will make me feel like crap later I get the Elvis (peanut butter, banana, honey, and bacon. I add cheddar cheese to it).

IMO no.
In my experience, it's always just been sorta okay.
I'm sure if you had the good fortune to get a sandwich from the seed-layer Subway, it was incredible, but once you become a chain, your food sucks.
Unless you're a control freak anus about hiring, you just have randoms in there hacking food together with materials that your lawyers set up, or something.
It's just a job. Your "vision" was to get you thing out there and you did, so who cares? All you are now is a place for awful teens to work until they find a "real" job.

When are you referring to them being good in the past? They started nearly 50 years ago, and I feel they only gained legitimacy in the past 15.
Personally, around here, it's Subway, Penn Station, Firehouse, and Jimmy Johns. I tend to eat a meatball marinara with lettuce, sprouts, American cheese, and swiss, but that's about it.

I've always felt that if Subway had 4 more types of cold cuts, 2 more types of cheese and about a half dozen more sauces it would be way better.
I just feel "bored" with most of the choices.

They're good when you eat the food in the restaurant. And get the sub toasted.

Meatball Marinara still gets it done every so often, although my last one was poorly made, no effort made, just threw it on, sandwich closed & wrapped so quick, but the actual sandwich was still good.
Burger King or McDonalds gets my custom though if I have £5 or so going, especially w/ BK's new King Saver Drake, 99p for 6nuggets, and various other items, £5 goes a long way in that regard when buying off the King Saver menu

Why did they discontinue $5 footlongs? Febuary (tomorrow) was supposed to be all foot longs for $5 which I usually gave them lots of business for. Now its kinda just another place.

Once in a while I feel like Subway, then I go and start to eat and feel like I made a horrible choice. It really kind of sucks. They vegetables aren't even close to ripe, taste like water and the meat and cheese are so thin and non-existent you may as well save your cash and just get a veggie sub and slather it in sauce, the sauce is the only taste anyway.

Here in Lubbock, we have a Quizno's on campus (and a second one just opened up a few days ago), 4 Jimmy John's locations (which is my default), a TON of Subways, which I avoid like the plague, and the Which Wich just closed down due to lack of business right across from campus.
Subway was okay YEARS ago, but every time I've been in the past, they haven't been very good.
For the time being, I'll stick with Jimmy John's, or Quiznos when I'm at work.

I like it a lot, I just don't eat there as much since they have jacked the prices up in the last couple years. I can go to an actual deli and get a sandwich for pretty much the same price now.

I like the big hot pastrami sandwich, but I find it is a real gamble when I order it. It will either be outrageously good or appallingly bad.
