There used to be a Quiznos in the Plaza shopping centre on Oxford Street in London that I ate at once, this would've been about 2007 or 2008. They weren't at all widespread in the UK and I think it was just before Subway toasting sandwiches was really common, and the Quiznos toasted meatball sub was an absolute game changer in the fast food stakes. My disappointment when it closed down shortly afterwards was immeasurable.
Not sure where I'm going with this little anecdote.

While we're at it, could we also get more Roy Rogers back? The only one I've consistently found over the last 20 years has been in a rest stop on the New York Thruway whenever I'm driving upstate and have to go through the Finger Lakes region, and maybe one at a rest stop in Maryland.

I stayed away from the fixin's at the City Location >_>

A franchise opened in my town about two years ago. It legit felt like a front for drugs. It closed six months later.

We had at least one quiznos during its heyday. I kept meaning to try it out and just never got around to it. That said this might be a good time for a comeback given how far Subway has gone downhill.

The one here shutdown some time ago. The last time I went in, it was filthy, especially considering it was only me and a single employee in there.
I always enjoyed the turkey ranch and Swiss, in fact, I don’t think I ever got anything else ever.

Quiznos was okay, but never worth the process you would pay. And once Subway started toasting their sandwiches, it was pretty much the end.
So what about now? Are the prices comparable to their competitors? I mean, sure Jersey Mike's is a few bucks more expensive than Subway, but it's easily worth the value. Quiznos never came close to the same value in my opinion.

The only Quiznos I remembered was in the first town I lived in that was a small walk away from my house. It's since been replaced with a ramen shop.
