There's almost nothing in life better than a great sandwich when you're really hungry. The perfect sandwich ticks all the boxes: protein, carbs, fat, fiber. It's a one way ticket to satisfaction, and you can carry it in a single hand. However, great sandwiches are not available just anywhere. In fact, they may be rarer than you realize. We've taken a look at the biggest sandwich chains available today, and ranked them from worst to best for sandwich quality. Spoiler alert: there might be a Subway on every corner, but it's not the best sandwich menu that we sampled for this video. Here are chain sandwich shops ranked from worst to best.

Strange I didn't see my favorite sandwich shop on this list. Goodcents pretty much beats all of these, except maybe Jersey Mike's, which I haven't yet tried. Their bread is baked fresh, everyday, their meats and cheeses are fresh-sliced and they had me at Capicolla. While Subway's not hard to beat, they are, by far and away better than Jimmy Johns.

@jeffarose 2 года назад

Quiznos from the 90's and early 2000's was the best sub shop around. They are the reason the other "sub" shops added toasters. Nothing could compete with their prime rib subs. Franchises actually sliced freshly cooked prime rib on site to make their subs and then sent them through a conveyer oven. Corporate cut corners and were sued by the franchisees. They ended up with dog food on their subs before some franchises returned to the good meats but couldn't survive without cooperate support and folded. The best sub shop that didn't make it.

Publix, when I’m particularly hungry and have the time to wait in their very long lines. And finally, Jersey Mike’s… well, i just go there for almost any occasion. Easily the best chain sub shop.

@johniii8147 2 года назад

Unfortunately, i've learned to avoid the Fire House near me. Very poorly managed location and something always goes wrong. I've reported them to corporate that they need to get to the location in order. But they are all franchised, so doubt that will happen. A one a few miles away is by far better. All the chains just vary by location.

Togos was late night drinking food when I was in college. Still miss the No. 16, 40 some years later. I was introduced to Schlotzsky's in the summer of 1981 when I had a job in Texas. Brought a few Originals back from Wichita, Kansas when I had an interview trip there from college. We later had one in the town I live in, then they disappeared from Illinois and I had to rely on getting my fix in Maumee, OH on my drive from Chicago to Cleveland on a quarterly business trip. I'd stop there for lunch on the way out and visit again on my way home as my wife is a fan too. Now, we just have to wait until we visit family in the Phoenix area.

Mark Wiens, and international food traveler said that Philadelphia is the sandwich capital of the world. Why isn't there any Philadelphia area based sandwich shops on this list? The two things that makes a sandwich great Philadelphia has, the meat and the best sandwich bread in the world. Yes, Jersey Mike's is based in New Jersey, but they are based closer to New York than they are based in Philly. Now one thing they did get correct is that Publix would be higher on the list if they had a lot more locations in the country. But Primo Hoagie's hands down has better sandwiches than Publix all thanks to the one thing that makes a sandwich great, the bread!

I went to a Subway a few years ago. I wanted them to make a meatball sandwich the way that my local sub shop made them when I was a kid. Basically you cut the end off of the roll and cut out the bread and then fill that void with the meatballs and the sauce and put the bread you cut out on the end. You could eat it like an ice cream cone. They tried which is more than I can say for other shops.

I haven't gotten from there in a long time and judging by what I'm hearing it's for the best. Blimpie is uncreative, but there's one at the shopping center down the street from me. Not too far from a pizza place that makes subs too...or a bagel shop that makes sandwiches. Not sure how it's still in business! Quiznos used to be a special treat for me all because they toasted their sandwiches and put oregano on the turkey subs. I miss them, but the writing was on the wall for quite a while. I had Jimmy John's once and it was good, but I can live without them. I will order from Jersey Mike's next time I get DoorDash, which will probably be this coming weekend. I've heard so many good things about them and they deliver and I have no excuse to keep not trying them.

I can understand you knocking Publix because they aren't nation-wide, but it's still a must stop for me when I'm on my FL vacation. Stop in after breakfast, grab a sub, load it in a cooler for lunch on the beach. It's a great sandwich and a great value.

Firehouse Subs is probably my favorite When I feel like ODing on sandwich, however, a Giant-sized Gargantuan from Jimmy John’s is my method of choice Charleys and Steak Escape always have good cheesesteaks

I've never had a chance to try Jersey Mike's, but apparently there are a few locations near me that I didn't know about, so maybe I'll try it one of these days. I have made several visits to Potbelly this year, after I first heard about it from a fellow I watch regularly here on RU-vid, and I'm a bit surprised it wasn't ranked at least a little higher on the list. Their sandwiches are some of the best I've ever eaten. I've tried several of them and I particularly like the meatball sandwich, the pizza sandwich, the Italian, and the Wreck. And you gotta try their cookies, too.

@@JoeyT1 I have now made a couple of visits to Jersey Mike's. It may be pricey, but I found the service very friendly and the sandwiches quite impressive. If you think it's underwhelming, well, that's your opinion, and you don't ever have to go back there again. As for me, I will be back again!

When I was a kid my first job was at a convenience store that had a small deli and sandwich counter where we had to cut the meats and veggies by hand so my knife skills are insane and we had several hot sandwiches that would rotate through out the month. My favorite that I learned to make at home is a thin sliced steak with pepper jack cheese and peppers and onions topped with oil vinegar and hot sauce

In high school, I worked at a small midwestern chain called Clark’s. They had some of the best sandwiches I remember. Unfortunately, they “got their lunch eaten” by the newer market entrants and are long gone as far as I know. To me, Jersey Mike’s is an improved version of Clark’s, something that chain would have perhaps evolved into by maybe version 2.5. JM’s definitely tops this list for me. I pretty much agree with your ranking order as well.

I live in Jersey, but Subway is my favorite over Jersey Mike's (your first place). I order everything my way, so if I see that portions or a particular veggie isn't how I want it, I'll change my order while they're building the sandwich. Between the 2 chains, the difference in freshness isn't noticeable. Subways can heat any sandwich. Jersey Mike's has fewer choices, and tends to soak sandwiches in oil and vinegar. Subway has more locations and is less expensive.

You would think New York City has EVERYTHING but there are no Firehouse Subs, Jersey Mike's or Jimmy John's. I visited a friend in Florida and fell in love with Publix - one of the nicest supermarkets I have ever been to, and yes, good sandwiches. Subway is not top-notch ingredients but the sandwiches are tasty and, though they do not give you a lot of meat, if you get most of the veggies, it's a pretty substantial sandwich. I can't believe you left out my favorite sandwich chain, Capriotti's, which just recently opened in New York and is thriving. The sandwiches are very well-made, especially their killer cheesesteak. The fresh turkey is unfortunately dry, though. Staff is also trained very well and very customer service oriented.

I tend to agree with your choices, though I find Jimmy John's highly overrated, and Blimpie underrated (they have oil & vinegar, too!). I have never cared for Subway or Which Wich, but I do like Quzno's and Schlotsky's, except that all their local outlets have disappeared! But my favorites tend to be Firehouse and Jersey Mike's, and I'll occasionally go to Publix as well (but I find Boar's Head meats to be too salty and prefer Publix's own meats).

@cindystrachan8566 2 года назад

Jersey Mike’s, at least in my area, is a mediocre sandwich that takes forever to get. I appreciate that every is cut once I order it, but that makes for an extended period in line waiting, which generally rules it out for a lunchtime grab. I didn’t see Penn Station on your list. Are the sandwiches that bad?

Of all the sandwich shops I've tried on this list which is more than half of them, the order is very very accurate. Jersey Mike's being number 1 I 100% agree with.

Jersey Mikes is so damn expensive for what you get, a whole # 13 sub is now about $ 17.00 which is a rip off because they don't really put that much meat on the sub. If you watch when they make it they don't lay the meat flat, they tend to roll it so it looks like more meat.

Don’t know many of them. We have a couple of chains in NorCal that probably belong here: Togo’s and Mr Pickle. Both use local products and bake their bread fresh. Mr Pickle has a swirled rye that is killer with their pastrami, and Togo’s has a whole grain roll to die for.

@crrhoades4 2 года назад

Completely agree about Togo's here in NorCal (which was started to cater to nearby San Jose State students). Their #9 (hot pastrami) is a benchmark, with the fresh wheat roll you cite and the optional peperoncinis! And their Italian (#13?) is also superb. I've been to the Mr. Pickle near me a dozen times, and they make great combos, but Togo's edges Mr. P. The Jersey Mike's is a great option, especially their Italian, spuer filling and very tasty done "Mike's Way" w the oil, vinegar, and spices -- but they lose a bit of standing for their slightly higher cost.

I've been binge watching your restaurant lists recently and find that I agree almost 100% of the time with your choices. But I have to respectfully disagree with having Jimmy John's so high on this list! I think they're terrible! The food is just basic, bland and unimaginative. The delivery is by no means "freaky fast," in fact sometimes they don't even show up! Maybe it's just the one here in Savannah, but they are the worst. And after an hour of waiting, if you call to check on your order, they get an attitude with you! I never go there anymore, and am just quietly hoping they go out of business so something better can come along.
