Quiznos costs more than most comparable local (non-chain) restaurants, but they do have good sandwiches.

The Quiznos in South Florida typically have a bunch of clowns running the place. Every time the coworkers and I go for lunch I can't finish my meal, it just seems so dirty and is run very poorly.

I don't like quiznos at all. They cost way too much and their bread is too "airy".

Subway, at least around here, the bread is always really dry. Plus the meat is kinda bland.

I actually really like Blimpies, so I'd have to vote for that of the 3 listed.

The best however, is Jimmy Johns. I eat there for lunch about 3 times a week. Their wheat bread is mega good, french bread is damn good too, and the sandwiches are very big for the $$.

Subway's ingrediants are bland and tasteless.

My grouping of sub shops:

Quizno's > Jersey Giant > Jimmy John's > Panera > Blimpie's > Tubby's > Subway.

Haven't tried Quiznos.
Subway is better than Blimpie because Blimpie charges for every additional condiment.

Wegmans subs rock! I usually get a 14" one for lunch and save half for dinner. :)

Crap; I forgot Mancino's; they'd be somewhere near the top as well; behind Quizno's though.

Never been to a Quiznos, but their commercials are enough to warrant never eating there. I like Subway better than Blimpie, but since they're both good, it's really pretty moot.

Quizno's owns all of them. There is a local sub shop I like better, but you've got to admit that Quizno's is pretty damn good for a fast food sandwich.

i dunno where you guys are from, but blimpie's (in nyc, downtown by the wtc and also midtown east by the UN) is the best. i havent' seen a quiznos, so i cant comment. subway is alright.

blimpie is by far better and isnt that expensive either.

edit: dunno about your blimpie, but the one near me has way better bread and toppings than subway's paper -tasting bread.

Same here.....what freaking Blimpie do you go to? Subways' bread is always freaking HARD and Blimpies is always very soft. They have thicker cuts of meat too. They are MUCH better.
