About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as customers were munching on their sandwiches, an announcement crackled over the store’s intercom: ‘Attention everyone—our new employee claims he can make subs so fast they’ll disappear before you can eat them!’ Soon enough, people started gathering around just to watch him work his magic. But after a few minutes, someone noticed something strange—they couldn’t actually see any subs coming out of the kitchen! It turned out our speed demon had been making tiny little samples that vanished faster than anyone could finish their bite. A regular finally asked, ‘Where are all the subs?’ To which our heroic sandwich artist replied with a smile, ‘They’re right here in your heart!’

2. A regular was humming to himself while waiting for his usual sandwich. Suddenly, the bread slicer started making a noise like an old jazz record, syncopating with the rhythm of his tune. The man stopped in mid-tune, startled by the unusual beat. The delivery driver, noticing the commotion, walked over and said, ‘Hey, I think your sandwich is done!’ Everyone laughed as the regular realized he’d been serenading his own lunch.

3. In the early afternoon, when the sun streamed through the windows of Subway, a little girl entered with her family. As she approached the counter, she pointed excitedly and whispered something to her mom. The baker looked down and saw nothing but bread and deli meat—until he noticed the smile on the girl’s face. Suddenly, the girl giggled and said, ‘Mom, look! It’s smiling back at me!’ The baker blinked a few times, then burst out laughing. Turns out, one of the sandwich boards outside had been reflecting the sunlight just right, creating the illusion of a big, friendly smile. Everyone in line cracked up, and the family left with their smiles even bigger than before.

4. In the late afternoon, when most people had already left work, a delivery driver pulled up to Subway with a mysterious package. ‘What’s in it?’ asked a curious regular. The delivery driver smiled mysteriously and replied, 'Just some fresh bread for our special sandwich of the day.' The next morning, everyone lined up outside, eagerly awaiting their bite of the secret treat. Turned out it was just a new kind of garlic bread—still, nobody cared; they were happy anyway.
