My local Subway...only one in 25miles is awful. Their hours change like the wind. You never know when "the computer is down" and they won't take coupons or card. On top of that the franchise owner has started to cut corners. Knowing that a Subway franchise cost is relatively low, I wonder if I could just start one and put the other one out of business. Then swoop in and buy that location.

They changed the bread. If you had a jersey mike or Jimmy John or lucky enough to have a publix you won't want a subway nowhere. Jersey mike and Jimmy johns is way better

Subway's food quality went down and there are so many locations that franchises are in competition with each other similar to 7-11 who also doesn't own any stores just sells franchises. That alone tells you these aren't that profitable,

I miss the Subway $5. The quality and attention to detail (custom made) has gone really down while prices skyrocketed. What was $5 is now $11 plus they want a tip - and the quantity of food to make the sandwich has gone way down too (soggy limp lettuce and seems like all white ends of tomatoes). Subway for over 20 years, now it is just a don't have a choice.

In your opinion, is the service got better , in the lasts years? Not only at subway , in all the food places specially in small family restaurants?

Great video! You guys should do one on the travel industry! You could do airlines in all the different areas (Private, Legacy, LCC, ULCC, bankrupt like TWA or Pan Am, etc.). You could do hotel chains like on Hilton, Marriott, Choice, Wyndham, etc. You could also tap into the car rental space like Enterprise or Hertz or Avis! I think these could be really interesting. Could even tap into Uber/Lyft how it impacted the taxi industry. Or Airbnb/Vrbo how it cancelled out Craigslist. So many possibilities!

Subway messed up when they caught them using yoga mat ingredients in the bread. Look it up this was in 2014

I really hope TGI Fridays stays open. They find a way to stay in business because, I really like it. The food is good and fair for the price I think.

We have a really good subway nearby, the owners are very nice. I like them a lot. The coupons let you get a footlong for around 7 dollars and its a good deal of you load ot up with vegetables and things

My Chucky Cheese location (Fullerton, CA) closed! So many memories.

Most of these places have really gone downhill and are still bad today, at least in my area they are. Applebee's and Subway will never get my business again, Subway skimps on the ingredients now and I refuse to pay extra for my usual order, and last time I ate at Applebee's they served me undercooked chicken, never again!!!

The pin on your highly pixelated map for Chuck-E-cheese for where San Jose is looks like it's in LA not anywhere close to San Jose.

Chuck E Cheese was a arcade that sold pizza in the 80s. It wasn't a restaurant. Most people went there to play games and not eat their expencive pizza geared towards birthday parties.

I used to like going to eat at Quiznos and then after we lost ours, it came down to Subway. Then we felt ripped off as the commercial subs looked nothing like you would get. Then the stories about the quality /freshness of meats, et cetera came into focus. The newer menu items at Subway has been helpful. Bu5 then the franchisees had the option to play along with the specials BOGO. You had the coupon in hand but when you got to front to order, you were told that store didn’t participate. 😡😡😡. Being that we lived in one state and worked in another, it was getting difficult to remember which stores participated and which ones didn’t.. Like every food place in a Mall or a big business like Walmart, Subway, has to keep on top with rent. Had a fave Ma&Pa cake and coffee shop that eventually exited. Rumors flew that Mall was charging them 3x more than some of the stores likeSears or JCP. In actuality, we didn’t go to the mall for JCP., we went to share their latte and sometimes a slice of their cake.

My childhood best friend had her birthday party at Showbiz Pizza, it was probably 88 or 89, even as a 6 or 7 year old I found it disturbingly creepy 😂😂 I hadn't thought about it in decades until seeing this.

What a food. Amazing

Well the TGI Fridays where I live was next to a stupid club for years. That club no longer exist but heard had changed to another sleezier establishment which may not exist anymore. So, that makes sense. I didn't know the history of TGI Fridays. But, my experience with their food was far from great so nothing to miss. I do like the name TGI Friday's though.

I miss quizinos

Tgi Friday is a story about a single man and woman that met and then got married, they stopped doing the swingers life and just focusing on being married and eating good food.

Where I live there are two Subways literally a block away from each other

When the narrator says Dine Brands, I hear dying brands.

Who would have imagined that Chuck e cheese would become violent place?

Chuck E Cheese definitely was the go to birthday spot or just a great place I wanted to go to growing up from 6-11 years old. Subway is still terrible at most locations I got sick a few times stop eating them in 2016 and just recently had it, it was much better than I could remember. TGI Fridays has always been terrible I’ve never had a good food experience there. It was a great hang out place when I lived in a small town in Virginia other than that I will avoid them at all cost.

Potbelly is so much better. Subway is the place you go if there are no other options.

The subways in my city didn't change the insides at all

Showbiz was very cool 🤪

Last time I went to Subway (Europe) was like years after I had stopped going. It was bad. The food was subpar, and the guy making the sandwich gave the impression he'd rather be doing anything else. Didn't care at all.

Publix makes great sandwiches.

Subway proved that pet food could be used as a filler and NOT get caught.

I miss their classic wedge cut... from time when ingredients were actually fresh...

Plus the customer experience in certain areas in NY ......ran for the hills, your food is compromise.

13:39 wasn't that due to a copyright issue given that showbiz animatronics was owned by someone other than the company? so they can't use it anymore and just decided to reskin it into chuck and crew?

I quit doing business with Subway after spending at least $2000 a year for 15 years. Why? Because they do NOT accept their own discount coupons that their Corporate sends out. I haven't bought a Subway since before the COVID-19 pandemic. They still send me totally worthless discounts every week via US Mail. I throw them in the trash heap.
