78
Score
Inspectors have visited Subway 23 times, with records going back to 2010. The most recent visit was on Mar 30, 2023. A low risk rating suggests inspectors haven't found much to be concerned about lately. Note that Subway's inspection history hasn't been updated since Mar 30, 2023; current conditions may have shifted from what the file shows.
Recent inspections have turned up roughly the same number of issues each time, hovering near four violations per visit.
“Physical facilities installed, maintained & clean” accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing five times across the record.
That's lower than the typical Chicago restaurant, which scores around 81. Taken together, the history is a positive one.
