Subway
Last inspected: Jan 22, 2026
64
Score
Inspectors have visited Subway 27 times, with records going back to 2010. Inspectors last stopped by on Jan 22, 2026. A medium risk rating points to a few notable findings at the last inspection, though nothing severe.
Things have been moving the wrong way, with the rolling count rising from around one violation to closer to five violations per visit.
The pattern that stands out is “walls, ceilings, attached equipment constructed per code”, which has been cited eight times.
Compared to other Chicago restaurants (averaging 81), there's room to close the gap. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
