90
Score
Low Risk

Subway appears in inspection records 28 times, starting in 2010. On Nov 7, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Diners can read the low risk label as a sign that recent inspections have gone well.

There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near five violations per visit across recent inspections.

The most common issue across all inspections has been “physical facilities installed, maintained & clean”, showing up 11 times.

Subway's latest score of 90 sits above the Chicago average of 81. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
