Last inspected: Aug 6, 2025

Score
Inspectors have visited Subway 23 times, with records going back to 2012. The most recent report on file is from Aug 6, 2025. Low risk means the most recent visit produced few or no significant findings.
The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around seven violations to closer to one violation per visit over the last few inspections.
The most common issue across all inspections has been “personal cleanliness”, showing up five times.
That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Chicago restaurant scores 81. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
