Low Risk NYC Grade: A

Public records show six inspections at Subway stretching back to 2023. On Jan 27, 2026, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.

Recent inspections have turned up roughly the same number of issues each time, hovering near two violations per visit.

When inspectors have written things up, “non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material” has been the most frequent reason, cited three times.

The city-wide average for Manhattan sits at 77, putting Subway on the better side of that line. The file should reassure diners considering a visit.
