Subway

This Subway in Harvard Square is a branch of the sandwich chain founded in 1965 in Connecticut, which has grown into one of the largest restaurant brands in the world. Sandwiches and salads are made to order for each customer, who picks the bread, protein, cheese, vegetables and sauces at the counter. The chain promotes itself as an alternative to traditionally fatty fast food, noting that many of its options have 6 grams of fat or less.

That focus has made the chain a popular stop for health-conscious diners who want a quick, customizable meal. Orders can be placed in person or online, and the chain’s Sub Club membership program sends members exclusive deals. Subway also runs periodic promotions, such as a tie-in offering in-game rewards for the video game ARC Raiders with a meal purchase, and it sells gift cards for any occasion.
