Quizno's is good, but Schlotsky's is the ultimate!! (I don't know how many states have them yet, but they have the best!!!sandwiches evah!)
Starbucks does not have a very good repuataion here, due to their practice of opening shops in the same block as a local, independent coffeehouse in an attempt to squash the competition. They've done it numerous times and it's pretty sad, considering the amount of retail space available in other locations.

The city managed to keep them away from downtown (we have three great coffeehouses in that area). THANKFULLY.

Oooohhh, I have to ditto that. The only time I like a hot sandwich is from Schlotzky's. That is good on ya.
I may be wrong but I believe that chain started in Austin...I know I ate there when I was pretty young.
