I compared the same 4 sandwiches at Subway and Wawa. As an East Coaster, I’m shocked my go-to chain let me down in every category.

• I compared four sandwiches at Subway and Wawa to see which was the superior chain.
• Wawa loaded up its wrap and sandwiches, but Subway’s food packed way more flavor.
• Although Subway was more expensive, there are more locations, and the sandwiches were better.

As someone from the East Coast, Wawa has always been a go-to spot for food, drinks, and snacks. And I’m not the only fan — Newsweek named the Pennsylvania-based chain the No. 2 convenience store in the country for 2024.

If I need an on-the-go sandwich, I always choose Wawa over Subway. But I wanted to see if my regional bias was actually getting me the best subs.
