Subway in Ballston Closing Within the Month

One of two Subways in Ballston is closing, part of a widespread slimming down of the fast-food sandwich chain across the U.S. and Arlington.

The Subway at 801 N. Quincy Street will be closing on Sunday, August 25, according to an employee at the restaurant.

The location is slightly removed from the main restaurant corridors along Wilson Blvd and Fairfax Drive — where the other Subway sits directly across from the Ballston Metro station.

The nestled Subway is nestled between Urban Tandoor and the Virginia ABC store. Despite its off-the-beaten path location, it had a fairly steady lunchtime crowd, including from construction workers at nearby projects.

The closure comes on the heels of recent closures of Subway restaurants in Cherrydale, Clarendon, and Courthouse.
