Quiznos closes at Bethesda Metro Center

Quiznos at 2 Bethesda Metro Center has closed. The interior has been mostly cleared out, and construction fencing installed around the entrance. Even the store's online existence has been scrubbed from both the corporate website and Google search. Talk about a "Toasty Torpedo."

Sandwich and salad shop greenWICH lasted barely 3 months in the former Quiznos space at 4817 St. Elmo Avenue. The restaurant has closed, after only opening in July. I don't recall much promotion of the business on social media - in fact, I never could find a Facebook page for greenWICH, or even a website. That's really essential to success in 2014.

The space is now for lease by Greenhill.

Toasty is toast. The Bethesda Quiznos at 4817 St. Elmo Avenue is getting a big makeover - and reopening as greenWICH on Tuesday, July 8, at 11:00 AM. In fact, while many were out at parades and picnics, and getting ready for fireworks, a construction team was furiously at work inside the space on the 4th of July.

greenWICH will specialize in sandwiches and salads, so it will still meet sandwich needs for lunch, albeit in a less "toasty" form. They've also got a very popular sandwich shop about a block away from them - local favorite Jetties - to compete with.

Quiznos fans can still get their toasty sandwiches at the Bethesda Metro Center Quiznos, located at 4801 Montgomery Lane. But it seems those who pronounce Greenwich like "sandwich" have finally attained some measure of misguided vindication.
