Subway

Footlongs and salads near T1 departures at HYD

Subway at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport sits in Terminal 1 (T1), on the departures side, so you can grab something after check-in and security. It’s the familiar green-and-yellow counter setup with the sandwich line, so if you know your usual order at home, you can order it here without thinking too hard.

Prices run higher than city outlets: expect a 6-inch veggie sub to land in the ₹200–₹250 range and most footlongs to push past ₹400. You still get the standard choice of breads, from Italian to Honey Oat, plus the usual sliced cheese and veg toppings laid out across the chilled counter.

Non-veg options match the chain playbook: the Chicken Teriyaki and Chicken Tikka subs are on the board, typically a bit more expensive than the veggie picks by ₹40–₹80 per sandwich. If you’re tight on time before a domestic departure, a 6-inch sub and a drink usually come together in under 7–10 minutes, as long as there isn’t a large group ahead.

There’s a basic combo structure: add a fountain drink and a cookie or chips to your sub and you’re usually adding about ₹120–₹180 to the bill, depending on size and drink choice. Bottled water and soft drinks sit in the front cooler, useful if you want to stock up before a T1 flight where buy-on-board drinks can run more expensive.

Seating nearby is limited in this part of T1, so plan to carry your sandwich to the gate area benches if the small tables are occupied. One practical tip: during evening bank times at HYD (around the 19:00–22:00 departure wave), lines at Subway stretch quickly, so if your flight boards at, say, 20:30, aim to be in line before 19:45 to avoid cutting it close.
