Quiznos

Gate-side Quiznos option in Terminal 1

This Quiznos sits post-security in Terminal 1 at Richmond International, a quick walk from most gates in the compact concourse. It’s a straightforward stop for toasted subs when you don’t want to sit at a full-service place. Expect standard airport pricing: most regular sandwiches land in the $9–$13 range before chips and a drink.

The menu matches the classic Quiznos lineup, so you’ll see Turkey Ranch & Swiss, Classic Italian, and Chicken Carbonara on the board, plus basic soups and salads. Toasting takes about 3–6 minutes per order, so you can usually get in and out in under 15 minutes unless a flight just dumped a full load of passengers. Portions are the usual 6" and 12" options, and they do combo deals with a fountain drink and a bag of chips.

Breakfast hours typically start around the first bank of departures, roughly 5:00 a.m., with the store staying open until early evening to catch the last outbound flights. In the morning, they pivot to egg-and-cheese sandwiches and coffee; later in the day, cold drinks and bottled water in the cooler sit at the expected $3–$5 airport markup. Seating is limited to a few small tables nearby, so most people grab their sub and head back toward their gate chairs.

If you care about speed, order a standard build like a Turkey or Italian and skip heavy customizations so they can run it straight through the toaster. Watch the cutting board and toppings line for a second; if you see a backlog of half-made sandwiches, expect a 10-minute wait instead of five. One practical tip: hit Quiznos right after you clear security, then walk to your gate with food in hand, since RIC’s single-terminal layout means you’re rarely more than a 5-minute stroll from boarding.
