Enfield Down To 1 Subway Shop As Hazardville Location Closes Its Doors

ENFIELD, CT — Not long ago, there were three Subway sandwich shops in Enfield. Not quite as many as there are Dunkin' Donuts sites (eight), but a significant number nonetheless. With the recent closure of the Hazardville store, however, there is just one remaining location in town.

A sign on the door at 319 Hazard Avenue reads, "Thank you for all your business over the years. This location is [permanently] closed."

The note directs hungry consumers to the last remaining Enfield franchise, in the Mountain Laurel Shoppes at 786 Enfield Street, or to the location on Mountain Road in neighboring Suffield.

A spot in the Riverview Plaza on Elm Street, across from Asnuntuck Community College, closed in March 2023.

Founded in 1965 in Bridgeport as Pete's Super Submarines, the sandwich chain was renamed Subway in 1972. Franchise operation began two years later in Wallingford, and Subway became the fastest-growing franchise in the world in 2015.

There are currently more than 21,000 stores in the United States alone. Its international headquarters are in Shelton.
