Subway Opens in Needham

Hungry Needham residents now have a new spot to pick up a sandwich, with the opening of Subway last week.

Located at 1187 Highland Ave., near the under-renovation Sudbury Farms, the restaurant is also right across the street from the Needham High School campus—making it a convenient stop for hungry high schoolers looking for a quick bite between school and practice.

Needham Subway franchisee Doug Sudell also operates a Subway in downtown Boston at City Hall Plaza and has also worked for the company for four years in New York City, according to a press release.

“I am excited to be able to bring Subway’s delicious, fresh product to the people of Needham,” Sudell said in the release. “I look forward to meeting residents, and I invite everyone to stop by and try our world-famous submarine sandwiches.”

Before opening the Subway shop in Boston, Sudell was CEO of a social service agency in Hartford, CT, according to the release.

“I look forward to becoming part of the Needham community as an employer and small business owner,” he said.

At Subway, customers can design their own sandwiches—choosing from a variety of gourmet breads baked fresh daily and meats, vegetables, cheeses and condiments, and watching while their sandwich is built right in front of them.

Along with their trademark sandwiches, the new Needham Subway will sell a variety of salads, soups and breakfast sandwiches.

The Needham Subway is open Mondays through Fridays from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.

The restaurant is also hiring—drop in for an application or apply online at subway.com, under Careers in the top navigation bar.
