Typical American Subway restaurant in San Jose, Costa Rica. Most (if not all) of what you get in the US is found here. They also offer a variety breakfast. The salads are not chopped and the dressings are like what you find in the US. A very normal Subway experience even though not in the US.

I was very hungry, it was late and everything else in the area was not suitable for vegetarians.
I decided to try the experience and were extremely satisfied: very good custom vegetarian sandwich, excellent service, reasonable price.

I really enjoy Subway, I think it is kinda low-fat fast-food and the price is good, you can customize your sandwich and so on.

Might there is not many side options, however the soups are quite good.

Also the points program rocks

We went in here during a Travelsphere tour of Costa Rica. It was great to find Subway where we knew what to expect. We were not disappointed. There was a long, slow queue, but I guess this is because the place is so popular. The staff spoke excellent English and made us welcome. They also pointed out the special offers we were eligible for (something like a free drink because we had 3 cookies I believe). The price was not cheap, but was reasonable. They happily let me pay by credit card (other places had first needed to see our passport as proof of ID). The toilets were a bit understated for the number of customers, only one male and one female could use them at a time. But on the day they were like an oasis in a dessert.
