Penn Station ranked No. 9 limited-service chain overall in 2015 Nation’s Restaurant News Consumer Picks report.

April 17, 2015 // Franchising.com // MILFORD, OHIO - Penn Station East Coast Subs, the fast-casual restaurant known for its grilled, made-to-order sub sandwiches, hand-squeezed lemonade and fresh-cut fries, was named the best sandwich brand on the 2015 Consumer Picks survey produced by Nation’s Restaurant News and WD Partners.

In its fifth year, the survey provides feedback and benchmarking data based on attribute rankings for restaurant brands. The 2015 Consumer Picks report included more than 42,000 vetted consumer ratings and over 170 restaurant brands. Survey respondents rated chains on 10 attributes, including food quality, cleanliness, customer service, the likelihood of recommending, menu variety, reputation, crave-ability and atmosphere. Those ratings were weighted and combined to create an overall score.

Penn Station tied for No. 9 overall brand in the limited-service category, leading all other sandwich brands as the segment winner. This is Penn Station’s first year in the report.

“We are thrilled that consumers recognize and value our commitment to providing superior customer service and the best tasting grilled sandwiches, fries and lemonade around,” said Penn Station President Craig Dunaway. “We want to thank all of our franchisees, managing owners, general managers and team members for their hard work. There is no better recognition than from the customers themselves, so we value this award greatly.”
