I was going to post a comment in the same spirit. While Subway is a "chain", the stores are generally all franchised (I say generally, because I don't know for sure if any stores are corporately owned, and it's not worth the time to look it up). So, that "chain" store is very likely owned by local folks who would have put some decent capital behind it to get it off the ground.
Personally, I usually have a good experience with Subway, and would view eating at one locally pretty much the same as eating at a local independent establishment.
