Caruthers is a small town just off the 41, about 15 miles south of downtown Fresno. About 2,600 people live there, according to the 2020 census. It has one of the country’s best-rated Subways. The Subway at 2459 W. Tahoe Ave. has 349 reviews on Google and an average rating of 4.80.

The Subway is attached to a Valero gas station and a laundromat. Many of the Caruther Subway’s reviews praised the staff’s customer service, with several people detailing how they’re always greeted with a smile.
