success is not solely determined by which franchise you choose, but success will also be determined by location as well as the composition of the members of the population around that location. differently franchises will succeed differently in different locations of different neighborhoods.

just for fun in this thread...Schlotzsky's Deli, because there are not that many around and their food is amazing, they typically draw a decent crowd

Neither my wife nor I particularly like Schlotzsky's.

I don't see any of those on there, but Ben & Jerry's looks promising. Really, it all depends on location though.

Port City Java is originally from my town...Wilmington, NC

From what I can see as one of their customers, their locations do great and the $50k investment sounds reasonable. IMO, they give Starbucks a run for their money.
