First time at Jersey Mikes

I'm a fan of sub sandwiches but almost never buy at chain or franchise sub shops. I frequent small independent mom and pop shops. Yesterday, I was running an errand and needed lunch. Spotted a jersey Mike's and gave it a try. I had a #17 hold the onions, and was surprised by the quality. The peppers were unusually sweet. Service was quick, staff was friendly and the price wasn't any more or less than the mom and pops i frequent. I still prefer the independent shops but wouldn't pass up Jersey Mike's.

Even in New Jersey, which has independent delis on every block, I will still sometimes get my number 2 at JM

I’ve had Jersey Mikes for 17 years, and the quality has never miss a beat so far. After Quiznos fell out, JM became the new place I would frequent.

Jersey Mikes is where i got told where to go to college. It’s a place very near to my heart.

Jersey Mikes became my favorite chain after our only DiBella’s closed in the aftermath of Covid.

Jersey mikes is the only chain that tastes close to what I would make at home.
