This location opened I believe 1/21/25 so it is still fairly new. I have been here 4 times now,…read morethe first visit was a few days after they opened. Naturally, there was a new store glitch with the CC machine so I ordered online while in the store. And have ordered on the app since then just to have my sandwich ready or near ready when I get to the store. No issues for me & they have a frequent purchase program when you sign up. I have ordered the Classic Chicken club twice, the American Wagyu Club & most recently the Chicken Cheesesteak. The club sandwiches were quite stuffed & almost hard to eat (not something I'd eat in my car!). I did find the hand pulled turkey on the dry side though. I also stopped getting salt added as the first time it was a bit heavy handed with the bacon on the clubs. The Wagyu was good, may have to try it solo at some point. Also, my first club was the Medium 10" size & I couldn't finish it, all "Small" 8" sandwiches since then. I was disappointed with the Chicken Cheesesteak. It was not as "stuffed" as the cold sandy's. And the Chicken had an odd texture, a bit chewy. But cheesy as you can hopefully see in the pix. For dining in, they do have about 5 tables. So that's an option if desired. Will be going back to try a few of the other options & will update this review as needed. :)

The bar is high. The bread must be right. The ratios must be just so. There are generations of reputations at stake. And yet, here I am, awarding five stars to a chain. Jersey Mike's Subs has no business being this good in this zip code, but it is. The sandwiches are consistently solid, the bread soft with just enough backbone, the meats sliced to order with a reassuring whir and volume that says someone cares. You can get it Mike's Way and watch the oil and vinegar rain down like a benediction. It isn't theater. Its craft, executed with the steady competence of people who understand that how you spend your lunch money matters. In a region where family owned establishments will always reign supreme, Jersey Mike's is the crème de la crème of the chain sub world. That alone would earn them praise. Consistency is a virtue. Knowing that your Italian sub will taste the way it did last month and the month before that is a small but meaningful comfort in this chaotic world. But this particular location earns its fifth star for reasons that have nothing to do with provolone. Our school district has called on them more than once when an event needed catering and the budget was held together with hope and dollar store duct tape. They are quick with a discount code or a special price, the sort of quiet assistance that keeps a fundraiser from becoming a fiasco. Then there was the day we hosted a fundraiser for a family displaced by tragedy. When the owners learned why we were raising money, they donated every dime that we brought in. Not a percentage. Not merely the profits. Every single cent raised. There is no corporate memo or marketing guideline that can manufacture that kind of gesture. That is humanity. It's neighbors taking care of neighbors. I am certain their goal was not to secure my personal undying loyalty. Nevertheless, they have it. Five stars, not just for the sandwiches, but also for the people behind the counter who understand that a sub shop can also be a small engine of decency.

Service is excellent, but the pizza is a little expensive and not extraordinary.

This place was my salvation when I was a little pregnant lady that could sometimes barely keep food down and also an emotional support pizza place when I needed a slice and a soda to make the day better again. One of my favorite Sicilian slices of all time - even when I am too impatient like today, the pizza holds its own even if there's no time to get it heated up. Of note, today's slice was a grandma slice with mushrooms and I absolutely demolished it with the rare find of a Stewart's Birch Beer. The staff are warm and funny and as a short girl at the counter barking her order, I adored that one of the owners popped out and joked that he thought the voice was coming from someone talking to themselves.
