Employee touched Raw meat steak for the cheese steak and wanted to make me a cold sub right after and didn't change gloves.

Nice atmosphere, decent food the parking lot on the other hand is awful. I might expect this in some backwater location but on the main drag in crystal lake.... Wow read more

Jersey Mike's Subs - Awful parking lot - Delis Near Me - Crystal Lake, Illinois

We probably order sandwiches once a week. They are a football game day staple. We have been watching for a few weeks now, the shrinkage of the meat and cheese. Originally, the meat overlapped the bread, I could only eat half and save the other half for the next days lunch. Now, we are still hungry. I might as well just get a bag of rolls and eat 1. My husband commented on how Cindy it looked while being assembled and of course only got a mumbled reply. I don't know what your response could be. Just greed? Not making enough $ for a $9.00 dollar sandwich. That's pretty ridiculous to start with, merely a convenience. Should you rename them Trump Special #1, #2, #3 etc? Do you need to blame someone? May as well be the liar in chief. This is so annoying. From now on I will definitely be making my own sandwiches. I am sure this will have no impact on you, but I may not be the only one. I hope you feel the pinch that we are all feeling. And I am happy to help with that read more

I Ordered classic Italian, Mike's way, was worst sub sandwich I ever had, way too much vinegar and herbs and spices were bitter. Husband ordered Chicken Bacon Ranch which was also terrible, way too salty. read more

We order from jersey mikes frequently, but will not be back to this location. At any other location, they will make more than one hot sandwich on the grill at a time to keep up pace with orders. Not this location! I order on the app so that I can simply pick up and go. It takes me about 15 minutes to get there, and I'll even wait 5 minutes before leaving. Ive ordered the mikes hot Italian twice, we get there and both times they have my husband's sandwich done, but my hot sandwich isn't even started! The first time, while they did one hot sandwich at a time, I was patient because they were busy. It took an extra 20 minutes. Whatever. The 2nd time, my husband goes to pick up, and my sandwich is not even the next sandwich to go on the grill. And if you ask questions about how long or why they haven't started it, you'll get snarky responses. They were slicing meat for multiple sandwiches and lining them up, but not even starting one on the grill... it was mind boggling to watch. And frustrating when you're hungry. My husband was visibly frustrated about it, so they all went and hid in the back room to avoid eye contact with him. I'm sure he upset them with his questions and requesting a refund instead of getting the sandwich. But they said they didn't even know how to give refunds. So he was stuck there waiting for the sandwich that was ordered at 5:30pm, and not ready until 6:10pm. Over 30 minutes to make a sandwich.... And they weren't that busy. One sandwich on the grill at a time is just insane to me.... Sorry to the employees who had to deal with my hangry husband. But maybe let's pick up the pace yea? read more

The service at this store was well below any jersey mikes iv ever been at before. They two girls were very rude , and when they messed up my sandwich by putting yellow mustard instead of honey and I nicely mentioned it they proceeded to tell me how they had three different types of mustard and I NEEDED to know for next time, they then proceed to give me a nasty look and slam the new top half of my sandwich on the counter before cutting it out of frustration . I will never come to this store again. DO BETTER. read more

Walked in and immediately got glared at negatively. Very unwelcoming from the start. They didn't even give me a second to think without pushing questions my way. Nothing but frowns on their faces. Possibly a simple misunderstanding but I very clearly said I wanted rosemary bread and got wheat instead. Doesn't matter if they don't like their job, you're still supposed to have a smile on your face. read more

I love jersey mikes! They are always friendly and get my food made right away. Whether it's an online order or in store order. You can it's made fresh. It's a typically sub place as far as ambiance read more

The employees were not welcoming at all made us feel very uncomfortable! Not sure what their deal was! The ice also tastes disgusting!

My son went all Al Pe for the first time. He had never eaten from Jersey mikes. He told me the staff was fantastic. They helped him work through the ordering and what he wanted. He normally get subs from a different business. He explained what he likes from that company and the staff worked with him to make sure he had a sandwich that was what he wanted. My kid even said he would try something different next time he enjoyed the sandwich he got. I am so thankful for this wonderful experience my kid had. Try this location out. read more

Yummy!! Thank You for Your Awesome Service! You Rock! And I love Mike's Way!! Have a great day!

I had the BEST sub during my last visit to this shop! The staff was super friendly, and Bennett, in particular, was so kind and made the experience truly awesome. Highly recommend! read more

we love our Jersey Mike fast fresh sub picnic place & order regularly... It's our favorite SUB

My friend + I bought similar sandwiches. Hers had way more meat than my sandwich. Mine had way more bread than meat. Employee was sassy. Would not go back here. read more

The Mikes Philly "Giant" is 90% bread and 10% meat, $14.25 of disappointment. Their photos show you a generous portion of steak but in no way is this the way you get it. How stupid can a place be to show one thing and sell you another. They are what you call "Quick Change Artists". I left one star which shows just how many times I went there and plan to revisit this gip join. Jersey Mikes needs to go to Philadelphia and learn how to make a real Philly. Good luck staying in business selling these sandwiches. Owen Scheppman read more

Food is pretty basic, but it is consistent. Orders are made very quickly and they have always been accurate.

This was always my favorite location but yesterday the girl working the topping station (probably around 330 or so) decided to wipe down dirty counters with a rag, cough, and then not change her gloves while she was putting toppings on my sub. Best part, when I asked if that rag was clean, she was kind of disrespectful to me. "Why would I be using it if it wasn't clean" and rolled her eyes. Employee doing the slicing was awesome though so shoutout to you. read more

The sandwiches we ordered were very good. The staff did a good job of preparing the sandwiches. Otherwise it was downhill after that. The 2 gents behind the counter were complaining about another customer right in front or us. The place was also filthy. None of the tables were clean and there was garbage on the floor. read more

My teen worked at Crystal Lake Jersey Mike's. She was informed by a friend that they tested positive for Covid and she was in close contact. She started developing symptoms that evening and was extremely ill by the next morning. Crystal Lake Jersey Mike's still wanted her to come in, and or get her own shifts covered if she couldn't come in. She was so ill I could barely get her out of bed to get a Covid test, she barely left her room for days and had us very worried. The fact that they would force her to come in or trade shifts to get time off while that ill and put others at risk, is unacceptable and scary since they are in the public and handling food. I worry about the standards and if they have other sick employees coming in like that. My last straw was them telling her she needed to come in and work a double for the person that covered some of her shifts while she was still running a fever and completely congested. We won't be eating at a Jersey Mike's ever again. read more

As far as a chain sandwich place, Jersey Mike's is my new favorite out of all of them. Every time I come to this location, the staff is friendly and service is fast. I've also never had a problem with any of the food I got there. The menu selection is good as they offer both cold and hot subs. They really don't seem to be as stingy with the amount of meat or ingredients they put on your sandwich such as other sandwich places like Jimmy John's and Subway. I'll definitely be a regular customer. read more

See all

Hot or Cold, they're all extremely tasty! The first time we tried Jersey Mike's I had the Club Supreme and I knew we had our new sandwich place to replace Subway/Jimmy John's.The second, & every other time since our first visit, I've ordered the Big Kahuna Cheese Steak. I haven't had many other cheese steaks to compare, but it is definitely my favorite hot sandwich. read more

What happened! This place was my favorite sandwich place. I just went in and walked out before even getting my sandwich. "We don't have any beef" is what I was told. Then I was offered "some warm beef in the back" for my cold sandwich. Even the guy working there looked confused as to why this was happening. Come on guys! It's 1 in the afternoon and you don't have beef? I have always been a fan of Jersey Mike's and this location hasn't let me down until today. It was a completely new staff that I didn't recognize at all. Disappointed I can't have my usual number 9. Where's the beef? This place is usually pretty good, but after today I don't know when I'll be back. And I was a regular. read more

Very nice staff subs are very good.I like the shore points that earns ya free subs.Get there before noon.Because this place gets busy fast .All the subs I've tried were very good.Have it mikes way lol read more

Jersey Mike's Subs - Delis Near Me - Crystal Lake, Illinois

I love Jersey Mike's! Not only are their sandwiches fresh and fast, but they are always friendly, willing to help in any way! A standout from many other sub places! I have an injured hip making it EXCRUTIATING to get in and out of car and they were kind enough to bring my order to the curb for me. God bless! read more

Did a curbside pick up. System ran very smoothly. Sandwiches are huge and fresh! They load it up with topping!

I visited your store at 8:30pm. Your open sign was off and we verified if you were still open. They said yes welcome in. Before we ordered we were notified that we could not order any hot sandwiches because the grill was off. He said that it was turned off because it takes 10-15 mins to cool off. I asked what time do they turn it off since the store closes at 9pm and he told me that I would have to arrive before 8:20pm. I am a little stunned that you would cut off half of your menu 40 mins before you close especially during a pandemic when restaurants are closing everyday. We walked out without ordering and went next door. I saw another family leave without ordering also. As a business owner, I would be sad to know that my employees are allowing my business to lose customers. Next door I saw them receive 10 people who all ordered hot sandwiches and it made me wonder how many customers could have been lost based on this policy or employee discretion. Please note: I was given a coupon by the employee there but I don't think I will be back to use it. read more

If there's one thing that generally bores me it's usually a sub place. However Jersey mikes is breath of fresh air. They have deli counter where they cut the meat fresh for your sandwich. There's not a million options which is nice. If I go out to eat I like having some preferences its great. Once in while though its nice to have a sandwich made consistently with out being completely custom. I've been here about 3 times and its pretty consistent unless I switch around between peppers or pickles. The foods always fresh and the sandwiches are well put together. The employees also really appear to know what their doing. What tastes good with what etc... Not every places has that luxury where you say "well i have absolutely no clue what I want what do you suggest?" They helped me make my decision based on the type of sandwich I picked. It was great they knew exactly what to put as far as other preferences. Like peppers pickles or other. Even though they have a basic sandwich model that comes with lettuce, tomato, spice oil and vinegar. Another thing that is fabulous here is that my fiance just found out he's gluten intolerant. Its so hard to find places he can eat. They have gluten free bread and they ask allergy or preference. Because they have a specially way of preparing it if its an allergy or intolerance. So that there is no cross contamination. which is wonderful. I've never seen a place that was so awesome about gluten intolerances. (Most places are like why are you here if you have gluten intolerances or why are you asking about gluten? ) I suggest if you like subs and are bored of the sub shop same ole options. I also HIGHLY suggest if you have gluten intolerances. They won't make you feel awkward about your issue. They will also be very warm and caring about the gluten intolerance. read more

By far the worst CONSISTENT experience. Have always enjoyed Jersey Mike's sandwiches and they are pretty good on the quality front. Other than that, they have the worst costumer service of any restaurant (fast food or sit down) I've been too. I'd love to say it was a one time experience, but they consistently are rude, talk down to customers, and just seem like you are an inconvenience just ordering a sandwich. Try to give them the benefit of doubt and to no shock it's the same no matter who is working/in charge. Haven't had one good experience, you are better off driving 5 extra minutes to the one in lake in the hills to a very nice and friendly Jersey Mike's. Literally refer to customers faces calling them Karen's when they have to repeat themselves. And the lady was being nice asking them what they said! Grow up. read more

Sub sandwiches are pretty good here. Lots of meat on them. Nice patio too. Place is still pretty new, so it's been fairly crowded each time I went. So...a little better than Jimmy John's I think, definitely more crowded. About the same as Subway in terms of quality, maybe even a tad better. Way better than Quiznos. read more

I see this place is almost four years old - I would not have guessed that - the place seemed very well kept. The day I was there, everything moved fairly quickly and I was out in about 5 minutes. Great sandwich as I've come to expect from Jersey Mike's. Staff was pretty nice as well. I noticed a few disparaging comments in other reviews - maybe I was lucky or they weren't - or maybe the crew there now has stepped up. At any rate, I'd be happy to go back and likely will sometime soon. read more

So I'm a newbie here. I was a bit apprehensive when I first looked at the menu but the behind the counter staff made me feel at home. They took the time to explain everything and said they can customize my choices. Anyhow, I ended up with a mini...nice size.. and because I was a first time visitor they handed me a free cookie. The only real negative I have of the place is the 2 door arrangement. As one opens the wind blows through and my sandwich froze. read more

Jersey Mikes has good subs and very friendly service. I like the mini option, still plenty of meat, cheese and toppings for me.

THE BEST SUBS EVER! I love a number 9 it's my favorite by far. I love the bacon they put on the sandwich, I also love it mikes way. I also love the chipotle cheese steak it has some amazing flavors. My boyfriends favorite is a number 13. The staff at this location is amazing to. After having sandwiches here, I'll never go anywhere else. read more

Okay if they sliced the beef or provolone any thinner ... there would be none ! No wonder why they let the same person slice it, they probably get a bonus. Service today was slow but friendly. Won't be back. read more

Everyone is always so nice and energetic here! Always nice when you get greeted right away as you walk in. Food aways tastes great.

Foodwise, compared to other sub shops in the Crystal lake area, it's subpar. The location is not great for parking due to neighboring restaurants. Granted, I went on a day where there was a charity event and the older lady in front of us ordered 6 sandwiches and kept getting confused as to which sandwich was which. The tuna sandwich was average. I liked the addition of oil and vinegar getting it "mikes way" though. The only thing saving this from a lower review was the people. Every employee was in the weeds but tried chatting with waiting customers and always smiled. They were accommodating fo the older woman who didn't understand the sandwich numbering system by using the sandwich names. We waited in line for a while but the friendliness of the staff made up for it. read more

The customer service is fantastic. Johns the new guy there, very personable, and helpful. The employees have always proven to be very customer service driven and I LOVE THAT! XD I used to eat Potbellys. I still eat at Subway, and I sometimes venture into a Quiznos... though not really. Out of the entire group though I like Jersey Mikes the most... or at least I like THIS Jersey Mikes the most. The food is exceptionally delicious for a "going to lunch and it's nearby meal". So... Yay Jersey Mikes. (never quite sure how to end these reviews) read more

I've been going to jersey mikes for a long time now but went to the crystal lake location in front of the movies for the first time on Monday and I have to say, it was the best customer service experience I've had at any jersey mikes. There were 3 guys & a girl, I came in around 1145am. Every single one engaged in some kind of conversation with customers, made me laugh and overall I had a great experience. I live woodstock and I am definitely making the drive every time I'm craving jersey mikes!! Recommend you going there read more

Food was tasty but not impressive. Maybe we went on an off day - but the staff was not helpful to us first timers - they were more interested in talking with each other than answering our questions about menu items. I'd be willing to give them another try but they would not be my first pick. read more

10/8/2015 This was mine and my husbands first time here! Just have to say for a casual quick sandwich this is the place to go! The gentleman behind the counter (wish I got his name) was outstanding as to accommodate to ours and others needs/wants. I informed him when we were there that it was our first time, he was genuinely accommodating . Even when we were eating our meal he went out of his way to check on us. The sandwich was very good and customer service was outstanding. We will definitely be back! Thank You read more
