I've experimented with their menu, but just really am not a big fan. I give them 3 stars however, because they give you HUGE sandwiches that are filled with fresh and tasty ingredients... just somehow it didn't work for me. My workplace orders Jetties (Foxhall) for lunch pretty regularly... I do enjoy the Steps Beach sandwich, without the lettuce and I add on cucumbers and sprouts (see picture!)... it's a pretty good one. The Sconset Sandwich with added carved turkey is also quite good. But at the end of the day, I'm just not a big fan of the thick-sliced deli meat... and I think their sandwiches end up being more about how much you can pack between two slices rather than being about a good, simple, delicious sandwich. read more

Jetties - Steps Beach sandwich, without the lettuce (cucumbers and sprouts add-ons) at Jetties Foxhall - Sandwiches Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Currently sitting outside of Jetties cause I just finished my sandwich and it is a beautiful day outside! Was going to Foxhall since I've never been here before and this was on my map so I decided to go. It is a very cute place with suburban/historic vibes. A tiny bit pricey for my taste, but by Georgetown area standards very reasonable! I "built" my own sandwich and was honestly very surprised that I did not have to add any extra hot sauce, salt, pepper, etc like I normally do! Definitely want to come back for the ice cream because it is pretty cheap for Georgetown standards. Four stars for the food + 1 star for the atmosphere. read more

Jetties is my absolutely favorite sandwich spot in town! And they have something to suit all tastes! If you're a vegetarian, the Sconset and the Pocomo are sure to hit the spot. Their probably best known for their Nobadeer, roasted turkey and stuffing with cranberry sauce and mayonnaise on sourdough, and it really is phenomenal! I also love the Surfside: roasted turkey, havarti, bacon, avocado, whole grain mustard on sourdough. So far, the only sandwich that doesn't really do anything for me is the lobster roll. Yes, the sandwiches are a bit on the pricey end (most are about $10), but the servings are generous and the ingredients are quality. I will say the Foxhall location has kind of weird hours and are sometimes randomly closed, so call ahead if you're coming from a distance! Definitely no sandwich I'd rather pack for a picnic! read more

I love Jetties. I have been going there since I went to school down the street. I always get the Nobadeer with caramelized onions, and recently started to get it as a wrap. I love their sourdough, but there is too much goodness going on and it falls out and drips all over. In a wrap, it is all contained... it's also less carbs... I hope. Great Place! read more

Jetties - Nobadeer with caramelized onions - Sandwiches Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Their sandwiches are good, no doubt. However, it seems expensive for what it is, a sandwich. The breads and ingredients aren't exactly gourmet, they're just well put together tried and true sandwiches. Their shakes are very good as well. It's a good location when you want lunch around Georgetown, but don't want to deal with tourists. Residents, georgetown students, and nearby white collars know where this place exists, hidden inside Foxhall on the other side of Georgetown's campus. They have plenty of outdoor seating when the weather is nice. Parking is all residential, so you're better off only coming here if you can walk it. read more

Ordered online for pickup. They use the toasttab service on their website. Restaurant got my order wrong. Ruined our dinner and wasted our money. I called and asked for a refund, they told me there was nothing they could do because I ordered online with doordash, which I did not. It was their fault for putting the wrong food in the bag but they do not take responsibility for their mistakes. read more

I mean, we can use more sandwich shops in D.C., so I appreciate Jetties. Jetties is good. I like that they reduce waste with their paper packaging. The kids love it. AND: Don't forget to use your punch card for that free sandwich! read more

Five stars for the Nobadeer! It's the perfect combination of Thanksgiving in a sandwich. This is by far my favorite sandwich at Jetties. read more

Jetties - Sandwiches Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

so ive finally tried jetties, better late than never i typically dont go to sandwich shops because it think its a waste of money but i was looking for a quick meal and this has been on peripheral radar for quite some time. i got the surfside with their sweet pickles. i wanted dill but they don't have dill pickles..never been in a sandwich shop that didnt have dill/kosher pickles but oh well. the sandwich itself was fine. it was filling. i wasn't amazed by it. i thought it was average. i wish they had better soda options because every now and again i like having a good soda with a sandwich. my main issue is the price is too much. i paid almost $14 for this sandwich and didn't have leftovers. what on earth.... parking is on the street and its not hard to find the main attraction , for me, are the picnic tables, b'c its a good place to watch traffic go by and eat. overall: im glad i tried it, not likely to come back read more

Excellent nom nom place! One of the easiest places to place an order. As soon as you walk in you are greeted with a stand that contains individual menus that you mark off your order and write down your name. This is a great way to order for people who never been here. On my first visit it was relatively quick order. I ordered Tom Nevers which is pretty much is Turkey Club and it was amazing! Super Nom Nom! Each ingredient was very good and fresh. I was able to taste cheese which is not very common in sandwiches. Usually cheese is overpowered by other ingredients. This is an excellent place and I recommend it to everyone read more

Food is always great and the staff has been there for awhile. The woman who works at the register during lunch can be a bit rude, sadly. I thought it may have been a bad day, but it has now happened about three times/every time we have been back. Eye rolls and heavy sighs seem out of place in this family friendly and neighborhood friendly place. read more

We're new to the neighborhood and really wanted to like this place. I bought my kids ice cream. The ice cream was not packed into the cone and it almost immediately fell off, in the store, after I paid. I tell the woman behind the counter, and apologize for the mess. She cleans it up. We wait for her to come back and ask her to make a second. She does. Hands it off, and then charges me for the second ice cream. That's fine, but we definitely will not be back. read more

Jetties - Sandwiches Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Overpriced, disgusting, trash establishment with the worst service. The employees are all incompetent and horrible with exception to just one, I do feel badly for him. This place receives nice reviews and survives off rich white patrons from the palisades who have vineyard NW goggles on. Even if you are the same time, your money, time and health are served better literally anywhere else. Would also not be surprised if they have a few health code violations pop up given what I saw last time there. But again, do yourself a favor and stay away. read more

Order from here all the time, very disappointed with my Muskeget salad. No goodness. Came with only mix greens and carrot, clementine and my protein which looked like half the chicken breast. Missing peanut, crunchy noodles, scallions. What's the point, I want the goodness. If it not burn it's not complete. To be fair sometime they get it right. read more

One of my biggest criticisms of sandwich shops is rooted in my wish for a thick stacked sandwich. The Kind of sandwich where your teeth have to sink through a mile of deli meat and cheese. Jetties is the place. I must confess that the majority the time that I come here I get the same sandwich -- the nobadeer. But it's Thanksgiving on two slices of bread. What's not to love? Thick sliced turkey, Flavorful stuffing, bright, tart, amazing cranberry sauce, The perfect amount of mayo, all on fantastic bread. A client of mine often gets jetties for lunches at their office. They are catering looks legit too. Jetties is so good, my girlfriend says she wants their nobadeer at her wedding. So there's that. read more

Probably the best sandwich shop in the Foxhall/Georgetown area. While their creations aren't the cheapest (double Subway/Jimmy John's on Wisconsin), you can bet they'll be tasty. From vegetarian friendly options like their Brent Point and Sconset to their hearty and savory Dreamland and Nobadeer (recommended for Thanksgiving cravings), Jetties has a specialty for everybody. I have to knock their soups a little; I was pretty disappointed with the Maryland crab soup- the size was small, the crab scarce, and the soup a bit watery. The sandwiches though, are second to none. read more

I like the quaint feel & look of this mom & pop type shop... the sandwiches are simple yet satisfying & fulfilling! The meat isn't just some pre-sliced deli meat (i.e. fresh vegetables, roasted turkey that's been sliced) they use premium quality ingredients! You definitely have to make sure to be there before noon or you will be waiting! If your in the area, you should definitely stop by and try it out... read more

Excellent as always. Awesome customer service. Can't wait to go back. Tried 5 different signature sandwiches with my friends and we all love everything we had. read more

4 stars for food, 2 stars for prices. I had the Orange Street sandwich, bag of chips, soft drink, and a cookie. The sandwich was good. Nothing to rave home about. Prices for sandwiches are fair but everything else is way overpriced. 2.75 for a tiny 1.5oz bag of chips, 2.75 for a canned soda...just ridiculous. I will not be coming back. read more

WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON???!!?!?! Are you looking for a sandwich...I was and then I found Jetties. Which location you ask...doesn't matter that are all awesome. The only bad location is a location that isn't Jetties and it is Subway or Taylor or some shit like that. First off they have awesome bread, mayo, roast beef, turkey, cheese, mustard, onions, cranberry, stuffing, celery, lettuce and all other ingredients. Their signature sandwiches blow my socks off. Their salads are effing unreal. Secret move...order a milkshake they are awesome. My wife always has to tell me to slow down because I have lactose issues which brings me to the Jetties bathrooms but it is worth it because the bathrooms are always clean clean and nice and a great place to take your time and make a deposit in the toilet bank. The mural on the wall makes me feel like I am on Nantucket and the staff is always friendly. I just can't stress enough how awesome Jetties is much I love it and how much I like going here and how awesome the food is. Its also completely affordable. They should be charging $20 per sandwich I mean come on!!! Its great! Its Jetties! Eat HERE! or just continue to miss out!!!! read more

Cannot say enough good things about this place. Great option for a fast and healthy lunch. You have the option to choose from specialty sandwiches and salads or a create your own option. They also have outdoor tables for when it's nice out. I ordered the sconset sandwich and requested to add turkey (which is freshly carved). The sandwich is pretty big but worth every bite. All of the ingredients were very fresh and delicious. We came with a large group and they were very quick in getting our orders out. A friend also ordered a create your own turkey, cranberry, and avocado sandwich which looked amazing. I would definitely consider ordering trying a sandwich with cranberry in the future! read more

fantastic sandwiches. used to go here fairly regularly before the pandemic and then started going again a few weeks ago. food is still great and the staff I've encountered during my recent visits have been friendly + helpful. In addition to good sandwiches, the place also has good chips, cookies, drinks and ice cream. nice indoor and outdoor seating and parking is usually quite easy. read more

Living just footsteps away from Jetties, I hoped for nothing more than to love this place and keep it on my list of regular stops. Unfortunately, after visiting Jetties twice, I have given up on that hope. The ordering style of Jetties is both unorthodox and practical. You mark the sandwich/salad you desire, listing any amendments you wish to make, and hand the sheet to the cashier. The cashier than yells out your order and you wait. I found this interesting and exciting in comparison to the drab ordering methodology that is prevalent at most sandwich joints. On my first visit I was feeling a bit traditional and I ordered the Tom Nevers, Jetties' variant of the BLT. It was good, but nowhere near $11.95 good. For $11.95 I was expecting groundbreaking ingredients and vibrant flavors but all I experienced was an average sandwich. I brushed off the experience, blaming the mediocre exploit on my ordering decision. On my second visit, I ordered the Nobadeer, based off of recommendations from both neighbors and Yelpers. Once again, I was disappointed. The stuffing was overwhelming, drowning out the freshly cut turkey that I was looking forward to. Additionally, the cranberry sauce was applied too liberally and also dominated the sandwich. I also noticed something else upon this visit: they use Pepperidge Farm bread (the same I use in my home)! This was disconcerting discovery; why should I go to Jetties when I can go to the more reasonably priced Palisades Deli and Market? Overall, the price and quality combination leads me to give Jetties two stars. I simply will never be back and also never recommend it. read more

Ah, the sandwich. So simple, yet so satisfying. Jetties knows sammies, so it's a good place to pick up an overstuffed one full of fresh and flavorful ingredients...right after payday. The Sconset is $7.95, a tad pricey for hummus, muenster cheese, sprouts, tomato, carrots, cucumbers, and avocado spread on multi-grain. It's delicious, tho. The Madaket -- tuna salad, muenster, cucumber, lettuce, and tomato on muti-grain -- has the same price tag. It, too, is delicious and rivals my favorite tuna sammich of all-time, Panera's (I know, just trust me on that one). Sandwiches are à la carte, so if you want chips or a drink your lunch price ratchets up even more. Jetties is a cute and cheery little deli, named for a beach on Nantucket. In fact, all the sandwiches and salads are named for Nantucket beaches, so on a blustery winter day, you can close your eyes and pretend you're soaking up rays on Smith Point in August as you munch your lunch. (The chips sold here are, of course, Cape Cod brand.) An ever-changing soup selection is featured as well. Carry-out is the way to go at Jetties, tho there are a couple picnic tables in front of the shop for nice afternoons. The Smith Point, by the way, is roast beef, havarti, red onion, tomatoes, and horseradish sour cream on pumpernickel (for $7.95), and coworkers of mine love it. They also like to indulge in the Thanksgiving-themed Nobadeer ($8.95), carved turkey and stuffing with cranberry sauce and mayonnaise on sourdough; and the Surfside ($8.65) with carved turkey, havarti, bacon, avocado spread, and whole grain mustard, also on sourdough. Jetties makes a *great* sandwich. The prices, however, just seem a bit steep for what you get. Especially when the lowly veg and tuna sandwiches cost the same as the ones with carvery meat...but I'll pay the extra few dollars for fresh, whole ingredients over eating at a chain sub shop any day. read more

I really love Jetties because the quality and freshness of the sandwiches are unbeat around here. Their entire sandwich menu is worth trying, but for my first experience, I opted for the Surfside and the Smith Point. The Surfside is a roasted turkey, bacon, avocado, havarti cheese, and whole grain mustard on sourdough. Delicious and light, but the star of the show was the Smith Point, which is their roast beef sandwich with thinly sliced red onion, tomato, and horseradish sour cream on pumpernickel. I usually try to sub bread offerings at sandwich shops, but Jetties gets it right and everything makes sense. Everything is made quickly - the whole order took only 5 minutes. There are many Jetties locations, but this one has outdoor benches for al fresco dining in fabulous weather. It was very appropriate this past weekend when we had a taste of Spring (only to be attacked by snow later this week, boo!). Jetties offers salads, soups (Maryland crab soup, New England clam chowder, and chili), and sides. I will definitely be back to try those. If you love sandwiches as much as I do, you must go here! read more

Whenever I eat the Nobadeer I feel like it deserves a cheer. By that I mean a stadium of excited people all chanting the word Nobadeer for a good while. I never would have thought a Thanksgiving feast shoved between sourdough bread could taste that good, but it does. Fresh bread, just carved turkey, cranberry sauce, mayo, and warm stuffing - all the components balance each other out for sandwich perfection. I have enjoyed every other sandwich I have had here, but I keep returning for the Nobadeer. The sandwiches are huge, so even though it sounds pricey to pay $9 for a sandwich, you can certainly split it with someone else. I tend to save it for later because it is just to difficult to share. read more

Jetties might make the best multigrain in town, but the customers are pure whitebread. As you might expect from a sandwich place devoted to the topography of Nantucket, you'll queue up in a chorus line of sockless boat shoes, sensible khakis, and sportsmanly banter. Only here could my name, shouted out when my order was ready, sound almost ethnic. (It's "Anna.") Yet if Lisa Birnbach and my dog-eared 1980 Official Preppy Handbook are correct, the authentic WASPiness stops here. That's because - in violation of every prep principle of cookery, from bland roasts and Bloodies to Mummy's quiet sobbing over a neglected stove - the food here is amazing. I've got two words for you: The Pocono. Holy toasted goat cheese. Think thinly-sliced portabella and caramelized butternut squash served hot with herbed chevre on the freshest, crackliest multigrain imaginable. Jetties is Matt's and my post-church stop pretty much every week, which is fitting, because that sandwich makes me want to praise Jeebus that I have taste buds. I love the efficient ordering system, too: you write down your order with the pens and paper they've provided, then hand it to them at the counter. Expect to pay a corking $10-15 for a sandwich and soda - more if you want some sides or a scoop of Gifford's ice cream. (Yes, they make sundaes too.) I find the baguettes rather tough and bland, and the Pocono's veggie rival - the Sconset - nothing special. Also, just for the record, the mural on the wall drives me insane: why is that sailboat barreling full-speed into a pile of rocks? Who threw the ball the dog is catching? Why is the lifeguard's chair facing sideways? Why?? But of course, that's not what really matters here. And logical artwork is dreadfully non-U. read more

Jetties is one of those places that I always drove by and though "hm, that looks cute, I should go sometime" but never actually made the effort. After reading all of the great yelp reviews, I decided it was finally time to check it out. When you walk in they have the menu written out typical deli-style on a chalkboard. They offer 10-15 different sandwich options and around the same number for salads. I noticed that they didn't post the sandwich prices, which always bugs me. You fill out your own order form where you can also make a custom sandwich and all of the options looked good. I settled on an Italian-esque sub ( I don't remember the name) and handed my slip to the man at the cash register. This is where things went downhill. The guy didn't say a word to me. He rang me up and motioned toward the price on the cash register and didn't respond when I said thank you. That really just drives me crazy. That's when I remembered this place is run by the Smith Point folk, and it all became clear. Ugh. I was also not pleased with the price-- $7.50 for just a sandwich-- no chips or drink! As I walked out of the store, sandwich in hand, I was prepared to write a 2 or 3 star review. Bad customer service goes a long way in my book. So why did I bump it up to four stars? Well, I tasted the sandwich. Good lord it was good. read more

So, I was in the shop at 6:45 pm on Thurs evening. I mention this only so the owner / management may know the two employees that were working at the time. I walked in from the pouring rain ready to order a sandwich. The two employees previously mentioned we're both sitting in the front of the shop eating. I stood at the counter for 6 -8 minutes expecting that perhaps someone would come from the back to take my order. After allowing what seemed like a fair amount of time to pass, I raised my voice slightly and said "excuse me"... nothing. Two minutes later the female of the two employees apparently thought I had suffered in silence long enough and deserved her attention. During my wait I must have locked eyes with the two employees a number of times and this was apparently taboo, for she went to the customer standing to my right who had only just walked in and asked him if she could help??? WOW!!! Though I was mildly shocked by the bravado, I was pleased that the other client deferred to me. The employee then smugly took my order and made the sandwich. Unfortunately I will never know if their food is any good....I tossed the sandwich when I arrived home out of a nagging concern at what she may have done to it. BTW, whoever cashed me out (he seemed as though he might have been the manager) was pleasant and efficient. read more

Delicious. That is the word that describes the Surfside sandwich. Fresh cut turkey, tons of bacon, fresh baked bread and avocado spread? Thank you sir, can I have another? Just like surfside, this place delivers quality ingredients and a quality sandwich. The sandwich came out quick, very reasonably priced consider the level of care, ingredients and size of the sandwich. I need to try this critically acclaimed Thanksgiving sandwich, maybe next time. In the meantime, I expect to go back and sit outside on their benches as the weather gets even nicer. read more

I once saw one of the owners of Jetties at Quizno's and I said to him, literally, "What the hell are you doing eating here?!" He laughed and said that he loved their toasted sandwiches, to which I replied, "but dude, you own the best sandwich shop in DC!" and he laughed again and said, "thanks, but then why are YOU here?" A smart fella he is! Jetties is just that: the best sandwich joint in DC. For $10 you'll get a big fat sandwich stuffed with nothing but the freshest, most choice ingredients (i discovered grain mustard here and have been hooked on it ever since), a bag of Cape Cod Chips and a beverage - not bad! Sure you can get a subway sub for $6, but if sandwiches were cars, the Jetties Sandwich would be the Mercedes of sandwich, and the Subway Sub would be a Geo Metro (remember those stupid little cars?) With it's basic, light Nantucket-beach inspired decor, and tons of picnic tables out front, Jetties is the quintessential place to go on a nice spring, summer, or fall day to enjoy a sandwich that really makes you say "wow!" They have tons of fixins, and cards that allow you to "build your own" sandwich or modify their own creations with sharpie markers. They aren't particularly friendly, but they are, after all, the owners of Smith Point, and that place is full of the stuffiest young a-holes in DC, so it's more surprising that Jetties is so laid back, rather than the fact that Smith Point is full of punks. But ANYWAYS, moral of the story is: go to jetties, get hooked on jetties, eat jetties for life :) I only wish they'd open a place up that wasn't smack dab in the middle of Foxhall Road....imagine the money you'd make in Dupont fellas!!!!!! read more

I've hit Jettie's a couple of times after visiting my friends at G'town Medical Center. To recover from the panic attack I get from being in a hospital, I gorge on the huge servings of salad or sandwiches here. The choices are pricey for my taste - you'll spend no less than $7 on your meal alone (My bill is usually around $10). But the portions, the quality of the food options and the taste make up for the inflation. Note: you probably want to buy a drink (which will cost you even more) b/c last time I had their free water I was reminded of the smell of my guy friends' bathrooms (i.e. mold - I needed to clarify that). Anywho. While you'll likely be happy with any of your choices, I recommend the salad b/c it's HUGE and they use the perfect amount of dressing. The topping choices include carved turkey - which comes in about 1/2 inch thick slices; blue cheese, cilantro, chick peas, sunflower seeds, cranberries and many other yuppie toppings that suit me perfectly. It's no wonder - Jettie's origins are in one of my old haunts - Nantucket! What first caught my eye was the cute little german gingerbread house that this sandwich shop is in. Also the wooden picnic tables outside. The interior wasn't as quaint as I had imagined it would be based on the exterior. The tables inside are painted and have writings and carvings and stickiness all over them. And the servers are just cold. Displeased with the level of comfort indoors, I escaped to the outside to enjoy the gingerbread house view, but I can't get the ugly neighboring "Fancy Nail" establishment out of my view. So instead I watch people in their cars waiting at the lights on Foxhall Rd. And that's sufficient. read more

I think Jettie's might be the best sandwich shop in DC. I don't say this lightly. I've been to most of the heavy hitters in the city- Wagshalls, A. Litteri, The Italian Store- and I still think Jettie's is better. I usually get one of two sandwiches here. The Nobadeer is a thanksgiving sandwich with sliced turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce. It's tasty, filling and never ceases to amaze me. My other go-to is the steak a jus. It's a perfect combination of tender steak, melty cheese and toasted french bread. There are a few tables inside but it's more fun to go when the weather is nice and sit at the round outdoor tables. read more

The location of this shop is great. If you are traveling along Foxhall Rd, in this residential community, Jetties may be your only nearby option for lunch. I've tried it twice, and both times been very disappointed. The meats were dry and the breads tasted flat, which is a big deal when you consider how expensive the place is. You will quickly go north of $10 when you get a sandwich and drink. And if you want something like soup or a shake too you'll find your quick bite at a neighborhood sandwich shop getting close to $20 a head. Crazy. I drive, bike, or walk by this place very regularly. I doubt I'll stop in again anytime soon. read more

Sad sad sad. My cousin whom I was visiting raved about this place so I was excited to give it a try. I tried the smith point sammie and Maryland crab soup. Both tasted awful. I ate enough of it because I was hungry and I paid about 15 bucks for it all. Also the server was unpleasant as well, he was not busy yet still managed to be off putting. Side note, this place only takes credit cards. It was funny because it was one of the few times I had exact change in cash and he just stared at me saying nothing before I realized there was a small sign saying no cash. Hahaha! Awful all around. I love my sammies and I say go elsewhere if you want a good and cheaper Sammie. read more
