    I pray you see this review before you waste your time at this establishment. Staff is HORRENDOUS. They have no regard for your time, no regards to make your visit pleasant and display decent manners.. seriously just zero regard at all. I tried to call ahead and order a party platter because I'm a 40 minute drive away. I was told by the girl on the phone I couldn't do that because I had to order that 24hrs ahead and I asked if I could come in and order.. she told me I could. I said I was just trying to make their life easier by calling ahead and she laughed and told me I still had to come in, most likely thinking I wouldn't come after she had been rude over the phone. Mind you the party platter is SIX sandwiches cut into 3 segments... 24hr notice for SIX sandwiches. Just blows my mind. Fast forward, we get to the establishment, we're not greeted for a few minutes and are the ONLY people in there. I finally place my order with the manger, not saying a thing about my experience on the phone or being unpleasant to the staff in any way. After waiting for a while, because trust me they took their time.. a rude girl with facial piercings and a flannel yelled out our sandwich numbers individually and threw them on the pick up counter.. so aggressively one of them fell on the floor. I went to the front again to ask to speak to a manager. The same girl that threw the sandwiches was standing there typing something on the terminal. After a while she looked up and snarked if she could do something for me. I asked for a manager, finally the manager came over and I'm explaining my experience. The rude girl yelled from the back of the restaurant in a snarky remark she didn't mean to throw the sandwich on the floor. I said something along the lines of.. "Why do you work here if you have zero customer service skills" Anyways.. total waste of my time. Not to mention the only reason we were visiting this place in the first place was to pick up a few sandwiches to bring back to my family after a hard day as we had to put a loved family member into the ground just a few hours previous. Just goes to show that: 1: You never know what someone's going through and if you work a customer service based job it is your responsibility to make that trip pleasant and to accommodate that customer since that's what the basis of your foundation is. 2: A little kindness goes a long way and it doesn't cost you anything at all to give it. 3. If you make a mistake, own it by offering a sincere apology. Again- it costs you nothing. 4. You may not realize it but the majority of businesses are in the people business which means building and maintaining relationships.- sorry Jimmy Johns in Effingham... we are broken up. Please don't waste your time, I wish I hadn't!

    Jimmy John's is a great fresh quick meal option. They have many different sub sandwich choices with fresh deli meats. They also have tuna salad and avocado spread which I love. Their bread is baked fresh and always smells so delicious. If you are looking for fewer carbs, go with the lettuce wrap instead of bread. I'm gluten-free so that was my only option. But it actually was really good. For sides it's mainly potato chips, cookies and pickles. The service was quick and friendly. They did get my to-go order wrong and I had to go back inside. But they apologized, fixed it and offered to let me keep the other sandwich.

    I used the Yelp app as I often do to find a place for lunch while in Effingham. Gopher Grill got…read moregreat reviews so we decided to try it. We decided to split an appetizer and a meal. The appetizer we decided on was German egg rolls. Absolutely delicious! For the meal we decided on the schnitzel sandwich and brussels sprouts. I could have made a meal out of the brussels sprouts which they roast in blood orange vinaigrette. For those who are interested there are several virtual sports simulators there. The service was good as well. Can't wait to go back!

    We had family visiting and decided to reserve a spot at one of the simulator bays on a Sunday at…read more11. For a party of 9, our waitress kept up with everything nicely. We ordered a variety of apps and drinks. The appetizers were all ok. We tried the mild wings and the loaded fries. My husband liked the wings and the fries were decent, but there could have been more fries for the amount of toppings on them. My biggest complaint.... The place is very dirty. The wall next to our simulator bay had food splattered on it. There was a chicken wing bone among other crumbs and food under our table when we got there and the place had just opened. The couch at our bay was dated and crumbling, making it feel even more dirty. The bathroom was also disgusting. Toilets looked like they hadn't been cleaned in weeks, and again, the place had just opened for the day. Honestly I would have maybe ordered an entree and had more to eat but I had to keep ordering vodka tonics to make myself forget how unsanitary the place felt.

    I stopped at this location on 5/19/2025 at 9:10pm - this is 50 minutes before closing time…read more I was greeted (if you can call it that) by a hurried, pre-occupied gentleman that seemed to annoyed that I dare stop to eat at this time of the night. The food area was totally in disarray. There was food all over the counters, in between the food bins, and dried something on the inside of the glass. The selection of food was disappointing: I ordered the 3 crispy tacos - I could have 2 crispy and one soft shell. They ran out of crispy shells. ?? Of the four meat choices I could only have chicken (that's all that was left). ?? Even worse, the chicken was cold and chewy. Of the variety of salsa choices I was only allowed the Hot, because all the others were all out.?? I couldn't get any lettuce. ?? Only cheese & sour cream on my tacos.. Or guacamole for an up charge. ?? All the staff looked like they just wanted to get out of there and were just trying to clean up so they could leave. Napkins, plasticware and drink station were mostly empty. Floors were dirty and most of the tables already had chairs on them closed for seating. THIS WAS 50 MINUTES BEFORE CLOSING???!! I doubt I would stop at this location again, especially when there are so many other options in the same area. This location is a poor example for Chipotle!
