I recently retired and stumbled across Mister Ricks while I was in Jenkintown. I decided to try it; some may say there are hoagie places all over Philadelphia and the suburbs. However, there was something a little different about this mom & pop shop. The turkey hoagie with cooper sharp, the freshness of the onion, lettuce and tomatoes. The olive oil is amazing. Each sandwich is made with details and preciseness. Now, I'm a regular but they open at 11 and close at 3 pm daily so your window is short but worth it. read more

Many locals might know that Mister Ricks makes hoagies like a boss. The hoagies are BIG with fresh ingredients and pack a punch! However, many of you might not know that Mister Ricks also makes great cheesesteaks. They have one of the best cheesesteaks I've eaten in Philly. The sliced ribeye is tender, juicy, and flavorful and stuffed into a giant seeded roll. A bargain for $14.99. Get it with fried onions and your choice of American, Provolone, or Cooper Sharp Cheese (hint: get Cooper Sharp!). It was so good I didn't even need to add any flavorings like ketchup or mayo to it (some cheesesteaks in South Philly are so dry they need ketchup and mayo to make them palatable). Mister Ricks cheesesteak is also physically larger than a lot of cheesesteaks I've eaten, so not only do you get a great cheesesteak, but it's also a great BIG cheesesteak that can be shared, especially if you get a couple of bags of chips. Oh, yes, they also have a vast array of chips and Coca Cola soda products to choose from. My son pointed out that this cheesesteak rivals and even beats any of the fancy, famous cheesesteak shops I've taken him to all around Philly. Totally true. I can name some of them, but then those shops might not like me anymore! Service is always quick and efficient. They serve a lot of folks on days with sporting events so if you're in a hurry, call ahead to place your order. There's no dining tables inside, but there's plenty of seats at the park right across the street. read more

Came here today and ordered a stacked Italian, and wow--I was not disappointed. The balance of meat, cheese, and toppings was spot on. The onions were sliced perfectly thin, the lettuce was shredded just right and spread evenly across the roll. Speaking of the roll--let's talk about it. The sesame seed roll had great texture and flavor, easily a standout on its own. Sure, their hours are a little unusual, but I get it--they probably don't need to stay open all day because the local crowd keeps them busy, and honestly, the hoagies are just that damn good. I'd happily come back for another one anytime. read more

Just great hoagies all around by far the best in the town. Cajun turkey best hoagie I have ever had.

Mister Rick's has THE BEST hoagies in the area. They fresh cut the meats right there behind the counter, thin sliced with all topping also chopped nice and small/thin. Staff is always friendly and orders are made quickly. read more

I was intrigued by the reviews so I decided on a cheesesteak. Everything was good except the meat. It's that type of meat where it has a distinct smell that screams low quality. It permeates through the wrapping. Thankfully they season the crap out of it. read more

Best Hoagies in the area. Sesame seeds on the rolls. the people are friendly! Theres 15 min free parking out front foe pick up.

Delicious and well made hoagies in the area! My personal favorites are the sharp Italian hot and plain Italian. The seeded roll adds a nice texture and flavor to the sandwiches. They offer free delivery on door dash. Overall a reliable lunch takeout spot with speedy service!! read more

Wow I found my new hoagie shop! Just start, my husband picked up our order so I can only speak for the Customer Service second hand, but he said the cashier was absolutely lovely and super nice. As a vegetarian, there's always two hoagies I can get, cheese, hoagie, and a veggie OK. I wasn't in the mood for anything hot so I got the cheese hoagie and my goodness was this great. The cheese and veggies for sliced thin, which made eating the hoagie really easy. Absolutely delicious. My husband also thoroughly enjoyed his meal from the very first bite. We will definitely be back. read more

I ordered off GrubHub and there were no options for adding any type of oil/vinegar/mayo, so I assumed it all just came on the side but instead I got a dry af italian hoagie /: My sandwich didn't look like other pics from other reviewers, so I might have to go into the shop to see if there are any redeemable qualities. Definitely would say there are other places in the area worth going to before this place though. read more

Always a tasty, filling sandwich. Great food and service. Keep up the good work! I highly recommend the Hot Sharp Italian hoagie.

They've built their menu out more and the ingredients are fresh and high quality. I love all the options for the hoagies. Veggies and meat still seem a little on the thin side, but this Is a great addition to jenkintown. read more

The sandwich was fresh and flavorful. I really wanted a hoagie and couldn't decide on where to go. Hoagies can be hit or miss if the roll isn't soft, too much or not enough condiments, or the deli meat isn't that good. My go to place closed sadly. However, Mister Ricks hoagie had the right balance and flavor. The soft, seeded roll was the best and held all the hoagie ingredients well! I really enjoyed the hoagie and will return. Hoagies are large and cost total of $9. Customer service was excellent. read more

Mister Ricks Hoagies - a sandwich with lettuce - Sandwiches Near Me - Jenkintown, Pennsylvania

Mr. Ricks - Jtown - old Italian hot w/ heavy mayo First sensory contact, car smell: heavy onion smell, but different. Turns out, red onion. I like the change. Opened it to find a seeded Liscios roll. Meat quantity not short, not heavy. I like heavy, but definitely would suffice the avg belly. Shredded lettuce, I like cuz it's easy to scoop off. Meat was very good. Fresh "old Italian meats" Long hot was HOT The roll was perfect. Firm, gave a lil fight, but not hard at all. The sharp prov was nice. All the flavors played well together with my palet totally thrown by the red onion, but def liked it. May declare it the best hoagie under a 10 min drive from Glenside. read more

Quality over quantity. It doesn't have the most meat or cheese you're ever experienced but the flavor was still great. The roll itself was amazing. The hot pepper option is so good. I would go back for sure. Well worth a visit. read more

Mister Ricks Hoagies - Hot Italian with sweet peppers added - Sandwiches Near Me - Jenkintown, Pennsylvania

Everything I tried has been great. Some standout more than others. Cajun Chopped Chicken is my favorite so far.

This place is pretty good. We have had nice hoagies and sides perhaps half a dozen times from Mr. Ricks. They do a good Turkey hoagie. We have enjoyed them. Haven't had the ham or various beef hoagies. Sadly while generous to the extreme the Italian hoagie just was lacking ... something. Metagones, goyishe... the words are different, the meaning is the same. Play to their strengths and the lovely ladies at Mr. Ricks will get ya a great hoagie. read more

Real deal Philly hoagies here. Bread is outstanding! Meats freshly sliced. All comes together... delicious!!

So wanted to give this hoagie place a try and it's not the best place and I wouldn't recommend it wasn't impressed at all 1. Thing is there was barely any meat on the hoagies I tasted just bread that's all 2 . Thing was I ordered a tuna hoagie it had no taste it taste like they didn't put any season in it and it was gross but I was hungry so I just ate it 3 . My husband ordered an Italian hoagie he said no flavor at all barely any meat And he ate only hafe of the hoagie then threw it away because it didn't taste fresh at all 4 I asked for Doritos chips of course no chips really what hoagie place doesn't have Doritos smh so had to go somewhere else to get chips wasn't happy at all and would probably never return read more

Great hoagies! I have tried their tuna and turkey. The tuna is fresh not too much mayo, the lunch meat is good quality. Both are prepared on a good roll! read more

I LOVE MISTER RICKS HOAGIES! CAJUN TUNA IS THE BEST TUNA HOAGIE EVER!! THE SERVICE IS EXCEPTIONAL! I appreciate the accommodations yesterday As a new mom I don't always get to eat when I get my food, so ordering my hoagie on the side was perfect! No mushy rolls, fresh ingredients, and I got to eat in peace. Thanks MR! #mouthwatering read more

You get what you pay for. Great quality and large quantity. I ordered the Italian hoagie, Mac daddy salad and small chips (which is a medium sized bag). The hoagies are a foot long. The seeded roll is a great addition and the meats are delicious. Definitely coming back here anytime I am craving a well put together quality hoagie. read more

How exciting to find a real Hoagie spot that focuses on quality and love. The Italian spicy hoagie was as close to perfection as I've had while eating in a car. If you choose this adventure get extra napkins. This sandwich is meant to be eaten on a table hunched over so the oil and vinegar can drop properly on the potato chips below. Maybe I'd get extra long hots on my sandwich next time. Can't wait to find an excuse to get back to this hoagie heaven. read more

I got the tuna fish salad & was pretty good. Nice fresh ingredients made for a pleasant experience. I enjoyed it & the delivery was ok too.

outstanding turkey, roast beef and corn beef specials! love their picklewich and the salads are huge and delicious! I'm warning you though... if you try mister rick's you'll crave it all the time! read more

I ordered the Sharp Italian hot sandwich hoagie it was ok bread was fine . They put very little lettuce it was so fine it could evaporate and they was scared to put onions on it and I had a 1/4 piece of hot peppers. The pictures in the reviews sure doesn't reflect what I received. The tomato's were also sliced so fine and was barely there as you can see. I also had to add mayo to my sandwich. read more

Mister Ricks Hoagies - Sandwiches Near Me - Jenkintown, Pennsylvania

They specialize in hoagies and have several other sandwiches which are quite original and delicious. No grill or fryer (no cheese steaks etc) but they really stick with their thing which is top notch hoagies, quality ingredients being the key. read more

I feel badly for all of the people who tried a hoagie from here and enjoyed it. Life is better out there and so are hoagies from pretty much anywhere else. We were very excited when this shop opened and more so when we finally got hoagies and got home to eat. The hoagies were nearly inedible. To start with, the rolls, despite what others are saying, are nothing special. They might be Amorosos, which are Rolls 101, a sign that someone doesn't know what he's doing. Bland, low-grade, and invisible. No chew, no seeds, no flavor. Not Sarcone's for sure. The veggies such as the lettuce, peppers, onions, and tomatoes were sliced paper-thin, to the point where there was no remaining texture, and were so sparse they looked like accidental leftovers from another hoagie. The cheese was vastly too thin as well and inconsequential as a result. May as well not have been there at all. Maybe it wasn't. So...on to the bad part of this review. We had turkey, Italian, and turkey/roast beef hoagies. The meats, like the veggies, were also cut paper-thin. The result was meat-mush, without texture and wholly disgusting. I finished my turkey hoagie because I was hungry. I did not enjoy it at all. My dining partners were unable to eat much of theirs, they were so grossed out. If you're missing a lot of teeth, these hoagies are for you. I can see that these attributes were decided on intentionally in an effort to make something right. But when all of the decisions are wrong, there's no way the result will be right. I am not happy writing this review. I wanted to have a premium place to get awesome hoagies. Mister Rick's, sadly, is not that place. Wawa hoagies are far better, and that's not saying much. Update: I just saw the photos of hoagies at the top of the page. I wonder where they got those? Ours looked NOTHING REMOTELY like those! read more

Sooooo good. I had searched dlong and hard for a go to hoagie spot and mister Rick's quenched that thirst. I wish this place was there when I lived around the corner. They have great standard hoagies (Italian, turkey, etc) and then some delicious sandwiches they've created. read more

Awesome local place to get a nice full hoagie with great meats, cheese and the seeded roll

Excellent hoagies and Excellent service! These sandwiches are perfection. The bread always sets it over the top for me - so fresh! Highly recommend! read more

Happy to have a yummy hoagie place in the borough! Fun to enjoy in the square on a nice day. Tried a few hoagies the past couple months and all are top-notch. The bread at Mister Ricks really sets is it a part from other hoagie places. It's so good. Recommend adding roasted peppers to your honey roasted turkey with provolone, letter, tomato, extra mayo, oil, salt, pepper and all of the seasoning. read more

I live down the road from here and I had heard good things about this place so I decided to give them a try last saturday. I placed my order and went grocery shopping at the Acme down the road- I ordered 3 hoagies an italian, turkey and tunafish. You must know this place doesnt do hot sandwhiches or any hot fries etc. That being said the cold sandwhiches and hoagies they DO offer are TREMENDOUS! My italian was like a primo hoagie in so many ways but only better! I will be going back here MANY times to come read more

These are good solid hoagies. Fresh, thinly sliced meats and cheeses on quality seeded hoagie rolls. I've ordered from here no less than 10 times and never had a bad meal. I typically do a turkey and cheese and my husband gets a sharp Italian sweet. Online ordering is excellent - they always read the notes and give you what you ask for. read more

I always have the turkey hoagie with cheese. This place makes the best turkey hoagie I have had in the Philadelphia area.

Got the stacked Italian and chipotle chicken hoagies. Fantastic portion size, good quality meats, lovely staff as well! Good for a quick pick up before a pool day! We also got three of the salads: macaroni, Mac Daddy, and the pasta. They were decent, nothing special. Wouldn't go out of my way to get them next time. Overall great experience and even better food!! read more
