Jimmy John’s

Standard Jimmy John’s. I stopped in for lunch because there was a parking spot right out right. I work at Longworth Hall and even though this location is only less than a mile at the banks, they do not deliver to Longworth. With all the businesses there, it really seems like a missed opportunity for a LOT of business. I probably won’t frequent this location because I don’t want to have to pay to park in the garage if there isn’t anything on the street.
BUT, great lettuce wraps if you are watching your carbs or have a gluten allergy. Saving grace.

I love Jimmy John’s. I’m really not a big sandwich person. There are only two places I get sandwiches at out of all the sandwich places that exist now, one being Penn Station for hot sandwiches and the other being Jimmy Johns for cold sandwiches.
I love everything I’ve ever gotten at Jimmy John’s. Any of the sandwiches, any of the chips or cookies. All amazing. I love their bread, it’s always fresh and soft and compliments everything that goes on your sandwich. I’m a creature of habit and so is my boyfriend and we both usually get the same thing lately when we get Jimmy Johns. I get a Club LuLu, add cheese, go E-​Z on the lettuce and have it cut and half. With Original Jimmy Chips. My boyfriend always gets an Italian Night Club because he is a cliché Italian. haha.
I love this specific location because it’s in Downtown, so it’s close to me. It’s always really clean. The people who work here are always really cool and polite. True to Jimmy John’s style, it’s always fast. This is a great place for a light lunch or dinner, or even picking some sandwiches up to take into a reds game.
The only negative to this Jimmy Johns is the parking situation. If you’re going during lunch time during the week day, you’re probably not going to find a parking spot on the street that Jimmy John’s is on. There is parking underneath the whole area but it’s kind of obnoxious to pay $ 3 for thirty minutes. So either pick your food up, have it delivered or go eat here not at 11, or 12.

I’d only recommend walking into this JJ’s. Delivery is awful. I asked for delivery on a Sunday at 2pm. After 45 mins I called them and they realized they had written the wrong number. Then 1.5 hours after that I called back to cancel. They didn’t call once or offer a free sandwich or had any instance of good customer service aside saying sorry.
Another time my wife had ordered an unwich and it had 2 leafs of lettuce and 2 small pieces of turkey. For $ 6. But at least that order showed up.
I highly recommend another jimmy johns or any of the other much better sandwich places downtown (silverglades, for instance).

Thought we had found our new spot to get food for the Reds game, but man we were wrong. The bread was hard and old, our order was wrong, 2 sandwiches barely had any meat on them and they were freaky slow! This was by far the worst Jimmy John’s experience that we’ve ever had.

Great sub place for someone in a hurry. The food is good but could overall have more option choices.

Their sandwiches are always fresh and delicious! Their service is actually freaky fast (or faster)!!

Awesome sandwiches made super fast. It’s located downtown so the parking sucks from time to time, even though there are meters out front. I always get the #12, can’t go wrong!

I love Jimmy John’s and visited this location for the first time earlier this week. Same quick service was great, but the music was so loud it was hard to hear my order being called. Also, there are only 7 chairs inside (with plenty of seating outside), so if it’s raining there’s a good chance you may need to take your order to go!

I have to confess I am a Jimmy John’s fan as they always have prompt quick service so no matter line or no line you get your food promptly. Glad to have a location downtown but wish it was more central. I will definitely remember to use it if going to a ballgame or visiting the Riverfront parks. If you haven’t been to Jimmy John’s before they have many different sandwich combos (that can be customized) and their sandwiches are hearty!

The beauty of Jimmy Johns is you always know what you’re gonna get. This is the best option for fast, cheap food at the Banks. I think you’re able to take your unopened sandwich into the ballpark too, but don’t quote me on that. I love getting it to go and eating on one of the new big swings facing the river. Friendly, efficient service and clean shop.

Working at GABP there aren’t many quick, cheap, lunch spots close by. Sure there are a lot of great restaurants at The Banks but Jimmy Johns is my go-​to for something that I need I’m a hurry and that I know is going to be good.
The thing about Jimmy John’s is their consistency. The product is always fresh, always quick, and unlike that other sub shop, always jammed full of product. It’s not overflowing one day and then the next day skimping on the meat. That’s what I love about JJ’s. Not to mention they are fairly priced. I get my usual Italian Club (add hot peppers for free) for only $ 5.99 and it fills me up easily. The staff here is always friendly and the restaurant is always clean. There is a small patio area out front with about 4 tables if your feeling cramped.
Jimmy John’s sandwiches are always fresh. You can literally taste the differences. They get overlooked in the Banks scene for lunch options because they aren’t as high profile as other big restaurants (Holy Grail, Lager House, etc.) but one thing is for sure, they deliver a quick tasty lunch like no one else if the area.

Nothing tastes better than a #3, hot peppers covered in jalapeño chips. Mmmmm
Open late on the weekends too.

Finding JJ’s on The Banks is sweet

Why aren’t there any other Jimmy John’s in downtown Cincinnati? I have no idea, but I’m glad this one is walkable from my office.
For an area with so much foot traffic, one would presume the service would be slow. This wasn’t the case. I’d dare say my first order was taken, prepared and finished in under five minutes. I was confused when the server handed me my sandwich. I thought surely this couldn’t be mine!
My go-​to sandwich is the Big John. It was delicious and filling, per usual. The meat was cooked perfectly with just enough pink and flavor that makes me prefer JJ’s over other sub shops.

Jimmy Johns is a another great sandwich shop chain. I believe this Jimmy Johns just moved locations from 4^th St. area to The Banks. I never went to the old location but the new one is awesome. It is built for efficiency and can easily handle lunch or dinner rushes. In fact, there is essentially no indoor seating so plan on taking it to go or eating on the patio if there is room.
In general, Jimmy Johns has aweosome, fresh bread and a variety of toppings. The Beach Club is my favorite which features sprouts and avocado spread. Don’t forget to order hot peppers and get a pickle on the side. Sometimes I’ll take a loaf of bread to go because it is just that good.
