Jersey Mike’s Subs

Better than a Subway. Not as good as a DiBella’s. On par but slightly beating a Jimmy John’s. Just not a lot of customizing options. You’re offered LTO + some pickles or peppers as your «veggie» toppings. Sauces include mayo, oil and vinegar. Pretty plain Jane but decently good. The meat is generous and the roll (options are white or wheat) was fresh enough. They have fun marketing themed around the Jersey shore which I enjoyed being a former Philadelphian.

Jersey Mike’s is a sub shop, with a twist: they slice all the meat and cheese to order. The subs are excellent, and they offer both hot and cold options.
The staff is uniformly friendly and welcoming. And the owners? They are the best ever. They sponsor local activities and rec sports, and are truly excellent community partners. Thanks, Jersey Mike’s Clintonville!

I am a huge fan and I am here almost every Monday. Monday, of course, is double point day which means I get that free sub even quicker. Seriously though, the prices are great the subs are very big and very fresh. They cut the meat right in front of you and assemble it your way. The bacon is crispy and deliciousand the staff is always friendly. I like both the roast beef and ham clubs, as well as the Italian sub, and the chipotle cheesesteak is killer. Jersey Mike’s is by far my most sub shop in Columbus. diBellas is also very good, but jersey mikes never lets me down!

Prices here are outrageous somehow. I wish I would have gotten a receipt because I am still baffled how two «regular» subs cost me $ 15. One reason is because they ask for a tip on the credit card reader. Why would I tip them, they didn’t deliver my sandwich to my house, or bring it to me at the table. Very shady.

I work near this location. I enjoy eating on the patio out front. The owner and staff are always friendly and prompt, The cost is very competitive and I always feel, I get better quality and larger sub than at other competitors.

My go-​to place for a consistently awesome sub experience. The toppings and bread are fresh which is a huge reason these subs are so good and refreshing. Mike’s way is a must… maybe even add mustard and pickles! Don’t forget to collect your rewards points.

We were going on a picnic and wanted some delicious sandwiches. Having recently had Jersey Mike’s for the first time at a catered work event and LOVING it, I suggested we go here.
The catered food was AMAZING. The sandwiches, fruit, pasta salad, and cookies were all absolutely delicious.
When we came back for just sandwiches, I wasn’t as impressed. I got the club sub and, don’t get me wrong, it was good. But it wasn’t the AMAZING sandwich I remembered from the catered meal a couple of weeks before, and definitely not stand out from other sandwich chains. I almost got the turkey wrap, and I think next time I’ll opt for that instead.
I wasn’t a huge fan this second time, but I will definitely be back to give it another shot.

Better bread, meats and cheeses than subway. Not many topping options. Friendly staff.

What can you say about a chain sub shop. Perhaps compare this location to other? I like how this shop has a prep area you can see. Some you can’t see what they’re doing, not that I think something shifty is going on. I have left other locations not having the special toppings I asked for but here you can see them adding everything. Friendly and professional staff but not a lot of seating.
You’ll find Jeni’s Ice Cream next door and a Northstar Café on the opposite end of the small strip they all share. With that, they also all share a small parking lot out back. With it being Clintonville in general, parking can get tight, especially since everyone loves the above mentioned. Many days I’ll grab a sub, then ice cream then some bakery items at Northstar (which I foresee happening very soon.)
For the cheesesteak snobs give the Jersey Mike’s Famous Philly a try. Better yet, try the chicken instead of steak. Great with hot sauce.

I happen to work very close to Jersey Mike’s and as such, this sandwich shop is a very frequent lunch destination. It’s easier on the wallet than the nearby Northstar, and I can always get in and out under five minutes. Jersey Mike’s may not have as extensive of a menu as Subway, but unlike that chain, the few things they do they do quite well. While once a ravenous eater of their Italian sub, I have since migrated to The Veggie in an effort to reduce my meat intake. I happen to like their provolone, so the little extra cheese doesn’t bother me, and a mini is usually filling. As an added courtesy, they will offer to clean the meat and cheese cutter for vegetarians.
The staff at this location is always friendly and helpful, and I seldom leave without putting something in the tip jar!

Ive been here a few times now. I find this place kind of amazing really. Im from central Jersey and this place started in Point Pleasant… my beach. I was amazed when I found that out… to have a piece of home here in Ohio is awesome!
We’ve gotten the tuna, chipolte cheesesteak, chicken parm, grilled rueben, & the buffalo chicken wrap. The wrap was good, probably the favorite. Hubby didnt like their rueben but I didnt have a chance to taste it so it couldnt have been bad (he wont eat something he doesnt like). The chicken parm (me and my mother had this) was ok. a bit dry and not enough cheese. The cheesesteak he… the local born philly boy, didnt like one bit. He said it just wanst a cheesesteak. Really, any steak with anything other then steak & cheese, and at times grilled onions, isnt a cheesesteak. People here we’ve notice go off of Charlies… which is a crime to eat in Philly… menu, which loads theirs with lettice, tomato, green peppers, onions, and mushrooms with mayo. Thats a steak sandwhich not a philly steak! This place is the same thing. So yes, it was good, but NOT a philly in any sense of the word. Try serving it in Philly and you’ll get it thrown back in your face with hot sauce to burn your eyes out. On a side note. the philly boys lvoed to teast me about how my area was nuts?! SO yeah. Matthew B they are nuts about their steaks but thats because thats what their city is known for and no one gets it right. I’d be pissed to if I was from Philly. I think it was good too… but I guess I cant judge, just like no one knows real NY pizza then me. SO the philly boy disaproves of your cheese steak, but Im not surprised. THeyre crazy folks anyway.
Jersey Mikes is a true Jersey gem, a hoagie place that needs to be shared. They make sandwiches I grew up with and love. Even if they dont know how to make a philly steak… oh well. I still love them! I still might prefer Firehouse… MIGHT! Its a toss up right now.

Today I switched off and instead of getting my usual (the original italian), I ordered a big Kahuna cheese steak with the chipotle cheese sauce on it. Man was it good! It came with onions, peppers, mushrooms, and jalapenos and extra cheese. That was a great sandwich!

I love going to Jersey Mike’s and ordering the No. 12 sandwich. There’s no No. 12 on the menu, but they always know exactly what I’m talking about. Apparently Jersey Mike’s employees are required to memorize all former menu items as well as the current ones. It’s almost like a hidden menu.
Every time I hear someone say they’re headed to Subway, I tell them to come here instead. They rarely do, I assume because Subway is cheaper, but guess what? You get what you pay for. When I order the No. 12, they actually take the giant slab of roast beef out of the deli case and slice it fresh right onto the bun. Then they do the same with the pepperoni. Then they do the same with the provolone. But the best thing about a Jersey Mike’s sub is the pickles. I don’t know if they’re homemade or what, but they taste great. I usually ask for double and sometimes triple pickles, and it’s still not enough. (Sadly, some Jersey Mike’s stores use generic Burger King-​esque canned pickles; if that were the case for this location, I would dock a star. Maybe two. Yes, they’re that good.)
One complaint I do have is the number of toppings are somewhat limited. I could definitely go for some green peppers, olives, maybe cucumber, alfalfa sprouts, etc. But your choices are limited to tomato, lettuce, pickles, onions, jalapenos and banana peppers.
That said, you will never see me at Subway if Jersey Mike’s is nearby. The quality of the food more than makes up for the increase in price.

Oh man, this place is so yummy. The owners are super, super friendly. They only have one thing I can order and that’s a veggie. It comes with so much cheese it’s almost unpleasant. I’m trying to reduce my dairy intake because I’m actually allergic so I haven’t eaten here in forever.
Get your subs Mike’s Way, they are really good! It isn’t usually too crowded and it’s much better than similar places like Jimmy John’s. True deli style. The meats are sliced right in front of you. I worked up this way for a while and was on a near first name basis with the owners. They came into my work and I came into theirs, etc. Such great guys, I wish them continued success.

Once you’ve had a Jersey Mike’s Sub, all other subs will pale in comparison.
These subs are perfect for those lazy sundays of football watching. Get a regular if you can handle a Subway footlong. Get a giant if you plan on watching football all day from the 1 o’clock game to the late night NBC game. The subs are stacked with meat and veggies and it will likely last you all day. I went the other night and had the regular Italian. I ate half and was completely stuffed. The best part is they are just as good the next day.

This is the only sandwich shop in Ohio that I have ever seen slicing the meat AFTER you order the sandwich. It makes a difference, too. These things just taste fresh and better. Almost as if they must have better, fresher ingredients if they go to that amount to trouble to keep the meat that fresh.
With so many fresh meats and readily suggested sub combo’s plastered all over in J.M.‘s I never can get an order together in a reasonable amount of time. I like too many of the meats. I can’t narrow it down quick enough and then I feel rushed, which can sometimes lead to a rushed-​flustered order. And the in-​between sizes always makes me wish I ordered another size, regardless of what size I ordered. These are such silly frivolous things to whine about. My only real gripe is that there isn’t a Jersey Mikes closer to my house.

Yeah, so, some people get really intense about cheese steaks, philly cheese steaks, beefsteaks– whatever they are. Like, so-​and-​so is not such-​and-​such blah blah. Get over yourselves! Because Jersey Mike’s makes a steak and cheese sub that I go back for– often on a weekly basis for stretches of time.
What is it I love so much about this tiny chain? The chipotle cheese steak. It’s like a regular cheese steak with, yeah, you guessed it, chipotle mayo. Why is this so good? I have no idea. It’s decent meat on good break with okay cheese– and some lettuce and a tomato on top if you so wish, which I do, thank you very much.
I’m also a big fan of Miss Vickie’s chips, especially the salt and vinegar variety, but it’s rare that many places have them to offer with a meal. Jersey Mike’s sure does, though, and I can’t get enough.
Dig out your old BuckID– there’s a $ 6 sub, drink, and chips student discount that is a phenomenal value

Jersey Mike’s is fast becoming a Sunday afternoon tradition after waking up late from a Saturday night of mind altering activity. Around 2:00pm we all pile into my car, make the drive from campus through the gray and decaying storefronts of Clintonville that seem even sadder during the winter months, and park our seats inside Jersey Mike’s.
To be honest, I’ve never had anything other than their Philly Cheesesteak Sub. And neither has anyone else that I travel with. It’s not that this is the best Cheesesteak I’ve ever had, in fact it is far from perfect. But the warm and gooey provolone cheese mixed in with the onions and peppers on a warm wheat bun brings a little delight into my otherwise dull Sundays. The student discount doesn’t hurt either. Only $ 6 for a sub, chips, and a drink.
We grab our own copies of Alive! and The Other Paper and eat in silence with the occasional quip about something interesting that we are reading. We always leave full and a little more prepared to finish whatever homework we neglected over the weekend.
