What does everyone think of Jimmy John's food? I hear they put one in close to me and I was planning on checking it out this week. I decided to look at the menu online and it appears kind of limited.

I also finally tried Five Guys Burgers and Fries. I thought it was pretty solid but a little expensive.

Jimmy Johns is alright. I live a few blocks from one. I prefer Subway.

Five Guys is great, but a bit pricey. I never get fries though since I only eat a few and then I'm completely full.

Jimmy Johns is good. I'm not sure why you think the menu is limited, it's just a sub shop so of course the menu is going to be small. Either way, you should check it out. The Vito is my sandwich of choice. With hot peppers.

I'm not a big fan. The only time I get it is when I want delivery. It's just pretty bland to me.

I like Firehouse Subs best.

jj's has the best fast food bread. my favorite is the italian night club with hot peppers. bonus, they don't have a delivery fee and it usually arrives quickly.

How big are their giant sandwiches? The name implies it's too big for one person.

And your name implies you would eat 3. Stick with 1.

Jimmy John's is not very good. I'll stick with Subway over them.

Why do you insist on being a jackass? It gets old.

Jimmy John's is overrated, IMO. Rarely eat there. Big Daddy, the sandwiches aren't big at all.

anyone who thinks Subway is better than JJ's needs to have their head examined. JJ's bread alone is better than anything Subway has on the menu. Plus Subway is gross.

Yeah, I agree. Subway is gross. Jimmy Johns is at least halfway decent.

I'd rather have Penn Station if forced to have white flour bread.

I'd also enjoy Spots in BG.

Jimmy Johns does have great bread but their subs lack meat and are mainly just veggies and bread. Ill take Firehouse, Johnny B's, Quiznos, Grinders, and Penn Station over JJ

Potbelly is the GOAT sub shop. I've never had Firehouse subs, though.

Had Jimmy John's yesterday for lunch. The roast beef they use is very good and their hot peppers are fantastic. My co-worker said the Tuna wasn't that good though.

Delivery took about 10-15 minutes... very fast.
