There is not a better sub shop in Chicago- Jimmy Johns & Potbelly pale by comparison. They've been around a long time, before I moved to Chicago in 1980.
There are 3 locations still around I think - Rogers Park, Lakeview on Ashland and Winnetka.
Best meats, bread and the captains secret sauce make these subs my favorite. Also, the soups are fantastic. Always busy but worth the short wait in line.
Nemo's has some of the best sandwiches that you will find in Chicago. Â I am biased since I have been coming here since birth, but their creations are amazing. Â The bread is always perfect and they truly do it right. Â My only gripe is that many times they fail to acknowledge their customers waiting in line. Â I know they are busy, but it would be nice for them to make more of an effort to greet and provide a higher level of customer service. Â With that said they have had the same staff for ages and they know how to make a great sub and soup.
