Jimmy John's

  I didn't request anything special, but they messed up my sandwich and I have to say - the employees here (minus the cashier guy) are f-ing morons!
  
  There's nothing fast about Jimmy John's, I'm so tired of that "freaky fast" slogan they've got.  Maybe their delivery service can hustle, since anytime I've been in Jimmy John's there's a sandwich maker spending time on catering orders and ignoring people who are present.  When it came down to actual patrons physically present, there weren't many, and no one was waiting before me.  Whatever system they follow that makes things a priority blows.
  
  So I stood there, and I watched Seniorita Sandwichmaker with her greasy hair make at least 4 sandwiches before she looked up and said, "what are you waiting for?"  I told her, "beach club," and she got on it - almost right away.
  
  Then she passed the sandwich to another employee who just kept yelling, "NUMBER 12? NUMBER 12?! DID YOU HAVE A NUMBER 12?"  Well, shit lady, I didn't memorize the number to my sandwich and I can't see the menu, so I GUESS I did.
  
  I got back to work, and my sandwich was heaping with lettuce.  And no bean sprouts.  It sucks that you can't see behind their counter while they make your sandwich.  Since I wasn't at the restaurant, a missing ingredient or wrong order really, really, makes me mad.  Especially since they heaped on 3x as much lettuce instead.  
  
  The bread, and sandwich, isn't anything special, and I much prefer Jersey Mike's, Potbelly's, or even the redheaded step-child of sandwiches, Subway.

  The food and place is always clean.  Good choice for a quick bite to eat for lunch.  The employees are friendly and they get you your sandwich fast.

  Fast service, clean location and fresh food. It's everything you love about Jimmy John's.
  
  I don't use this location for delivery. But it's a nice spot to eat lunch or an early dinner after shopping at the mall (just a few miles up the road). It's nice, quiet and not jammed with people. Plus the staff is extremely friendly. That's always a plus in my book.

  Ok, ok, I know.  4 stars at a sandwich place?  Well, I'm not comparing it to Morton's here, just to the other sub places (Subway, Potbelly, etc.)
  
  I have worked near this Jimmy John's for approximately two years now, and have eaten there far more times than I can recall offhand (I admit it, I'm a sandwich junkie).  I've also checked out Jimmy John's in Madison and Kansas City, and have found all of them to be of a similar quality level.
  
  I happen to love the French bread here, though it can be hit-and-miss.  When it's straight out of the oven, it's some of the best I've ever had - soft, warm, and quite tasty.  Now, if you need a bunch of junk dumped on top of your bread to enjoy it (see Subway), you may not like it.  It's bread; plain and simple.
  
  Though I've never had any qualms about any of the meats, I'm partial to the ham (smoked ham, that is...and quite tasty).  I've always found the meats and vegetables to be fresh and appetizing - and I'm a stickler for fresh veggies.
  
  I used to be a big fan of Subway (and in their defense, you get more food mass for your money), but after eating at Jimmy John's on a regular basis, I find it hard to go back - even for a somewhat better deal.  Even the condiments at Jimmy John's are of higher quality, with Hellmann's mayo and Grey Poupon.
  
  Overall, this is the best chain sandwich shop that I've found...and I've looked.

  I like Jimmy John's too!  I usually get the Bootlegger Club, if you haven't had it before, you should try it.  As far as subs go, if I feel like I should be on a diet, I go to Subways, if I want something tasty, I come here.  I too like the bread.  Service is quick, what I would expect for a sandwich shop during lunch.  Overall, it's good.

  I like Jimmy John's. I always get the #9 with hot peppers and always have a consistently good experience.  I like the french bread over the wheat for this sandwich. Of the chain's (Subway, etc) It is my favorite. For a sub place I don't think it is the best and four stars may be high but it is better than average and there is no 3.5 star rating... <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fjimmyjohns.com%2F&s=044ad18af8375654b22476dcd1948dcc7e7e6271746b0e21839fca0328889d30" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://jimmyjohns.com/</a>
