Jimmy John’s

*My review is for their catering & delivery services, I have not been inside this location.*
Can’t sing these guys’ praises enough — as a personal customer their delivery service is crazy-​fast and customer service is excellent. As a catering customer, the catering manager is AHmazing! We have a lot of meetings at our office and JJ’s is our go-​to place, they always take care of us and are so pleasant to work with, A+ service!

My husband originally first got me interested in trying sandwiches from Jimmy Johns back around the summer of 2009 when we were living in Orlando, Florida. There was a Jimmy John’s sandwich place that was a couple miles from the University of Central Florida (near an apartment that we lived at that also had other restaurants too such as The Pita Pit, Steak N Shake, Panera Bread etc.). My husband and I ordered combo meals from here, (my husband chose the Big John sandwich meal while I chose the Vito). The Vito tasted superb because the amount of meat and other toppings on the Vito bread was just enough (with the right balance of the Italian vinaigrette that comes with it). I also enjoyed the decent range of drinks that were available for the combo meal (my husband politely served me a drink hybrid of Cherry coke and rootbeer because he knows I like both drinks). Last, but not least both the servers were friendly, gave impeccable customer service, and had our orders ready in a reasonable timeframe.

Pandora kept playing JJ commercials the past few weeks so I decided to give them a try. I ordered delivery ($ 1per sub) since it was raining and I was nearby and my food came in less than 20 mins. Idk if the delivery guy had a voice changer or something but he sounded just like the dude from the commercials. Had the JJ Pepe original sub with all the freebies… o m f-​ing g! It was so good. Maybe Im cissing the experience because I really thought they’d be like a subway or Quiznos but The French bread was tasty and the quality of the ingredients was great. I ate that sub in 10 mins ! lol will definitely be coming to this location more often.

Jimmy Johns is known for its quick delivery. Not at all at the moment. So my coworker and I ordered more than 30 minutes ago and it’s still not here. During lunch they are as quick as 5 – 10 minutes. We got a call from them at least 15 minutes ago letting us know the subs were made and confirming the delivery location which never happens. Is this normal now? If it is I’ll change my rating so let me know.

I had a very frustrating experience of finding this place. There isn’t a whole lot of lunch options in Greenbelt, and I really wanted my usual at JJs, so I drove over to College Park. I Unilocaled the location, of course, and I drove down the street twice looking for the store. It is located on a strip and what I have learned is that they do not have the Jimmy Johns sign outside of the store! It is located between a nail place and a pizza place. There is a very small lot on the side of the strip and you have to put change in, but it’s pretty cheap. I think I put about 35 cents in for 10 minutes.
Other than that Jimmy Johns is pretty consistent with their sandwiches, which is so awesome. I love the chips that they have to offer because they are a little tougher than your average chip. Jimmy Johns is definitely my go to sandwich place and now I know where I can find it, so I think next time will be a little easier.

The savior of my late night study sessions as well as late weekends. Probably order from here every other week and the delivery is always on time within 15 – 20 minutes which is great. Only had one bad experience when it took about 50 minutes to deliver, because they only had one guy working that night, but I’ve had so many good experiences I won’t count this one against them. Sandwiches are alright, but they always hit the spot and the delivery time is what counts when I want it.

Great food !!!, and the price is right I just got the Turkey sub from Jimmy johns and it was good, it’s my first time this is now my new place for lunch healthy and better then any burger.

I love the club tuna with peppers! It’s absolutely delicious. I do feel a tad bit bothered that a bag of chips is $ 1.50, and a medium sized fountain drink is $ 2.50. Delivery takes almost no time. I’m pretty sure the two times I had JJ deliver at my door, they dropped off the order within maybe 15 – 20 minutes? Good food, good customer service — I’m plenty satisfied overall.

I don’t leave that many reviews on Unilocal,but I had the worst JJ experience tonight. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!
I don’t care that it’s raining, I don’t care that «a lot of people have ordered.» I’ve NEVER waited 45 minutes to get a JJ sandwich.
I called at 6:35 pm, and did not receive my order until 7:12 pm. I am a UMD student and have class at 7 pm (that I’ve never been late to…) I called JJ at 7:09 and talked to an extremely rude employee. He had a terrible attitude and just kept saying sorry. I asked if there was a possibility for a credit and he said, «did you expect to be the only customer tonight?» AND he said the delivery guy didn’t leave until 6:54 pm, TWENTY MINUTES after I made my order! TWENTY minutes to make a sandwich? I’m sorry, but that’s bull crap. It would’ve been appreciated that when I called, to have been told about the long wait. What I expect is 20 minutes tops, from order to delivery, like it usually takes.
If I don’t get a credit with this receipt next time I go into this JJ store location, I will NOT be going back and will do my very best to tell people NOT to eat or order from this location…

Fastest delivery ever! I love how they use bikes to cut down on delivery time.
Their sandwiches are great, somehow seeming much fresher than Subway.
My only complaint is that I always wind up over $ 10 by simply adding chips and and a pickle to my order. Beware of those extras! They cost a lot more than they’re worth. $ 1.75 for a pickle that most places would give away for free? Ridiculous. $ 1.50 for a tiny bag of chips? Also ridiculous.
If only they had a meal option they could get 5 stars, but as this is a chain I know it won’t be changing any time soon. :/

Over the past two or three weeks, I’ve ordered Jimmy Johns delivery five times. Although the food has tasted great, they messed up my order four of those five times. These haven’t been minor screw-​ups, like they forgot the lettuce, but totally incorrect orders. Today, the order (my boss’s) was wrong again. I called the location and they asked me to package up the incorrect sandwich and send it back with the driver who would bring the correct one. The second sandwich came. It was wrong as well. I sent it back with the driver (very nice guy) for one more try. He came back to my location a few minutes later and said his manager, Lou, had refused to send another sandwich. We could either keep it or not, our choice. Needless-​to-​say, I was pretty surprised. Rather than calling him and battling it out, I decided to call the corporate office and have them sort it out.
(The second star is just for the very tasty food and the nice delivery drivers.)

Jimmy John’s gets an absurd amount of my money. Their sandwiches are delicious and their delivery and general customer service is top-​notch. I don’t think I’ve ever waited more than 12 minutes for delivery, which is a testament to both the food prep and delivery processes. Many of the deliverers travel by bike, which I think cuts down on time.
I am a creature of habit and generally only get the Vito or Italian Nightclub sandwiches. My only complaint is that you can’t order a combo through delivery; the chips and soda are a la carte. The important thing is that you can still get fountain soda and they just up-​size the cup so it doesn’t spill in transit.
Jimmy John’s prices are extremely reasonable and you get quality food for what you pay. It’s definitely a good value and you should give it a try!

Jimmy John’s is a quick sandwich joint that is predominantly in college towns, but does have restaurants across the country. If you are in a hurry, Jimmy John’s is the place to go as they quickly make the sandwiches in front of you, getting you in and out quicker than a trip to McDonald’s. Even the delivery takes about 10 minutes, while most places take roughly an hour.
The prices for a 9 inch sub are around $ 5, which is pretty reasonable. The subs are your classic lunchmeat sandwiches with Jimmy John’s homemade bread. The bread is soft and light. I got my Turkey Tom without sprouts, tomatoes, and mayo while adding oil and vinegar and onions. The turkey was very light in consistency and almost melted in your mouth. They apply just the right combination of toppings to the turkey. Overall, the sandwich, while simple is extremely good and one of my favorite dishes in College Park. It is pretty light though and I have no trouble polishing off two sandwiches usually.
Bread: 9
Meat: 9
Overall: 9

My tip says it all but here we go again… Super fast service but they don’t cut back on the quality.
They delivered so many time to my office we now use them to cater our meetings.

Jimmy John’s sandwiches are quite good, and pretty simple. My boyfriend will often drag me out during studying for a quick snack break when I’m starving myself. I always get the Turkey Tom because it has no cheese, and it’s basic but good: turkey, alfalfa sprouts, lettuce+tomato, mayo.
Two things about Jimmy John’s employees:
1) They are EXTREMELY fast. They often have my sandwich ready before I have managed to finish fumbling with my wallet. It’s kind of magical to watch them make sandwiches, although if you want to change something, you do feel bad because your sandwich has been done for 5 minutes already.
2) They can get REAL crazy at night. And this can get really annoying, and is why I can’t give them 5 stars. One time, I came into the store in the evening to hear the music BLASTING so loudly that the cashier is having a tough time hearing my order (and in fact, he messed up my order) and the employees just horsing around a LOT. I don’t mind people having fun at work, but they were like, belting out songs and dancing around and I felt super uneasy eating there for much longer.
This was an isolated incident, but I don’t doubt it happens when I’m not there. However, Jimmy John’s is a pretty chill place and you get your sandwiches very quickly.

This is a great example of what Jimmy John’s is about, fast, friendly service.
«Welcome to Jimmy John’s,» when we enter and «Have a great day,» when we leave. Not to mention our subs were ready within 30 seconds of us sitting down. I’m always impressed with how fast Jimmy John’s is. During our time eating here the two bike delivery guys there must have done two or three full round trips. If you can’t walk in, order Jimmy John’s and it’ll be there in a couple minutes anyway.
This Jimmy John’s was pretty clean. The staff went around a couple times while we were there wiping down the tables and picking up trash. It’s nice to see the place kept up well.
The food is similar to every other Jimmy John’s I’ve been to. If you want a crazy sub with every vegetable imaginable and umpteen different sauces, this is not the place for you. Jimmy John’s has a set menu and that allows them to do these few subs really well. Nothing is toasted, but that lets them keep costs down and speed up preparation.
Overall this is a great Jimmy John’s and provides a great place to get a sandwich. Whenever we’re in College Park I love stopping by and grabbing a quick sub.

My housemate says that this is a really good sandwich place– better than Subways, so I decided to give it a go.
I think that we both have very different definitions of what a good sandwich is.
He says he really likes the clean taste of their sandwiches, but I was left unimpressed. The sandwiches were cold cut and the menu was pre-​set. So not toasted, without flexibility that I adore from Subways. Not to mention that if I hadn’t asked for hot peppers to be added, it would’ve been one pretty tasteless sandwich.
So yeah. I’ve had better. Not impressed.

Evidently Jimmy John’s is a national chain that is steadily expanding across the country. Their specialty– subs! What a coincidence because I happen to hold a Ph.D. in that department.
I heard a radio ad for this place and said to myself, «hmmmm, something different, ohhhh, what the heck, let’s try it!!!». For those of you that read my reviews regularly, you probably know that occasionally something bad happens when I listen to myself regarding trying some new place or going on an ill fated (but wildly popular) «dating experience».
This particular location is down the street from the U. of MD campus and is amongst a row of restaurants, bars and shops filled primarily with students and other folks associated with the university.
I will make this really simple: this place is a faster serviced, comparably priced but lower quality version of Subway. I ordered the «Beach Club», which features fresh baked turkey breast, provolone cheese, avocado spread, sliced cucumber, sprouts, lettuce, tomato and mayo.
Start to finish, it was pretty bad. The positives were that it was literally ready in like 3 minutes. It was also around $ 6. Then… I unwrapped the paper to unveil an unappealing mess. No focus on flavors whatsoever, everything was all over the place from the presentation to the ingredients just canceling each other out. What a waste!
Bottom line, I have a new found respect for Jared, the Subway guy!

When I say I love Jimmy John’s, thats an understatement…
I’ve only tried two of their sandwiches, the J J Gargantuan and the #9 Italian Night Club end of discussion. They have the best cold hoagies in this area in my opinion. You will not be disappointed and they’re extremely fast.
The J J Gargantuan is a huge sandwhich, a great deal. This is a two serving sandwhich. If you eat this at one sitting, thats straight greedy lol. Normally I’ll eat one half and save the rest for the following day its that hearty and filling.
The prices are reasonable might I add *wink*

Yummy sandwiches, quick service, reasonable prices, open late. That’s A-​OK in my book!
They don’t toast their sandwiches, but I can’t say I miss it much considering how tasty their freshly made bread is. I generally get the roast beef or turkey– but I’m pretty sure you can’t go wrote with any of their deli meats.
Why only 3 stars? There’s nothing here that’s too out of the box, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Jimmy John’s is a great spot to grab a quick sandwich at a great price.
Do beware of one of the employees… there’s some guy there who’s quite the grumpster and might even raise his voice when demanding you order your sandwich…
