Their sandwiches are made with fresh vegetables – onions, lettuce and tomatoes – topped off with a zing of ‘the juice’, red wine vinegar and an olive oil blend. It also offers authentic cheesesteaks that are grilled fresh.
Founded in 1956, Jersey Mike’s Subs now operates some 2,500 locations nationwide.
