Thread: Jimmy John's

Can someone open this sandwich shop in the LA area? Went to some Irish Pub in Reno, had them deliever a sandwich and i really liked it. Roast Beef Sandwich and a Smithwick's. That was good!

We've got those all over here in Chicago. Their bread is really good. The gargantuan is pretty satisfying if you get the chance again. I agree with the roast beef though, good stuff.

hard to compete with 5 dollar foot longs. opening a shop in this economy would be a bad idea. Have you seen the lines at Subways lately

but Jimmy Johns is just so damned good, there is one in fresno. its the closest I think.

Subway sucks. We have actually been hitting Quizno's pretty hard lately. We also like Jersey Mikes A LOT! Would be intrigued to try Jimmy John's.

imo, it blows them all out of the water

Jimmy John's is fairly pricey. For my money Jersey Mike's is the best of the big national chains. I like Capriotti's here in Vegas and back east, but it has a more limited reach

You are correct, the only one in CA is in the Fresno area. I wish I had a chunk of change, I would open one up in the SFV area. I believe they cater to the closely to many colleges/universities.

For the most part, a sandwich is a sandwich to me. What stood out was the fresh bread and it was a 100x's better than a subway sandwich. Just my 2 cents!

Two other sandwich places that are pretty good. 1. Lawry's at LA Live has GREAT bread. 2. Medocino Farms Downtown La.... Yummy!!! That's my problem.... I LOVE BREAD!! and why I now ride my mountain bike more often. (to keep a firm...)
