Mike's Way

A Taste Profile That Keeps Them Coming Back

The authentic sub sandwich, served Mike’s Way with onions, lettuce, tomatoes, olive oil blend, red wine vinegar and spices, is what differentiates Jersey Mike’s from the others. Authentic means fresh sliced, premium quality meat and cheese. It means bread baked fresh daily in our stores. It means that every morning we hand slice only the freshest onions, lettuce and tomatoes to top our subs. It means Canada AAA Beef. Our 99% fat free turkey is whole muscle meat with no fillers. Our tuna is made fresh in the store. Our cheese steaks are fresh grilled while you wait along with onions and peppers for that authentic Philly taste. Why do we insist on making our sub sandwiches the same way we’ve been making them since 1956? Because we refuse to compromise on quality or freshness. Our commitment to quality, freshness and authenticity has helped us win Best Sub and Best Sandwich Awards in virtually every market in the United States. It will help you by bringing back customers again and again to satisfy their craving for authenticity.

“Want to have that Mike’s Way?”

Our product is just half the reason for our passionate following. The other half is our in-store experience. The Jersey shore motif in our stores sets the stage for service Mike’s Way. Our service experience is like a summer weekend at the Jersey Shore: bustling and busy, but fun and relaxed. Service is fast but not rushed, casual yet purposeful, efficient but filled with crew banter that keeps it fun and makes the line move quickly. Crew interaction and customers ordering their favorite sub by number add to the experience of getting the world’s most authentic sub.

Culture Mike’s Way

Franchisee and Crew

When the founder of a franchise company actually runs a store for years, the result is a different kind of company culture: one that is completely focused on store-level profitability and franchisee success; a culture that offers a balanced lifestyle.

Our franchisees are not only excellent business people, they are tireless community leaders, too. Everything about the Jersey Mike’s culture revolves around our commitment to our customer and to the community. It is why we care so much about the quality of our food and the level of service in our restaurants. It’s why we get involved in local causes. It’s why we choose a charity to support as part of every one of our grand openings. Integrating into the community is an essential part of Mike’s Way to Success!
