Redberry Opens First Downtown Toronto Jersey Mike’s Subs at Union Station
TORONTO, Jan. 15, 2025 – Redberry Restaurants (“Redberry”) will open the first downtown Toronto Jersey Mike’s Subs in the Union Market area of Union Station on Wed., Jan. 22, 2025, giving Toronto’s business district, commuters and visitors the chance to enjoy the authentic fresh sliced/fresh grilled sub sandwiches offered by the iconic brand.
The downtown opening is part of Redberry’s long-term plan to open 300 Jersey Mike’s locations in the next 10 years. It is the fifth Jersey Mike’s Redberry has opened since August 2024. Other locations have opened in Markham, North York, Brantford and Guelph. A Pickering location is also coming early in the new year. These six locations will employ nearly 180 crew members in the Greater Toronto Area. Redberry also owns two existing and recently remodeled Jersey Mike’s locations in Kitchener and London.
To celebrate the new Union Station location, Redberry will hold a grand opening and fundraiser from Wednesday, Jan. 22 to Sunday, Jan. 26 to support Make-A-Wish Canada. Customers who receive a special fundraising coupon distributed through a grassroots effort prior to the opening can make a minimum $3 contribution to Make-A-Wish in exchange for a regular sub. Customers must have a coupon to be eligible.
Customers without a coupon will have a limited-time opportunity to download the Jersey Mike’s app and earn a free regular sub after their first in-app sub purchase and will also be able to support Make-A-Wish Canada via a donation box near the register. The first 500 guests at the grand opening will receive a Jersey Mike’s branded hockey puck.
“We have arrived at the heart of Canadian commerce in Toronto’s downtown business district and we are just getting started,” said Ken Otto, CEO, Redberry. “We can’t wait to offer effortless access to our ‘sub above’ experience from the venerable halls of Union Station to countless Toronto commuters, shoppers and tourists and we are eager to continue supporting Make-A-Wish Canada during the first five days of our grand opening celebration.”
Making a Difference
Jersey Mike’s believes that making a sub sandwich and making a difference can be one and the same. Last year, in Canada, between the company’s annual Month of Giving in March and the Markham and North York opening fundraisers, Jersey Mike’s raised nearly $19,000 to help Make-A-Wish Canada. In addition, $2,396 was raised for Child Hunger Brantford and $2,645 for the Children’s Foundation of Guelph and Wellington.
Fresh Sliced/Fresh Grilled
Jersey Mike’s premium meats and cheeses are sliced on the spot and piled high on the in-store baked bread. Jersey Mike’s fans crave their subs made Mike’s Way® with the freshest vegetables – onions, lettuce and tomatoes – along with an exquisite zing of “the juice,” red wine vinegar and an olive oil blend, topped off with our signature spices. Authentic cheesesteaks are also grilled fresh to order.
The restaurant’s hours are 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week. You can place orders in-store, on the Jersey Mike's app, online at www.jerseymikes.ca, and on the national delivery apps. Catering orders are also welcome.
