Jimmy John’s

Their delivery is SUPER fast! I love the turkey tom and salt and vinegar chips. It’s very hard to refrain from having them deliver to me multiple times a week.

Been here a ton of times, but on my last visit, I was grossed out. So, all of the employees were out, except one. I watched this guy answer two phone calls, place orders on the computers, ring up the lady in front of me, touch her credit card, then ring me up, and make my sandwiches… all while wearing the same pair of plastic gloves. Catch my drift? I said something, and he said, «yea…I’m the only one here.» Hmmmmm… someone needs to watch the health and safety corporate training videos again.

I am a very frequent customer and stopped in for a to go order for me and one of my customers today. We just got some pretty gross and bad turkey on a turkey tom. I politely called the store and they sent me to the manager. He told me I would have to bring it in as proof. He said he doesn’t know me from someone who is trying to get free food. Not only I am out a lunch and time to go get more lunch but he had no problem in replying in a manner that he didn’t care if I ever came back. Except for me hanging up on him, I was very calm and polite the entire call. Shame on you Jimmy Johns if this is your policy. You just lost a good customer who purchases single and tray orders.

Sat and waited for over 5 minutes for the general manager to finish taking a dump just so he could tell me that he couldn’t give me one piece of lettuce wrap to compensate for another jimmy johns that gave me my unwich on bread. Wouldn’t have been a big deal if I wasn’t allergic to wheat. I understand that your privately owned, but one piece of lettuce isn’t going to break the bank. If I could make it back to the other jimmy johns, I would have. Thanks to no human compassion, I now have to eat my sandwich like a dog, piece by piece.

I went into JJs with my son on a very cold, single digit degree night last week. We usually carry out if we go into a place like this but we stayed and ate inside. I had the Hunter’s Club (roast beef) and my son had the Vito (Italian). The bread and ingredients were fresh and the sandwiches were tasty and enough to fill us up. The place was clean and we had fun reading the funny signs posted on the walls. Anyway, although the sandwiches are basic, they were delicious and satisfying. I would stay and eat again. Well, maybe it helped that it was warm and toasty. .. yeah, the bread was for sure, but I mean being inside JJs on a freezing night.

If I have that craving for subway type sandwiches, I always go to my favorite sub place, Jimmy Johns, just walking distance from my house. Their bread is always baked fresh daily; you could tell as soon as you walk in the door and smell the bread baking in the oven. This particular location is new to this area, it is always clean, and the staff is always very nice. Even when I have my sub delivered across the street («yes Im lazy»), the delivery guy is always friendly and courteous and you can count on them to deliver your sub within 15 to 20 minutes.
My all time favorite is the Italian Nighclub with a side of jardonnaire and Jalapenos. You cant get better than this sandwich, they always stack the bread mile high with my favorite cuts of meats like real genoa salami, Italian capicola and smoked ham, topped with a slice of provolone cheese. It just have enough of a kick to satisfy my hunger.

I had been to previous Jimmy John’s, but had not been impressed.
This particular location, which is rather new in my neighborhood, has so far been «ok». Of the 4 – 5 times I’ve been to this location since it opened, they have not gotten my order exactly correct more than once.
They are either forgetting condiments, including condiments that I have expressly told them not to put in, or put it on the wrong bread, even though I’ve told them to put it on the other type of bread.
Regardless, their sandwiches have tasted way better than my other Jimmy John’s experiences, so, I will continue to go back and HOPE they will get my order correct sometime. (I don’t like to send back my order because I know they will probably just toss it and I hate seeing food wasted. It wasn’t that the food was completely something I wouldn’t eat, it just means I waste some of the condiments instead of none.)
But, as a very closeby sandwich shop… I will definitely go to the Streamwood JJ in the future.

Unapologetically simple sandwiches. Fresh bread. Great attitude (the traditional JJ «free smells» neon sign displayed loud and proud).
On our first trip to the shop, they struggled with my wife’s order (a «slim 4» — turkey, cheese, bread… that’s it) and ended up putting sprouts and mayo on it, much to her dismay. No worries though, they fixed it up and a new sandwich came rocketing out in under 30 seconds.
Everything is really affordable. Try the vito of the billy club. Skip the chips and get a pickle instead!
