Every
time we go down to 17th Street I look at this place and say that we
have to try it sometime. On Thursday doing the food shopping routine I
suggested to Arnie that after the Dollar Tree and Publix, on the way to
Winn Dixie we stop here and have lunch--and I didn't have a coupon! LOL

I
want to say it is a glorified Subways but it is way more than that. On
the window there is a sign that says "Free Smells" and it is that along
with a sight for the eyes. I don't usually suggest going to the web page
of a restaurant because you know it is a lot of hype but I do suggest
you go to https://www.jimmyjohns.com/franchise/franchise.aspx and read,
under the franchise icon, "The Real Deal and Why Mine Taste Better".

They
have 3 categories of sandwiches consisting of 8" subs ($5.25), giant
club sandwiches at $6.25 and plain slims for $4.25 plus a few
specialities like the J.J. Gargantuan for $8.25. They have many mottos
one of which is "Subs so fast you'll freak!" and it is true. It seems
just as we ordered our sandwiches they were ready. Arnie ordered a #15
tuna club, no cucumbers, ($6.25) while I told the guy at the register
what I wanted without looking at the menu, a basic turkey and cheese
with onions ($6), and before we even went for our fountain sodas ($1.25)
they were ready just as we ordered them!

I
was sort of taken aback at how much help they had, especially since it
was after the lunch rush,  and they all looked busy. The check, with
tax, came to $15.64 but, best of all, the sandwiches were good and
tasted FRESH!

For those on diets, or on a healthy diet, they will replace the bread with thick slices of lettuce that they call the JJ Unwich.

I definitely plan to go back there again and bring along Allen!
