Jimmy John's is a US sandwich chain known for fast delivery and simple subs on French bread. The menu also includes Unwiches, wraps, toasted sandwiches, sides and cookies.
A good Jimmy John's order depends on the sandwich style, whether you pick up or get delivery, and using a code or reward on the right basket.
Picking a Jimmy John's sandwich
Jimmy John's sandwiches are numbered, like the #9 Italian Night Club and the #12 Beach Club. The numbers make ordering quick.
Slims are smaller, cheaper sandwiches with just meat and bread. They suit kids or light eaters.
The Gargantuan is the big one. It is worth it only if you are very hungry or sharing.
Bread, Unwiches and wraps
Jimmy John's offers French bread, thick-sliced wheat and the Unwich. An Unwich uses lettuce instead of bread.
Wraps are another option at many locations. They are easier to eat on the go.
Unwiches suit low-carb diets. Ask a doctor if you have specific dietary needs.
Toasted sandwiches
Jimmy John's has added toasted sandwiches to the menu. These are hot versions with melted cheese.
Some codes and deals only apply to toasted sandwiches. Check the terms before building your order.
Toasted sandwiches travel well for short distances. For long deliveries, cold subs may hold up better.
Delivery or pickup
Jimmy John's is known for fast local delivery. Delivery fees and minimums vary by store.
Pickup avoids the delivery fee. Order ahead in the Jimmy John's app and skip the line.
Catering boxes and party platters are available for offices. Order these in advance.
Freaky Fast Rewards
Freaky Fast Rewards is the Jimmy John's loyalty program. You earn points on orders and trade them for free food.
Some offers only appear to members in the app. Check your rewards before paying.
Rewards and codes may not combine. Check which gives the better saving at checkout.
Sides and add-ons
Jimmy John's Chips come in several flavours. They are a common free item in deals.
Cookies and pickles add to the total fast. Keep an eye on the bill.
Drinks are also available. Check prices before adding.
Customizing a Jimmy John's order
Every Jimmy John's sandwich can be changed in the app. You can add extra meat, swap cheese, or add toppings like cucumber, hot peppers and Jimmy Peppers.
Each add-on raises the price a little. A few extras can turn a cheap Slim into the cost of a full-size sub, so watch the running total.
Ordering a sandwich "Jimmy style" adds lettuce, tomato, onion and mayo to Slims. That gives a fuller sandwich without paying for a bigger size.
Notes for the kitchen are easy to add. Use them for simple asks like light mayo or cut in half.
Ordering for a group
For offices and parties, Jimmy John's sells boxed lunches and party platters. These are easier than ordering ten separate subs.
Boxed lunches usually include a sandwich, chips and a cookie. They suit meetings where each person needs their own meal.
Give the Jimmy John's store plenty of notice for large orders. Delivery windows for catering can differ from normal orders.
A BOGO code works poorly on catering, since platters are often excluded. Use the $5 code there instead, and check it applies.
Timing your Jimmy John's order
Lunch rush is the busiest time at most Jimmy John's stores. Ordering a little before noon can speed up delivery.
Late-night hours vary by location. Check your store's hours in the app before planning a late order.
Many Jimmy John's deals appear on set days, such as weekday promotions. Check the app's offers page before you build a basket.
Checking a Jimmy John's delivery
Open the bag when your Jimmy John's order arrives and check every sandwich label. Custom orders are easy to mix up at busy times.
If something is wrong, contact the store or use the help option in the Jimmy John's app. Having the order number ready makes it quicker.
Tipping the driver is done at checkout in the app. Delivery fees generally go to the store, so decide on a tip separately.
Leave clear delivery notes for apartments and offices. A gate code or building name saves the driver time and keeps your sandwich fresh.
Where the Jimmy John's savings are
The BOGO code is the best deal for two people. Pick sandwiches of similar price, since the cheaper one is usually free.
The $5 code works best on a larger Jimmy John's order. Check the minimum at checkout.
The free chips code adds value to a small order. Use it when the other codes do not fit.
