Sub in a Tub (Keto)
Any sub can be made as a "Sub in a Tub": all the fillings over shredded lettuce, no bread. It's the go-to low-carb option.
Gluten-Free Bread
Many locations offer gluten-free bread for an upcharge (often around $1.50 to $2). Sandwiches are made on shared surfaces, so it's not ideal for celiacs.
Secret Menu Terms

- "Rosemary parmesan bread": a popular bread upgrade at many locations
- "Extra juice": more vinegar and oil

Jersey Mike’s Ordering Tips
Jersey Mike’s slices meats and cheeses fresh for each sub, and small choices can make your sandwich better.
Bread choices
White and wheat are standard. Many locations also offer rosemary parmesan bread, which adds a savory, herby flavor that pairs especially well with Italian subs. Gluten-free bread is available at many stores for an extra charge.
Getting “Mike’s Way” right
- Ask for extra juice if you like a tangier sub.
- Ask for light juice if you’re taking the sub to go and want to avoid soggy bread.
- Add pepper relish or cherry pepper relish for a kick.
Hot sub tips
Hot subs like the #17 Philly are cooked on the grill. Add jalapeños or banana peppers for heat, or ask for extra grilled onions and peppers for more flavor.
Saving money
A Giant sub often costs less per inch than two Regular subs, so it’s a smart choice for sharing or for two meals. Check the Jersey Mike’s app for rewards and occasional promotions.
Taking subs to go
If you’ll eat later, ask for oil and vinegar on the side so the bread stays firm, and keep the sub chilled until you eat.
