Goodbye Jersey Mike's

It's not like their subs didn't suck ass.

I can't believe they stayed in business. Worst subs I've had, worse than Subway even.

Not sure where you're talking about, but Jersey Mike's has been the best sandwich around for a long time. Subway has been complete shit for like 20 years.

Jersey Mike's is pretty solid.

Subway is heavily franchised and the quality is generally poor to average

Maybe it's a location thing. Subway sucks ass, the Jersey Mikes here where I am makes a good Sandwhich.

Super club with extra vinegar is awesome. Best chain subs. Guess not for long though.

Worse than Subway? That's a bold claim. I find that hard to believe.

I agree that they're not great. They don't suck ass but it's not where I'd ever choose to go again. They're alright at best.

Subway does suck ass. Probably due to their poor choices at almost every intersection.

Jersey Mike's > Subway But both are not even in the top half for me.
