What people say

Jimmy John's on W. Wilson Avenue in Chicago is a must-visit for sandwich lovers. This counter-serve chain specializes in sub and club sandwiches that are made with fresh ingredients and served with their signature potato chips. The Jalapeño Ranch Wrap is a fan favorite, bringing the heat this season and making the forecast look extra hot this summer. The Kickin' Ranch sauce is also a hit, with customers even sneaking it into baseball games as the best hotdog dip. Jimmy John's also offers new dessert options like the "just for the fudge of it" treat. Their Caprese Salami Pesto sandwich may have left the menu, but there are still plenty of delicious options to choose from. With locations all over the world, fans are manifesting more Jimmy John's stores to open up in their dream locations. And if you're a mom who brings JJ's pickles as a halftime snack, you know where to go for your next game day treat!
