Jersey Mike's Menu Prices 2026: Subs, Mini/Giant Sizes & Mike's Way

The #13 The Original Italian — the chain's signature sub — is priced at approximately $10.99 for a Regular (7"), $5.99 for a Mini (5") and $16.99 for a Giant (15") at most U.S. locations as of May 2026. Pricing runs higher in California, the Northeast and Hawaii; ordering 'Mike's Way' adds no charge. The #13 is loaded with provolone, ham, prosciuttini, cappacuolo, salami and pepperoni — sliced fresh to order in front of you.

Mike's Way is Jersey Mike's signature sub-build. When you order any sub 'Mike's Way,' the line staff dresses it with lettuce, tomato, onions, oil and red-wine vinegar, oregano, and salt. There's no upcharge — it's the default way the brand recommends every sub be ordered. For hot subs, 'Mike's Way + Hot' means those same toppings layered over a freshly grilled cheesesteak or chicken Philly. The vinegar-and-oil blend (the JM red-wine-vinegar mix, not Italian dressing) is what distinguishes Mike's Way from a generic dressed sub at other chains.

Jersey Mike's subs come in three sizes: Mini (~5 inches), Regular (~7 inches), and Giant (~15 inches, feeds 2-3). On the #13 Original Italian, that's roughly $5.99 / $10.99 / $16.99. The Mini is the cheapest entry point on the menu. The Giant is the value-per-inch winner — it costs about 55% more than a Regular but is more than twice the bread and protein. A Wrap is roughly the size of a Regular and similarly priced. Sub-in-a-Tub is Regular portion in a bowl with no roll.

Yes, on a like-for-like basis. A Jersey Mike's Regular (~7") #13 Italian runs about $10.99; a comparable Subway 6" Italian B.M.T. runs about $6.49. A JM Giant (15") at ~$16.99 sits a touch above a Subway Footlong B.M.T. at ~$9.99. JM's positioning is premium — the chain slices meats and cheeses fresh to order in front of you rather than working from pre-sliced product, bakes sub rolls in-store daily, and uses higher-grade proteins. For value-priced sub combos Subway wins; for quality-per-bite, JM is the consensus pick among reviewers.

The #56 Big Kahuna Cheesesteak is Jersey Mike's loaded cheesesteak — the Famous Philly Cheesesteak plus grilled mushrooms, grilled green peppers, jalapeños, grilled onions and extra cheese. Regular runs about $12.99, Mini $7.49, and Giant $19.49. It's one of the chain's most-ordered hot subs and pairs traditionally with Mike's Way fixings on the cold side after grilling. Big Kahuna Chicken Philly is the same build with chicken instead of steak.

Sub-in-a-Tub is Jersey Mike's bowl format: any sub built without the roll, served over a bed of lettuce in a tub. It's the chain's low-carb and gluten-friendly option — you keep all the meats, cheeses, hot-grill items and Mike's Way fixings, just no bread. Most builds run around $10.49–$11.99. Popular options include the #13 Italian Sub-in-a-Tub, the Famous Philly Sub-in-a-Tub and the #56 Big Kahuna Sub-in-a-Tub. There's also a catering bowl format that serves 8-10.

Yes — and this is the chain's biggest point of differentiation. Every meat and cheese on the cold-sub line is sliced fresh in front of you when you order, on dedicated slicers behind the counter. The chain does not work from pre-sliced product or pre-built sub kits. Sub rolls are baked in-store throughout the day. This is the primary reason JM is positioned (and priced) as a premium chain compared to Subway, which uses pre-sliced meats and pre-baked bread shipped frozen.

The Annual Day of Giving is Jersey Mike's signature charity event, held the last Wednesday of March each year. On that single day, 100% of sales from every U.S. Jersey Mike's location — every sub, drink and side, not just profits — is donated to a chosen local charity partner (each franchise picks its own partner from a vetted list). The 2025 Day of Giving raised more than $25 million in a single day, and the 2026 event is scheduled for the last Wednesday in March. It's run as part of JM's broader Month of Giving fundraising campaign throughout March.

Jersey Mike's identity is East-Coast Italian-American sub-shop tradition, not strictly Italian. The chain was founded in 1956 in Point Pleasant, New Jersey as 'Mike's Subs,' renamed Jersey Mike's Subs in 1971, and bought by current CEO Peter Cancro in 1975 when he was just 17. The signature sub — the #13 Original Italian — is built on Italian cold cuts (prosciuttini, cappacuolo, salami, pepperoni), and the brand leans heavily into Jersey-Italian-deli styling. But the menu also includes American cheesesteaks, club subs, turkey, and chicken-salad options that aren't strictly Italian.
