Nothing hits the spot like a sub—and nowadays there are vegan options at almost every fast food chain, even at Jersey Mike’s. The sandwich shop might not offer a dedicated vegan sub yet, but don’t worry—we’ve got the hacks. With a couple of simple swaps, you can build an animal-free sandwich that is delicious and satisfying. And since Jersey Mike’s has over 2,800 locations nationwide, you can snag a quick, compassionate bite just about anywhere. Here’s how to do it.
Ordering Vegan at Jersey Mike’s
The Veggie
Hold the cheese and ask for it Mike’s Way—with freshly sliced onions, shredded lettuce, and tomatoes, all topped with their signature “juice” (a red wine vinegar and olive oil blend). Add avocado for a heartier, more filling bite!
Grilled Portabella Mushroom
Fresh portabella mushrooms are grilled to perfection alongside crisp green bell peppers and onions, creating a hearty, savory sub that’s packed with flavor and totally satisfying. Just order it without cheese.

Jersey Mike’s: The People Want Vegan Meat and Cheese
Every animal is someone who feels. Cheese comes from extreme cruelty to cows, including farms tearing calves from their loving mothers. The meat industry violently slaughters animals for their flesh. The most compassionate thing you can do is go vegan. By ordering vegan at popular food chains, you’re sending a message to companies that kindness sells—and that customers want delicious food without cruelty on the menu.
