Hobe Sound residents will soon have another spot to grab “a sub above.”
Jersey Mike’s plans to open a new location at 8855 SE Bridge Rd., according to the Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation.
The upcoming spot will be led by franchise owner Jason Rex, who has spent 15 years with the brand, starting as a district manager.
Jersey Mike’s will feature the brand’s signature design and serve its full menu of hot and cold subs.
Standout menu items include the “Jersey Shore’s Favorite,” made with provolone, ham and cappacuolo; the “Big Kahuna Chicken Cheese Steak,” topped with grilled onions, peppers, mushrooms, jalapeños and extra white American cheese; and the “Club Supreme” made with roast beef, turkey, swiss, applewood smoked bacon and mayonnaise.
Customers can order any sandwich “Mike’s Way,” topped with onions, lettuce, tomatoes, an olive oil blend, red wine vinegar and spices.
Jersey Mike’s Subs got its start in 1956 as a family-run submarine sandwich shop on the boardwalk of the Jersey Shore. In 1975, 17-year-old Peter Cancro, who worked at the original Mike’s, bought the business with a loan from his football coach after learning the owner planned to sell. Cancro remains the company’s CEO today, overseeing more than 3,000 locations nationwide.
The sub shop also recently surpassed Chick-fil-A for the highest customer service rating among the nation’s quick-service restaurants, ending Chick-fil-A’s decade-long run at the top.
An official opening date has not yet been announced. Visit Jersey Mike’s website and follow along on Instagram and Facebook for the latest updates.
