Jersey Mike's Secret Menu

Jersey Mike's has no official secret menu, but staff can build off-menu favorites by request: the "Sub in a Tub" (any sub bread-free in a bowl), the Big Kahuna combos, loaded versions of classics, and "Mike's Way" tweaks. Order by ingredients to be safe.

Sub in a Tub

How to order: Order any cold or hot sub and ask for it "in a tub" (no bread, served in a bowl)

Turns any sandwich into a low-carb, salad-style bowl with all the same meats, cheeses and toppings; popular for keto and lighter eating

The Big Kahuna with Chipotle Mayo

How to order: Order a Big Kahuna Cheese Steak and add Chipotle Mayo

Combines the loaded Big Kahuna (steak, onions, peppers, mushrooms, jalapenos, extra cheese) with the smoky chipotle kick of the Chipotle Cheese Steak

Loaded BLT

How to order: Order the #1 BLT Mike's Way, then add extra pickles, banana peppers and chopped pepper relish (Rosemary Parmesan bread optional)

Grilled chicken cheese steak tossed in buffalo sauce; spicy, saucy take on the hot grill subs

Club in a Tub, Mike's Way

Ham, provolone, bacon and mayo turned into a hearty bowl with lettuce, onion, tomato and the oil-and-vinegar "juice"

Jersey Mike's secret menu FAQ

Does Jersey Mike's have an official secret menu?

No. Jersey Mike's does not publish an official secret menu. The "secret" items are customizations and combos that experienced staff can make on request, like the Sub in a Tub or loaded cheese steaks. To be safe, order by ingredients rather than by a nickname.

What is the Sub in a Tub at Jersey Mike's?

Sub in a Tub is any Jersey Mike's sub made without bread and served in a bowl. You keep all the meats, cheeses and toppings, just minus the roll, which makes it a popular low-carb and keto-friendly option.

Can I order any sub Mike's Way?

Yes. "Mike's Way" adds onions, lettuce, tomatoes, oregano, salt and the signature red wine vinegar and oil blend ("the juice"). It can be added to any cold or hot sub, and you can mix it with off-menu tweaks like extra peppers or pickles.
