My only interaction with Jimmy Johns has been at my Baltimore conference. There is a Jimmy Johns in the hotel, and it's the cheapest place you can go for lunch without needing to go outside. In February, which, in Baltimore, is pretty damn miserable. My major disappointment with their fare is that they seem to have a misunderstanding as to what actually constitutes a "club." It's about more than just bacon. It's all about that slidey marriage amongst three slices of toast, tomatoes, lettuce, bacon, and the primary sandwich filling. Jimmy Johns misses that by a wide margin.

Overall, for just plain sandwiches, they aren't bad. There is interesting crap on the walls to read while you eat, and they manage to deal with high traffic times fairly efficiently.

But their house-brand chips are quite good, and they do that all you can drink so you can be fatter thing.
