Introduction

This Jersey Mike's nutrition calculator shows you what is in your sub before you order it. Pick a sub, side, dessert, or drink. Then change the bread, size, meats, cheese, veggies, and sauces. The numbers update right away.

You can see calories, fat, saturated fat, sodium, carbs, fiber, sugar, and protein. You can also see vitamin D, calcium, iron, and potassium. Each nutrient comes with a % Daily Value, so you know how one meal fits into a full day.

Build a whole meal, not just one item. Add a sub, chips, and a drink, set how many of each you want, and get one total for everything. Charts show where your calories come from and how close you are to your daily limits.

Small changes matter. A Mini sub instead of a Giant, wheat bread instead of white, or no mayo can cut a lot of calories and salt. Test those swaps here, keep an eye on your sodium, and see if the sub hits your protein goal before you get to the counter.

Jersey Mike's Nutrition: What to Know

Jersey Mike's is a sub shop known for cold cuts sliced to order and hot subs off the grill. What you get in one sub can change a lot. A sandwich can go from about 300 calories to over 1,500 calories, depending on the size, the bread, the meat, the cheese, and the toppings you pick.

Size Changes Everything

Most subs come in three sizes: Mini, Regular, and Giant. A Giant holds close to twice the food of a Regular, so it also holds close to twice the calories, fat, and sodium. Picking a Mini is the fastest way to cut the numbers in half without giving up the sub you like.

Bread and "Sub in a Tub"

The roll is a big part of the meal. A white sub roll adds around 320 calories, 62 grams of carbs, and 640 milligrams of sodium on its own. Wheat bread adds more fiber. If you skip the bread and get your sub "in a tub," you drop most of those carbs and get a salad with the same meat, cheese, and veggies.

Watch the Sodium

Sodium is the easiest number to overlook at a deli. Cured meats like salami, pepperoni, cappacuolo, and ham are salty, and so is the bread. One Regular Italian sub can pass 2,000 milligrams of sodium, which is close to the whole daily limit of 2,300 milligrams. Hot subs with sauce and cheese add more. Ordering fewer meats, skipping the salt in the spice blend, and passing on pickles or banana peppers all bring sodium down.

Toppings and Sauces

Veggies like lettuce, tomato, onion, green pepper, and cucumber cost almost nothing in calories and add fiber and potassium. The sauces are where it adds up fast. Mayo is about 100 calories per serving, chipotle mayo and ranch are around 110, and the olive oil blend is about 90. Red wine vinegar, mustard, and plain spices add close to zero. Swapping one creamy sauce for vinegar and mustard can save 100 or more calories.

Protein Is the Strong Point

Deli meats are lean and high in protein. Turkey, roast beef, and grilled chicken give you a lot of protein for few calories, and the daily protein target for most people is about 50 grams. A Regular turkey and provolone sub can cover half of that. Tuna salad and pepperoni have more fat because of the mayo and the cured pork.

Sides and Drinks Count Too

A bag of kettle chips adds about 230 calories. A cookie runs 310 to 350, and a fudge brownie is around 400. Sugary drinks are easy to forget: a regular fountain cola has about 54 grams of sugar, and sweet tea and lemonade are close behind. Water, unsweetened iced tea, or diet soda keep your meal total much lower.

Reading Percent Daily Value

The % Daily Value, or %DV, shows how much of one day's amount a food gives you. It uses a 2,000 calorie diet as the baseline. Anything at 5% or less is low, and 20% or more is high. Use it to spot where one meal takes a big bite out of your day, especially for saturated fat and sodium.

Frequently asked questions

What is the healthiest sub at Jersey Mike's?

Lean meats on wheat bread with lots of veggies give you the best mix. Good picks include:

  • #7 Turkey & Provolone (high protein, low fat)
  • #6 Roast Beef & Provolone (lean beef, iron, and protein)
  • #14 The Veggie (lowest sodium of the cold subs)
  • Grilled chicken subs (about 24 g protein per portion)

Order a Mini, skip the mayo, and use red wine vinegar and mustard instead. That cuts calories and salt without cutting flavor.

How many calories are in a Jersey Mike's regular sub?

Most Regular subs land between 600 and 1,000 calories. A big part of that is the roll, which is about 320 calories on its own.

  • Turkey and provolone: roughly 600 calories
  • Original Italian: roughly 1,000 calories
  • Cheese steaks: 800 to 1,000 calories
  • Meatball sub: around 1,000 calories

A Mini cuts those numbers by about 40%. A Giant nearly doubles them.

What does sub in a tub mean at Jersey Mike's?

Sub in a tub means your sub is made without the bread. All the meat, cheese, and toppings go into a bowl over lettuce, tomato, onion, and cucumber. It becomes a salad.

Skipping the white roll drops about 320 calories, 62 g of carbs, and 640 mg of sodium from your order. It is the top pick for low carb and keto eating.

Which Jersey Mike's sub has the most protein?

Hot subs with steak or chicken pack the most. Philly steak has about 24 g of protein per portion, and grilled chicken breast has about 24 g too. Add cheese and the roll and a Regular cheese steak can top 45 g of protein.

Among cold subs, the #9 Club Supreme and #8 Club Sub are the highest because they stack two meats plus bacon.

How much sodium is in a Jersey Mike's sub?

A lot. A Regular Italian sub can pass 2,000 mg of sodium, which is almost the full 2,300 mg daily limit.

Cured meats are the main cause. Ham has about 640 mg per portion, prosciuttini about 610 mg, and cappacuolo about 560 mg. The white roll adds another 640 mg.

To cut back: order a Mini, pick one meat instead of five, skip the salt-pepper-oregano blend, and pass on pickles and banana peppers.

Does Jersey Mike's have gluten free bread?

Yes, Jersey Mike's offers a gluten-free roll. It has about 350 calories, 63 g of carbs, and 9 g of fat, so it is a bit higher in fat than the white roll.

The kitchen still handles wheat bread, so cross-contact is possible. If you have celiac disease, a sub in a tub is the safer choice.

What is Mike's Way and how many calories does it add?

Mike's Way means onions, lettuce, tomatoes, plus olive oil blend, red wine vinegar, and a salt-pepper-oregano spice blend.

The veggies add only about 25 calories total. The olive oil blend is the real cost at around 90 calories and 10 g of fat. The vinegar is zero calories, and the spices add about 190 mg of sodium.

Ask for light oil or oil on the side to keep most of the flavor with fewer calories.

Is a Jersey Mike's sub good for weight loss?

It can be, if you build it right. A Mini turkey sub on wheat with veggies and no mayo runs around 400 calories and gives you 20 g or more of protein. That fits most weight loss plans.

What breaks the plan is a Giant sub, extra cheese, creamy sauces, chips, and a soda. That combo can top 1,800 calories in one sitting.

How many carbs are in a Jersey Mike's sub?

The bread carries almost all the carbs. A white sub roll has about 62 g, wheat has about 57 g, and the gluten-free roll has about 63 g.

Meats and cheeses add close to zero carbs. Veggies add 1 to 3 g each. So a Regular sub usually sits between 60 and 75 g of carbs.

For a low carb order, get it in a tub. That drops most subs under 15 g of carbs.

Which is healthier: white or wheat bread at Jersey Mike's?

Wheat wins on most counts. Compared with the white roll, the wheat roll has:

  • About 20 fewer calories
  • 5 g more fiber (6 g vs 2 g)
  • 50 mg less sodium
  • 5 g fewer carbs

The extra fiber helps you feel full longer and is better for blood sugar. Wheat also brings more potassium.

What is the lowest calorie thing at Jersey Mike's?

Drinks and veggie sides sit at the bottom. Bottled water, unsweetened iced tea, and diet cola are all zero calories. A whole pickle spear is about 10 calories, though it holds 690 mg of sodium.

For food, a Garden Salad with vinegar dressing is under 100 calories. A Mini veggie sub runs around 350.

How many calories are in a Jersey Mike's cookie?

Cookies range from 310 to 350 calories each:

  • Oatmeal Raisin: about 310
  • Sugar Cookie: about 320
  • Chocolate Chip: about 340
  • Double Chocolate Chip: about 350

The Fudge Brownie is the biggest at around 400 calories with 38 g of sugar. That is more sugar than a can of soda.

Does Jersey Mike's have low sodium options?

Nothing at a deli is truly low sodium, but some picks are much better. Fresh veggies add almost none. Swiss cheese has only 55 mg per slice versus 290 mg for white American.

Roast beef is the lowest-salt meat at about 240 mg per portion, far below ham at 640 mg. Pair roast beef and swiss on wheat with fresh veggies, oil, and vinegar for a sub near 900 mg instead of 2,000 mg.

How much fat is in Jersey Mike's mayo compared to other sauces?

Creamy sauces are the highest. Per serving:

  • Chipotle mayo: 110 cal, 12 g fat
  • Ranch: 110 cal, 12 g fat
  • Mayonnaise: 100 cal, 11 g fat
  • Olive oil blend: 90 cal, 10 g fat
  • Russian dressing: 90 cal, 9 g fat
  • Marinara: 30 cal, 0.5 g fat
  • Mustard: 5 cal, 0 g fat
  • Red wine vinegar: 0 cal, 0 g fat

Swapping mayo for mustard and vinegar saves about 100 calories and 11 g of fat.

How many calories should a sandwich meal be?

For most adults eating 2,000 calories a day, one meal should land near 500 to 700 calories. That leaves room for two other meals and a snack.

A Regular sub alone often hits or passes that. Add chips and a soda and you are near 1,200 calories in one meal. To stay in range, get a Mini sub, or split a Regular and drink water.

Is tuna salad a healthy choice at a sub shop?

Tuna itself is lean and high in protein, but the salad is mixed with mayo. One portion has about 320 calories and 30 g of fat, making it one of the fattiest fillings on the menu.

It still gives you 12 g of protein and omega-3 fats. If you want tuna, order a Mini and skip the cheese and extra mayo. For less fat, pick turkey or grilled chicken instead.

What does 20% Daily Value mean on a nutrition label?

Percent Daily Value, or %DV, shows how much of one day's amount a food gives you. It is based on a 2,000 calorie diet.

The simple rule:

  • 5% DV or less is low in that nutrient
  • 20% DV or more is high in that nutrient

High is good for fiber, protein, calcium, iron, and potassium. High is a warning for saturated fat, sodium, and added sugar.

Are Jersey Mike's hot subs higher in calories than cold subs?

Usually yes. Hot subs come with more meat per sandwich, melted American cheese, and often grilled onions or sauce cooked in oil.

A cheese steak can run 800 to 1,000 calories in a Regular. A cold turkey and provolone sits near 600. The meatball sub is one of the highest because meatballs alone have 260 calories and 18 g of fat per portion.

The exception: the Original Italian is a cold sub with six meats and can beat many hot subs.
