Wondering what Jersey Mike’s gluten-free menu options are?
As someone with gluten sensitivity, I personally understand how hard it is to find “safe” places to eat when I’m on the go. But every once in a while, a fast food restaurant comes through.
If you’ve been missing out on your favorite sub sandwich, Jersey Mike’s gluten-free menu might change your life. Just saying.
Wait, Is Jersey Mike’s Gluten-Free?
You might be wondering, “Does Jersey Mike's have gluten-free bread?” The answer is yes! While this sandwich restaurant is best known for its white and whole wheat sub sandwiches, Udi’s sub rolls can be substituted for nearly every hot or cold sub on Jersey Mike’s menu.

Is There a Separate Station for Gluten-Free Subs?
I couldn’t find conclusive information on separate stations, but it seems that this may vary between franchises.
That said, Jersey Mike’s takes celiac-friendly food seriously. Team members are trained to put on new gloves before opening packages of gluten-free sub rolls. They are obligated to use sterilized knives and separate utensils that haven’t touched other bread products. GF sandwiches are prepared on sheets of parchment paper to avoid contact with gluten.
Note: If your local Jersey Mike’s shop seems confused about preparing gluten-free sandwiches, we’d recommend avoiding the risk. Be sure to contact management to lodge a complaint.

A Note about Jersey Mike’s Sauces
I dug around for official information on Jersey Mike’s sauces, but their website’s menu doesn’t seem to provide those. Rather than offer an unofficial opinion, I recommend asking the restaurant staff for more details.
While mayonnaise is typically gluten-free, it isn’t safe for celiacs if the tools or bottle tips touch non-GF bread. For safety, I’d recommend grabbing individually sealed sauce packets and adding them yourself.
