All of these are really solid. Except I'm not sure I've had Jersey Mike's.

Jimmy Johns is great. I love their bread.

 

They just opened Jersey Mike's in Bel Air, but I haven't made it over yet. Replaced a Quizno's, which I also always liked but haven't had in a long time.

Quizno's is bleech
Jersey Mike's is meh.
Haven't had Firehouse or JJ

So I guess Potbelly wins by default.

Lemme get two claps and a Ric Flair

Never had Firehouse. Jersey Mike's is really good so I'll go with that ever though potbelly is good too.

Tie between jersey mikes and firehouse, although firehouse is a little less messy.

They're all good.

There is baseball, and occasionally there are other things of note

I'd go to Which Wich over those, but sandwich places are sandwich places.  Nothing wrong with any of those, except Jimmy Johns.  Those are gas station sandwiches that somehow went mainstream.  Subpar in every area.

I like Jersey Mike's, but they need to do something about their ordering system.

I don't like cheese on my sandwiches, and, literally, every time I have ordered there they have put, or tried to put, cheese on my sub. And I am not misusing the word literally here. It has it has happened literally every time. It's to the point now where I have to watch the guy making it and yell at him to take the cheese off when he puts it on.

The bigger takeaway there is that you don't like cheese on sandwiches. Weirdo.

I try not to when I can. That's a good 60-80 calories saved.

Definitely. But there are ways to compensate for that on a sandwich.

Need to try Firehouse. Just got Jersey Mikes into my lunch rotation about 2 months ago.

I don't either...only time I want cheese on a sandwich is a grilled cheese or a grilled chicken sandwich.

Do you get a cheesesteak and hold the cheese?

I don't usually eat steak subs but yes, I would hold the cheese.

Now, if it's on there, I'm not going to throw it out or think it's awful but I wouldn't order it.

But if it's chicken, I want cheese on it, at least in most cases.
