Eating gluten free at the sub shop. What's the point, right? Well, when the food and service are as good as Jersey Mike's, it might just be worth it.
I had read online that this sub shop had some gluten free offerings so I decided to give it a try. We were lucky to go early enough in the day because it wasn't busy. The manager at the Naperville, IL location was great. He walked us through the menu and explained the "sub in a tub", which is the gluten free option. I could see crumbs all over the preparation area so I asked if he could take precautions to prevent cross-contamination. He immediately understood and made sure his staff used a different preparation area and changed into new gloves.
I ordered the Italian sub in a tub with all the oils and spices. It tasted great. Essentially, the sub in a tub is the sandwich fixin's (sans bread) served in a plastic clamshell thingy. My lunch-mate had the turkey and provolone on white bread. The bread looked and smelled amazing, so stay away you Celiacs if this is too tempting for you! Otherwise I highly recommend this sub shop.
