Not sure why, but Jimmy John's just doesn't seem as good as it used to. I do wish delivery wasn't so expensive. I only live about six blocks from this location but they charged about $5 to deliver ($4.49 plus 10% sales tax on top of that), then the driver was saying he wanted a tip on top of that. As a result, I just don't ever order Jimmy John's as the $8-9 or whatever they're expecting in total for delivery makes it awfully expensive. It just seems like they're pricing themselves out of business, and I wish these companies would just pay drivers whatever is fair for delivery and ditch this silly tipping game. I'm just trying to get a sandwich, not manage their employees for them. Anyways, occasionally I'll walk in and order. Also, why are they charging sales tax on delivery service? I thought services weren't taxed. read more

I love this Jimmy John's! All of the employees are friendly, patient, and a lot of fun. Awesome music and great atmosphere. Food is always delicious. read more

Took them an HOUR to deliver a single sandwich to me. Apparently they delivered the sandwich to the wrong address, and never updated in the app that it was delivered. I called after I waited 20 minutes for my food after the app notified me it was out for delivery. From my understanding based on what I was told on the phone, instead of making me a fresh sandwich, they went to the location where it was left, picked it up, and took it to the right location 30 minutes after it was supposed to be delivered. Nothing was done to try to make this right. I won't be ordering from here again. One sandwich shouldn't take an hour to deliver when I live about 3-5 minutes away by car. Very unhappy with this. read more

It's Jimmy John's so you can't go wrong . The food is about same as any other location but the service is really good. If you want something quick to grab n go this is your place. read more

On multiple occasions, I have had my sammich in my hands before I'm even finished paying. This JJ is ultra fast... and it may or may not have to do with it being overstaffed. There's someone to yell a greeting to you as you walk in, someone to take your order, a few heads on the sammich line, a cashier, and I'm pretty sure we got a farewell holler too. How about they donate someone to the bake-Tricia-some-of-that-awesome-wheat-bread-on-a-daily-basis cause? read more

You want super fast food and amiable service? Well, this is the place to go for super fast 8" subs. You'll need to pay for the parking meter though to eat at this place. read more

I love Jimmy John's. Jimmy John's is my sub sandwich shop of choice. I love the insanely fast service and the mind-blowingly delicious bread and fixings. That is why I dropped by here on my most recent visit for a quick lunch before driving 4 hours back home. Speed was not this location's problem. Nor was space. They were both efficient and huge with about 8 people working. Granted, they were not really busy when I stopped in. I got my 'usual.' That is, a #2 (roast beef) with hot peppers, easy on the mayo. Not difficult, to be certain, and MAJORLY delicious. In about 30 seconds, my sandwich was handed to me. I sat down, unwrapped it, and was treated to what can only be described as a wet sub. Wet. Mayo was dripping out of the corners, but not because there was too much...but because it was wet. Wet with what, I'm not sure. I think perhaps they didn't shake the vinegar off the hot peppers, or didn't squeeze the lettuce properly or something. It was pretty gross and I was pretty disappointed. Also, most of the tables still had crumbs and refuse all over them. There were about 3 customers in this enormous place, and 8 workers. To me, those tables could definitely have been cleaned in a timely manner. read more

My second stop on my Champaign food tour was to pick up Jimmy Johns on the way to the hospital. I needed something that I could take into my Mom's hospital room (which ruled out Papa Del's) so I stopped by this Jimmy Johns. I was in and out in about 2 minutes, with a delicious sub in my hand. What makes these subs so good is the bread... the best I've ever had at a sub shop. They do really pile on the mayo though, but that's part of JJ's experience... 100 x better than Subway! I wish they had a Jimmy John's in Phoenix! read more

This is my first time ordering at Jimmy John's, so this is only a first impression: I ordered online for a late lunch (about 4 PM, so before the dinner rush) and delivery was pretty good- about 15 minutes. Since these places only deliver at a 2 mile radius and don't have to cook anything, it's pretty standard. I can imagine that their dinner rush deliveries would take longer. I ordered the 8 inch Ham and Provolone (which comes with mayonnaise, lettuce, and tomato) but the only issue I have is that they put globs and globs of mayo on my sub, which, in all honesty, doesn't taste good considering the bread is plain and they use the minimum amount of meat. I will say that the price is more than fair because: 8 inch sandwich Bag of JJ chips 20 oz bottle of coke Delivery fee Comes to about $9.90, which is great. So with my tip, I paid 12 bucks. I just think that the subs are pretty tasteless, unfortunately, I personally prefer Subway. I will admit though, the delivery is faster than other places, the price is very fair, and the driver was very nice. It's just a shame the food isn't as great as everyone says. It's the only reason it gets 3 stars. What good is great service and prices without the taste? I probably won't order here unless I am desperate to eat fast food, without having to walk to grab a bite to eat. Next time, I'll probably try wheat bread with a sub that has more meat on it. :) read more

Great service, tasty sub (Billy Club+hot peppers), very clean establishment, tons of staff! Keep up the great work. read more

Jimmy John's - The Billy Club, yum - Sandwiches Near Me - Urbana, Illinois

Probably my favorite thing about this place is how fast it is. They literally have your sandwich made in like 2 minutes, it's beautiful. And the sandwiches are really good. I've never been unhappy with Jimmy Johns, it's perfect for drunk food, sober food, all food. I even had it for breakfast once. Rather than having to fuck around with specifying EXACTLY what you want while they take ages moving the stupid sandwich down the line like at some OTHER sub shops, Jimmy Johns already knows what you want and they are not time wasters with your dinner. Plus it's not too expensive, and sometimes they accidentally give you free cheese. Turkey Tom all the way! read more

Very fast service and great delivery people. Perfect on a cold day you don't want to leave the office. There aren't a lot of great options within walking distance near me and Jimmy John's has never failed me. Granted this is generally for speed over quality, but when you're in the mood it beats something greasier, and it is a fairly customizable. However, their customer service today is slipping. For the first time, the receptionist - who did have a hard time with English - got my order wrong. I asked for a Country Club and got a Club Lulu, which is bacon not ham. I called and the manager was not apologetic. "It says here you ordered a Club Lulu." but I had never heard of the sandwich before, so how could I have ordered it? No I don't want to wait another 10 minutes for the right sandwich, just apologize and give a longstanding customer a rebate/free sandwich on their next order. That'll cost you less and be better customer service, and I'll still be sure to tip well. (I shouldn't have to tip twice for the same sandwich, nor should some nice delivery guy not get a tip. My guess is they have turnover problems) Two strikes and you are almost out; it's almost springtime and walking doesn't look so bad. I won't be so merciful on the update. read more

Funny story! I was in the ER after a bad fall and several other people and I had waited many hours. We were still not even in rooms because they were so buisey. So a few of us were hungry and ordered Jimmy John's. And they delivered right to this ER waiting room. Best Turkey Tom I have ever had. And we all appreciated at least Jimmy John's being fast that night. They got us our food in less than five minutes! read more

I have been ordering from this this location since 2014 and have had decent service. However, this location has been unsatisfactory this year (2017) and I will no longer be ordering from this location. They absolutely refuse to include napkins when they deliver your order. I have selected the option for napkins, included it in the additional comments section and have verbally asked for them whenever I order over the phone and not once have they included them. I am tired of this location's disregard for their customer. read more

If you're hungry, let the neon sign that says, "FREE SMELLS" lure you in. The sandwiches are tasty and the service is incredibly fast. By the time I finished paying for my order, my sandwich was already wrapped & ready to go! Maybe it's PMS or maybe it's just me but sometimes I just want a sandwich. Right now. read more

Very clean restaurant ..eat in or super fast home delivery..GOOD FRESH food..employees are helpful and nice.

well, that was fast! my sandwich was made before i even finished paying. The bread wasn't anything to write home about. The whole experience was simple, fast, and easy. read more

Your standard Jimmy Johns. They made your subs fast, empty your wallets even faster. This place was great since last year I lived in PAR (worst dorm ever at the time) so it just was a quick walk/bike ride away. I don't order much from here anymore with so many other options around, since I live pretty far away from Lincoln now, but if you're in the area and looking for some quick food, definitely the place to stop at. read more

I'm slightly confused at the high ratings. JJ isn't bad. But everyone raving about the bread? It's average. Yes, delivery is crazy fast, and they are just slightly better than other huge chains, but is that our standard now? Better than the worst? The workers here are okay - they can be a bit on the rude side, but it depends who you get. Personally, I'd rather go to a local joint, one that is not being sued for wage theft and accused of making its employees (even drivers) sign unprecedented non-compete clauses. read more

This is by far the best Jimmy John's in town, and there's a lot of them. Order is correct every time and when the manager is working I don't even have to tell them what I want because he already knows. From what I've heard this is one of the corporate flagship locations and it absolutely shows. According to legends, this location is the birthplace of jimmy ranch. read more

Subs So fast you'll freak. Sandwich done before you put your change in your pocket.

I love their tuna sandwich, my favorite. Bread smells good, the vegetables are fresh. The best is that it is super quick. Order is ready even before I finish paying read more

I've been to many Jimmy Johns around Central Illinois, but this one is by far the best. The restaurant is a great size, so there is always seating and the service is very fast. I mean faster than they claim. I love the sandwiches and will never get tired of eating here. The only downfall is that you have to pay the meter to park in their lot. read more

Today I had a Big John w/o mayo, and it was just about heavenly. I asked for Hellmann's Mayonnaise packets on the side and applied it to my liking and for some reason it tasted way better than the mayo they use (which I am pretty sure is Hellmann's Mayo as well). Anyways, today was the best experience I had from Jimmy John's thus far. And may I add, FAST SERVICE! :) JJS is gnarly. (not to keen on the prices though-- for a college student {or atleast me} they tend to be a tad bit pricey [for any 8in. about $4.25 for pickup/$5.25 for delivery]. If you are wondering: "Why only 3 stars?"... Well Jimmy John's Sandwiches are no frills get your sandwich and go kind of place, it is a franchise that makes for somewhat decent lunch/dinner option for busy college students/or anyone. read more

This was the first JJ's I ever ate at. The army of sandwich artists working at this location had our sandwiches made literally 10 seconds after we ordered, beating out all of the other locations across the U.S. I've been to. Everything was made as ordered and tasted great. read more

I've been here many times. I get a perfect portion of food when I am hungry. They hand me the sandwich by the time I can walk around the counter. The employees are always motivated and fun. read more

I love Jimmy Johns. I have ate at everyone in Champaign. They rock and the speed is awesome!!!!!

Just did my training here and the staff rocks as well as the product. I had a couple sandwiches and they were beyond what I expected. I would recommend this Jimmy Johns to anyone in this area! read more

Man, worst sandwiches ever. I'd rather eat out of a dumpster. The roast beef was green. Bread was soggy. It gave me the runs

Only cut one of the 3 sandwiches I ordered in half, didn't put any napkins in the bag when we asked for it, and got charged for avocado spread when there's barely any (probably dime sized amount) in the sandwich. read more

Who wouldn't love this place?? The weather is crap so we order Jimmy Johns. Order it at 1:39...he rings my bell at 1:50. Needless to say the food is great. From ordering to receiving its an all around good experience. read more

It gets three stars because if Jimmy Johns great quality. The girl behind the counter on Friday evenings needs some training on customer service. A lot of "I know what you ordered" shit with her and our order still got fucked up. Also the little college girl smirk doesn't work when you can't do your job very well. read more

I actually really like the subs at Jimmy John's. They're pretty much no-nonsense quick cold subs. No salads, no soups, no toasting. You can get chips and a cookie if you want, but that's pretty much all for sides. (I think they might have pickles too?) Anywho, the subs are huge and tasty and very quick! read more

omfg. Today these guys pissed me off. This store has some students working of course since it's around campus. But some of them are dumb mother ****s. I ordered 1 cookie.. they charge me for 2.. I ordered 2 sandwiches with cheese on it, which apparently these bastards also charge extra.. however they put no cheese on it.. I was so surprised when they did this because it felt like they were trying to trick and rip me off! Guys.. learn from my mistake.. Check your receipt ALWAYS before you leave. And i guess I'm gonna have to check my f-ing sandwich every time i order it before i leave since these idiots don't even know how to make a sandwich with proper order.. This particular place blows.. read more
