I hadn't been here in years as I moved and haven't really been back. Finally made it back and I'm happy that I did. As it always has been, it was clean inside and the atmosphere is comfortable. The staff, even after many years is still as friendly as always. Best part, their cheese sticks and pizza remains the same. Personally, this is a place I'll travel three hours occasionally just to eat there. Keep it up. read more

My first and last time to try Mr Jim's. I'm surprised at how thin the sandwich is both vertical and horizontal. The flavor is OK. It says it has lettuce, but you can hardly find it. The bread is less than a quarter inch thick on each side and doesn't taste very toasted. It's very limp. And less than a quarter inch thick bread it's so smashed, extremely disappointed read more

1st time here: nice decorations inside, clean men's bathroom, bunch of high school kids working all nice. Had the large Cajun chicken....really dry sandwich needed more mayo or something... also toasted too much like way too crispy. Large home cut fries!!!!!! Wow!!!! The best and shared for 2 people, like really good fries. Also had a meatball sandwich... average to above average. Over all... nice job I'll try some other sandwiches soon and of course another large fry. read more

Mister Jim's is truly a staple of Great Bridge! They are located on Battlefield right across from the Great Bridge shopping center. First of all, they have such a huge, broad menu with endless options! They have pizza, burgers, subs, cookies, salads, Philly cheesesteaks, gyros, wings. They have it all. You can't go wrong! I have eaten here so many times and I try to get something new each time, but I do have my favorites. I love the chicken salad sandwich. I get it toasted and add bacon. I love my sandwiches with a bag of sea salt potato chips. Another classic is the southwest egg rolls. These are sooo delicious and very popular. The owner, Lamar, is super nice. Love my girl Sandy at the front. Make sure to tip the staff as they are constantly busy and working hard. read more

I just don't understand how folks think their sandwiches are all that. I started a job with the city recently and have been ordering delivery since doing so, no sandwiches just what I call bar food (southwest egg rolls and lumpia mostly-items made elsewhere and cooked on request) but I was in the mood for something else so I gave them another shot and ordered a pizza steak. Now, imagine my disappointment when I found my pizza steak was 'tender steak' as noted on their menu but steak ums. I have no issues with steak ums but if that's what you're selling, then tell me. Not lead me on with the promise of real, tender steak only to be given steak ums. I feel as if I've been catfished. Shame on y'all. I took the steak ums off and threw it out. If that was what I wanted I could have made that myself. read more

Used to be my go-to for subs but this ish right here.... Had to have them remake it and this what I got. Still trying to figure out where the meat is. You'd think with 15 people appearing to be making orders everything would be ok but it just seems they are just plain rushing and not focusing on quality. You call in to order still have to get a buzzer. If you're busy, say you're busy and don't have people waiting for crap like this! Ended up just going to Zeros on my way home cause I just couldn't get myself calm enough to eat this. read more

I have been coming here for yrs and food quality has not changed, even through covid. The tea, sandwiches

Wish there was a Virginia Beach location, but always a treat to stop in when i go to Chesapeake. Subs are delicious and the fresh cut fries are amazing! read more

I ordered the roasted turkey cheese sub and it was awful. There was two slices of turkey with a depressing price of half melted cheese. This was just a bread sandwich. Also no mayo on it. read more

High time I update my review here. This review actually covers 2 experiences. One was a dine-in and the other was delivery. One of the luxury's of living in Great Bridge is that Mister Jim's has delivery. It was a cold winter evening back in January when I discovered I was within their delivery zone. After verifying on their website I setup an account, logged in and made the order. I've always had subs here, and was ordering one then, however I came across a deal for a second item and added a pizza to the list. I really didn't know what to expect with their pizza but I figured WTH, I can use it for lunch during the week. About 45 minutes later my deliver arrived and not only did I have an incredible 'Bridge Club' delivered but a rocking pizza that filled the whole box. I had the club sub for dinner and one corner slice of the pepperoni pizza. It was delicious and was so much more than I was expecting. The pizza ended up being lunch for the following two days. The second dine-in experience here was literally the weekend before all the current stay at home started. I was already in the shopping center picking up my starter plants for the garden and decided to get some lunch while I was out. I had a lunch combo with my favorite 'Bridge Club' some chips and iced tea. Ohhhhh.. So good. It's such a wonderful toasted sandwich that really hits the spot. Mister Jim's has been around forever. They opened in 1972, which makes them 48 years old. I've been going since the mid 80's when I was in high school. In those days driving out to Great Bridge from Va Beach seemed like a road trip unto itself. I digress. This place has staying power, and they make epic food. If you live in Chesapeake then you probably already know this.... and if you don't.... What are you waiting for? read more

We placed a take out order of 9 subs. We ended up with 6 inches too much of the subs but they were all correct! It was confusing at first, but we got it figured out. I can only speak to the tastiness of my pastrami and rye sub. The rye bread was soft and the Swiss cheese was milky. The portion size was okay. I'm used to pastrami and rye sandwiches to be piled with meat. This one wasn't. The sub asks if you want sweet or hot peppers. I asked for sweet, but I could only find a couple peppers on the whole thing. The ones on it were very tasty. From the rest of my group I heard things like, "This bread is soft" and "there's so many toppings I don't know how to eat this." Be careful with the online ordering. It timed out for us and we lost our first order. read more

Mister Jim's - Pastrami and Rye - Sandwiches Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

The sandwiches here are VERY good! Worth the trip. The French fries were also great while hot. Tasty with malt vinegar on them. And they have the awesome kind of nugget ice, if I remember correctly. Fresh cookies, too! The seating atmosphere is not to my taste, though. Kinda like a Waffle House without the table service. They have outdoor seating that I'm sure is nice when the weather permits. I'll bet they deal with some demanding customers, given the area of Chesapeake they are in. I try to be cheerful and grateful when I go in, hoping to brighten up their day. But I've only been there a few times. Now I'm craving a sub. Haha! read more

Amazing service, extremely friendly and patient staff, with all the selections and substitutions. The food is very good, and their gyros are not the best I've ever had, but extremely close, and the staff makes the difference. I would stop to eat here every time I am in the area. Very good! read more

Rude counter lady!!!!! Ordered from one who rushed me. Second lady rudely said 20 minute wait for sandwich. Yeah no! Def not going to revisit. Sandwich was barely average. read more

Local favorite. We order from here once or twice a month. We love the City Hall Burger, The Jubilee, and they have great cheesesteaks! Don't forget to try their cookies and fresh cut fries! Service is good and we love the atmosphere from their remodel years ago. read more

Poor quality ingredients. Willing to wait for better food but this was one and done for us.

Really cute place. Fast service. My husband likes the subs. I went to pick one up for him. Whoever was working the register was extremely rude. I said thank you. She just looked at me. When the sandwich was ready she just tossed it on the counter and turned away. read more

A friend suggested this place, service was outstanding! Now the sandwiches I got were great and ok! The pastrami on rye was great, I throughly enjoyed it and I'm sure I'll get it again! The cheesesteak was just ok, I think it was the American cheese they use instead of provolone! It wasn't bad I felt it was missing something, I'll try it again to see! Now if I could get the pastrami on a hoagie roll I'd give them 5 stars! The pastrami was really really good! Nice place, atmosphere was good and service was great!!! read more

Great subs , Philly cheese steaks and homemade fries. Fast service and the food is excellent and always consistent. The restaurant inside is so clean. I would definitely try this iconic restaurant thats been in Chesapeake, Va since 1972. Get a few subs for parties or the beach. You can't go wrong. read more

Ordered Mr Jim's for delivery yesterday for my Dad and I Not a difficult order Steak and Cheese and Ham and Cheese subs. Both sandwiches had certain omissions to them, but both were made perfectly. Arrived at my home quickly and the driver even followed the door directions. Would most definitely order from them again, and helping out a local business is also a huge benefit read more

Love coming to Mister Jims whenever visiting Chesapeake. Great fast food at reasonable prices. The deluxe cheesesteak was so big I had the second half for lunch the next day. The fresh cut fries rival In & Out on the Left Coast. read more

Mister Jim's - Great food, reasonably priced. - Sandwiches Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

The best subs, onion rings , ice tea and friendly service with a smile. The delivery boy was so nice and polite! I will order again!

They sold out of corned beef, but I was able to get a pastrami sandwich for St. Patrick's Day, and it was amazing. I only wish I had found this place sooner. Highly recommended read more

Poor Service, unfriendly, passive-aggressive. A prime example of the privilege demonstrated by the entire great bridge area, complete with all the self-centered drama. Way too immature, way too many teenagers working. Food was undercooked as well. At least the place was nice and clean. Teenagers were too busy talking about personal drama as opposed to working. Did not inspire confidence. read more

We have ordered from here twice in the last week as we move into our house and get settled. The first time we tried various sandwiches and the second time we did pizza. Both were delicious! The only fault I found was they were a bit slow. The 15 minutes they told us for our pick up ended up being 50 the first time. But the quality of the food helps make up for that quite a bit. read more

Great subs, great variety, and great service! And a fun atmosphere dining outside. The delivery is excellent as well.

Mister Jim's has been a staple for good subs in Great Bridge for years. I especially like their Steak and Cheese subs and pizza. Got to love the square pizza. Although it does seem that you get better quality items during the day. Either way, the food is good, the location is good, and the employees are friendly. Also they believe in community involvement and support local non-profits. read more

Great food and service and always pleasant no matter how busy they are! Love them! And the cookies are amazing!!!

I'm not a sub person. I don't really like sandwiches for lunch but I love this place.

Mr Jim's Special Sub toasted with a Birch Root Beer is a good time eat! There is a reason this place has been around since 1972, good food.

Mister Jim's is apparently a Chesapeake institution and after getting one of their subs to go, I can see why. Not just regular cold cut subs, but they also do Phille Cheesesteak, burgers, salads, pizzas, gyros and chicken wings. It was a little overwhelming at first, so when my eye cause the "Bridge Club" that's what I went with. The gal behind the counter asked if I wanted everything and I told her to make it the usual way. Yum. Roast beef, bacon, turkey, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and mayo. Toasted. Yum! Next time, maybe a reuben. Or a burger. Or a gyro. Oh, the decisions! #4900! I love round numbers! read more

Love this place. The subs are soo good and so are the cookies!! Highly recommend!!!!!

Subs are pretty good, but don't do curbside pick-up. They suck! I called and they hung up on three times. Finally had to go inside because they must've forgotten about me. I'm not even sure the female that answered the phone even heard me on the third call. SMH EDIT: No, she didn't hear me. When I walked in and said I'm here for my curbside pickup. The smarty pants asked "Why are you here then?" The call taker blamed me for her ineptitude. She said I hung up on her. Nice business practice. read more

I attempted to order three pizzas through their website logged into my profile and when I checked out and put my debit card information in I was charged $59.95 for three pizzas but my order did not go through. I called the store to check if I was missing some thing and they looked it up and there was no order. Now I understand a hold on my account means they don't have the money, but when talking to the manager they seemed very unconcerned. So basically if I want to order pizza from them I will need to pay an additional $60 to get my order and then wait 3 to 5 days for the other $60 to become available in my account. Do not order from them if you're not going to do it on the phone or in person. They have horrible technology and customer service. read more

Love me a Philly Cheese Steak Deluxe! Delish need this while watching my Phillies never disappointed

Was born on the east coast but have lived in California for years. Flew into Norfolk to meet my family for Christmas in (on?) the Outer Banks, and we stopped here to pick up food on the way to our rental. It was a great start to my holiday. It's hard to find acceptable cheese-steaks where I live, so this was a great treat, and I'll be sure to return if ever in the area again! read more

They have fallen off. Their cheese steaks used to be decent and so was the cheeseburger sub but it's just overpriced and nasty now. Little options this clown claims while they charge $15 for a sub and fries. Embarrassing and nasty. read more
