when i want a cold cut sandwich i go here to get their un-wich. its a lettuce wrap that you can customize or order any existing sandwich as. all flavors are awesome, my favorites are the gargantuan, beach club, club lulu, veggie club, blt, and the vito. the gluten free menu is the un-wich, chips and drinks only.

tip: for a unwich dont go for the slim sandwiches, unless that is what you want-the unwiches for them tend to be smaller. to get more bang for your buck, get the regular or bigger sandwiches as unwiches. the more meat and free condiments you add the bigger your wrap will be. :)

They were open to changing their gloves but told me about 8 times “we can’t guarantee that it’s gluten free”, trying to get me to not order. I got it anyway and was fine! I worked at a Jimmy John’s for 2 years and if you do an Unwich with no mayo (ask for mayo packets on the side), no spreads, no lettuce (bread crumbs get trapped in the lettuce bin a lot), insist that they change their gloves, and ask them to be careful, you should be good! A quick and tasty lunch :)

Let me start by saying any Jimmy John’s I go to I never get sick when I order their unwich ! The unwich is their only gluten free sandwich and I DO NOT miss the bread it is lettuce wrapped and seriously delicious I would suggest adding their oil and vinegar and some Italian seasoning they have makes the lettuce tastier ! They also have a gluten free potato salad and list everything on their app and website including any allergens and gluten !
