The Complete Mike's Way Guide: Ingredients, Copycat Tips, and Menu Hacks
By David Miller
Does getting a sub Mike's Way cost extra money at Jersey Mike's?
No. Mike's Way is included in the base price of any sandwich on the menu. The onions, lettuce, tomatoes, oregano, salt, vinegar, and oil are considered standard toppings and incur zero additional fees.
What is the difference between Mike's Way and an Italian sub?
An Italian sub refers to the specific meat and cheese combination, typically ham, prosciuttini, cappacuolo, salami, pepperoni, and provolone. "Mike's Way" refers strictly to the topping and dressing style (onions, lettuce, tomatoes, spices, oil, and vinegar) that can be applied to any sub, whether it is turkey, tuna, roast beef, or ham.
Can I get mayonnaise or mustard with Mike's Way?
Yes, but you must ask for them separately. Mayonnaise and yellow or spicy brown mustard are not part of the Mike's Way build. Slicers typically spread mayonnaise directly on the bread before applying meats if requested, then proceed with the standard Mike's Way toppings on top.
Is The Juice safe for gluten-sensitive diets?
The red wine vinegar, olive oil blend, and spice mix used in The Juice contain no gluten ingredients. If you order a sub in a tub (Jersey Mike's salad-style bowl) or on certified gluten-free bread, getting it Mike's Way is generally gluten-free, though cross-contamination can occur along the preparation line.
