Jimmy John's - Port Richey

About Us

The Beginning
Our founder, Jimmy, had two options after high school - head to the military or open a business. He opted for sandwiches, and in January of 1983, the first Jimmy John's was opened in the college town of Charleston, IL. The menu consisted of four sandwiches, made just like they are today with hand-sliced meats and always fresh-baked bread.

The Original Sandwiches
We launched our menu with 4 sandwiches - smoked ham and provolone, hand-sliced turkey, homemade tuna salad and capocollo & salami. From there, we've built our menu to 18 different sandwich offerings, using a combination of the above and a few new additions, like medium-rare roast beef and applewood smoked bacon. The first 4 sandwiches, The Pepe®, Totally Tuna®, Turkey Tom®, and Vito® are still fan favorites.
