Jersey Mike's

Okay, fellow sandwich lovers, let's talk cheese! Specifically, the burning question that brought you here: does Jersey Mike's have mozzarella cheese? I’ve been hitting up Jersey Mike's for years, and it's a question I've definitely pondered while staring at their menu board, dreaming of that perfect melty, stretchy goodness. Here’s the honest truth, based on my many visits: typically, Jersey Mike's doesn't have mozzarella cheese as a standard offering. Their traditional cheese lineup usually includes Provolone, Swiss, White American, and sometimes Pepper Jack for those who like a little kick. These cheeses are classic for a reason and perfectly complement their fresh-sliced meats and 'Mike's Way' toppings. Now, before you get too disappointed, let me tell you why this isn't necessarily a bad thing, and what you can do! Jersey Mike's leans into that authentic, East Coast deli sub experience, and those traditional cheeses fit that vibe perfectly. Provolone, in particular, offers a fantastic, mild creaminess that melts beautifully and pairs well with almost any sub. If you're a mozzarella fan, Provolone is probably your closest bet for that satisfying texture and flavor profile. I've definitely learned to appreciate the cheeses they do offer. For example, my absolute go-to is often the #13 Original Italian with provolone. The sharpness of the provolone against the cured meats and the tang of the red wine vinegar and olive oil blend (Mike's Way, of course!) is just unbeatable. Sometimes, if I'm feeling adventurous, I'll even swap the provolone for pepper jack on a turkey sub to get a little extra zing. While mozzarella isn't a regular on the menu, it never hurts to ask your local store! Menus can sometimes vary by location, or they might occasionally have a limited-time offering. However, it's pretty rare. My advice? Embrace the Provolone! It's a fantastic, versatile cheese that truly elevates their subs. So next time you're at Jersey Mike's, instead of searching for mozzarella, give their existing cheese selection a fair try. You might just discover a new favorite combination, just like I did!
