I’m usually very pleased with my experience at jersey mikes Madison, however today was different. I came here with my special needs students and we were treated so rudely. Upon arrival we were given dirty looks and asked if “we all needed to be here at once.” One woman making the sandwiches refused to take our students order and instead made us write down every order on paper, and then proceeded to get mad that she had to make all the sandwiches.

I had a coupon that was one day expired and I asked if he'd honor it to let me try their product. He agreed so I came in. Griffin was courteous, professional, and welcoming over the phone. He gets an A+ for sales/customer service. Food was fresh. Other workers need more Jersey Mikes ops training (Like how to make a not-messy sandwich) but that will come in time...
