Jersey Mike's Subs is a submarine sandwich, or "sub", chain headquartered in Manasquan, New Jersey. At age 14, Peter Cancro of Point Pleasant, New Jersey took a job at Mike's, a neighborhood sandwich shop founded in 1956 and then on its third owner. Like the original Mike's store in 1956, each Jersey Mike's Subs serves submarine sandwiches made to order, slicing the meats and cheeses as needed.
