To subvert grumpy monarchs, angry medieval youths scrawled condiment graffiti such as "Fran Tanner has plague" or "the king is a jerk" inside their submarine sandwiches. Dig beneath lettuce to bring history to light with today's Groupon: for $7, you get $15 worth of sleek subs, wraps, and salads at Jersey Mike's Subs. This Groupon is only valid at the Rosa L Parks Boulevard location.

Peruse the menu before filling your fingers with flavorful subs such as the Jersey Shore's Favorite (provolone, ham, and cappacuolo, $4.29–$9.25) or a hot, steaming chipotle cheese steak (grilled onions, peppers, chipotle mayo, $6.25–$9.75). Those preferring foldable casing can turn any sandwich into a wrap for no extra charge, or select one of the restaurant’s wrap-specific options, such as the baja chicken (sliced grilled chicken breast, melted provolone, salsa, lettuce, and jalapeños, $6.49). Lighten and brighten the mouth's workload with a tossed salad (fresh greens, tomatoes, green bell peppers, and cucumbers, $3.99), or overload taste receptors with a club supreme (roast beef, turkey, swiss, bacon, and mayo, $4.79–$9.95).

Jersey Mike's has been churning out stacked eats since 1956. In that time, it has mastered the sandwich by infusing quality ingredients with careful craftsmanship. Snag a well-built, aerodynamically shaped sub that promotes maximum hand-to-face transfer speeds and also doubles as a passable football during pick-up games in the park.
