Jersey Mike’s Subs Arrives in Downtown Toronto
Redberry Restaurants is set to debut Jersey Mike’s Subs’ first downtown Toronto location on Wednesday, January 22, 2025, in the Union Market area of Union Station. This milestone expansion brings the renowned sub chain to Toronto’s bustling business district, catering to commuters, shoppers, and tourists alike.
A Growing Footprint in Canada
This downtown Toronto opening marks the fifth Jersey Mike’s location launched by Redberry since August 2024. Previous openings include Markham, North York, Brantford, and Guelph, with Pickering set to join the lineup soon. The six locations collectively employ nearly 180 crew members. Redberry also operates two remodeled locations in Kitchener and London.
As part of an ambitious expansion strategy, Redberry aims to open 300 Jersey Mike’s locations across Canada over the next decade.
Grand Opening and Community Support
To commemorate the launch, Redberry will host a grand opening fundraiser from January 22 to January 26 to benefit Make-A-Wish Canada. Customers can donate a minimum of $3 using a special fundraising coupon to receive a regular sub. Coupons will be distributed via a grassroots campaign before the opening.
Early visitors will enjoy additional perks, including a Jersey Mike’s-branded hockey puck for the first 500 guests. Guests can also download the Jersey Mike’s app to earn a free sub with their first in-app purchase.
Sub Above: Fresh Ingredients and Signature Flavors
Jersey Mike’s is celebrated for its fresh-sliced meats and cheeses, served on in-store baked bread with a selection of fresh vegetables. The iconic “Mike’s Way®” subs include onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and a signature blend of red wine vinegar, olive oil, and spices. Guests can also savor authentic cheesesteaks, grilled to order.
Ken Otto, CEO of Redberry, shared his excitement:
“We have arrived at the heart of Canadian commerce in Toronto’s downtown business district, and we are just getting started. We can’t wait to offer effortless access to our ‘sub above’ experience to countless commuters, shoppers, and tourists.”
Community Impact and Beyond
Jersey Mike’s embodies a commitment to giving back, aligning business success with social responsibility. Last year, the brand raised nearly $19,000 for Make-A-Wish Canada.
The Union Station location will operate daily from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., offering a convenient and delicious dining option for all.
