Insider Pages Reviews for Fat Jacks Super Subs

5 Stars: Simple + Authentic + Honest = Quality (by by JayMJones at Citysearch)

Delicious chewy bread with a crunchy flaky crust and fresh high quality ingredients; what else do you need to make a good sandwich? Most Denver sandwich shops don't get this simple equation. Fat jacks does and this is what makes them so special.

It's unfortunate that other reviewers have had problems with correct orders. I have been eating from fat jacks for at least five years and they have never made one mistake. Plus, they make sandwiches appear like magic. I'm usually in a rush at lunch and even if there is a line they usually get me in and out in less than five minutes.

I have a thing about the value of simple pleasures in life, and Fat Jacks is one of those rare places that just makes you feel good.

Everybody I have turned on to Fat Jacks loves it so I know its not just me. Fat Jack's is now the go to place for order in lunches at my office (again, never a single mistake in orders)

If you are tired of sandwich shops with careless slackers spreading way to much pesto or roasted something or other on your sandwich, and you desire something simple, honest, authentic and high quality go to Fat Jacks.

My recommendation: #20 - The Pastrami (just the way they make it)

This place rocks. They are normally faster than they estimate and their sammies are awesome. They are pretty big and priced right. Every once in a while the sandwiches seem inconsistant in size. The ingrediants are fresh and tastey/ They also deliver all over the place. Recommended in from our house!

5 Stars: Fantastic Sanwiches, Great Service, Convenient Hours (by by katie09 at Citysearch)

Fat Jack's is perhaps the best sandwich place in the DU community. They have a great selection at moderate prices, and the staff is always friendly. I find it hard to believe that some people are disappointed in Fat Jack's. The only time I have ever had a problem is they forgot to put something on my sandwich, and the next time I ordered they gave me my entire meal for free. They are open late, which is great for college students, and they deliver until 3 on the weekends. I love it!

2 Stars: Fat F for Fat Jack... (by by strapshoechris at Citysearch)

This has to be the most disappointing delivery experience I had in Denver from ANY place.
The driver arrived soon after I called, but the sandwich was ALL wrong. Every vegetable I asked them to HOLD was there, along with mayo and vinegar I clearly told them I diden't want. I guess they don't know what "compleatly plane" means...The driver came back 45 minutes later with the correct sandwich finally, and it was ice cold. I was told the place doesn't have any means of heating sandwiches, including a microwave oven! Come on, Jack, this is the 21st century. Even Subway will mic. your sandwich if you insist. I then asked the driver how long I should heat my sandwich for to nicely melt the cheese, and he diden't have a clue... Sorry, no tip. Next time I'll get in my car and drive to a Quizno's...

1 Stars: sloppy, sloppy, sloppy (by by captainvw at Citysearch)

Over the last 6 months, I have ordered from Fat Jack's every 2 weeks or so, and have been lucky if 50% of my orders have been filled correctly. From missed side items like cookies or soup, to messed-up special orders, to 2-hour wait times, these guys always seem to find a way to get it wrong.

They also seem to close whenever they want - I called tonight at 11:15pm and was told that "no more orders are going out tonight" - but their menu states that they deliver until midnight! Not the first time this has happened...

Anyway, too bad, independent sandwich shops with quality ingredients and late delivery are a rare breed in Denver. Unfortunately, these guys just don't seem to care enough! I hope they can pull it together...

5 Stars: Awesome subs! (by by clee2322 at Citysearch)

I love the subs here. I go at least once a week. Each time it is consistently great, fast and there is a huge selection of subs. There is always fresh baked bread and fresh sliced deli meat. Give it a try and you'll be craving it. Fun and friendly staff.

Fat Jack's is a awesome place, being a past employee, I can honestly say the atmosphere within is great, the food is great, and the owners are wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend this place to anyone! It was one of my favorite places to work and it couldn't get any better!
