Jersey Mike’s Subs, known for its fresh sliced/fresh grilled subs, will open in Bend on July 8. Franchise owners Robert Messih and James McGaha, will hold a grand opening and free sub fundraiser to support Bend High School.
The new restaurant, located at 222 NE Emerson Ave., is circulating 7,500 coupons throughout the community offering a free regular sub for a minimum $1 contribution to Bend High School. Customers must have a coupon to be eligible.
“We are excited to announce the July 1st grand opening of our second Bend location with a new restaurant located at 3rd & Franklin Streets in the Walgreens Plaza,” said McGaha. “This Eastside location will complement our existing Westside restaurant on SW Century Drive and we will continue our efforts to give back and support great causes in our neighborhoods. For this grand opening, we hope to rally the Bend community to come out during this period to help us raise money for Bend High School.
“Both of our Jersey Mike’s Subs restaurants in Bend are locally owned and operated; and we greatly appreciate the tremendous support of our customers,” he said. “During our first eight months of operations at our S.W. Century Drive location, we were able to raise thousands of dollars for such well deserving organizations as Cascade Youth and Family Services, Summit High School and numerous other local groups. We look forward to continuing to support our community partners for years to come,” said McGaha.
Messih and McGaha are exemplary Jersey Mike’s franchise owners who share the company’s commitment to quality products and exceptional customer service, and who are dedicated to giving back to the local community. Since 2010, Jersey Mike’s locations throughout the country have raised nearly $13 million for worthy local charities and have distributed more than 1 million free sub sandwiches to help numerous causes. This year, the company’s 5th Annual Jersey Mike’s Month of Giving in March raised more than $3 million for 150 local charities throughout the country.
Started in 1956, Jersey Mike’s now has 1,500 restaurants open and under development nationwide. In 2015, for the second year in a row, the company was named the #1 fastest growing chain in the Nation’s Restaurant News Top 100, and continues to win best sub awards in virtually every market it enters.
The growth is fueled by passionate Jersey Mike’s fans who crave their subs made Mike’s Way® with the freshest vegetables – onions, lettuce and tomatoes – topped off with an exquisite zing of “the juice” – red wine vinegar and olive oil blended to perfection. Jersey Mike’s premium meats and cheeses are sliced on the spot, piled high on in-store baked bread and served up with a helping of neighborly banter from a dedicated and high-energy team.
The restaurant’s hours are 10am to 9pm, seven days a week. You can contact this location directly at 541-728-0315.
