First 100 guests to pass through the doors tomorrow will receive a free sandwich and drink – all others receive discounted sandwiches all weekend long
Jimmy John’s, the popular sandwich chain known for its Freaky Fast® service and fresh, made-to-order sandwiches, announces the grand opening of its newest location in Ottawa on Friday, October 24.

To mark the occasion, the restaurant will host a weekend-long celebration packed with special offers and community fun. On opening day, the first 100 guests will receive a free sandwich and a 16oz fountain drink. After the first 100, all guests can enjoy $5 Classic Sandwiches, a deal that continues all weekend long, from Friday through Sunday.
Located at 120 Blanca Street, in the south of the city, the new Jimmy John’s brings Ottawa a fresh take on fast food featuring hand-sliced meats, crisp veggies, and bread baked in-house daily. From signature favourites like the Italian Night Club® and Chicken Bacon Ranch to classics like the Turkey Tom®, every sandwich is made fresh when ordered and served with Jimmy John’s signature speed.
“This opening marks another exciting phase in our expansion across Canada,” said Peter Mammas, President and CEO of Foodtastic, the company responsible for Jimmy John’s expansion in Canada. “Canadians have shown tremendous enthusiasm for Jimmy John’s since our first locations opened, and we’re proud to bring the brand’s signature quality, speed, and freshness to our nation’s capital.”
Doors open at 11 am on Friday, October 24. Guests are encouraged to arrive early to enjoy one of the 100 free sandwich offers and to stop by all weekend for the $5 classics.
