Jetties

We decided to order from Jetties for a recent meal during a work event and it was delicious. I ordered clam chowder which was flavorful and hearty a custom sandwich which was fresh and perfectly made. Jetties has a good menu with lots of options to make your own salad and/or sandwiches. They have a few locations around DC including the one in Georgetown. If you’re in the mood for a good, made-to-order sandwich or salad, check out Jetties.

Jetties in D.C. is a neighborhood gem known for its fresh, flavor-packed sandwiches and relaxed vibe. The “Nobadeer” — with turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and mayo on sourdough — is a year-round favorite that tastes like Thanksgiving in every bite. The “Monomoy” is another standout, featuring a rich and satisfying French dip that hits the spot. One suggestion: it’d be great if they served French fries — they’d pair perfectly with the amazing sandwich lineup.

Amazing and high quality ingredients and the stuffing is to die for. Very filling and large portion size. Wish I had Jetties where I live!!! It seems like they are very allergy friendly which may explain the reviews about longer wait times. We did not have to wait long at all though!

A nice little place tucked in a little shopping strip. There are self-serve ordering screens right as you enter if that’s what you prefer. I ordered the Still Dock sandwich and it was delicious. Order came out fast. There are a couple tables inside and it doesn’t feel cramped. There’s also a lot of table benches outside. That is where I ate because I had my dog with me.

My husband and I both ordered the 30 Acres Salad, and it was delicious.I would definitely order it again. Amada was delightful, polite and helpful. We will definitely be getting food from here again.

Exceptional sandwiches for a premium price. Very limited seating so you may behave trouble dining in during rush hours. Also serve a variety of desserts including baked goods and ice cream. Probably one of the best options in the neighborhood.

Best GF sandwich I have had thus far. I have severe gluten allergy, and trying to find a good tasting and accommodating sandwich is hard to find. I’ve been craving a sub for a while, and Jetties did not disappoint. So happy to have found a tasty place that is GF!

Stopped in here on a Saturday afternoon for lunch! At this location you are able to place your orders utilizing a kiosk and there three available! Restaurant is small on the inside BUT the food is amazing and there’s plenty of seating on the outdoor! I personally had the steak and cheese sandwich and it was delicious, while you wait for your food to be made, enjoy some hand serve ice cream! This establishment is a must visit and the service was great despite the demand of the customers that are pouring in for a delicious handmade sandwich, soup or salad!

A very nice array of gourmet sandwiches and salads -- I got the italian sub (named "quidnet"), with a nice hot pepper relish added; the salads looked good; the kids liked the mac & cheese and the chicken tenders -- and it's just around the corner from an excellent playground and splash pad. Of course this quality and location means that a nice summer day, the crowds are intense, and the waits are long. The fact that you order from a kiosk without any human contact probably keeps things moving quickly, but also makes the whole experience a little more alienating (and confusing if you are a newcomer. Now it's hard to complain that a place is so well-situated that it's too popular ("nobody goes there anymore, it's too crowded," said Yogi Berra or somebody like that). But it does mean that if you order your meal, wait 30 minutes to get it, then eat it, and then decide to get ice cream for dessert you have made a COLOSSAL mistake -- consigning yourself to the dystopian hell-line for an unnecessary second time. Probably worth it for the sandwiches, but skip the ice cream.

I've driven past here probably a hundred times headed to the hospital and finally decided to stop for a quick lunch. My husband and I were both starving after a busy morning, so we were happy to walk in and see there wasn't a line and it wasn't too busy yet. We checked out the menu and went to the counter to order. We both decided to get hot sandwiches - he got one that was basically like Thanksgiving in sandwich form and I got the Dreamland. We also ordered some potato chips. Both sandwiches were ready after a 5-7 minute wait and we were ready to dig in. At first, my husband said his was okay, but later after finishing the 2nd half, he said it was really good. Mine was okay - I did like the turkey and cheese, and thought I'd like the fig spread, but it was a little too sweet for me. I also should have gotten more fixings, like avocado and spinach or something. The size of both though was pretty good - ate half for lunch and the other as part of dinner. Overall, it was a convenient spot to check out near the hospital/university.

Jetties..... what can I say about this place that is deserving of their excellent quality. I work at enterprise and this is my hands down number one go to spot IN Georgetown. The sandwich quality is beyond top tier..... I wish I could have included a picture but I honestly ate it waaay to fast. This is my favorite spot worthy of kings and queens alike Jetties.... you have a customer and fan for life!

Sorry, not sorry, but this place is not it. Considered a loved local sandwich chain, Jetties boasts in having the 'best sandwiches in DC' - I was in the area, so I decided to go there during the lunch rush to grab a sandwich to go. I ordered: +the Nobadeer - a sandwich filled with roasted turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and mayo on a sourdough bread +made this a combo, so I got the Cape Cod chips and a canned soda The sandwich was just awful. The sourdough 'bread' was extremely stale and dry; not sure how this was even possible, as it was the lunch rush and you'd think that the items that are being turned out will be fresh? The 'roasted turkey' slices were dried out, and I was surprised that the description didn't say 'jerky' instead - these seemed to be not fresh or maybe not sealed well when placed in the fridge, as the edges of the 'meat' were hard and chewy. The stuffing was bland and a bit too mushy, and the cranberry with the mayo made the sandwich a little runny, which results in some parts of the bread becoming a bit too soggy (to the point it made holes in the parchment that was being used to wrap the sandwich). The prices for the sandwiches are on the steep end, but if the quality matched the cost, it would have been a different situation. If you order a combo, make sure you pick up the drink/chips on your own. You'll have to order via the 3 kiosks that are available, and then you just wait for your check number to be called. Items will be set on the counter. There are some seating inside as well as some tables for al fresco dining. There's limited restricted street parking available around the area. Really not sure where all these positive reviews are coming from, but seems a little sus. Probably one of the worst sandwiches I've had. No dice, Jetties. +stale, dried-out bread +old, dried-out deli meats +bland ingredients +limited restricted street parking available

Love this little place. Food is good and portions are generous. My only complaint would be the price but think it's worth it as a fun treat.

Amazing sandwich shop! Can't believe we just discovered this spot but Jetties is it. We stopped by this weekend and it's in a cute DC neighborhood near Nova. I got the polpis salad and my husband got the galley sandwich, both as is, but both so good! The flavors just compliment each other so well. My salad was so refreshing but not overly bitter with the veggie taste. We ate inside but there was plenty of outdoor seating as well. Very cute spot! Definitely will be back to check out more of their menu and they have ice cream/milkshakes as well.

I was at this place with few of my pickleball buddies. It was recommended by one of them as it's their usual sandwich place after a nice game of pickleball. It's a self serve type of restaurant. I ordered the Reuben sandwich with pickles. It was very delicious. Quantity is not much, but perfect for the price I paid. It was very juicy and the meat was very tender and flavorful. Since it's self serve place, there's not much to talk about their service. Ambiance is great. It's a combination of indoor and outdoor place. Nice outdoor patio was just perfect on a nice day. I ordered sorbet for the dessert. It was very good. Highly recommend their place if you're craving for nice sandwiches in the DC area.

Writing as the parent of a food allergic child. I have tried to contact them multiple times over the course of several months to get allergen information (both over the phone and via email) just to ask if a certain menu items contained an allergen. They never respond and don't seem interested in accommodating or including people with food allergies. A shame because we would have loved to eat here as a family but their silence doesn't make this restaurant feel safe for those with food allergies!

Jetties is such a good sandwich option. Can't go wrong truly. Their egg salad is great.

Have loved Jetties since my college years, but finally getting around to reviewing it. Their sandwiches are quite sizable! Definitely fills you up pretty good. The ambiance and setting of this location is pretty peaceful, even though there's a busy road next to it. Dog friendly, which we are always a fan of. My absolute favorite is the Nobadeer, essentially Thanksgiving in a sandwich. Has the perfect amount of turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce. The stuffing is basic, which is what I like anyway. Highly recommend this place for some good sandwiches!

I'm really not sure why Jetties is as popular as it is. I ate from a large office order from here, and got the Surfside sandwich as it was the most popular. The white bread of the sandwich is just unpleasant. It overwhelms the sandwich. It would be much better with ciabatta bread. The turkey was flavorless. The bacon and avocado could be tasted enough in the sandwich. The cookie was underwhelming, a 3 out of 10. I really wouldn't recommend Jetties at all.

Jetties has expanded, now there's 3 other locations in addition to this one. I'm not surprised! It gets crowded here almost as soon as it opens. Sammies are always fresh and well made. Tried one of the soups they've added. The New England clam chowder was below par, chewy. Due to its popularity, the wait has gotten to be longer than I like however it's still a reliable place to get a marvelous sammie.

No Stars! When you order online be prepared it will be very confusing. This man stopped my wife and kids and claimed that they stole their food. This could have been avoided if this location would have a better system for order pickups. Not going to get into race but this unfortunate situation between this man and my wife and kids could have gotten really ugly!

Ask someone in D.C. where the best sandwich is and you'll get different answers. If you ask someone in the deep Northwest of the city, they may say Jetties, a local sandwich and salad chain with several locations that has been around for 15+ years. After visiting the Foxhall location for a Saturday lunch, here's my experience: 1) Food: They have a large menu of sandwiches (classic and specialty), salads, sides, and dessert. For $13, I ordered the "Nobadeer" sandwich, which comes with turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and mayo on sourdough. The combo of sweet and savoy was magic to my taste buds. 2) Space: It's small with a mural-lined dining hall and outdoor seating. There are restrooms for customers. 3) Service: It's friendly and quick. I ordered my sandwich for pick up and it was ready within 15 minutes.

Very pleasantly surprised to stumble upon this sandwich shop on our walk along the Capital Crescent Trail. Sandwich was very fresh and the side of potatoes with cheese and bacon was very tasty. Highly recommend for anyone walking through Georgetown or along the Capital Crescent Trail.

This place really hits the spot when it comes to sandwich cravings. Some of my favorites: nobadeer (with caramelized onions), still dock, Tom nevers, tuckernuck salad, and more to come. Everything I've tried it's excellent and so delicious! Sadly not every time my sandwich is executed consistently. Sometimes the bread is a little thicker/thinner or the breaded chicken was burnt on occasion. Overall I would 1000% order from here again. The prices are definitely good for the portion size as well. I love jetties so much I'll overlook my gluten and lactose intolerance because I'll be happy today (and suffer tomorrow).

I ordered the Clark's Cove and WOW what a sandwich! I think this was by far my favorite take on the classic turkey and cheese sandwich. The coleslaw was perfect and the cheese was rich and creamy. Love Jetties!

FYI: I'm not reviewing Jettie's. I'm reviewing the Nobadeer sandwich at Jettie's. This is the only sandwich I ever get and, quite possibly, the best sandwich in DC. Even if you don't typically enjoy stuffing/dressing at Thanksgiving or even the cranberry sauce, you will love the Nobadeer. Something about its proportions, from the turkey to the mayo to the stuffing/dressing to the cranberry sauce to the bread, make it sheer perfection. I don't even like traditional Thanksgiving food, but I probably eat this sandwich at LEAST once a month, all year long. During pandemic times when I worked from home (and a couple blocks away from a Jettie's location) the Nobadeer was a regular treat. I've tried other Jettie's sandwiches, attempting to determine if all of their sandwiches are just as good. But nothing tops the Nobadeer. Get it. It will fill your tummy and your heart.

Jetties never disappoints! We order lunch from them fairly often. My favorites are the Cisco and the Nobadeer. I love that you can make any topping adjustments on their online platform. The Cisco is a warm ham and cheese loaded with ham and topped with carmelized onions and Dijon mustard - phenomenal. I also love the Nobadeer which is Thanksgiving in a sandwich with roast turkey, stuffing and cranberry. My coworker loves their steak and cheese sandwich.

Food and service was poor this 4th of July. Particularly from the young lady that served our shakes and ice cream. Non communicative, disregarded questions or requests, and we generally felt unwelcome. We will not be returning here or Jetties elsewhere. You can keep it. Thanks!

Food was good but the short brunette at the register has a nasty attitude. Cute little shop

Always a great place. You can customize your sandwich or salad and they have a nice kid's menu. You fill out a form so u get exactly what u want. The sandwiches/ salads are made while u wait. The have many unique sandwiches or make your own. The clam chowder is the best !

I don't often leave yelp reviews, in fact I believe this is my first. That is how motivated I am to leave this message...the jetties Nobadeer is the greatest sandwich I have ever had in my entire life. The Turkey is lean, the cranberry is mixed with the mayo perfectly, the stuffing adds incredible flavor and texture. I could eat this sandwich every single day. It is simply the best sandwich i personally have ever eaten.

We had a work catering lunch from Jetties, and wow is all I can say. The packaged lunch were nice packed, with enough food inside to tame all our hunger. I got the Nobadeer sandwich going in with low expectations that it was going to be "another" turkey sandwich or something similar to the gobbler that they sell Wawa which is garbage! The Nobadeer sandwich was amazing. The turkey was flavorful, moist, and delicious with the right amount of stuffing and cranberry sauce. I definitely will be back and I think I found a new spot I'll be going to every time I'm coming to the office in MD.!!!!

Solid, local and quaint sandwich shop, that also has a menu of salads and ice cream. They have a handful of both cold and hot sandwiches with the option to create your own too. The toppings and ore-suggested sandwiches aren't anything too innovative, but you can get a solid sandwich at a reasonable price for some very friendly people here!

I need you to know that I dream of the Nobadeer. I come up with reasons to be near Jetties just so I can grab this sandwich. A more perfect bite has never existed. My favorite thing to do is to eat a Nobadeer while eating outside at the picnic tables!

Always delicious sandwiches. Fresh ingredients. So good. Definite go to for fab sandwiches. The whole dill pickles are fantastic also!!

Going back to this old system of checking boxes won't work for me personally. Not only confusion Amongst who arrived 1st or who just didn't want to use the markers. Not very sanitary, I'll pass.

I ordered online. The site is slow, unintuitive, and buggy. When I was eventually able to order, the site said my order was ready more than 10 minutes before it was actually finished. So I waited. So, um... what was the point of ordering online?

I was driving through Foxhall, hungry, craving a good sandwich, and low and behold I was right in front of Jetties. Talk about good timing. I think I've avoided Jetties for years thinking that it's just another boring and overpriced sandwich shop but I'm glad I finally gave this place a chance because my sandwich was delicious. Nothing fancy or exotic here, just top quality meats and cheeses and some yummy speciality combos. As an avowed mayo hater, I was happy to see plenty of options without the vile white goop from hell. I loved the outdoor bench seating which had a "summer in New England" vibe to it. They also serve ice cream by the scoop from Ice Cream Jubilee which is a terrific local ice cream brand.

Had "easton street" salad today. Really huge and fresh and delicious.

Really really good. I don't remember the name of it but I had the pesto chicken sandwich, delicious

I was pretty excited to FINALLY try this place. I ordered the surf-side sandwich. I really wish I would've read the menu properly. I assumed a Turkey sandwich would come with some of the basics like (lettuce, onion and tomato) - not just meat, cheese and bread. Also, would be nice if the bread was toasted. I will try this place again, just be more in-tune with what I order.

I've been to Jetties a handful of times, however not recently. I called in an order for a turkey club sandwich with very light mayo. I picked up my order and took my first bite. Lots of mayo, little to no bacon, no real avocado (it was a spread) and the turkey was warm. The website made no mention of the sandwich being warm, but in 95 degree weather, I'd prefer my turkey chilled. At $17 for a basic sandwich and chips, it's hard to justify. I had a super simple request and it wasn't honored

TLDR: gourmet sandwiches that taste great but take a hit on the wallet. I'll be honest I'm not that big a fan of sandwiches in general so wasn't expecting much from Jetties. I came here on the constant recommendation from friends for lunch on a Monday. My friend and I both got the surfside sandwich. Price: definitely on the expensive side. At nearly $16 for a sandwich + drink, this is going to be a limiting factor for most people. Menu: they had a nice selection of hot and cold sandwiches, as well as a build your own option. Cool variety. The menu is listed on top but you order via the paper menus on the table right at the door. Location: located in a small knoll in foxhall off the main road, this is probably one of the few restaurants in walking distance in Foxhall near Georgetown. Going up foxhall, you can find some more sit down restaurants.

I ended up ordering this place for lunch with some coworkers. I wasn't really thrilled about getting a sandwich but their sandwiches were AMAZING. I ordered the Summer House sandwich (vegetarian), which was so scrumptious! I truly enjoyed the multi grain bread as well as the basil mayo! I also ordered a heath cookie, which despite being a little old tasted very good. I would highly recommend this place for takeout on a hot summer day or during the winter :-)

My favorite sandwiches in DC! I cannot get enough of the still dock. I just wish it was on the late night menu

Overpriced, disgusting, trash establishment with the worst service. The employees are all incompetent and horrible with exception to just one, I do feel badly for him. This place receives nice reviews and survives off rich white patrons from the palisades who have vineyard NW goggles on. Even if you are the same time, your money, time and health are served better literally anywhere else. Would also not be surprised if they have a few health code violations pop up given what I saw last time there. But again, do yourself a favor and stay away.

This place is incredible! I've been coming here 10+ years and feel guilty I'm just now reviewing. The Nobadeer tastes just like Thanksgiving. The hot sandwiches are definitely worth the wait! This place is also great for team lunches (if those things ever happen again). And picnic tables are perfect for outdoor dining. Place is very sanitary/COVID compliant. And my milkshake was delightful.

A special treat! Gourmet sandwiches with premium ingredients and hand scooped ice cream - it feels like summer vacation by the beach. I ordered the seasonal summer sandwich - heirloom tomato, pepper jack cheese, sprouts, and avocado on multigrain bread with basil mayo, plus the Maine blueberry ice cream. My husband ordered the lobster roll and a chocolate milk shake. If this was closer to my office I would be here for lunch several times a week, but it is worth a special trip for. Food 5, Service 4, Ambiance 4

Best sandwich shop. It would be nice if they bump the heat up. It was so cold inside.

Food is always great and the staff has been there for awhile. The woman who works at the register during lunch can be a bit rude, sadly. I thought it may have been a bad day, but it has now happened about three times/every time we have been back. Eye rolls and heavy sighs seem out of place in this family friendly and neighborhood friendly place.

We're new to the neighborhood and really wanted to like this place. I bought my kids ice cream. The ice cream was not packed into the cone and it almost immediately fell off, in the store, after I paid. I tell the woman behind the counter, and apologize for the mess. She cleans it up. We wait for her to come back and ask her to make a second. She does. Hands it off, and then charges me for the second ice cream. That's fine, but we definitely will not be back.

Yoooo I gotta say it. The Nobadeer is going to make my thanksgivings mediocre because it's top tier. It's like perfect amounts of all layers and I never forget the heath cookie. I would love to try other sandwiches but I cant bring myself to.

Pros: Fresh food, can see the serving table, food made everytime--no reheating; the seasonal chicken parmesan sandwich is tasty with bread substitution for sourdough, homemade cookies are delicious, menu has varieties of soup, sandwiches- hot and cold, salads, and desserts. Cons: None Great place for everyone to eat. First time and will be returning. The street parking doesn't bother me. Be sure to get there early because they close early.

Wait time was 25 minutes longer than pickup time estimated. Both sandwiches I ordered were wrong. Simple instructions such as no tomato and no cheese we're not followed. Ordering system on their website is dated and overcharges for ingredients because of this. Heirloom tomatoes not an option online when they have them available in the deli. Some specialty sandwiches not available with online order when showing on menu for all locations and available in store. If I have to wait 40 minutes for a sandwich shouldn't the online system at least run efficiently? Original cape cod chips not listed online when available in store. Had to wait in line to pay credit for a $3.03 bag of chips (do not take cash). Staff seems overworked and overwhelmed.

Great sandwich - had the thanksgiving turkey sandwich and was very pleased with it. I also had the Maryland crab soup (which I always forget is a red soup not the creamy soup) and despite not really loving a red soup, this was actually very tasty. The only reason I wouldn't give this five stars is the prices are sky high and there's something like a 10-15 minute wait for hot sandwiches. When we asked about that, he said there were 3-4 people before us so absolutely there would be at least that wait. I would have thought they had more capacity for warm sandwiches, but we were in a rush so just took the cold sandwich.

Come at lunchtime, if you want to eat dinner. Not about lack of staff but common sense. 15 mins and counting between some of our party's (3 people) sandwiches arriving.

Gourmet sandwiches that taste great. Everything we ordered was delicious! Very very creative menu..loved their take on the turkey club and the thanksgiving "leftover" sandwich. The only down side here is that it as bit on the pricy side, either way I would 100% go here again. Just not every day.

First timer, ordered a Turkey sandwich with all the trimmings. Sandwich was good, outdoor seating was great considering the weather. Service was good but I notice several employees not wearing face masks which is concerning but my wife and I are vaccinated so we ate anyway. Overall good experience but I feel the employees at least should be wearing masks. Note everyone was wearing gloves so at least that is a good sign.
