Jimmy John’s Club Lulu – Ingredients, Calories, Price & Is It Worth It? (2025 Guide)

In 2026, where diners demand both speed and substance, the Club Lulu® remains a top-tier “Favorite.” While the #4 Turkey Tom is our entry-level turkey sub, the #16 Lulu is its sophisticated older sibling—adding crispy bacon to the mix for a savory profile that defines the American club sandwich.

We consider the Club Lulu the “Goldilocks” of the menu: it’s heartier than an Original but lighter than the massive Gargantuan.

The Anatomy of the Lulu (2026 Ingredients)

The magic of the #16 lies in the contrast between our chilled, hand-sliced turkey and the warm, salty notes of the bacon.

• The Protein: Hand-sliced Turkey Breast and Applewood Smoked Bacon.
• The Cream: Hellmann’s® Real Mayo.
• The Freshness: Fresh-sliced Lettuce and vine-ripened Tomatoes.
• The Vessel: Choice of fresh-baked French bread, 9-Grain Wheat, or the Unwich® lettuce wrap.

2026 Toasted Update: In 2026, the Toasted Club Lulu has become a fan favorite. By running the #16 through our high-speed toasters, the bacon becomes extra crispy and the turkey flavors are intensified.

The 2026 “Pro” Customization Hacks

To get the most out of your #16 in 2026, try these “insider” modifications:

1. The “Lulu Beach” Hybrid: Add Avocado Spread. This combines the best parts of the #12 Beach Club with the bacon from the #16. In 2026, this is one of the most requested “secret menu” items.
2. The Zesty Kick: Add Jimmy Peppers® and Onions. The vinegary heat of the peppers cuts through the richness of the mayo and bacon perfectly.
3. The “LBI” (Leave Bread In): Since the Lulu is a “Favorite” with extra meat, asking for “LBI” ensures the bread can support the weight of the double-protein build without falling apart.
4. The “Kickin’ Lulu”: Swap the standard mayo for a side of Kickin’ Ranch®. It turns the sandwich into a spicy, creamy masterpiece.

Why the Jimmy John’s Club Lulu Wins in 2026

• Protein Efficiency: With over 30g of protein in a regular sub, it’s a favorite for the 2026 fitness community.
• Texture Balance: It’s one of the few sandwiches where the “crunch” factor is consistent from the first bite to the last, thanks to the bacon and fresh lettuce.
• $1 Combo Eligible: Through March 2026, you can make your Club Lulu a combo (Chips + Drink) for just $1.00 extra.
