Papa Johns and Jimmy Johns Join Gratiot Corridor

Clinton Township's Gratiot corridor also welcomed two new eateries this past month with the addition of Papa John's Pizza and Jimmy John's Gourmet Sandwiches to Northpointe Plaza on the corner of Gratiot and Metropolitan Parkway.

While the Jimmy John's at 37119 Gratiot Ave. brings the number of "freaky fast" outlets in Clinton Township to three, the Papa John's store at 37115 Gratiot Ave. marks this brand's local comeback.

Clinton Township was previously home to a Papa John's at 41660 Garfield Rd., but when that location closed approximately two years ago, fans were left to travel to Eastpointe for their Papa's fix.
