Description

Firehouse Subs offers flavorful, fresh sandwiches with exceptional meatball and brisket options praised for their quality. Many appreciate the friendly staff and attentive service, with the owner often checking on guests to ensure satisfaction. Portion sizes are reasonable but sometimes considered small relative to price, suggesting a slight price adjustment could improve value perception. Promotions like daily free sub draws add appeal. However, service inconsistency, order delays, and occasional mix-ups have frustrated customers, with some experiencing rude behavior and poor packaging. Despite these hiccups, Firehouse remains a worthwhile visit for those seeking a tasty, satisfying sub experience.

The family truly enjoyed our subs. I got corn beef brisket. Wife got meatball and son got steak and cheese. All three superior in every way. Excellent job to the workers. Recommend to all my friends and family. Little far but worth it. Charlie

The sandwich tasted great. It was packed with everything I asked for as well. Not badly priced but the size compared to other places makes it hard to know what's worth the price but Firehouse still has great tasting subs, just maybe two dollar decreasewould be more appealing.

The food is quite delicious for a chain restaurant and definitely beats Subway and DiBella's in the area. The portion sizes are reasonable, though nothing extraordinary for the price. The quality of the ingredients was good, and everything seemed fresh. Overall, I would consider eating here again in the future. By the way, they have a neat promotion on their website: if your name is chosen as the daily pick, you can get a free sub, so be sure to check that out!

I had one of the best meatball subs, and the service was both fast and excellent! I also loved the pickle option! I give it 5 stars! This was my first visit, as a friend recommended it to me, and he was right!

I’m really disappointed to have to write this because I used to love the subs here. The girl who took our order assured me that the cheesesteak sub didn’t have any sauce on it. After a while of waiting, I checked and found out that it actually did have sauce. I returned it and pointed out the discrepancy, and she responded that she didn’t say there was no mustard, just no sauce. I could chalk it up to a misunderstanding, but her attitude was unpleasant. She quickly remade my sub, but I’m not sure what she did because it came back soggy and still had a mustard flavor. Not wanting to complain a second time, I tried to eat it, but it was so mushy that I couldn't even pick it up without getting my hands messy. It was really unappetizing. I regret not watching her remake it since I had walked away to my car due to her uncomfortable attitude. I hate receiving rude service and not being able to enjoy my food. It’s frustrating that one of the few places I used to consider a special treat is now completely ruined for me.
