Firehouse Subs

Best subs in this area. I ordered 3 subs and they were not stingy with the meat and they prepared it just the way we asked for it. The owner greeted everyone and thanked us for coming and I will be buying my subs from this place from now on.

Standard firehouse sub shop. They’re usually friendly and fast. The dining area is maintained unless you go there during lunch hours of course. Go here if you want a fast fatty sandwich. The price per sub is on the higher end for what it is but they do offer more meat, so probably same price point value comparing to other sub shops

Can never go wrong here — excellent service and sandwiches. Personal favorite is the engineer loaded with hot sauce, although the bbq is wonderful as well

Great service and food. I like the lite sandwiches. I also like to crazy coke machine with 140 flavors, but the line can back up when they are busy.

I’m down with Firehouse. Probably my fav sub in the alpharetta/​cumming area. I love the brisket sub and love the bbq grilled chicken. Also don’t forget the Cherry Limeade!!!

The food server crews did not observed proper food handling technique (no hair nets, wiping sweat with shirts and the food prep stalls are well hidden). We got served with a 1 long strand of blonde hair (no denying its them coz we have black hair) in our sandwich. We requested for a quick replacement and got it quickly. The problem now was after we got home, we all got sick (maybe they did something to the replacement subs). The Buford branch is better because its wide open and more spacious.

Came here the other day for quick dinner with the boyfriend before groceries. I ordered the firehouse grilled chicken salad and Eddie ordered a sub. The service was great but the food was just «meh». Everything was lacking flavor and the chicken in my salad looked like it. Came out of a can.
They do have a great selection of hot sauces for use/​purchase and I did get to discover my new favorite spicy BBQ sauce. We bought a bottle for five bucks. It made the sub par meal worth while.

The Hawaiin Pork Sandwich and the Italian Meatball sub are the best in the area. I wish it wasn’t so close and so good, it’s affecting my diet ;)
Now why 4 stars not 5? There are two reasons for this:
1. Facilities are a little dirty, almost every time I go there the tables have crumbs and food droppings not to mention the floor could use a little cleaning. I overlook this though because the subs are freaking good.
2. The chips they offer as a side aren’t that great. If they had a better brand such as the dirty potato brand that publix carries, I’d give them another half star.
Despite those issues this is the best sub/​sandwich place in the area. For the neat freaks I recommend ordering it to go!

I LOVE, love, love their sandwiches BUT…
The restaurant is ALWAYS dirty… so dirty I can’t bring myself to eat there and just take it home. I’m surprised to see other reviews that say the opposite. I order from here about once a month and I’ve never seen it clean.
It’s also a little pricey for the size sub you get
Yet I keep going back because it is oh soooooooo yummy and I can’t resist

Very yummy subs. Need lots of napkins to eat the large sub. Clean place and friendly service too.

After working hard helping my dad rebuild his deck, we were pretty hungry so I stopped by Firehouse Subs and placed a to go order. The woman at the front was pretty much intolerable she kept barking at me because I was not an expert on ordering Firehouse Subs (I ordered 4 total so I was trying to keep everyone’s order straight). Although, I must say the guys working the sandwich line were very friendly. I get home open my sandwich and to my amazement my order was wrong. I usually get the Steak & Cheese with ONLY steak & cheese… I attribute the error to the woman who would not let me get a word in edge wise because she was too busy asking me whether I wanted white or wheat. Now don’t get me wrong I work in Customer Service so I know how it is to have a bad day with everyone watching but keep it professional.
Anyway, I bet you’re on the edge of your seats wondering after having a bad experience why I would give this place 4 stars. Don’t worry, you’re about to find out! The restaurant was impeccably clean I’m talking not even the slightest shred of lettuce littering the floor or tables. Reason 2: my sandwiches were made, with the exception of mine, to the accurate specifications outlined in my order. Reason 3: Even after picking off all the mushrooms, green peppers & onions on my sandwich it was still exceptionally good! So that my Unilocaler friends is why I will go back.
On a side note, I noticed they have the ingredients to make your own Cherry Limeade now somebody tell me that doesn’t sound delish!

I’ve eaten at several of these chain sammich shops around the city and have generally had good experiences. Today, we went to this one which is practically in our back yard. Ann got the Club on wheat and I got the Engineer (after all, I AM a Tech grad) on wheat. There are several things I really like about these places: 1) The sandwiches are very juicy and well-​made, 2) They have a choice of like 40 hot sauce types laid out to fire up that olé sammich (I like habanero/​mango), and 3) They have a cherry drink on tap that you squeeze fresh limes into and make a very tasty libation. Service was prompt, and the waitstaff was attentive to follow up. On a non-​food note, they have 7 gallon empty pickle buckets, with handles, that they sell for $ 2.00, which make great carwash and garden buckets. We’ll be back to this one!
