Firehouse Subs

Not sure how the food is yet but the employees are defiantly here for a paycheck and not to serve. Two male workers behind the counter and a young girl doing all the cleaning while the boys stand there.
The boy in a black shirt then starts showing his cell phone to all the other co workers as he waits impatiently for some girl that «he don’t care about but does and she likes him but wants to see other people.» Etc…
As they are making my sandwiches no doubt but only because they have to another car pulls up. The man with his cell phone states «if they come in and order 7 sandwiches I swear to god I’m going to be so pissed.»
Not super surprised with the service given the appearance of the staff. Food was mediocre nothing super special. Haven’t missed it since last time most likely won’t miss it again.

We come here semi often as my wife really likes their sandwiches. Our last visit was pretty disappointing though, and I am not sure we’ll be back. The four employees sitting around on a very empty Saturday night seemed very uninterested in working. The floors and tables were absolutely disgusting. The employees rather than clean sat eating or playing with the TV. I remember when this place opened and the owner was around it was spotless and the quality of food was much higher.

Good quality and delicious sandwiches. They are not shy about putting a lot of meat. The 8 inch is so filling already. Ive tried almost everything in their menu and I found all sandwiches to be very good. Try their hit sauce located at the sauce rack. Yummy.

I love me some firehouse subs, everything about this place is great from the minute you walk in and are nicely greeted to the timely manner you get your amazing sub, I wish I could venture more into the menu but I’m a ham and cheese kind of gal. I did try some of their baked goods and now I wish I hadn’t I may just stop in for a brownie or a lemon cooler cookie, so good!!!

The management is awesome, the employees were fun and friendly. The store is clean. The bathrooms spotless. Our food was fast to the table and delicious. Very happy with my experience.

I’ve visited twice and I’ve been very impressed both times, today I had the pleasure of the business owner (Jennifer McCune) fix our order, apparently I had cheese missing on my sub; wasn’t a big deal to me, but she made sure to fix it as soon as she noticed the error and apologized… I love the atmosphere and especially owners who go out of their way to please their customers. Thank you! A great review well deserved.

The brisket is absolutly awesome! I love this place and make the trip anytime I am in Sandy.

I liked looking at all the hot sauces they have and sampling them. Didn’t find one I really liked, but was amusing. I had the meatball sub. Meatballs were pretty juicy. I like how it has its own theme (firestation theme). But that was about all that was memorable.

For my very first time I couldn’t have been more disappointed. I used the online ordering which was a catastrophe. I asked to split the check and she just swiped for the whole order and said she didn’t know how to split checks. I asked if there was anyway to reverse it and I was told no, sorry and to try ordering separate next time. We paid waited fifteen minutes all to find out the order was ready before we even showed up. Needless to say, by the time we got back to the office our sandwiches were more then soggy. We didn’t receive pickles with any order and one sand which was made completely wrong.
The greatest part was the argument between the staff when the error was made with not giving us our order that had been ready for some time. Completely unprofessional atmosphere and very disappointing after much anticipation for a great experience.

Firehouse is a great place for a nice sit down sub shop. The food is delicious and I love the customize your own drink fountain the heave there… although I have to dump 3 – 4 of my concoctions before I find one that I like. The only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars was because the food sometimes does take a long time to get to you.

I like this place a lot. I like the décor and the overall atmosphere. I really really like the turkey bacon ranch sandwich as it has lots of flavor and they pile on the turkey and bacon. They will give you a pickle spear on the side which I like. I also really like to get a drink here because they have the big red coca cola machine where you can spend several minutes trying to decide what flavor of soda you want. The one thing I don’t like about this location is the people that work there. It seems like they’re always in a bad mood and are very short with the customers. Oh well, the food is really good.

If you want one amazing sub you can’t go wrong here!!! I love their Turkey Bacon Ranch on wheat bread.
This location is so awesome. The people are so so friendly it’s always a fun time. I always round up to the nearest dollar when I pay so I can donate to the first responders.

When it comes to subs, this place is one of my favorites. The turkey bacon ranch is my go to sub. And knowing that every lunch I eat helps first responders makes this a no brainer for a quick lunch spot. Yum!

Wow, the deliciousness far exceeded my expectations! I had the brisket with cheese, upon my friend’s recommendation.
Tons of hot sauces available. They are not specific to Firehouse though. Luckily there is a number system sticker that serves as your warning on each bottle. The hottest ones are kept behind the counter and available upon request.
There was a cool donation receptacle for giving to the firemen and fire safety. Definitely donated!
They have the coke fusion machine too with over 100 combinations!

Good sub, good service, indoor/​outdoor seating and its nice to see the owners are always there managing their business.
I have had the Hook & Ladder and the New York Steamer, both were very good, I like the cherry lime aid.

I love the atmosphere. The customer service was great! The wall decorations are really interesting to look at.
I got the #2, and it was delicious. A little greasy, but it’s hard not to be when meatballs are involved. Overall, delicious and yummy!

OMG. The Italian (Hubs ordered) is freaking delicious. The meat was juicy and warm. Fresh sliced? The bread, fluffy yet crisp and toasted. The seasonings were perfect. the cleanliness was outstanding… the servers so nice.
Utah should be labeled the nicest place on earth.
I don’t like sandwiches. I’m just not a fan. I am a fan of this place. Wow. Color me impressed.
Please expand to CA. pretty please?

My new favorite sandwich place. It just tasted fresher than your traditional Subway or Quiznos sandwiches. It’s very similar to Jimmy John’s except a bit slower, and maybe that extra time had something to do with why it tasted so much better!
The firehouse theme is pretty fun and several kids were giggling and commenting on the fire hydrant and other themed décor. It wasn’t particularly busy when we arrived on a Friday night around 8pm, but I’ve driven by several times during the day and it always seems to be busy (a good sign that they sell quality food!).
They also didn’t yell very loudly as some other reviewers complained about, but perhaps it was because it was near the end of the night and they weren’t as «gusto» about their work (understandably). And for those people that complain about them yelling, many other restaurants (Jimmy John’s, Café Rio) do similar annoying things. I suppose it’s supposed to add to the «fun» atmosphere and maybe that’s a good thing for serious business meetings.
I started at the top of the menu and ordered a #1 in a combo, the Hook and Ladder sub, which is Smoked turkey breast, Virginia honey ham, and melted Monterey Jack served on a wheat 8-​inch sub. Wow. That was one of the best subs I’ve ever had. They have a table full of available sauces to add to your sandwich, but I’m not sure why you would want to change the flavors at all.
The only cons — I wish they had more locations!

Tried this new sub shop in Sandy on a whim! None of our party of four had been in yet, so we thought we’d belly up and try a Firehouse sub. We were all very pleased we did!
This is a well-​thought-​out theme for a sub shop. Very well put together in keeping with the firehouse motif, they have dalmation spotted tables, and hot sauce they sell in the shape of a fire hydrant. So cute!
Speaking of hot sauce — it’s a true passion of mine — I had to check out their hot sauce «bar» — it’s not really a bar, more like an area. But it’s impressive, and I’m sorry I didn’t snap a separate photo of it to include. They have at least 36 – 45 different hot sauce choices, from fruity blends to Dave’s Insanity and the like. Their own firehouse hot sauce is more like a spicy BBQ, but still very good.
We ordered the Hook & Ladder, the Steak and Cheese, a turkey-​swiss combo, and the NY Steamer (brisket/​pastrami combo). The only semi-​disappointment was the Steak and Cheese. And for no other reason than the grilled onions and peppers depicted on the sign were barely detectable. But all were delicious, nonetheless. I particularly enjoyed my Hook & Ladder; smoked turkey, honey ham, and melted jack, served hot and «Fully Involved.» Really nice compatible flavors going on there. So tasty!
AND — drum roll — they offer white or wheat bread options. C’mon…that’s awesome.
At Firehouse, the term fully involved is worthy of a small tee-​hee, and means «with everything.» Most subs, hot or cold, come loaded with mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomato, onion, and a dill pickle spear on the side. None of us actually received the pickle spear, but then again, none of us like dill pickles, so we weren’t disappointed.
They have a great selection of subs in 8″ or 12″ sizes, and we had a hard time deciding with which to pop our Firehouse cherries. Hubby now wants to go back to try something other than the Steak and Cheese; and I don’t blame him. The rest were better.
Although there are no hot firemen working here as I had hoped (was that out loud?), we’ll be back soon for another dip in the Firehouse pool. Ahhhhh, refreshing.

Bottom line: Really good hot subs, price is decent unless you upgrade.
I like the theme of Firehouse Subs… the names of the sandwiches are cool, and they are really quite tasty.
The fault for me is the price of the meal… by the time you upgrade to a 12″ sub, make it a combo, you are over $ 10. And maybe the prices are similar to other sub shops, but while I really like the quality and care that coes into these subs, I think they just give you less for your money.
Atmosphere is nice, they scream out «welcome to firehouse» when you walk in, and the staff is very friendly.
If you are not that hungry, and you just want a good sub (regular size) the price is right.
I had a BBQ Brisket with Cheddar, and it was really good. the bread is fresh, and the meat is very tender, and I did not see them nicrowaving the meat like some other sub shops.
I will be back to Firehouse again, but depending on the day, and my pocketbook, the next visit will be a harder choice when you can go to Subway and get a $ 5 footlong any day of the week.
$ 23 bucks for me and my kid is just too steep for my blood to do on a regular basis.
I really wish Unilocal would let me give a 3.5 here.
Until next time we eat…
