Firehouse subs

Anybody ever been to one? I've heard they're pretty good but I've only ever seen a couple and I haven't been to them. There's one opening up on Wards next to New Life book store. Seems kinda like a crazy time to be opening a restaurant. Especially a few doors down from where Quizno's went out of business.

We had them in Florida and I loved it.... Believe it or not I helped get them to come here, I went to the one in Roanoke and called and helped them get the property... They are putting on in on Timberlake too

Not bad at all. Then again, there seem to be a plethora of quality sub options these days.

Excellent subs. Much better than Subway or Quiznos.

How does it compare to Jersey Mike's?

Different style but similar price and quality.

They are completely different types of subs. I'd say they are both top notch in their own respect. Jersey Mike's is much more minimalistic in what they offer.

NY Steamer Sub
Corned Beef Brisket and Pastrami, made famous by the Delicatessens of New York served hot with Provolone, Mayo, Mustard and Italian Dressing
Now that is what I'm freaking talking about. You cannot get a decent hot pastrami sandwich in this town. I will be awaiting their grand opening.

Wow...

Just...

Wow...

The name is terrible and unappetizing... yet I STILL want to eat that sub. Badly. I am going to die thanks to that thing.

Jimmy John's is good too, especially if you are close enough for them to deliver.

I tried this the other day... and it's amazing. One of the best subs I've had from a chain restaurant.

Just finished eatng that very sub. It was phenomenal. However it was way too small for how much it was. That was pretty disappointing

It's all yours. Nobody else has male genitals on the forefront of their mind but you fumbles.
