Over the years I've visited several Firehouse Subs and during my visits they're rarely busy during…read morelunch. The location in Bartow is the one exception. During the week I stopped in twice during various times and each time they were busy. At this location the food is good but the service seemed a bit slow. The owner/manager is eager to take your money but between ordering and serving there is a breakdown. I'm not sure if new employees were on the line working, but my 4" Hook and Ladder shouldn't take 20 minutes to make. Although I was a bit disappointed, as you can see, I went back a second time. Even though it gets a bit loud inside , it's still a good sub.

Not much except sandwiches, and not a huge variety of those, but very good, inexpensive, and quick. I had a reuben, very wide although not particularly high, but very good.

Now the ambiance, it's a cute little shop with a nice out patio that is cool and clean, making it perfect for a casual and relaxing lunch. Bonus points for having a drive thru!

It was a Sunday and this place was hopping! We were greeted and sat immediately. When you walk in, you see a little gift shop and a bakery display. The decor is wooden, cute, whimsical, and slightly boho. Our server was super sweet and soft spoken - she took our order and our food was ready fairly quickly. The food is delicious!! We started with their soup of the day - a spiced carrot ginger. Yummy - it felt like a warm hug! We got a veggie burger and the turkey pesto. Both were super tasty and made with love. The BEST part... they make their own breads and they offer a GLUTEN FREE rice loaf!!! It is so yummy that we bought a frozen loaf to take home. Thankfully we had a cooler with us and were able to do so. We loved our lunch so much that we decided to stop again on our way home four days later! The middle of the week in Arcadia is a lot more quiet, and our second visit was just as delicious as the first. This time, we had the veggie soup and the same two sandwiches (because they were that good!). We had the veggie burger on GF bread this time so we could share half of each sandwich. They have an interesting story of origin (see their story on the menu paper), and the folks are super sweet and warm people. We are already sad we live two hours away, but look forward to returning for more delicious food!

The whole experience was not. This was a refreshing experience. They have been open for a short time and this was my first opportunity to stop in. The store was clean, employees were friendly and helpful, and the food was excellent. I walked in around lunchtime and was directed to the back of the store where the line started for ordering. They have a big menu board which I read first to determine what to get. The Cubano sounded good so I decided to give it a try. There were two choices for bread where they started the sandwich and put it in the oven. I was directed to the next station for all the toppings. I had a moment and chatted with the two employees that were there, and the one at the register asked what I got and if I would be having a drink or anything else. I told them I would take a meal which consisted of the sandwich, a drink and chips. On my sandwich came out they asked how I wanted it and directed me to assign that showed all the topics available. I opted for mustard and added hot peppers. I was very impressed with the taste of the sandwich and the hot peppers added a nice touch that you don't normally get on a Cuban. I will definitely be trying this one again in the future. They have several tables to dine at and there are accessible spaces out front. They have a drink station where you would get your own drink. If you're looking for a good hot sandwich, this is a great choice to have in this shopping area.

Next time maybe the Mac & Cheese and cauliflower.

In all fairness, it had just opened for lunch so I don't know how it usually is when it's super busy. This was a dine-in experience. The graffiti art décor keeps it cool & casual. The ordering process is easier than other fast-casual restaurants that rely on a number placed at the table. Here, you're given a buzzer. I didn't have to wait too long for the shake. It was received right after the order was placed. I love the top loaded cereal ones! You get your choice of a vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry. I chose vanilla with fruity pebbles. Loved it! The hot chicken bites were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It's a very generous portion. These are bigger than bites. The medium spice wasn't spicy to me, and I don't have a high tolerance to heat. I don't know if it was toned down, or if they actually gave me mild. Either way, it was still very tasty. I'll order hot next time just for comparison. The crinkle-cut fries are automatically seasoned by default. I didn't realize it at the time, but there is an option to get them unseasoned. The meal comes with a slice of bread, pickles, and Dave's sauce for dipping. I'd get the same thing again, only I would split it with someone. I'm not sure if there's an option for a 5 bite meal. The price of the meal was high due to the addition of the shake, but the chicken portion makes up for that. Honestly though, the halal chicken price is pretty much on par with other restaurants that serve it with this designation. There will be more visits in the future. I'm looking forward to trying the sandwich next time.
