    I placed an order for online pickup through uber eats... when I arrived at the facility I wasn't greeted by anyone on staff and there seemed to be some tension... I showed my order number to the cashier and she began to assemble my order... after eating and allowing my food to settle,,, I went to the gym... during an intense workout session,,, I felt a shortness of breath/ dizziness/ weakness in my extremities and began vomiting... at first,,, I just thought that I had overworked myself... but as time went on my symptoms were consistent with food poisoning and the last thing I ate was an Italian sub from firehouse... currently I'm on day two of suffering from the food poisoning symptoms and I haven't been able to keep down anything/ weakness in my muscles/ unable to sleep/ constant pain/ fatigue headaches and urinating to trying to keep myself hydrated... I will never be going back to this place again... the staff seemed rude (all of which were Hispanic) and I believe I was purposely poisoned... I honestly hope this facility gets shut down

    Different sizes of the sandwiches

    Today was my first time here. It was easy to find. Parking was a bit crazy but im not surprised in this shopping center with Starbucks:). Staff was friendly, the place was clean, tables was not too close together so that was nice. My sandwich was BOMB! Soft, warm, flavorful, I will definitely get the Club on a Sub again!!

    After looking at the "Build Your Own Sub" menu, I chose the roast beef sub. In the picture, the meat was pink and thinly sliced, just how I like it! I was disappointed that the roast beef tasted and looked like a basic stew meat. it was in small pieces and cooked medium well. it was okay but not what I wanted. See for yourself...

    Medium Pepperoni Pizza Meatball Sub! Yum yum yum such a great combination not to mention the garlic bread as the base sets it all off sooooooo good! A must try!

    Craving a delicious sandwich? Look no further than Firehouse Subs! Just had the New York Steamer with chips, a pickle, and a drink - blew all other sandwich spots out of the water -Highly recommend giving them a try!

    I went in for a soup & this is the junk i got served. Very disappointed in the meal i bought tonight.

    So, if you know me then you'll know sandwiches are not my first choice for lunch or dinner and it's not something I would go out of my way to get, but for some reason I love this place. The hot sandwiches have been delicious and if you haven't tried this place, I think you should try it when you're in the area. I don't know if this is locally owned or if this is a franchise, but I have never heard of "Firehouse subs" until I saw it here. I have tried both their wheat and white bread and they were both delicious. They taste homemade and fresh. Right now, my favorite sandwich is the Philly Cheese sandwich. They put a good portion of protein. I think they put peppers and onions, but my last sandwich I got did not have onions, so I am not sure. The pickle they serve is delicious and they might make them in-house. It's individually wrapped and served on the side of your sandwich. Like most sub sandwich places, you can ask for other veggies and toppings. They don't have a huge selection, but they have a good amount of options and sides. Lunch time can be a bit busy as they are located off of California and the area can be busy with traffic since there's other food options in the same parking lot. They are a little pricey, but I think it's worth it. Don't forget to download the app so you can get your free birthday perk. You can also build points so it goes towards your next visits. I don't eat here very much so I haven't accumulated enough points to redeem anything. Every time I have visited this place, the restaurant has been pretty clean and isn't usually busy. Staff is always polite and if you order ahead or use your app then your sandwich will be ready on their shelf.

    This is my go to if I want a delicious sandwich in Bakersfield. I really like that no matter what sandwich I get, it's always made just as good as the last sandwich I had there. I remember wanting to try this place for years. Now living in Bakersfield, I usually go at least once a week. I have not had a bad sandwich yet! I like that the sandwich is always made with really good, fresh ingredients. You can choose from one of the regular menu sandwiches or just have them make one just the way you want it. They have salads too. And they actually use romaine lettuce. That's actually a great choice and not expected at a sandwich shop. And what sandwich would be complete without the Coca Cola freestyle machine. It's always nice when you can make your own beverage just how you like too! If you haven't had Firehouse Subs yet, give them a try.

    My order of side of banana peppers, didn't get it again

    I like their sandwiches, I've ordered pickup several times for work, but every time I ask for extra pickles or side of banana peppers, it's always missing.

    Delicious  Smokehouse Beef & Cheddar Brisket
    Poncho H.

    You can't go wrong when you have a firehouse sub. I ordered the Corned Beef Brisket w pastrami. So delicious. The bread was perfectly toasted. The brisket with the pastrami was mouth exploding. My wife had the beef and cheddar sandwich. It was good. Next time not to much sauce but it was good!! I'll definitely be trying something new next time. Thank you for the quick order. They do have a few tables outside for outdoor eating. They do have COVID restrictions but well organized.

    Turkey ranch. Tiny for a small and way too much mayo. Get a med. At least for value's sake unless feeding a child.

    My experience was a 2 star but I would like to come back and try again another day when in that part of town. It is a newer place and has a lot of potential. Likes: Friendly service Menu Board is cool Loved all the hot sauces for use Italian sub was good. (If you any appetite at all, get the Medium size, at least. I do not eat a lot at a time but the small size was laughable. A 4 biter.) Hubby said the soda machine is cool Lemons available at the drink machines for those that drink water, like me Clean enough, inside I like the whole wheat bread option but they messed up my baby sandwich with white Dislikes: Not sure exactly whose responsibility it is but the garbage can right out in front of the business was spilling over, full, garbage piled on top. Yuck. Not a nice greeting. The place is way too expensive for what you get. Way. The wait time to make the subs, fresh to order or not, is too long. We waited too long a time for my 4-biter (plus 1) that was almost inedible as there was too much mayo on it. This after I said I did not like any sauces on my sandwiches. I take some responsibility though, I needed to be more specific, I suppose. One person only looked to be making all of the sandwiches. I do not like that I cannot see my sandwich being made. I prefer the Subway method. To sum up - the food is OK, too expensive, the wait is too long but the service is friendly and the restaurant is cool looking for 'fast food'. TIP - make sure you check under your sandwich for your wrapped up pickle! Easy to miss!

I rave about this place to everyone I know, and encourage my people to stop here if they're taking a road trip to Vegas or LA from the bay. I finally tried the milkshakes this time around. The banana was ok, the pineapple was better. I like that it's not hella artificial. I love that they use real fruit bits. I'm not a huge fan of crinkle cut fries usually, but I like theirs. Why? Because they actually fry the fries to a crisp and then they're well seasoned. Yum. Every time I've come through, the girls working have always been really nice. Customer service is on point. I usually hit the drive thru and then park to eat. It's definitely a good place to people watch.. but I keep my doors locked lol. There's always a lot of movement on the street...

Hands down, it's the best Western barbecue sandwich I've ever had. The flavors are bold and perfectly balanced, the smoky barbecue sauce, melty cheese, and crispy onion rings come together in a way that just works.

The seasoned fries deserve their own shoutout too, crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and seasoned just right. They're the perfect side to an already knockout burger. If you're craving a true Western-style burger that delivers on flavor and quality, Shakes n Buns absolutely nails it. I'd go back for this sandwich alone without hesitation.

    I stumbled onto Hot Tender Wings the way most hidden gems get discovered these days -- through an…read moreInstagram page dedicated to spotting local Bakersfield spots. Honestly, if it wasn't for them, I probably never would've known this place existed. Hot Tender Wings doesn't seem to do much marketing, and it's tucked away on Union Avenue near Superior Grocery, so it's easy to drive right past it. But I'm glad I didn't. I went with the 8 Piece Tender/Wing Combo -- 4 Garlic Parmesan wings and 4 Lemon Pepper tenders -- which came with a can of soda, fries, and a dip. The menu also lists coleslaw and garlic toast, but those didn't make it into my bag, made me a little sad. I also grabbed the Mexican Burger, which caught my eye because there's a spot in LA that does a legit al pastor burger patty, and I thought this was the same concept. Took everything back to the office for lunch, and my wife and I went in. The Garlic Parmesan wings were seriously good -- well-seasoned, cooked through, and still crispy. The Lemon Pepper tenders were juicy with great seasoning, not dry like so many places serve them. That's honestly the bar most spots fail to clear -- wings and tenders are either fire or garbage, rarely in between -- and Hot Tender Wings cleared it with room to spare. The fries were standard but fresh and seasoned well, no complaints there. Now, about that Mexican Burger. When I unwrapped it, I realized it was built like a torta -- al pastor meat, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, the whole thing on a hamburger-style bun. Was I a little let down? Yeah, slightly. But was it good? Absolutely. It just wasn't what I pictured. If you're going there for wings, stay in your lane and get the wings -- they outshine the Mexican Burger by miles. I probably won't reorder it, but only because I'm at a wing spot next time, not because it was bad. Speaking of wings, their current flavor lineup is Original, BBQ, Garlic Parmesan, Lemon Pepper, Mango Habanero, Sweet Chili, Buffalo, and Nashville Hot -- solid, but pretty standard. What separates the good spots from the great ones is when they go beyond the basics and make it their own. Bakersfield Pizza Company does Taco wings and Strawberry Chili wings. Fire Wings leans into Asian-inspired flavors. Hot Tender Wings is already solid -- now imagine if they leaned into their surroundings and added Mexican/Hispanic-inspired flavors. Birria wings where they thicken the consomé into a toss sauce? An Elote-style wing dusted with cotija and chili lime? Yes, I'm putting this in writing. Yes, I'm a little obsessed. But that kind of creativity would make them standout in this city. Go check them out. The food is good, the price is right, and they're easy to get to. Just make sure you get the wings and tenders, straight GAS!!

    Five stars for Sylvester…read more This may sound like a small thing, but it made a big difference after a long day. When I sit down to enjoy a meal, I want my Coke to actually taste like Coke. My wife noticed the soda was off, and when I tried it, it was clearly out of syrup. I asked if it could be changed. The first employee (wearing red) said yes, but after about five minutes nothing happened. I figured he might be busy, so no big deal. I then spoke with Sylvester--and that's where things changed. He immediately took initiative and went to work on the issue. Unknown to me at the time, he actually changed the syrup box at the back counter. While that was happening, I asked the first employee again if the soda had been changed. He offered to get soda from the back counter, then asked another employee (pink hoodie), who shook his head no. I was told they were out of syrup. At the exact same moment, Sylvester came out and told me he had changed the box. That's when it became clear: one person actually checked and solved the problem, while another just wanted the issue to go away. The soda at this location has been consistently bad, and because of that I had stopped coming here altogether. Sylvester single-handedly restored my confidence in this place. It's rare--but refreshing--to deal with someone who takes ownership, even for something small. Honestly, I would not have come back after this visit if it weren't for Sylvester. Great ending to a long day. Thank you for caring and for doing the job right.
