My first Firehouse Subs experience was in Jacksonville almost 30 years ago. Hook and Ladder and their spicy meatball are my go to's. This location is always friendly, staff is on top of the orders, making it all move quickly and smoothly. Also, who doesn't love the Cherry Limade? 27.01.2026 read more

We stopped in to pick up a couple of Hook & Ladder subs. Our visit was fine, we received the Firehouse "Welcome to Firehouse" greeting, the place was fairly clean. Ordering at the counter was easy and the order was correct. It only took 5-6 minutes for the sandwiches to be ready, and we were on our way. When we ate our food a bit later the sandwiches were delicious. I never vary from this particular warm sandwich with its ham and turkey filling and enough mayo and deli mustard to make it a little messy. In fact, we pick up food a couple of times a month from a Firehouse that's closer to where we live. This chain has consistently good food. read more

On a scale of 1 to 10 when they say they toast something I'd give them a two also the employees got vulgar mouths and need a good amount of soap to wash it out read more

Excellent Italian sub! I got the largest one an ate half last night for dinner. The bun was nice and soft. The meat content was perfect and a lot of it. I put peppers on it too cause I love them. I used to work for Pizza Villa in Ohio and they made the best subs ever. It says Italian dressing but I did not see it so I put more on. the only thing I did not like is that the ham was sweet. no......just....no...lolol all in all though a great order!! read more

Out on a site visit and it was pushing lunch time and the group picked Firehouse Subs. This was my first time here. We were welcomed when coming in. Ordering was quick and easy. I got the hook and ladder with smoked turkey breast and honey ham smothered with Monterey Jack, mayo, lettuce, tomato, onion, deli mustard, and a pickle spear on the side and I added some heat as it is called Firehouse Subs. The sub and the meats were warm and not salty. I got the combo that includes a drink and chips. This is a good choice for lunch. read more

I love fire house subs. The dough was fresh and well cooked. Delivery was expensive it came out to 32 dollars just for a 12" sub. No drink or chips read more

Ordered for the office yesterday. Ordered at 1133am delivery was not until 130pm. Food Was soggy. Ordered drinks and they where not sent. Contacted Customer service and nothing we will not be ordering again read more

I got the Cajun chicken and OMG, probably the best sub I've ever had. I know all prices have gone up, and there's no such thing as a $5 footlong, but loaded with meat, so worth the price. My wife picked it up easily, and she said in and out. read more

The guy who took our order was very nice and sweet with the kids and the food was as expected but the rest of the staff was loud, unprofessional and rude to each other. read more

The food was great and the service was amazing (I had a HERO fully involved, my wife had a Steak and Cheese). The food cane out so fast and they were serving a while basketball team when we ordered. I will recommend them to anyone in the Bradenton area, especially if you have an event like tourneys at IMG Academy or a local high school. Bottom line, this was an unexpected and awesome surprise. read more

Firehouse Subs - Got a combo with a brownie. Yum - Fast Food Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

Terrible.....why would a Italian sub be heated.....was the worst sun hands down......would not recommend or return......

Always a pleasure with their crew. Love the soft bread and quality meats for the subs. Highly recommended!

I'm biased. I love the sweet Italian it has amazing taste and it's so much better than jersey mikes, subway or Jimmy johns.

I love their subs! I ordered the small hook and ladder sandwich, while my husband ordered a large Italian combo. I forgot that they bring the food to your table, so I was standing there waiting for our food and the cashier told the next 2 customers that the small sandwich they ordered was very small and that they may want to consider a medium. Wonder why she didn't tell me that? She is right, it's extremely small and I had a few bites of my husband's sandwich. Next time I will have to remember the size, because there will be a next time. They are good! read more

My sub was crap! The bread was stale! The service was very rude and pushy! No ambiance Everybody when I was there was yelling at the person taking orders! Nasty absolutely nasty! read more

This Firehouse Subs has the new Coca-Cola freestyle v2. We always love coming to firehouse subs because they have the best sandwiches around! You get a lot of Sandwedge even though it is a bit pricey it is really worth it! The people are always friendly the staff always smiling and they make incredible sandwiches! I love the bread at firehouse! It's the main reason I choose the sandwich shop over some of the other ones. Plus the quality of the meats and vegetables on your sandwiches are always excellent. If you want you can ask for any minor changes to your sandwiches and they always accommodate your request. I love that they have the new freestyle machines and allow you to customize your Coca-Cola drinks anywhere you want. Plus they have the firehouse cherry aid which is their signature drink. If you've never had it you've got to try it and make sure you squeeze a couple of lime slices into it. read more

The sub was good but the portion size was small spent $13.15 for a meal and the sub was extremely small compared to what I remember from 2 yrs ago very disappointed read more

I visited Firehouse Subs for my first visit. I asked for a ham and Swiss cheese sub with all the trimmings. When I got home there was no cheese on my sandwich, no onions and no mustard. The ham should have been spread throughout the whole sandwich. It was all at one end. I really wanted to love Firehouse Subs and although it wasn't all bad I was disappointed. I can only give it a 3 out of 5. I will give it another chance but if you don't have Swiss cheese don't tell me you do and then leave it off the sandwich. It was my first visit and I really wanted a 5 out of 5 review. Anyway like I said I'll give it another chance. read more

Amazing subs. Manager kaite is the sweetest. Had the carribean Jerk Turkey sub. So delicious. Super clean restaurant as well! read more

Firehouse Subs - OVER CHARGED!!!!!! - Fast Food Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

the first time I've been to a firehouse subs in many many years. First time I've been at this location ever. Two girls were working the counter and they were fantastic. Very courteous and helpful and they got it done quickly. read more

If this my first visit to her you firehouse subs, it would be my last. First of all, the young woman taking our order Mumbled everything, we continually had to have her repeat yourself. Next, I told her I needed my sub made with no mushrooms, and it came out covered and mushrooms. When I returned it to have it remade, the woman behind the counter acted like it was all my fault. When my husband ordered his sub with only mayo lettuce and tomato, he was asked if he would also like to have it made with onions, Green peppers & mustard. Ugh! Listen! On top of it all, the floor was filthy. The temperature was freezing. Overall not a good experience. And absolutely nothing like our other experiences with firehouse subs. read more

This location is filled with incompetent employees. They can not read simple instructions for food orders. I have placed several orders for PLAIN sandwiches and they consistently come fully loaded. The receipt will say no, lettuce, no tomato, etc. They completely ignore these instructions. I ALWAYS click no pickle in the box option, and of course it always comes in the box. Ruining the bread of the sandwich. I have called over and over to ask why they can't follow instructions and the manager just told me that maybe I just shouldn't order from them anymore. Yes, the manager felt the best way to handle HER mess up is to tell the customer not to come back. Will be reaching out to corporate. read more

If I did not have to leave a star I would not have. 2 Steak and cheese sandwiches, one with mushrooms, no side pickles. Did not get mushrooms and received pickles. The worst steak and cheese I have ever had! Could not even tell there was cheese on it. Not seasoned at all. All bread and minimal steak. I will never go there again. read more

Not very good customer service. It wasn't very busy about 4 people ahead of me and I had to wait 22 mins for my sandwich. They didn't even apologize. 2 people making sandwiches and i had to wait 22 mins and my sandwich wasn't even that great it was soggy and everything kept falling out. Waiting long seems to be very common with Firehouse subs. This was only my 2nd time eating it, the first time was at another location where I also had to wait forever. I won't be going back to any. read more

Great customer service ! The ingredients are all fresh tasting and my sub was perfect! I would recommend it too anyone who thinks all subs are the same. That aren't! read more

My company has tried ordering subs for 60+ people twice now; placing reservations in weeks in advance and when the day and time came to pick up the food.... nothing is ready and no one could even recall that we had placed an order. It's incredibly upsetting to not be able to rely on a company to complete their job and provide food for our associates and guests. Will not be working with them again, and do not recommend them for catering purposes either. read more

We wanted to go to Nam Fong for lunch but the line was literally out the door so we opted for Firehouse Subs since it was right there. It wasn't bad but it wasn't better than Jimmy John's or Jersey Mike's. I think I might have just ordered the wrong sandwich...I ordered the Engineer (for me, I think it would have been better cold minus the mushrooms). read more

Good sandwich, fair price. I've eaten here before, and will again. Quite busy at lunch, but the staff remains courteous, and the quality remains consistent. If you seek a franchise quality sub sandwich, Firehouse isn't the worst choice. read more

Apparently no quality consistency between locations! I have eaten several times at Firehouse Sub restaurant in Clayton, NC and once at the restaurant in Boise Idaho. DELICIOUS BBQ Beef Brisket sandwich with NO FAT. Just got my favorite BBQ Beef Brisket sub at the location on Cortez Rd. in Bradenton, FL. VERY DISAPPOINTED! The sandwich was AT LEAST HALF FAT!!!! Who wants that? I guess the different locations do not have a quality control standard to which they adhere. Won't be back until I can go to another location! read more

The food was absolutely disgusting. Soggy bread sloppily put together into a mess. Absolutely disgusting.

stood five minutes before they spoke to us. the sub I had was a wet mess. wet cheese, and mayo. thank God I asked for no BBQ sauce. they were arguing with a customer about his sandwich size. The man didn't want a childs size. they have three sizes and they should have said that this small is not half a sandwich. The place was dirty. I love food and rarely have a bad review but twice Bradenton I dint like the sandwiches.My friend said her 'build your own' exactly what she wanted and the girl got upset when I said the lady doesn't eat cheese. She had to start over due to that wet cheese. Can not see them make the sandwich due to the counter hight. Sorry/ Not impressed and won't return. read more

The food is always good. Wish they would add a Reuben and a Cuban sandwich to the menu.

First time eating at this restaurant and I really enjoyed all the food. I had a small "club in a sub" sandwich, side salad & loaded potato soup. The order taker told me up front that there was a wait on the soup and they were out of oyster crackers but I could substitute for the crackers if I wanted. I didn't but it was nice to have the option. The young lady bringing my food to the table also gave me an update on my soup & offered a substitution for the oyster crackers. I was impressed with the attention to detail and that my soup hadn't been forgotten. They also asked if I wanted my salad dressing on the side, rather than on the salad-another nice touch. They also had an eclectic and varied selections of hot sauces that I could add myself; with small plastic containers available to put them in. From the employee's comments and chat I could see they were attentive and worked well together; sharing order info & assisting each other easily and comfortably. It made for a calm & welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely eat her It's been a couple of months and I've been read more

The subs are delicious! I heard great things and had to make a stop with my girls before we had to drive long distance. The ladies who worked there that day were super nice and friendly. Thanks for the hospitality :) read more

The only thing that would make their meatball sub better would be bread from Mazzaros in St. Pete.

Just visited the subs that we had today was very good. They totally loaded our subs up. Walked in and was greeted. Clean , fast & friendly. We definitely will go back. read more

We haven't been to this location in a while as our last visit wasn't great. I was pretty surprised at this recent visit. It was quick, staff was friendly and I was taken care of as if I mattered. Not the typical a year back or so. Kate took my order and was more than helpful. Brittany was who handed me my food and I was left with a smile and "thank you for coming to see us". my sub was made perfectly. I asked for honey mustard instead of deli, they had the perfect amount on there. It was just an overall great atmosphere and experience. We will be back. read more

These guys are pretty good. I worked at a Firehouse out in San Diego for a few months as a part time gig on the side to save up some money, so I know how everything works and how it's supposed to look and taste since I ate their may times a week. This one is right across from LA Fitness so I like to go in after workouts sometimes to get a fairly healthy meal in. Taste=5 stars all day!! Every firehouse I've been to from San Diego to Illinois to Miami has been amazing and is never second to anyone in the quality or taste category. If i remember correctly, Firehouse standards call for sandwiches to be done in a minimum of 6-8 minutes. My store in North County SD had a great staff and consistently sent out sandwiches with sub-5 minute ticket times, pretty solid for a store that was always busy and overflowed into the parking lot with people during lunch and dinner hours. I have not seen this store in Bradenton get busy but my sandwich is always out in 5-6 minutes or less. This is pretty good because other firehouses I've been to around the country have been extremely slow and I've never had a sandwich from other ones come out in less than 10 minutes which is frustrating but I will deal with it every time because I love the sandwiches so much! So amazing. Absolutely destroying Subway, Quizno's, Jersey Mike's and Jimmy John's despite the sometimes longer wait. I highly recommend the Turkey Bacon Ranch!!! While maybe not the totally healthiest selection they have, definitely amazing! You can create your own sub as well if you don't like the named combos on the menu. I would say the Steamer and Hook & Ladder have to be my other favorites! They also have the under 500 calories menu! And you can get any sandwich from the regular menu with the low-cal Hearty and Flavorful wheat bun. Don't be afraid to customize your sandwich and add/subtract anything! Most firehouses are great with customer service and won't make you feel like you're being annoying! Do your thing! read more

Ordered food yesterday through the app and they messed it up. I called because I had the receipt showing it was ordered properly. Very nice manager (Cindy) said to come in the next night (it's not right around the corner) and she would remake it. Husband goes in tonight (Cindy is not there) and gets the same exact order again. They did comp it because of the night before which was nice. Get food home and it is again not right. Called again and manager was very nice. Nice is not getting me dinner 2 nights in a row. This place is overrun with either incompetence or just a lack of caring. read more
