This was a terrible experience. Skip this place and go to Jersey Mike's! My wife and I ordered two sub combos and it came to 37! When we got our subs they offered us the combo and said we can get chips, fries, Mac and cheese or soup. We both got the soup. Silly me didn't look at what I was being charged for, big MISTAKE! They charged me an extra 4$ for each combo. Then they charged me another $3.40 for each cup of soup! When I brought the fact that they charged me an extra for the soup which was supposed to be part of the combo they just shrugged their shoulders and blamed the register. They couldn't even explain why I would be charged for a combo and then charged again for the side. I asked if maybe the side came with chips and the soup was extra and they said, no you dont get chips. The only solution they offered was to call corporate. With all the other options in the area, I will not be coming back. I strongly suggest that you double check what your being charged before you pay! read more

Firehouse Subs - Charged $4 for each combo then another $3.40 for the side. A total of $14.80 for two drinks and two cups of soup! - Fast Food Near Me - Pickerington, Ohio

First time at this location, it wasn't overly busy, but I still had a 10-12min wait. The staff was friendly, yet I did not ask many questions. I ordered up their new French dip, which I believe was a promotional item as it was not on the regular menu. The bread was soft and tasty, there were ample toppings on the sub as well as ample meat. it had really good flavor. The supplemental auju provided on the side was good; however, I ordered takeout, which allowed the lid to pop off and leak all over the bag and box. Disappointing. Overall Id return to the place and try a different sub, pending I verify the take out packaging prior to leaving the store. read more

This location has went sooo far downhill the last 6-8 months but today takes the cake. Pick was a joke with my mobile order because the female workers were more obsessed with flirting with the male worker to get my order. Then this is the sandwich I got. Smh. read more

Boy, I sure hate writing reviews like this. Literally, the worst sub I've had in years. I ordered a medium Chicken Parmesan. This sounds wonderful, but in reality is a few meatballs with mozzarella in a bland tomato paste sprinkled with Parmesan. Okay, I guess they'd be chicken balls. Maybe pipin' hot it's better. But by the time it gets to the table and cools? Sorry, it was a crunchy, boring, canned tomato tasteless disappointment. Not to mention how messy things got. Extra napkins, please. Imagine a carry-out? You'd have to pop it in the oven or the nuker when you got home. The two young men were very nice and worked quickly. But the only other thing they had to do was watch basketball on tv. They have a clean, spacious dining room that appears bigger because it's empty. Kind of odd on a Sunday at 5:30. Maybe it's due to not having the a/c turned on or maybe I'm learning what everyone already knows? Firehouse has built an image around firefighting and first response. While this is terrific, understand the extent of their generosity is 0.075% of every dollar earned gets donated to support the local fire community. Again, thank you. If my math is correct that means for every $10,000 they take in they donate $7.50 . Seven dollars and fifty cents. I suppose it's better than giving nothing, but, I'm not giving them huge accolades for riches they're giving back. 07/24 read more

I'll preface this by pointing out that this is not the first time I've experienced the below. I understand mistakes happen, but ignoring the mistake will push me to take my business elsewhere. In an order of two sandwiches, one sandwich was correct while the other had cheese though a request for no cheese was made. The food gets three stars. The franchisee's response to a complaint, or lack thereof, deserves bottom of the barrel of one star. 1 stars are difficult to obtain, or at least they should be. The overall order averages out to 2 stars with the only redeeming quality is the one sandwich that was made correctly; it was also ordered without modifications. For anyone who wants a sandwich, Jimmy John's is right up the road and they always get it right. Toodles. read more

Cons: - floor is dirty throughout the restaurant - drink counter is dirty & messy - tables & chairs are sticky & dirty - bathroom is the worse of them all - all of the workers have long hairs but none of them have hairnets? Pros: However, food is good & tasty. I ordered an Engineer hot sub & pleasantly surprised by the taste of it. read more

I got a notice for 50% off subs for Monday night after 6pm. I use to order firehouse subs all the time for business, but since I moved I haven't had any in a while. 50% off...YES Please! I oordered on line. Checked the order, pressed enter, paid. Was excited to go pick it up. I get there at my appointed time. Walk in. Greeted warmly. Tell them my name. My order wasn't ready, but the other person was working on it. In walks another guy, his wasn't ready either, he expresses frustration, he gets his order. A couple of ladies walk in, confusion with the app. Which by the way takes both workers away from making sandwiches. Frustration happens. The girl that was making my order, re-engages in sandwich making. Apparently something got dropped and has to be remade. I say I'll take it cold, told no and they proceed in the remake. This whole time I can see a third worker in the back, looking like she was playing with a phone - maybe it was her break but I was there for 20 minutes. OK my sandwiches are finally ready. Asked to grab my chips. Handed a bag. A few mishaps, but 50% off sandwiches it can be excused. Then, I get the bag home. The hubby's club sandwich was missing bacon, did not have swiss cheese as asked for - his response was no more firehouse. My sandwich with was an Italian. Had mustard, which i said no mustard. I asked for cucumbers- woohoo I found 2 small pieces. It just tasted like it was missing stuff. And to add insult, I asked for an extra pickle spear. We got NO pickle spears- which is always a highlight for me. My expectations of Firehouse are high based on the service I have received in different cities on business. This location is lacking on so many levels. read more

Was in a few days ago had very nice service. And the food was hot and steamy. Much cleaner than past. Looked like new management too didn't see them the last time I was in. Would definitely recommend this location. read more

Missed every modification requested and added ingredients not even ordered. Plus I found a piece of plastic in my sandwich. This is the third time I've given this location a try. Each time something has been wrong. Disappointing cause I love firehouse, but definitely won't be back to this location after getting a macropastic in my meal read more

Subs are good! Satisfying. Take out service on the money! Always ready. Location is convenient for us.

I finally got to try Firehouse Subs tonight and I'd say they did a pretty good job. My son was about to place an online order before I convinced him to download the app and sign up for their eclub to take advantage of their benefits and loyalty program. Now that I think about it, I didn't really convince him, so much as he allowed ME to download it and place the order FOR him. Consequently, I made him pay for mine (the universe always has a way of restoring balance within itself). I ordered the Club On A Sub (Smoked turkey breast, Virginia honey ham, pepper bacon, and melted Monterey Jack) while he ordered the Turkey Bacon Ranch (Smoked turkey breast, pepper bacon, melted sharp cheddar cheese, onion, lettuce, tomato, mayo, and creamy peppercorn ranch dressing.), both larges. By the way, "Large" is an understatement. That thing is huge (see the photo)! Being my first order through the app, I was rewarded a free large drink (saving $2.89). The ordering process is simple, but got to be a bit confusing when I tried to redeem the coupon for the drink. Turns out, you have to select the reward item, then go back to the order and cash out. The problem is/was, I couldn't find definitive information that the order was completed and that the bonus item was approved. Thanfully it was. We got to the restaurant for pickup a little after the indicated completion time, but they were very kind with their greeting and the checkout process was quick and efficient. The subs themselves were tasty, but not phenomenal. In their defense, I got normal sandwiches that don't deviate too far from the traditional recipe. Still, the bread was fresh and tasty and the ingredients were as good as I expected, so they don't lose any points with me. I could easily return there, particularly to try some of the other items, but to be honest, I won't go out of my way to visit. Not talking bad about them, just saying that nothing stood out in grand fashion. But you might love them, so give them a shot! read more

I've been going to firehouse for years, but I've only gone to the one on Polaris. This is my first time going into this restaurant and it was absolutely amazing. It was very clean. The staff was very friendly and I did place my order online but I was a little bit early and they got it out right on time. highly recommend this place. I will continue to go here. thank you to the friendly staff that was there tonight read more

Nothing was stocked, as in hardly any chips, napkins, bottled drinks. Drink fountain was disgusting as were the bathrooms. Super slow service and got orders wrong. At least they corrected those orders and the worker owned up to it even though the supervisor was trying to fight us on punching in the wrong thing. One employee told another co-worker he couldn't hear very well because he had 1 AirPod in, laughed and continued to take my order. read more

The staff was kind and friendly when they didn't have what seemed to be their manager breathing down their necks. my husband and I visited around lunch time to get our usual hook and ladder sub. we love the staff at the Pickerington location but today was different, there was this older looking man who kept on barking orders at and ripping things from the poor kids hands. purely unprofessional behavior, no matter the role. He acted like a child whenever ever they messed up, this is unacceptable and needs a response, the poor kids seem terrified! read more

I've been ordering pickup subs at this Pickerington, Ohio location for the last couple of years. After church I decided to treat a friend. I went into the restroom to wash my hands and I felt like I left the restaurant and was catapulted into a third world country. I saw a restroom with a floor that hadn't been mopped in weeks or possibly months. A toilet that also hadn't been cleaned in months. The sink had layers of dirt like tree rings. I've worked in restaurants during my college days and I've learned that if the restrooms aren't clean the prep rooms in back are probably just as dirty. This made me look a little closer at the dining area. There was one other patron sitting at a table eating. But, all of the available tables were not clean. We had to choose a table with the fewer amount of crumbs. Then my friend came back from the ladies restroom. She had a similar disappointed experience in the ladies restroom. Then we scanned to see the root of the problems, the employees. How could they use a restroom so dirty and not want to show initiative and or teamwork and clean the restrooms, tables or the floor? Then again, their hair should have also been enclosed in hair nets. Well, to eat or not to eat. That is the question. Pickerington, Ohio Fire House Subs read more

We stopped to get Carryout this past Sunday, 3 Italian large Subs and one large Ruben. When we opened one of the Subs it has a crumpled up used Napkin in the box , touching the Sub! With Covid that was shocking, but of course that is disgusting anytime! Ham on 3 Italian subs was sliced very thick and tasted awful, Normally it is sliced very thin? None of the Four Subs was editable! Beware of unclean practices , especially during Covid! Contact the Health Dept! read more

food is always good but today i placed an online order at 11:15am and received confirmation that my order would be ready for pick up at 11:30am. After waiting in the store for for an additional 35 minutes, my food was FINALLY ready at 12:05pm. I spoke with multiple other customers while waiting and they also said they have been there for quite some time! There were even people who came in and ordered after me and got their food before me....so disappointed. read more

This location has gone downhill. Went in today and had to get refunded on my drinks I ordered because their soda machine was out of ice and out of most sodas. Coke stopped dispensing when my cup was 1/4 of the way full. Counters were dirty, there was a layer of dust on the counter in front of the people making the sandwiches. Staff was perfectly nice and they made good sandwiches, no issue with them or the food. Just not sure why the place looks in such disarray. Don't think I'll be returning to this location. read more

Great experience. Was welcomed upon entry. 3 employees behind counter. Told cashier I'd never eaten at Firehouse before and asked for specials. She recommended Meatball Combo. She have me a number and cup and I sat down. Clean tables. Clean floor. TVs on showing a Home Renovation type show and ESPN. Food took a bit longer than I expected, but was brought to table hot and looked great Great tasting sub. Good marinara sauce. Highly recommend this Firehouse location. read more

Firehouse Subs - a hand holding a sandwich - Fast Food Near Me - Pickerington, Ohio

If I could leave 0 stars I would. When I arrived the young teenagers argued about who would take my order while I waited at the register. Finally, someone decided to do their job and take it. After that, they all argued about who would make my sub. They had friends in the store and they were all talking about their personal drama which usually wouldn't bother me, but nobody wanted to do their job. Then, when I got home to eat my sub, there was no meat on half the sub. Worst experience I've ever had at firehouse. read more

Went to firehouse subs for 1st time in Lancaster Oh. Was disappointed. Ironically there was plenty of meat just very little of everything else. Very little slaw and pickles. About 1/2 the thickness that you see in the pic. They say it's fully involved but i'd say its more standoffish. We had 2 different subs and both had the same issues. read more

Went into this location after DJ'ing an office party. The staff was super friendly and the store was clean. The food was AMAZING!!!! I got the large Italian, and let me tell you what... it SMACKED! I will definitely stop again when I'm in town, and would recommend this location to anyone. read more

I ended up here for lunch because I was subbing for a high school Spec Ed teacher whose class went here for their Friday outing. White walls. Lots of firehouse esque decorations/paintings/photos adorn the walls. They're in the end unit of the small strip plaza, thus lots of windows let all the sunshine in. The ordering set-up is a bit awkward: once you enter, you have to walk in front of all the tables, to the other end of the room to place your order for here. When we got there, it was having a lunch rush, this it took us five or so minutes just to get to the registers. We ordered, paid, and each student was given a number stand to take back to their seat. Sammies are made to order. On average, I'd say the kids and teachers were getting our sandwich in about 8 minutes. I'd never been to FH before, not even looked at their menu. I was very happy to see their 500 And Under section - all these sammies where under 500 calories. Just right! I chose Mama's Chicken Salad sub. Lite "sauce" - no heavy mayo taste. No necessarily "sweet", but no pickled/pucker face, either. Comes with lettuce, tomato and lite mayonnaise. The wheat roll bun was very soft and fresh. read more

Stopped in for a quick sandwich. Was upset they took away the hook and ladder light. Got the regular. It was good as always, but still upset about the calories. Will return. read more

Same quality as the other Firehouse Sibs I've eaten at however the management could use a class on courtesy as they were very rushed and failed to crack a smile. Can't go wrong with the meatball sub. read more

Firehouse Subs - Meatball - Fast Food Near Me - Pickerington, Ohio

i was all for the great resignation , people do need payed more in the fast food industry for sure and have been making peanuts for years while greedy corporations make millions . But with that said, now firehouse and almost all chain restaurant's have just cut back on the amount of things like the meat on a sandwich and even shorting on soups and sizes of other things to make up for the hire pay they have to pay now and even seems like most all are even short handed since they even hire less employees per shift . i at first even thought it might of just been the employees fault and they just made a mistake , so i reordered a few days latter and it actually even had less meat on it and their soup bowl was half full not 3/4 like the last time . Also now must of the employees are teenagers at most of the restaurants nowadays and all their doing are playing on their phones and usually make you wait while even longer because they had to see what on Bobby's or Jesicas tic-tok or snap they posted before they get your food for you . I think I'm about done with eating out fast food until this gets figured out and the ones that are cutting back on portion sizes and hiring the ones who are just their because their mom and dad wants them to get a job since they went to college for six years and partied and didn't get a degree in anything besides liberal arts . Either they do or the'll just be a memory of that restaurant that use to be there just like so many before them . read more

Great atmosphere, people, and food... Definitely much more of a hang out than the local loud bar. Kids, family, friends, it's a place the locals wanna go. read more

Firehouse Subs - Look at all that meat! Lip smackin' good! - Fast Food Near Me - Pickerington, Ohio

Not the same as the one on Sawmill. We weren't greeted when we walked in like we were there. But most importantly, the subs weren't the same. My wife's bun didn't even have all the sandwich material across the whole bun. It was just stacked on one side. I could've gotten that at half the price somewhere else. We love Firehouse and will be back to this location (it is the closest one to us since we moved) on the hopes that this was just an off day. read more

I have ordered subs from this location, never felt compelled to write a review until today, after having a surprisingly cold, cheese less sub elsewhere. This place has hot, delicious subs with a generous amount of meat and ooey gooey cheesy goodness. Very nice I suppose that they have lower calorie selections on the menu, however when I'm getting subs, I am looking for the full experience, and these guys deliver. Pretty quickly too and while using ovens, not microwaves. Try the steak and cheese, doesn't even need mayo or condiments at all, perfect as is. read more

Super dirty! Tables, napkin holders, floor look like they haven't been cleaned in months! Subs good though. But makes you wonder if food prep is clean. read more

Firehouse Subs - Fast Food Near Me - Pickerington, Ohio

The subs are fantastic I think fairly priced for the portions. The meat melts in your mouth it's so good. Service was great and quick. Definitely my favorite place for subs or sandwiches. Really glad one opened in Pickerington! read more

I've never been here before but the anticipation started the moment I opened the door. The aroma was mouthwatering and the sub lived up to it. WHY had I never been here before now? The wait for a takeout order wasn't long and the eating area was clean except for a sticky floor by the soda fountain. (All the employees were working hard behind the counter and it was just after the dinner rush, so...) read more

Interesting. The sandwiches are a good size. I tried the meatball... which is perhaps the odd option here. Most of the rest are deli style. The meatballs were not bad. But I won't be returning to order that again. I was looking for exceptional and this particular order didn't make it for me. I will be back to try one or two other options at some point. If you like Quiznos or penn station or some of the similar sandwich spots try this one. read more

Been here twice. The service was below average and the food was decent. Maybe a step above Subway but nothing special. I got the pastrami sandwich the first time and the meatball sub the second time. One thing they don't tell you is that you should order your toppings when you order your sandwich. Having never been there I didn't know how it worked and the cashier did not ask if I wanted any toppings. The second time I went is when I noticed the turnstile with the toppings listed next to the cashier. The management should probably encourage their employees (who seem a little miserable) that they should ask the customer if they want any additional toppings when they order the sandwich. The place has fun decor. Love the hot sauce options! read more

I've been to this location three times. I would second the notion that the staff needs a briefing in courtesy. I had an issue with my Brisket sub where they forgot to heat the meat before placing it on the sub. I let the girl at the register know about it and she rolled her eyes. I left it at that for the moment. I did fill out their survey and noted in the temperature category that it was unsatisfactory. I was contacted the next day by corporate and the shop manager. They replaced my Sub but forgot to dress it with the sauces and chess that goes in it. I called and got the dreaded cashier again. The manager was gone for the day, Sigh :/. I have chalked firehouse up to a loss and will visit one of the other mediocre chains as they at least let Ya watch so you can get what you order. read more

My husband and I love Firehouse Subs in Pickerington, Ohio. Their sandwiches may be more than Subway, but they are so worth it in taste, in the amount of food you get , quality, in everyhing. We take our friends and out of town guests there. The resturant is clean, friendly service, and we are greeted as we walk in. Try #11 it is so good. We would rather go out less and eat here . Yummy. read more
