Hands down a big fan of Firehouse Subs. The bread is so soft, they have a great selection of toppings and sides and drinks. Everything always tastes so fresh. But this location specifically, is always on top of their game! I typically order online and always have at least one note per order and it is always 100% correct. In addition, their staff is super friendly and orders are usually ready early. And not to mention, I love how on top of COVID-19 procedures they are. read more

I've now had two disappointing visits to this Firehouse Subs location in Rocky River, and both were with the same crew--two young men who seem completely disengaged from the customer experience. No greeting, no "Welcome to Firehouse," no smile, no acknowledgment--just silence and disinterest. It honestly felt like I was inconveniencing them by showing up. During my most recent visit, the ice machine was broken. One of the employees stood nearby texting on his phone. Hopefully, he was reporting the issue--but I doubt it. There was no heads-up, no courtesy mention at the register that there'd be no ice for beverages like "iced" tea, soda, or lemonade. You just found out after you ordered. On a previous visit, there was no tea available at all. Yes, my sandwich was fine. It had all the ingredients (though I didn't get the pickle I was offered). But that should be the bare minimum, not the high point. We should expect more--especially from a brand like Firehouse that prides itself on service and community. I genuinely tried to share this feedback privately through the Firehouse Subs website, but their customer service portal locked up. That's frustrating--and why I'm posting here instead. I'd have preferred to keep this between me and the company, but they didn't make that possible. To be clear: I'm not trying to shame these young workers. I hope someone trains and mentors them. But being on your phone during a shift, ignoring customers, and offering zero hospitality is not how you build a strong team or a loyal customer base. Rocky River deserves better. And Firehouse Subs should expect better. read more

The service is usually ok. Some employees clearly don't want to be there and it feels dead a lot of times. The sandwiches are always good though! I love the Italian one. And the hot sauce bar is a cool little idea. I also love any place with a Coke Freestyle machine. read more

The sandwiches are good, but the staff is simply not nice. I've gone back a couple of times now and it's almost like the team is taught to be hostile towards guests. I understand having a job you don't like or just having a bad day, but there's no need to take it out on the random people picking up dinner. read more

The ham looked lacking on my sandwich. However, I weighed it out & it came to 4.7oz. Looks like not much visually on a regular sub. Skinny. Ain't worth the $9.79 dollars. I got the mac&cheeese. A whole 5.7 oz for $5.59. Container 1/2 full. Juice ain't worth the squeeze do more! It's a fast-food apocalypse on quality& value everywhere now a days . read more

We just had 2 large NY steamer subs. They tasted ok. It was more like a bread sandwich than a sub. The meat was very skimpy, especially for a large and at a cost of &15.00. A similar sub at Penn Station would have significantly more meat and fillings. I would not go back. I have to also note that I've had these subs before a few years ago in Florida and they had much more meat and seemed like a better value. Definitely not good value for the price. I also ordered the subs online with white bread but instead the subs were made with wheat. Also, the pictures of the subs on yelp do not accurately represent the subs. read more

Food good, extremely clean, service was excellent! The Mgr./owner greets you, remembers your name. I rarely experience this excellent type of customer service. Gives me faith in businesses. Five thumbs up!!!! read more

Free sub on Tax Day! I Love the IRS... Irresistible Robust Subs!! I got a huge refund and a huge Pastrami Rueben today. Could be the very tastiest Firehouse sub I've had.. oozing w/ juices, Swiss & coleslaw drippings! I itemized my deductions but they didn't deduct 1 item from my sub - got all the toppings. So don't forget to claim your Charitable Donations on ur 1040 and claim Firehouse's charitable portions! Not to mention they do a lot of donating themselves. read more

I ordered a tuna sub online Monday 9-19-22 late at night. My online order was ready right when I came in. This location has always been clean and well staffed. Firehouse Subs was founded by fireman. The chain goes above and beyond in giving back through charity. read more

I don't usually do chain stuff, but I was really impressed with Firehouse Subs. The food was fresh and tasty, the staff was on the ball, and as an Ex-Emergency Services worker, I appreciate the company's approach to helping local fire departments with donations. Our sandwiches were really good, the prices were decent, and the place presented a really nice atmosphere. Overall, We really loved the RR Firehouse (subs, that is:) read more

What can you say about Firehouse Subs, one its a chain restaurant. Two the best Sub shop ever, better than, Blimpies, Subway, and Quiznos, hands down. Great variety of signature Firehouse Subs, plus a create your own. They also have a small sub deal with one of 4 sides for $8, I believe thats the proper price point. Not only all the greatness you can ask for in a sub, but some of the proceeds go to help the firefighters for equipment. read more

Yes!!! I am so happy this is open!! My husband and I love Firehouse, so when I was driving by and saw the sign saying there was a Firehouse in RR, I nearly lost it! After moving from Columbus to west CLE two years ago, one big thing we were still missing was Firehouse Subs. And now, we have it! Everyone here is so nice and welcoming, the food is delicious, and the restaurant clean. My husband loves the spicy meatball sub, and I'm more of a Hook and Ladder fan. I'm not sure what it is, but their ham here is freaking delicious! It's perfectly sweet and juicy. Truthfully, all of their meat is really good, and I love their warm and toasty bread. If you want a delicious hot sub, I HIGHLY recommend trying Firehouse! read more

Just noticed this place the other day and since it is close to my house my guest and I decided to walk to it with the thought being that we might burn off some of the delicious calorie load we were about to take in. Neither of us had heard of Firehouse Subs before so we were curious, but no disappointments here! The food: Firehouse Steak & Cheese $6.99 (steak, cheese, peppers and onions) Engineer $6.69 (Turkey, swiss, grilled mushrooms) We both went with medium hot subs under $7 and decided to forgo any sides or desserts (although the cookies look really good). I want to say the mediums are 8 inches long which is a pretty good sized sub. We both really enjoyed our subs a lot! Very tasty and filling. The theme is firehouse stuff if that wasn't obvious. One weird bit of decor though was huge painting with a kangaroo off to the side. Apparently the owner is from Australia. Only negatives would be that everyone greets you loudly at once when you walk in. Comes across a bit forced and not so genuine as one simple direct smile and hello would. Also I think the subs take a little longer than other seasoned subs shops, but this could be because the place is new and still training/working out the kinks. Lastly it's a sub shop so not a ton of variety, but will satisfy you if you're in the mood for deli meat on a big bun. All in all I would definitely come here again! Nice competition for Jersey Mike's and Penn Station. read more

Their sandwiches are so good, the staff is great the place is clean. The only thing is they stopped taking cash so make sure u have a card handy, their sandwiches no matter what size you choose are very filling of course my favorite is The New Yorker read more

The Firehouse Subs chain is by far my favorite sub shop. They give back to local fire fighters, sell 5 gallon buckets that were used for pickling super cheap, and consistently have the best subs around. They have large selection of subs in sizes ranging from standard to enormous and you can modify the toppings as you wish. There is something for everyone here. The only negative, if you can call it that is that, is that it takes a few minutes to have you sub cooked. This location in particular has super friendly staff that go above and beyond making you feel welcome, and is right beside the grocery store which is a huge a plus for me! read more

This would be a score of zero if I could give that score, the food is a five but the boys that work here are absolutely awful at this job. I ask for wheat bread and I get plain and then I told them I wanted a pickle with my sub and my girlfriend's sub with an extra pickle as well and only got 1 pickle total. I have never had an issue with the service until these childish boys that didn't even know how to use the register took my order. Every other time I have been serviced there have been nice ladies that take the time and care about everyone's order and pays attention to what the customer ordered and deserves a raise. If any boys make my sub I will be checking my order every time because the quality of service they provided is uncalled for and however they were trained I would keep a closer eye on what is actually ordered. For all Firehouse Sub lovers, check before you leave cause they don't take the time too care. read more

This place is horrible!!! Purchased the Italian sub, it was thrown together and had very little veggies. Next I got the Mac and cheese, which was the worst Mac and cheese I have ever eaten. White soupy substance that tasted like bleach. Never again will I eat at firehouse subs read more

Just left the North Olmsted location and couldn't get on to review fast enough! AMAZING!!! I had the Smokehouse Brisket. The bread was fresh, the brisket was cooked PERFECTLY (very tender), overall flavor was phenomenal. Coming from managing and opening new restaurants I know the work it takes to make the establishment successful. Keep up the great work! read more

Very good spicy meatball sub sand which hit the spot and love the service owner is top notch

1st time eating a sub from here. They did not disappoint. The bread and the beef were fresh. I will be backback.

Fast, fresh, and Fantastic. Yep I'm a fan. Plus the workers there on Black Friday did not stop cleaning the whole time we ate there. I mean ya'll got some great workers Firehouse! I really like their warm subs! Edit - addressing the portion sizes to the price comments people have made. Yes, you are not getting a gigantic sub, but you're getting fresh food that's really good. You get what you pay for. read more

I was questioned and humiliated by a senior team member when my order was stolen from the Online Orders shelf this evening; this is after I showed another team member the emailed receipt. Instead of simply remaking the order, the senior team member decided to question me further and make excuses. He asked if I had someone else pick it up (obviously I didn't). Then he said they don't card people when they pick up online orders from the shelf, and that it had never happened before (which I find rather hard to believe as online orders being stolen from pick-up shelves is a common issue). Regardless, neither of those things needed to be pointed out. He was flippant, dismissive, and unkind. He made me stand there defending my purchase until I began to think he had no intention of fulfilling the order. I questioningly said, "So are you not going to fulfill the order; that would be very poor customer service." He snapped back, "you said that, I didn't say that." I responded that it didn't seem like he was going to fulfill the order the way he was questioning me and making excuses. Some customers walked in, so I guess he decided to do the thing he should've done immediately. He said in an unkind tone (like he was doing me some sort of favor), "I will remake the order." I simply said, "thank you" and had to wait another 20 minutes for the order. It was a horrendous experience. I was shocked because I've ordered from there many times without an issue and generally friendly staff; this guy (who I think is likely a manager) treated me in a disgraceful manner. read more

Idc what the other reviews say this place is amazing. Delicious. So good. Love it. Need to add more words to get this to post bc that's what Yelp requires so hopefully this is enough read more

We love their subs! At other sub shops, I tend to stick to the same menu items because there are subs I dislike. At Firehouse, I always order something different because (other than a meatball sub clearly marked "hot and spicy") I have not had any sandwich that wasn't delicious. I use online ordering, and the subs have always been ready at the time I requested. The staff is helpful, and when I go through the line to add a drink or an extra cookie, they serve me promptly. read more

We are excited to have a Firehouse on the west side of Cleveland. We moved from Charlotte, NC a few years ago and had a few locations close by the house. Can't wait to include this location into my lunch and dinner routine. Hook n ladder is a must try. read more

My Wife and I ordered sandwiches on grub hub. I ordered the Turkey bacon Ranch sub and when I received my sandwich there wasn't 1 slice of Turkey on the sandwich. I tried to contact the restaurant but nobody answered the phone. I will never order through grub hub again. read more

Orders being made incorrectly with no resolution. Told to come back to the store for a refund, even though this was an Uber eats order (twice). I typically love their food but they must not be training new staff on what goes on each sandwich. read more

Absolutely loved be this sub shop. The meats are fresh and so full of flavor. My first was a pastrami Reuben. I couldnt wait till I had another. First was a small. Second was a medium pastrami Reuben. Today I ordered the hook and ladder salad. The salad was so fresh. This will be my go to for fast food. read more

Don't get me wrong....I thought my sandwich was really tasty; there just wasn't very much of it. Since this was my first visit, we kept our order pretty basic save for a total burn. The price was the real indignity for the puny portion. For two people to get descent size sandwiches and not walk away hungry will set you back nearly 20 large for a combo that includes a drink and a bag of CHIPS! I could have gotten TWO pizzas from Pizza Hut for that price AND had leftovers. They suggest you "round your change up" for a noble cause benefiting firemen. Considering the egregious pricing and lack of economy for the buck, that seemed awfully presumptuous. So there were two losers on this visit. Again, my order was quite delicious, but I remember a chain called Quiznos that suffered the same fate of tiny portions for unrealistic pricing. I know that I would enjoy this place if I just wanted a taste treat and wasn't very hungry or just had cash burning a hole in my pocket. I'd have to lobby hard to my sig other for a return trip, but I think I'll save that play for another place we've never tried hopefully finding a new favorite among favorites. read more

Tonight was the first of many more visits! Everybody said welcome when we walked in... (it's nice to be acknowledged... reminiscent of Waffle House). I built my own sub with corned beef and all the regular fixings (except mustard). Served warm, I was impressed that the bread wasn't too crunchy that it hurt to eat it. My husband enjoyed his Italian sub with the same bread comment as mine. We chose brownies for dessert... delicious! We dined there, appreciating the decor, which was different and interesting... We enjoyed our supper and, like I said before, we'll be back! read more

Not a great experience. Ate in this Friday and our wait time after ordering was 15 minutes to get our food which was mediocre. Got the meatball sub which tasted like frozen meatballs. read more

Great change of pace. This sub place is decent. Clean and new. Servers are energetic. Sub combinations are many. You are certain to find your own combination. read more

We decided to enjoy a day on the west side and looked up a place to eat a good sub before heading to edgewater. We both ordered the Engineer, and LOVED it. Of course we added things to our taste like banana peppers and my boyfriend (the one with tastebuds that require a kick) had jalapeños added. I like the option for a small medium or large sub with the medium being 8 inches, which is great when my appetite wants more than a 6 inch sub. read more

I am sorry to write a negative review after reading others who love the place. I have been home for a week with a cold/flu or something else and meals have been a chore so when my SO called and suggested a sandwich from Firehouse, across from her office, I was surprised as we don't often eat take out subs. In fact, never. I got the Italian on whole wheat. It was wet. Not from sauce. Just wet. The ingredients were wet. Like taking frozen salad and defrosting it wet. Never again. read more

Manager working could care less about the customer. Ordered and paid for a combo, was not given a receipt or even asked for a receipt. Walked away and realized manager had not given me a cup with the combo i ordered. I go back and wait in line and explain that i just ordered and had a combo but was not given a drink. Instead of apologizing, or just outright offering a drink, manager put off an accusatory tone and stated that she could not help me unless i had a receipt. Needless to say i will not be back at this location. Its a shame how much one poorly trained manager can effect a resturaunt. read more

I had a terrible experience at the Rocky River location yesterday, which will prevent me from returning. I placed an order using their app, and when I arrived at the store, the clerk told me that the payment hadn't gone through. When I placed the order, though, I received a response from the app saying that it was paid for. I also received an e-mail indicating I had paid. The clerk was insistent, so I reluctantly paid a second time. Firehouse sent me a survey asking if I was satisfied, and, for obvious reasons after the terrible customer service and the uncertainty as to whether or not I had paid twice, I let them know that I was not satisfied. I then received an e-mail from the store's manager informing me that "My crew member did handle this correctly as she has no control over the process." Look I get that computers don't always work perfectly. However, if a shop's system fails, I expect the store to shoulder the burden of that failure, not the customer. read more
