Sadly, I will not be returning. The mac and cheese was a small portion for $3.99. The breadcrumbs were small seasoned croutons . The cup was half way filled. Then I got the brisket sandwich. That sandwich was not worth the $8 and change. The toppings were very skimpy. I will stick to 2m smokehouse if I want brisket. I should've stuck to my gut feeling and walked back out when I saw no costumers inside. read more

Pretty disappointed for a 12.00 meatball combo. This was the first time I've ever received it only warm not hot. No plastic ware was included with the "hot" sandwich and looks like they are getting stingier with the cheese. Before it was covered in cheese and sauce and this time it was almost sauceless and you could see the clear circles of not quite melted cheese slices. Not worth the cost if the new owners are going to do it like that. read more

I've never been one to crave a sub, because quite frankly if I want a sandwich I can make a pretty damn good one at home. But when compared to other subpar sub shops (Lenny's, Subway, etc.) Firehouse really hits the mark. My hot sandwich was just that, HOT, piping hot actually, even for a few minutes after it got to the table. I especially loved the pickle that accompanied the sub. I used a coupon and scored some free chips and a free drink. They have the Coca-Cola Freestyle soda dispenser, extra points there! The sub I tried was the smokehouse BBQ cheddar and my other half had the Firehouse hero, both done spectacularly and made with quality ingredients. The bread was the perfect amount of toasty and the cheese melted so picturesquely. I also liked how they had not one, not two, but about 20 different bottles of random hot sauces to use on your sub. My only complaint is they may want to consider cleaning the spouts off regularly since gunk tends to build up on them. Not a biggie, just one of the many details that restaurants sometimes tend to miss. Pricing was pretty reasonable, and you have the option to have half of the sandwich or the whole sandwich. The girl at the counter and the gentleman (he seemed like the owner) were very friendly and nice, and they encouraged us multiple times to come back again, which was very pleasant. We will be back soon and I want to put their "most delicious meatballs" claim to the test! read more

Gotta tell ya'll a little story here. I used to be a really big fan of Firehouse Subs. And by a really big fan, I mean I'd go through those phases where I'd eat there every day then be disgusted with myself, then go back a week later and throw in a brownie for a little more self-punishment aaaand yep, there I was, eating there every day again. Just a general cycle of self-destruction and disgust. All brought on by the deliciousness of Firehouse. Then I became a vegetarian. I avoided Firehouse at all costs. Why even bother? The brownies weren't THAT good. And it was kind of out of the way. Truth be told, I wanted to go inside just for the smell. So there it was, Halloween weekend of 2010. I was STARVING and I was on my way back from the Wal-Mart at DeZavala...and Firehouse wasn't that far...and surely they had tuna right? But then Firehouse did me one better. They had a veggie sandwich. Was it the cheapest thing on the menu? Yes. Was it the best danged veggie sandwich I've had in my short time in San Antonio? Yes. 5 stars Firehouse Subs. 5 stars. read more

The food is always delicious and made to order, the staff is always energetic and communicates with the customers, The atmosphere is just always great my favorite lunches and dinner spot!! Brisket and Cheddar Sub is my go to EVERY time. read more

This is my favorite sub place to go to during lunch. All of the employees are very friendly and patient in helping you pick the right sandwich for you. They have these random red buckets for sale in the back near the fountain drinks. I think I might buy one for no apparent reason at all. I love the selection of the different hot sauces, some of them (actually most of them) were pretty new to me, glad to have tried them out. They make hot sauces with ghost peppers in it, wow! Now if that doesn't tickle your taste buds, idk what will. All of the meats and cheeses they use tasted/appeared to be of good quality, and the chips are pretty standard no matter where you go. It's a bag of chips! Their cherry limeade was not all that great. When we went, someone who seemed like a franchise owner or management person was overseeing everything and he personally invited us to come back again, so everything ran very smoothly. We will definitely go back. read more

Most of the tables were dirty and it took a long time to be waited on and a long time to get my sandwich. The biggest size of drink was no longer offered. The tables aren't any farther thsn before. I think it's better to do pich up rather than eat read more

Love the freshness of the food. The staff is so friendly and helpful. They got my order right the first time and they were quick at getting it out. They provided great advise on what to get. Oh and they have great soups! Thank you to the staff of this location. read more

When we heard "Pulled pork and slaw over Kings Hawaiian Bread" and "melted bbq brisket smoked for 16hrs with Sweet Baby Ray's bbq sauce and melted cheddar"over the radio, we came right on over! We still love Jimmy John's but this place had a forte of its own. It did not disappoint at all. And the Soda fountain is one of those freestyle digital kiosk of 120 flavor combinations. We will definitely be back! :) read more

EXCELLENT. First time Blown away. Nothing more to say other than. Smoking hot sliced meats, Soft and warm bread. Great tasting sauce. Flawless service, Clean Restaurant, and I had great company that day.. I would open a franchise if I had the funds... read more

Ive been to Firehouses in 3 different states and one thing is for sure. They're all the same. I think that's a good thing. Subs are quality and the staff is okay. This location is in a good location and matches what's expected from this franchise. read more

LOVE, Love, love this place. My family goes there every week! The food is amazing. The Hook and Ladder sub is the best I've ever had anywhere - pricey sandwich shops included. If you like a little fire on your sub, they have LITERALLY dozens of brands and temperatures of hot sauce! Even my pickiest eater loves this place. The people are also very friendly. They always greet you when you come in, and remember you from one visit to the next. read more

We had Firehouse provide a catering for our business and the food and service was outstanding. I had never tried it before, my Tío had recommended me to stop by before. Really glad I had them cater. Looking forward to going by. read more

Our Smokehouse Beef & Cheddar Brisket are awesome!!!! Their staff was friendly. Their sub are better than the others. read more

In my regular go-to rotation, and with good reason. Not only is the food on point, but the staff is very consistent and learn their customers, faces, names, and orders :-) all in all one of the best locations for some (not fast food tasting) fast food :-). Turkey bacon ranch... Yum! read more

A great place to grab a hot sub during lunch. The prices are good, and their portions are plentiful. My big issue is that they steam their sandwiches to melt the cheese, etc, and it sometimes results in soggy bread. read more

Sandwich was very tasty and complementary to the bread. Service was good and store was clean. read more

Which wich sandwich are MUCH better! This place is over priced and the service was ok. Won't go back again.

I'm not a huge fan of sandwich places, but Firehouse Subs is the best I've had anywhere. Unlike some chains that toast their sandwiches, Firehouse steams their subs to give them a unique texture. I know that sounds a little weird, but the result really is delicious. I've tried most of the sandwiches on the menu and I've been very impressed with all of them. My favorites are the New York Steamer (corned beef, pastrami & provolone) and the Cheddar Brisket. My wife likes the Turkey Bacon Ranch, which is also an excellent sandwich. They offer a choice of white or wheat bread, both of which are very good. Firehouse Subs features the Coca-Cola Freestyle machine, which enables you to mix a custom soft drink. There's also a ridiculous selection of hot sauces on the counter if you're into that. Firehouse Subs puts the "no way" in Quiz-no and Sub-way. Check it out! read more

Delicious! Plenty of choices,decent prices for the amount of food you receive, & absolutely delicious! Service could have been more pleasant but I'm not going to complain. If you make the sub the right way & they keep tasting like that, I don't care if you're chipper or somber. read more

I ordered firehouse subs on grubhub around 2:00pm. It originally said it would be here at 3:00. Then it switched to 3:30. Then it switched to 4:30. There wasn't a driver assigned to the order so I just decided to cancel it at 3pm. I then get a call from a lady at 4 (after the order has been canceled for an hour) yelling at me saying they've already prepared the food and that there is someone there to pick it up. I informed her that I had canceled the order over an hour ago before there was even a driver assigned to the delivery and she continued to yell at me and hang up on me. I had already received a refund and everything. Not sure what she wanted me to do or if this was an issue with firehouse or grubhub but she was very rude and it was unnecessary for her to call me and start yelling at me. read more

Nope, texans don't know how to make subs. Stick to BBQ and ranch style beans. Italian sub drug through the garden, nothing explosive about this place. Cool pictures on the wall though. read more

Grabbed a hook and ladder to go. They placed a pickle within the wrapper lining and pickle juice soaked most of the sandwich making it a mess to eat. However for a soggy sandwich it was still really tasty! read more

They have very good vegetarian options too. There isn't a single menu item on here that is nothing less than fantastic. Steamed sandwiches with moist meats, veggies and bread. They are all made to order with no heat lamps (thank goodness). For a calorie counter like me, their website has a nutrition calculator which is perfect. Grab a sandwich combo and support your local heroes! read more

Showed at 7:20pm and door was locked.... open sign was on but no one was inside. Hours said open till 9pm.

Great experience here! First time and we had great suggestions on subs. We got the firehouse "hero" sub. Made perfectly! Very affordable for a huge sandwich($9)! The staff suggested we tried some sauces and they were great. Very friendly staff and clean area to eat. Will be back! read more

I will NEVER return to this location on Babcock & Huebner. They have the worst customer service ever and definitely need to train their managers and employees on their customer service skills. It was the fist time me & my grandson decided to stop in since moving into the Medical Center area. I had read some great reviews about Firehouse Subs. Well in this instance, that was not the case! First, my grandsons grilled cheese was way under-cooked and he did not want it.(It looked like a slice of cheese melted between white bread) When I went up to have it fixed and have meat added to it, the manager (Miranda)said I would have to pay for them to make a whole new sandwich! (Mind you THE KIDS MEAL WAS FREE TODAY WITH PURCHASE OF ADULT MEAL!) I said "you have got to be kidding me right?" She said "yes, I am very serious, I have food cost and I'm not paying for your grandsons mistake!" This blew my fricken mind! I asked if there was someone above her I could speak with? She smiled and rudely said "No, I AM the manager of this store"....I then asked for her name & store # & she blatantly said, "it's printed on your reciept." Needless to say, I was so upset and almost in tears from embarrassment. I told my grandson to gather his things and we just left. I have never been talked to so rudely in any establishment and made to feel like I had did something wrong or that my grandson was to blame! Firehouse should really put a system together where you train your managers & employees to be courteous and make their customers feel appreciated! read more

Firehouse Subs - Not happy with this location.Horrible customer service. grandsons grilled cheese way undercooked. Mnger Miranda wanted me to pay to fix it! - Delis Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Truly a wonderful go to location for lunch. I always enjoy my food - Turkey, Bacon Ranch Sub. :) Everyone makes you feel welcomed and will greet you by your first name. That is a nice personal touch, and they will check on you throughout your visit. The overall escape from the office experience is perfect here at Firehouse. read more

The food is delish! BUT I ordered a water and they gave me a tinny tiny water cup and I asked for a regular sized cup which seemed to be a big deal. The guy actually had to ask the manager! Then my hubby showed his military ID and the cashier said he had to be a uniform. Silly rules ruined it. read more

Great delicious food , super nice staff . They are very welcoming , some of them even memorizing customers previous orders as I waited here . Which wasn't long of a wait either read more

If I could give more stars, I would! This place was awesome! We had a large order this morning that needed to be ready 15 minutes after they opened. They had all the order ready right on time and everything was labeled easily so we didn't have to go rumbling through the sandwiches to figure out whose was whose. THANK YOU!!!! read more

I love their sandwiches. I would marry the New York Steamer if I could. Did I just say that? Yes I did and I don't care. The New York Steamer is loaded with Corned Beef Brisket and Pastrami and served hot with Provolone, Mayo, Mustard and Italian Dressing. It's just a perfect sandwich that is melt in your mouth delicious. I've had most of their sandwiches and they are all tasty, but the NYS is my fav!! The only reason I give this location four stars is because the service isn't always the friendliest or fastest. Side note: my Firehouse Subs cherry was popped in late 2002 in Jacksonville, Florida; the birthplace of this fine sub shop. I was soooo excited, as was my belly, when Firehouse Subs came to the Alamo City. I just wish there were more locations in San Antonio. read more

By providing all the necessities with a little bit of flare, firehouse has managed to produce a product that despite being a franchise still has some personality. The warm welcome and quick service are key and they have nailed it. read more

Firehouse Subs is so good! I'm here with my boyfriend and it's his first time, he got the meatball sub and loved it, it came out so hot & fresh and beautifully seasoned with an awesome presentation and toasted to perfection. I ordered my usual cold tuna sub that came out excellent. They even had our favorite chips, Ruffles sour cream n cheddar & they have the best bread!! Beth was very helpful, fast, attentive, professional and informative, this definitely won't be our last time. Thank you! read more

Order was missing chili via Grubhub app; but the GM --Gina, did a great job at taking ownership and making up for the oversight. Great food, great friendly staff read more

I love firehouse subs! This location is always friendly and helpful, and they have a great soda machine (I love rootbeer!). I love that they steam the meat so it is always warm and tasty - I usually order the hook and ladder light which is the perfect sized sandwich! I even have asked them to steam it extra to make sure its hot and they are very accommodating. My only complaint is the shredded iceberg lettuce they use, but no big deal, the sandwiches are still great. read more
