Firehouse Subs
The family was out and about last week and we were looking for somewhere to grab a quick bite to eat. We kicked around some of our cheap and faithful standbys, then dabbled into our more expensive and faithful standbys, when we ran across Firehouse Subs in Woodstock, GA on 92. We decided to be adventurous, as we often are. Boy are we glad we did!
The restaurant is just your basic sandwich stand, much like a Subway or Blimpies. You go in and order from a variety of made-to-order sandwiches. Once the food is ready, they bring it to your table. We ordered two combos, one for me and one for the wife, and one kid’s meal for the munchkin. The total came to just shy of $20.00 and the food was excellent!
I ordered the New York Steamer®. With my favorite corned beef brisket and pastrami, this was an instant hit. Heated and melted with provolone and mayo, mustard and Italian dressing. The wife ordered the Firehouse Meatball™. With plenty of hot meatballs, marinara sauce and provolone, she was quite pleased. The munchkin got the Kid’s Grilled Cheese, his favorite when available. It came with a drink and a couple of Oreos®.
The wife and I shared our sandwiches. They were the medium size, 8″ subs, which were the perfect size. With the combo came a bag of chips and a 16 ounce drink. We threw in a chocolate chip cookie for good measure. Now, this was fast and fresh done right. Sure the chips were bagged, but when you go to a sandwich shop, that’s what you expect. I didn’t see anything I would change. There were multiple bottles of hot sauce available for those who so choose. I tried an Irish hot sauce which added an interesting fire to the sandwiches.
If you are in the mood for a sub and there is a Firehouse nearby, check them out. They are definitely worth it!
