Firehouse Subs

It wasn't as good as the last time I had it. I was very disappointed. I think it would be best to stay with Lenoir City when I come to visit. Athens wasn't as fresh. The entire sub was just blah. Staff was friendly for the most part. Tables were dirty. I was just disappointed. I love Firehouse Subs as a whole but was not impressed with this one. 3 subs that the bread was so hard, we had to pick through the subs Athens is not one of the locations I would recommend.

I don't live in Athens but am there frequently. Yesterday I was in the mood for a firehouse brisket sub. I got there between 4:30 and 5pm. No one in line and only 1 couple in the whole place. I ordered my sandwich that comes with mayo, cheese, BBQ sauce and brisket, I added onions. The lady working the counter Brianna very nice and professional. I had no reason to doubt my order. She even pointed out that the price had increased. I don't mind paying if I get what I order. The second person Savanah ask if I wanted my pickle, I answered yes please. I was disappointed when I got home I live probably 20 miles away. My sandwich had nothing on it but brisket and BBQ sauce, plus no pickle. We all have bad days and I understand when your overwhelmed but as I mentioned it was slow. I personally feel like I wasted 20.00. Lesson learned.

I'm so glad they've added the gluten free bread so I can eat here again. The wife and I got the steak and cheese and it was cooked perfectly. We took a chance since a different location undercooked the peppers earlier this week. Everything was perfect including the bowl of chili. We ate inside and everything was very clean. We'll definitely go back to this location again when in the area.
