I have been here in the past but this last visit was my wifes first time. She was not impressed and with good reason. The staff seemed more interested in flirting with one another than doing their job and as a result my wifes sandwich was messed up and not what was ordered. My daughter had to ask for part of our order since no one was paying attention. All in all it is great sandwiches but when you hire kids you need to keep an adult on site to keep them on track. On the upside I did get my boots mopped...or is that a bad thing?

Never eating here again. Use to love coming here. Floors are very dirty one young man doing everything. At least 6 workers and everyone is goofing off, you can hear things being dropped. Over heard the other young man working saying he didnt see something on my order. Not sure what it was but lady almost walked over here then she saw me looking at her and she walked away. Im Hoping I dont get sick now from my food. Also two girls arguring over who was going to check us out. There was no line and took 20 minutes to get our food.

Seems like I had a completely different experience, the atmosphere was inviting, we had the manager give about a 30 second run-down how the whole terminology linked to the food, a lot of options to choose from! They got both myself and Fiance subs perfect, time of day may have been a factor, we went there at noon on a Friday. I was just in love with their ingredients and presentation, I usually go to Jimmy Johns for a sub/sandwich but if Im ever in the area Im going to Firehouse Subs now!

2nd time here, probably the last. *No soap in bathroom *No paper towels in bathroom *No ICE (unacceptable) *20 minutes for food - no line. I see a lot of employees goofing around and talking behind the counter, yet nobody has the bright idea of checking if there is ice in the fountain machine or if the bathrooms are equipped. Worked in the food industry for 5 years and these are things you do not miss.

First time I tried Firehouse Subs was when I was stationed in Mississippi and loved their food. To find that they are here in Cedar Rapids now is amazing! The food is still just as good and the fact that they also keep our service members (P.D., fire, paramedic, military) in focus with a donation and discount program is fantastic. I recommend this place of business to everyone.

Great selection of sandwiches, though the service is a little slow, and sometimes you might need to flag someone down just to be noticed. Place is very clean though and has a cool firefighter theme. And if you dine in, theres an excellent selection of hot sauces, plus they have my favorite pop in their fountain drink machine: cherry vanilla Dr. Pepper. :)

This location has gone down hill. There was a long wait for our food. The floors and tables were beyond dirty. Had to move down 3 tables until we found a semi-clean one. Seemed that only one person was actually working while the rest where standing around the majority of the time. The food wasnt bad. Its just not what it used to be unfortunately.

First timer! Delicious food. Friendly staff. John and Dan K. were very awesome as well as the rest of the staff. I was impressed how much care John put into his place, his employees and customers. It was nice to watch his interactions with his staff. Each person that helped us was great! I was impressed We will be back! Definitely recommend!

Fun LITTLE bar. The service is always great. Saturday afternoon from about 4:00 to 8:00 they have an open jam session. The music tends towards the blues/rock and does vary with the quality of the drop by talent. But it is always fun. The tunes tend to be better toward the end or is that the alcohol listening?

In the past, ive really liked Firehouse Subs... However, recently their sandwiches have been upsetting my stomach. Anything with Roast Beef to be precise. Ive tried the same sandwiches at the Edgewood location and no stomach issues. Coincidence? Nope

I had the Smokehouse Beef & Chedder Brisket. It was insane! Ive never had a sandwich melt in my mouth before. It was perfectly prepared, hot and delicious! Dan was great, but the whole crew was friendly and helpful. We will be back again soon.

I went in not knowing what to expect, never heard of it before. Now it has definitely taken the spot of my favorite sub place. Theres lots of different options and they have a huge collection of hot sauces at the counter.

Atmosphere compensates for poor food quality. State of the art soda machine, delicious pickles and cookie. The sandwiches themselves were soggy, and not what we ordered...sorry to say that we will not be returning

Dude.... no. We walk in and it looks like the last time this place was cleaned was June or something. Food and crumbs literally everywhere. Chairs and tables were sticky and gross.... just not coming back. No.

I walked in and state that Ive never been here before. An employee behind the counter said, "aww dude, its awesome!" And then recommended a sandwich. He was right! Thanks guys for a great meal!

We won a contest on the radio for a catered party. Subs were boring with limited toppings. I have heard this place is good though. Maybe if you go there and get a specialty sub.

Absolutely delicious subs. Dont know how Subway stays in business. The Italian sub is my favorite, though the Steak & Cheese is also fantastic.

It really wasnt our usual visit. It was a bit slower but the help wasnt very attentive and our order wasnt correct.
