I love firehouse subs and get it a few times a week. I went into the Arcadia location today and it was very poorly managed. I waited for ten minutes before anyone acknowledged I was there. With only a few people in the restaurant, my one sandwich took over 40 min. They have bread sitting in the toaster getting burnt instead of removing them and still used it. My sandwich was rock hard.I’d try to avoid this location if possible.

Table was filthy. I ordered a turkey sandwich and got Italian? Covered with mayo, it was not edible. Soda machines had nothing for someone that can't have caffeine or carbonation. At least I got a refund for my small drink.

I come to firehouse pretty often and I am always pleased with the service and food. I just went in to order a sub at the Arcadia Plaza location and was treated as if I wasn’t there. I was ignored for about 5 minutes before anyone even looked over to then finally ask if I’m ready to order. The girl taking my order acted as if I was inconveniencing her by bringing my business to her place of work. The screen asked for a tip and I obviously declined. I’m sure this decision I made by not tipping made the experience with my food lackluster. I grabbed by food and said thank you with no reply back. I checked my sub and see that it was drenched in mayo and there was about 5 olives and pickles all in one spot on the entire sandwich. I also asked for it cold and of course it was hot. The lack of attention or care from the employees was disheartening as I really enjoy Firehouse as a whole. I did not catch the names of the 3 girls but one had bright pink hair with piercing and the other had dark blonde hair with nose piercings as well. Just overall not a great look for the company as they seemed very standoffish and made me uncomfortable. I will no longer be going to this location.

Not sure what it is about this place but every time I go here I’m pleasantly surprised. The food is so good and the workers are very friendly and hard working. Anthony helped me out tonight he definitely deserves a raise and at the very least to be appreciated by any higher ups!
: Disappointing Experience at Firehouse subs on 28th street and Indian School Rd. In Phoenix, ArizonaDear Firehouse AdministratorI hope this email finds you well. I am writing to you as a long-standing patron of Firehouse Subs who has always held your establishment in high regard. However, my recent experience compels me to share some concerns.I have visited your restaurant numerous times and have consistently enjoyed the food and service. This time, unfortunately, the experience was markedly different. We ordered through the online app for convenience. Upon pickup, I noticed a certain level of disorganization among the staff, which was somewhat disconcerting.The real issue arose when we reached home, a 20-minute drive away, and discovered that two out of our three sandwiches were incorrect, with all the toppings being wrong as well. Additionally, our order was missing two beverages and a bag of chips. Given the situation, I called the restaurant to express my disappointment and to seek a resolution.This is where my experience took a turn for the worse. The on-duty manager, Serena, was, to put it mildly, unprofessional and offensive. Her approach was aggressive, defensive, and she continuously justified the errors without showing any willingness to listen or empathize. When I requested a refund, Serena insisted that I return to the restaurant in person. I explained the impracticality of this demand, considering the distance, but was met with further hostility. Serena raised her voice, spoke over me, and demanded that I listen to her, showcasing a concerning need for validation over customer service.As a customer, it's disheartening to witness such a lack of professionalism and emotional intelligence, especially from a managerial position. This experience has not only left a bad taste in my mouth but also significantly tarnished my perception of your establishment.I believe in constructive feedback and hope this incident will be an opportunity for staff training and improvement in customer service. I regret to inform you that I will be sharing this experience in my online reviews, focusing not only on the quality of the food but also on the customer service, particularly highlighting my interaction with Serena.I trust you will take this feedback seriously and take necessary steps to ensure such incidents are not repeated. Your restaurant has always been a favorite, and I would like to see it regain the high standard it previously upheld. Until that is the case, we will not be returning to the restaurant, nor recommending a return visit to anybody else.Sincerely,Aaron

The manager McKenzie happened to be working both times this week when I made an order through my Uber eats app and had the worst customer service I’ve experienced with her smiling and laughing in my face.The first time I ordered the deal Uber eats was offering of buy a sub get one free to be delivered. I ordered two and was supposed to get two free. Instead I was told after waiting over an hour and a half that someone already picked it up and I ended up having to buy dinner elsewhere after nearly 2 hours waiting. The manager assured me they checked for each pickup to confirm the correct order was picked up… Fast forward a couple days and my little ones still want subs since we didn’t get to enjoy the ones we originally ordered the two days prior. I decided to give them another chance since the deal was still going on but this time I went to pickup my order myself so there should be no issues.. well GO FIGURE! I show up, walk in and am hardly even acknowledged. They quickly rushed me over to the pickup rack (in the front of the store outside of their counter space) without checking/confirming any order details and to my surprise, my order was GONE!! Again!! The lack of organization for pick up orders is a disgrace and shame on you for laughing in my face, treating me like I was the one who messed up and not owning up to your negligence of your pickup process. As if I’m the one inconveniencing you guys to simply do your job, especially after you guys are the ones that messed up my order twice in a row in a matter of days.I have never had these issues with any other firehouse I’ve visited from any other city but this one. I’ll be calling corporate to file an official complaint on this location asap!Like the others here who warned you, if you’re in this area you will be so much better off getting a fresh sandwich from sprouts.

No one here has any urgency. A tremendous amount of wait time even when it's only you waiting for a sandwich. I've tried to order ahead and I still have to wait when I go in to pick it up.Waited 30 minutes for a pick up. Tall guy with glasses needs to pick his eyes up from the floor and learn to run the store.
Clean and good food. Staff nice.
