Sandwich Shops near Durant

“When I visited on Saturday, I didn't expect the side of kidness served with our delicious lunch but wanted to share my experience. Below is my post from my own page detailing the kind of folks we have here owning and staffing our local Firehouse Subs. Highly recommend for a fast, but delicious lunch or dinner, impressive decor and wonderful, caring service. Thanks to the Pruitt family, Tessa and staff for the experience. You're setting a standard that sets you, your staff and shop head and shoulders above any others! Original post 12/19/20: ---Running around town this morning/afternoon on Christmas countdown duty and stopped by Firehouse Subs to pick up some lunch for myself, my oldest, Brendon and my dad. So for those of you that haven't been inside or to your local neighborhood Firehouse Subs shop, they decorate their dining area inside with photos and murals etc. of your local station houses and Firemen through the years from your area showing them in action doing the heroic work they're known for. Our Durant shop has some very special memorabilia and the hand painted mural of DHS's class of '89 classmate and Chief Warrant Officer Brady Rudolf with 2 local Policemen, and a couple of our Lion mascots, all standing in front of Brady's memorial in front of Durant High School, is worth your visit alone! But back to my other piece of the story.....So as I waited for the sandwiches, I had to make a quick trip to the powder room from running everywhere with no breaking all morning and after one giant D.P. Having never used their "facilities" there before located in the back of the shop, I had no idea about or had ever seen the framed vintage photos of the Department through the years that line the hallway to the restrooms. I was tickled pink to see this photo immediately, showing my Grandfather (blue) and Great Uncle Lawrence (red). Our family is of course proud that my Pappa Bill was once the Department Chief of Durant. Unfortunately though, the only remaining copies we have of these bits of our family history are so faded and worn that they now need restoration work. And with that thought, the 'ol lightbulb upstairs flickered some 😆 but finally lit up and I grabbed an employee up front. As I drug her away from her work, I explained that these were my relatives and it would make my day to find out where they had the copies of those pictures made so I could also have several made for my surviving uncles and cousins for Christmas. She was so sweet but had no idea where they came from and I expected that she probably wouldn't. But then she says..."Let me call my owner and see if he has that information." I tried to just wave it all off by telling her not to trouble herself, that they were busy and I could call about it later on some other day. But I think she understood what this picture meant to me and mine and put herself in my place because she seemed to be on such a cheerfully determined mission, insisting that I was no trouble at all as she dissappeared into the back office. So I waited just a little while studying up close at my Pappa Bill and this little piece of Durant's and my family's history. It was emotional enough before I heard her open the office door and I turned around to see her coming to me and holding a pristene, poster quality 16×20 copy of the photo. "I called my owner." she said, "He told me to tell you we just happened to still have this one." And as she hands it to me she says, "He wants you to have it and told me to tell you 'Merry Christmas to you and your family'." I was speechless because I thought she was just going to lay it on a table and let me look at the detail I'd never before seen in our family's much smaller, faded and aged photograph, or that she might let me take a picture of it with my phone. Never expected such a simple but incredibly thoughtful gesture when all I'd done for them was to interrupt them as they were going about their job“

“I was there on 02/16, and my experience was great! The person working was training a new employee. There was a person before me, and 2 people after me. They made a perfect sandwich, and we were all visiting, laughing, and genuinely having a nice experience. I'll will go to this particular address again. Thanx 😊“

“So I come here at least once every weekend & It has always been SO good. The sweet tea is always good and fresh to which is a huge plus to me. The only reason I don't give it a 5 star is because sometimes it's so messy when I bite into it vegetables fall out EVERYWHERE, but hey still good!“

“Had issues ordering online. For the life of me I can't remember the young lady's name, but she answered the phone there and was trying everything to help me. That's the first person to answer the phone there out of the four times. I did get to order online. The sandwiches tasted great. She knew who I was and was all smiles and happy I was able to order online since I get gift cards and merge them on my app for subway.“

“Convenient location, friendly staff at this truck stop.

Vegetarian options: My usual order is a salad with olives, cucumber,olive oil, tomato, chopped lettuce

Kid-friendliness: My kids are grown now, but they have fond memories about long road trips and foot long subs“
