Every sandwich on the Firehouse Subs menu is crafted around generous meat portions, premium cheeses, and our signature steaming process. From our legendary Hook & Ladder to slow-smoked brisket and loaded Italian meatballs, our hot subs are assembled fresh to order on your choice of toasted bread. Browse our full lineup below, including classic cold subs, chopped salads, kid-friendly combos, and hearty sides.
Our hot specialty subs represent the core of our kitchen. Sandwiches like the Firehouse Meatball, Smokehouse Beef Brisket, and New York Steamer are stacked with meats steamed to order under provolone, cheddar, or Swiss cheese. The Engineer sub combines smoked turkey breast with melted Swiss and sautéed mushrooms, while the Club on a Sub loads smoked turkey, honey ham, crispy bacon, and melted Monterey Jack. Each recipe has been refined to ensure balanced seasoning and reliable temperatures from the first bite to the last.

The secret to our distinctive flavor lies in the quality of our proteins. We use high-grade beef, lean turkey breast, savory ham, and USDA choice cuts that respond well to commercial steam heating. As steam circulates around each portion, the natural fats render slightly, infusing the melted cheese directly into the folds of the meat. This avoids the tough, leathery edges that often result from standard microwave warming or excessive dry-oven toasting.
Rather than scorching the bread or drying out sliced deli cold cuts under hot radiating coils, our kitchen places portions inside commercial steam units. Pressurized moisture circulates around each slice, bringing proteins to optimal serving temperatures while preserving succulence and texture.
Our recipes begin with premium whole-muscle meats: lean smoked turkey breast, cured pastrami, Virginia honey ham, and hickory-smoked brisket. Sliced fresh throughout the operational day, these meats absorb heat evenly and hold their structural integrity inside hearty submarine rolls.
Cheese slices—provolone, sharp cheddar, Swiss, or Monterey Jack—are draped directly across the stacked meats prior to steaming. The moisture-rich environment melts the cheese smoothly into every fold without separating oil or blistering into hardened skins.
Guests looking for traditional cold deli options can select from our lineup of sliced smoked turkey breast, Virginia honey ham, premium roast beef, or house-mixed tuna salad. Cold subs can be prepared plain or Fully Involved with mayonnaise, deli mustard, shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and thin red onion. You can also request any cold deli build to be steamed hot if you prefer melted cheese and warmed meat without switching to a specialty recipe.

We serve our subs on freshly toasted white and whole wheat artisan rolls baked specifically to withstand hearty portions of meat, marinara, and melted cheese without breaking down.

When preparing an order on a gluten-sensitive roll, our staff cleans the preparation area and uses fresh cutting surfaces to minimize kitchen contact with regular bread crumbs.

We also offer a wide selection of potato chips, including kettle-cooked, barbecue, and salt-and-vinegar varieties that complement any sandwich combo.
Our drink station features a comprehensive selection of fountain sodas, iced teas, lemonades, and bottled beverages to pair with your hot sub. Guests can enjoy unlimited refills on fountain drinks while dining in our Queen Street restaurant. We also stock bottled juices, spring water, and chocolate milk for visitors grabbing takeout orders on the run.
