Firehouse Subs

Was craving a sandwich and remembered they were in my area, looked at the menu and read a review on here and went for it! The gal at the front was the best, explained all protocols for gluten allergy and wont cut your sandwich to lessen the chance of cross contanimation. Bonus : they have Schar bread ! So i was sold ! I had a tuna sandwich no cheese and some chips! I feel fine and will definately return again.

The staff is wonderful and goes above and beyond to take precautions, but avoiding cross contamination was still impossible. They pull all ingredients from new containers, change gloves, dedicate a person to follow the order through from start to finish, put on aluminum foil through toaster, and have a comprehensive allergy program to extensively research ingredients in store and online. They really did a great job, but fighting an invisible enemy (gluten) at a sandwich shop is near impossible…it’s everywhere. I should have known better…I got glutened for the first time since my diagnosis and it’s bad enough for me to never go back here again because the risk is just too high. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the effort put forth by the company and staff to accommodate allergies and medical issues though.

This place is the best about cross contamination and ensuring everything is gluten free. When requesting a gluten free bun at the counter they ask if it is an allergy or a preference. For a gluten allergy they use different gloves and often the sandwiches are uncut as they don’t want to cross contaminate with the gluten Sandwiches. Awesome place I definitely recommend.

They have a gluten free sub bun, they put it on foil when toasting the sub so it doesn’t touch the rack. Change gloves when asked. Took precautions to make sure there was as little cross contamination as possible. Still the possibility since it is not a gluten free restaurant. Had an amazing experience and the staff were so kind.

Staff was super friendly and well informed. Gluten free bun tasted amazing, and he did say that the toaster is shared but the bread is placed on foil. Best sandwich I've had in months!

Great GF roll. Haven’t tried having them toast it, but I didn’t get sick from the two times I’ve gotten food from there.

Went here last week. When I asked for the gluten free bread they asked if it was preference or allergy! Which i find is very nice, they changed gloves. They use Schar bread. It was so delicious! Didn’t have any issues later that day. But I am NOT diagnosed celiac, but I am gluten intolerant due to other autoimmune conditions.
