| - I decided to head over to the Epicentre and try out Firehouse Subs for lunch. I went around 11:30ish and the place was packed. The line to order your sandwich had about 4 or 5 people in it ahead of me, but they had 3 registers going so it moved quickly. I had just the right amount of time to check out their menu board and figure out which sandwich to order. I ordered the #9 Combo, the Firehouse Hero. The combo is sandwich with chips & drink which came to $8.94 which is pretty pricey. The Firehouse Hero has roast beef, smoked turkey breast, honey ham, and melted provolone. You can get it "Fully Involved" which is mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomato, onion, and a dill spear on the side. I got my drink and sat down to wait for my sandwich. I didn't time it, but it probably took about 5 minutes to get my sandwich. Which to me seemed a long time. But, I was able to order immediately and get my drink so I didn't have to stand in line while they made my sandwich. The sandwich was hot and the provolone was melted across the top. The meats were juicy and tasty. Overall a pretty good sandwich. If there weren't other sandwich shops I would probably go here, but $9 for a sandwich, chips and drink is just to high when you can go to Subway or Quiznos and get about the same thing for less money. Firehouse just isn't that much better than either to justify the premium price for its sandwiches.
