Reviews

The Sun Sentinel featured Firehouse Subs in Boynton Beach as one of its takeout finds. Two Yelpers give Firehouse Subs an average rating of 3.5 stars and 77% of nine Urbanspooners recommend it:

• Very tasty and good selection. Not too many options; but I like it like that. – victoria r., Yelp
• Even though the subs are very moist, they are not soggy or dripping. Both the wheat and white sub rolls are fresh and sturdy enough to hold up under the weight of the fillings. – Claudine McCarthy, Sun Sentinel
