About Firehouse Sandwiches

California's favorite sandwich delivery service since 2010

Our Story

Firehouse Sandwiches began in 2010 with a simple mission: to create the perfect sandwich delivery experience in California. Founded by two former firefighters who were tired of disappointing delivery options during their long shifts, Firehouse was born from a passion for quality food and exceptional service.

What started as a single location in San Francisco has grown to over 35 stores across California, but our core values remain the same. We believe that a sandwich isn't just food—it's an experience that should be crafted with care and delivered with pride.
