Firehouse Subs is opening tomorrow in Douglas

Firehouse Subs announces the grand opening of its first location in Douglas at 914 S. Peterson Ave. on Thursday, Aug. 23, under the ownership of local entrepreneur Fred Thomas. Firehouse Subs serves premium meats and cheeses steamed and piled high on a toasted sub roll, served "Fully Involved®" with fresh produce and condiments. In 2017, Firehouse Subs received Technomic's Chain Restaurant Consumers' Choice Award as No. 1 Overall Brand and was recognized as No. 1 among the Top 10 Most Craveable Sandwich Chain Sandwiches by Technomic for its signature Hook & Ladder Sub®. In addition to its signature subs, the restaurant offers a variety of catering options from sandwich and dessert platters to salads and snacks to fuel any occasion.

This is the third Firehouse Subs restaurant for Thomas, who is thrilled to ignite the flame in Douglas. "The first time I tried Firehouse Subs, I knew I had to be involved with the brand," said Thomas. "Six months later, I opened my first restaurant in Waycross, and haven't looked back since."

Thomas is dedicated to continuing Firehouse Subs' commitment to helping public safety organizations through Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation®, which has donated more than $2.3 million in grants in the state of Georgia.

The Douglas Firehouse Subs restaurant is open seven days a week from 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. and will have a drive-thru.
