A well-known national sandwich shop has opened a new location in this busy Columbia area
There’s a new place to grab a sandwich — and perhaps sprinkle it with a bit of hot sauce — in northeast Columbia.
Firehouse Subs, which has locations across the Midlands and nationwide, opened a new sandwich shop Monday, Oct. 28 at 10136 Two Notch Road. The sandwich shop is located in the Sparkleberry Square shopping center, and is just a couple doors down from a Kroger grocery store.
The new Firehouse Subs was opened by uncle-and-nephew duo Larry Chandler and Jody Chandler, who operate nearly 40 Firehouse locations across the Carolinas.
“We are thrilled to be bring our hearty and flavorful subs and community commitment to a new area of Columbia,” Larry Chandler said in a statement. “We can’t wait to welcome new and loyal guests, while supporting local first responders through the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation.”
There are dozens of Firehouse Subs locations across South Carolina, including several in the Columbia and Lexington areas. The company is known for its hot sandwiches with names that are a nod to firefighting, such as the signature Hook and Ladder, which comes with smoked turkey breast, Virginia honey ham, melted Monterey Jack cheese, mayo, deli mustard, lettuce, tomato, onion, and a kosher dill pickle on the side.
The company also recently rekindled its popular hot sauce bar, offering customers a host of spicy sauces they can add to their sandwiches when they are in the restaurant.
The Sparkleberry Square Firehouse Subs is in the midst of a busy commercial area in northeast Columbia. Nearby businesses include Lowe’s Home Improvement, Kroger, Publix, Ross, Kohl’s, Chick-fil-A and more. About 32,400 cars per day travel down that section of Two Notch Road, per state Department of Transportation statistics.
The new Firehouse location is open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.
