Well now…here we go again! Magee must really be turning into a town that loves to eat — and I’m not complaining one bit!
(Mayor Mark Grubbs announced at the Tuesday, March 3, 2026 meeting that Firehouse Subs is locating in Magee!)
Word is out that Firehouse Subs will soon be opening a location right here in Magee. The restaurant will be located in the shopping center where AutoZone is, taking over the former 49 North building at the end of the center.
That shopping center is beginning to fill up, and it’s exciting to see the growth taking place right here in our community.
And that’s not all! We are also expecting a Seven Brew Coffee to join the lineup in the same area.
At this time, no official opening date has been announced, but you can bet many of us will be watching closely as progress continues.
I’ll keep you posted as soon as I hear more. Until then…get ready, Magee — more good food is headed our way!
Firehouse Restaurant Group, Inc., doing business as Firehouse Subs, is an American multinational fast casual restaurant chain based in Jacksonville, Florida, that specializes in submarine sandwiches. It was founded in 1994 in Jacksonville, Florida by former firefighter brothers Chris and Robin Sorensen.
Owing to the Sorensens’ involvement in firefighting, the interior decor of Firehouse Subs locations is inspired by fire stations, and often includes firefighter equipment and memorabilia.[13] Each location features a custom mural, hand drawn and painted at the company’s headquarters in Jacksonville, Florida. The murals reflect fire and police service unique to each restaurant’s community or town. No two of the more than 1,200 murals painted are the same.[26]
Menu
The menu, which features hot specialty subs, salads, and other seasonal items, takes inspiration from the firehouse with names like Hook & Ladder, Engineer, and Firehouse Hero.[27] The subs are prepared with meats and cheeses, on toasted sub rolls, and served “Fully Involved” with vegetables and condiments. Chris and Robin remain in charge of the menu, and work alongside their director of product development Jay Miller, who joined the company in 2017.[28]
