MacArthur Center adds Firehouse Subs to food court

The food court at MacArthur Center continues to fill up.

Firehouse Subs, the sandwich chain with 14 locations in Hampton Roads, opened today on the third level of the downtown Norfolk mall. Firehouse joins Panda Express, a Sakura Elite sushi kiosk and Burger King as another new food court option.

MacArthur Center lost eight of its 10 food court restaurants in March last year when the concessions company that operated the restaurants declined to renew its lease. Charley’s Grilled Subs and Sbarro remained on the third level, as well as the full-service restaurants Johnny Rockets and Chili’s.

Firehouse Subs also has eateries in Norfolk at Janaf Shopping Yard and at the Navy Exchange.
