Arby's new chicken cheesesteak sandwiches

On 5 October 2026, Arby’s officially announced the nationwide launch of its new Chicken Cheesesteak sandwich collection, aiming to capitalize on the growing consumer demand for premium poultry-based fast-food options. The new menu items feature thinly sliced, marinated chicken breast topped with melted provolone cheese, sautéed onions, and fire-roasted bell peppers, all served on a toasted hoagie roll. The company is offering two distinct variations: a classic version and a spicy variant that incorporates a signature zesty garlic aioli and sliced jalapeños. This rollout follows successful regional testing conducted earlier this summer, where the sandwiches received high marks for flavor profile and ingredient quality. Arby’s executives stated that the introduction of these sandwiches is part of a broader strategy to diversify their protein offerings beyond their traditional roast beef staples. The Chicken Cheesesteak sandwiches are now available at participating locations across the United States as a permanent addition to the menu, supported by a national marketing campaign highlighting the fresh preparation of the ingredients.
