Key Takeaways
- Arby’s is bringing back a discontinued fan-favorite menu item for a limited time.
- The sandwich was discontinued in 2021, and fans have been petitioning for its return ever since.
We know we’ve always been able to count on Arby’s for having “the meats,” from its classic roast beef sandwich to burgers, chicken wraps, and Reubens. However, can we count on the fast food chain to bring back discontinued menu items? Historically, yes.
Recently, Arby’s brought back its cheesesteaks. Then there’s its beloved Wagyu Burger, which comes back to menus every so often. And, we can’t forget its Potato Cakes, which became a permanent addition after fans pleaded for its return for years. Now, Arby’s is bringing back another fan-favorite menu item that customers have been petitioning for.
Arby’s is reintroducing its Loaded Italian Sandwich.
Arby’s Brings Back Loaded Italian Sandwich
Allrecipes / Arby’s
Look out Jimmy John’s, Subway, and Jersey Mike’s, because you just got some serious drive-thru competition. Arby’s is rereleasing its Italian sub, loaded with three different premium meats, cheese, and veggies on a toasted sub roll.
The Loaded Italian Sandwich was discontinued in 2021, alongside the Potato Cakes, and since then, fans have been begging for its return.
“This sandwich was my bread and butter. My heaven on earth…I am salivating as we speak. I’m begging you Arby’s, please bring it back. It was my favorite sandwich and nothing has been the same ever since,” one petitioner wrote on Change.org.
Arby’s has finally obliged by bringing back its Loaded Italian Sandwich—and with a new twist. The sub still features the beloved ham, pepperoni, salami, Swiss cheese, banana peppers, red onions, tomatoes, and lettuce, but its return features an all-new sauce. The Loaded Italian Sandwich is topped with a new savory garlic aioli.
The Loaded Italian Sandwich is back on Arby’s menus nationwide now. However, some fans may be disappointed to hear this: The Italian sub is not returning permanently. You’ll only be able to order the sandwich for a limited time, so you’d better hit the drive-thru now to get your fill.
