Arby's frequently asked questions

Arby's typically opens at 10am, or between 6am and 7am at locations that serve breakfast. Because hours are set locally there is no single opening time nationwide, and some stores open later on Sundays. The fastest way to know what time your Arby's is open is to look up that specific restaurant.

Typical Arby's hours

Arby's is open seven days a week at almost every location, including most public holidays with reduced hours. The main exceptions are Thanksgiving and Christmas Day, when many restaurants close entirely. If you need to know whether your Arby's is open right now, use the locator and check that store's listed hours.

At stores that serve breakfast, the lunch menu usually starts at 10:30am; stores without breakfast serve the full lunch menu from opening. Arby's does not stop serving lunch during the day — roast beef, chicken, sides and shakes are available right up to closing time.

Full menu prices

Breakfast normally ends at 10:30am at participating locations, and a few stores stop at 11am. Breakfast is not served all day anywhere, and it is not served at all at most Arby's restaurants — every breakfast item is flagged regional in the official nutrition guide.

Breakfast menu

Most Arby's restaurants close on Christmas Day, and many close early on Christmas Eve. A small number of locations in travel hubs, airports and truck stops stay open with shortened hours. Because each franchise decides for itself, call the store before making the trip.

Most Arby's restaurants are open on Easter Sunday, usually on normal or slightly reduced hours. Easter falls in Lent, which is historically when Arby's has run fish sandwich promotions, though no fish sandwich appears in the current nutrition guide.

Happy hour at Arby's has run in the mid afternoon, roughly 2pm to 5pm, with discounted drinks, shakes and snacks. It is a local promotion rather than a national one, so many stores do not offer it at all. Check the Arby's app for offers attached to your nearest restaurant.

Current deals

There is no fish sandwich in the August 2026 Arby's nutrition guide. Arby's has sold the Crispy Fish and King's Hawaiian Fish Deluxe as seasonal items around Lent in past years, often in 2 for deals. If you want one, watch the Arby's app in late winter and early spring.

Limited time items

Not on the current menu. Arby's ran the Wagyu Steakhouse Burger and Deluxe Burger as limited time items and they are no longer in the official guide, which is why the burger searches keep coming. If you want beef, the roast beef and Angus cheesesteak lines cover the same ground.

Roast beef menu

Yes. Arby's shakes come in Jamocha, Chocolate and Vanilla in Small, Medium and Large. A small Jamocha is 540 calories, a large is 980. Strawberry, mint and orange cream shakes have appeared as regional or seasonal flavours but are not in the current guide.

Shakes & desserts

Yes, a small amount. The Jamocha syrup contains instant coffee and cocoa, so a Jamocha Shake carries some caffeine — far less than a cup of coffee, but enough to matter if you are avoiding it. The Chocolate and Vanilla shakes are the caffeine-light alternatives.

Arby's does not sell ice cream cones or soft serve. The frozen options are the Jamocha, Chocolate and Vanilla shakes, and the limited time Shirley 'n Cream. For a baked dessert, the Apple and Cherry Turnovers and the Peach Cobbler Roll are on the menu.

Desserts

Yes. White Cheddar Mac 'n Cheese is a standard side at 470 calories with 17g of protein, and the limited time Steak 'n Mac Bowl pairs it with steak for 680 calories. Both contain wheat, milk and egg.

Sides menu

No. Arby's sells Chicken Tenders in 2, 3 and 5 piece portions rather than nuggets. The closest thing to a nugget is the limited time Steak Nuggets, which come in 5 and 9 piece portions plus a party pack.

Chicken menu

Yes. Chicken Tenders, also called chicken strips, come in 2, 3 and 5 pieces. Three tenders are 370 calories with 23g of protein; five are 610 calories with 39g. They come with a choice of BBQ, Buffalo, Honey Mustard or Ranch dipping sauce.

Tenders & sauces

Yes — Crispy Chicken, Buffalo Chicken, Chicken Bacon Swiss and Chicken Cordon Bleu, between 530 and 650 calories each. All four use a crispy breaded fillet; there is no grilled chicken sandwich in the current nutrition guide.

Chicken sandwiches

Yes. The Ranch Chicken Wrap is 400 calories and the Honey Mustard Chicken Wrap is 380, both on the value menu. At breakfast locations there are also bacon, sausage and ham egg & cheese wraps.

Value menu

No. Arby's has sold chicken wings in limited runs in the past, but no wings appear in the current nutrition guide. Chicken Tenders with a dipping sauce are the nearest equivalent on the menu today.

No, baked potatoes were discontinued and are not in the current guide. The potato sides are Curly Fries, Crinkle Fries and Potato Cakes, and the limited time Steak 'n Potato Bowl if it is running near you.

Potato sides

There are no salads in the August 2026 Arby's nutrition guide. Arby's sold Farmhouse and chopped side salads years ago and they have not returned nationally. For a lighter order, the Ham & Swiss Melt at 380 calories or a slider are the lowest-calorie sandwiches.

Calorie guide

Yes. The Greek Gyro is on the crafted sandwiches menu at 700 calories, and a Roast Beef Gyro is listed as a regional item. Both are served in a warm flatbread with gyro sauce, tomato, lettuce and onion.

Sandwiches menu

Yes, as the Angus Cheesesteak — 690 calories with 38g of protein — and the Angus Half Pound Cheesesteak at 1,110 calories. Chopped Angus steak, melted cheese and a toasted roll are what most people mean when they search for the Arby's Philly.

Cheesesteak menu

Yes. Roast Beef, Chicken, Ham and Buffalo Chicken sliders are all on the value menu, between 170 and 260 calories each. They are no longer a flat dollar, which is why searches for the Arby's dollar menu still turn up.

Sliders & value menu

The Market Fresh brand name has been retired, but the sandwiches live on: the Turkey Ranch & Bacon Sandwich, Reuben and Ham & Swiss Melt are the direct descendants and sit on the crafted sandwiches menu.

Crafted sandwiches

Arby's brisket is beef, smoked for around 13 hours. The Smokehouse Brisket is not in the current nutrition guide, so it is between runs. The Arby-Q, a pulled-style barbecue sandwich, is likewise a returning limited time item rather than a permanent one.

Arby's pours Coca-Cola, Coke Zero Sugar, Diet Coke, Sprite, Fanta Orange, Barq's Root Beer, Mello Yello, Dr Pepper, Diet Dr Pepper, Hi-C Flashin' Fruit Punch, POWERADE and Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade, plus Classic and Strawberry Lemonade, sweet and unsweet tea, shakes, milk and bottled water.

Drinks & sizes

Curly Fries, Crinkle Fries, Potato Cakes, Mozzarella Sticks with marinara, Jalapeno Bites with Bronco Berry Sauce and White Cheddar Mac 'n Cheese. Curly Fries run from 250 calories for a small to 600 for an XL; Crinkle Fries have much less sodium.

Sides menu

The Classic Beef 'n Cheddar and Classic Roast Beef are the signatures, Curly Fries are the side people come back for, and the Jamocha Shake is the drink. For more protein the Reuben has 37g and the Half Pound Beef 'n Cheddar has 49g. For fewer calories, try a slider or the Ham & Swiss Melt.

Compare every item

Bundle deals like 2 for $7, 2 for $6 and 4 for $10 rotate in and out and the price points change from year to year, so one may be running while another is not. Check the Arby's app for what is live at your store before you order.

Bundle deals explained

Yes. The Arby's app carries exclusive offers, mobile ordering and the Arby's Rewards program, where points from purchases convert into free food. Most of the best Arby's discounts are app-only now rather than printed coupons.

App & rewards

Not any more. The sliders that made up the old dollar menu are still sold but are priced above a dollar. The value menu — sliders, wraps, small fries and turnovers — is where the cheapest items live today.

Value menu

There were about 3,265 Arby's restaurants in the United States at the end of 2025, most of them franchised. That makes it one of the largest sandwich chains in the country, though the count shifts slightly each year as stores open and close.

It depends on state labour law and the franchise owner. Many Arby's locations hire from 16, and some hire at 14 or 15 with a work permit and restricted hours. Applications are handled per restaurant through the official Arby's careers site.
