Subway Subway IP LLC revealed it has added three new items to its menu list, and all of them are footlong. However, these are different from what everyone expects, as none of them are sandwiches.
Instead, CNN Business reported that Subway offers sides to match its famous footlong sandwich line. The fast-food restaurant company hopes introducing these new menus will help with its turnaround efforts.
Updated Menu Featuring Popular Treats
Subway announced it would add three 12-inch snack items under its side options. These are chocolate chip cookies, Auntie Anne's soft pretzel, and Cinnabon's churros. All of them are served hot and in foot-long sizes.
The sandwich chain said these items are now permanent sides, aptly named the Subway Sidekicks. This is an entirely new menu category, and the launch marks Subway's expansion to include other offerings that complement the sandwiches it is best known for. The company added cookies, churros, and pretzels in response to the customers' demand for more menu options.
Prices and Launch Date Details of Subway Sidekicks
Subway is set to release the footlong Sidekicks in its stores across the United States on Jan. 22. For the prices, customers may get the Cinnabon churros for $2 while the Auntie Anne's pretzel is priced at $3. For the chocolate cookies, they would be available for $5.
"The introduction of Sidekicks builds on six decades of equity and expertise in all things footlong," Subway North America's president, Douglas Fry, said in a press release. "This whole new category on our menu offers Subway fans something they can't get anywhere else and kicks off a year of culinary innovation and delicious new menu items. 2024 may be the most exciting chapter yet in our growth story."
International and Retail Channels at Focus Brands' president, Dave Mikita, added, "We are excited to team up with Subway to bring guests the fun and flavor of two of our iconic brands - Cinnabon and Auntie Anne's. These fan-favorite snacks will delight guests in new, craveable ways."
