SCHLOTZSKY'S DELI BRINGS A TEXAS-SIZED TAKE TO A PHILLY CLASSIC WITH NEW PHILLY CHEESESTEAK LINEUP

The limited-time menu features Philly Cheesesteak-inspired subs, calzones and flatbreads

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Schlotzsky's Deli is putting its own spin on one of America's most iconic sandwiches with the introduction of its new Philly Cheesesteak lineup. Available for a limited-time through January 11, the new menu brings the familiar flavors of a Philly Cheesesteak to three distinct formats, including a sub, calzone and flatbread.

The Philly Cheesesteak menu offerings mark the brand's first hot extension of its Stacked Subs platform. Featuring thin-sliced marinated steak, warm, melted cheese and roasted vegetables, the menu pays homage to the classic Philly Cheesesteak while introducing new formats and flavor combinations that reflect Schlotzsky's Deli's approach to menu innovation.

"Philly Cheesesteaks are a classic for a reason, but at Schlotzsky's Deli, we're always looking for ways to put our own point of view on familiar favorites," said Jennifer Keil, Executive Chef, Schlotzsky's Deli. "This menu takes the core flavors people know and love and explores them across three distinct formats, giving guests a classic Philly Cheesesteak sub alongside two new interpretations."

The new Philly Cheesesteak Sub delivers a classic-inspired build with sliced marinated steak, white American cheese, roasted green peppers and caramelized onions on Schlotzsky's Deli's Artisan white sub bun.

For those looking to take the Philly Cheesesteak beyond the bun, Schlotzsky's Deli is serving up two additional takes:

• Philly Cheesesteak Calzone: Sliced marinated steak, white American cheese, mozzarella, roasted green peppers and caramelized onions, finished with Schlotzsky's Deli's signature sauce and baked into a craveable calzone.
• Chipotle Cheesesteak Flatbread: Sliced marinated steak, white American cheese, mozzarella, roasted red peppers, caramelized onions and roasted green peppers, topped with a drizzle of chipotle mayo on Schlotzsky's Deli's signature flatbread. Available as a full-size entrée or as part of Mix & Match.

The Philly Cheesesteak offerings are available in a variety of sizes and formats, giving guests flexibility to customize their meal. The Philly Cheesesteak Sub is available as a Medium (8-inch) or Giant (12-inch), with Mix & Match and Meal Deal options also available, while the Chipotle Cheesesteak Flatbread is offered as a full-size entrée or as part of Mix & Match. For larger groups, the new Philly Cheesesteak offerings are also available through Schlotzsky's Deli's catering menu.

The new Philly Cheesesteak lineup is available beginning September 1 at participating Schlotzsky's Deli locations nationwide. For more information or to find a location near you, visit www.schlotzskys.com.
