Arby’s Menu 2026: Full Menu With Prices, Calories & What’s New

Arby’s menu in 2026 covers slow-roasted beef sandwiches from $4.99, sliders at $2.09, crispy chicken, sides, breakfast, and handcrafted shakes. Calories run from 70 for a side salad to 1,270 for the Meat Mountain. Prices vary by location. This page lists every category with current prices and calorie counts.

Arby’s has always been the odd one out in fast food — while the big chains fight over burgers, Arby’s built its name on slow-roasted beef, shaved thin and piled high. That focus is still the spine of the Arby’s menu in 2026, but the lineup has grown well beyond roast beef. Today’s menu runs from $2.09 sliders and value picks up to the half-pound beef stacks, plus a chicken program, steak nuggets, breakfast items at participating locations, and a shake and dessert case that still includes the famous Jamocha Shake.

One honest note before the lists: Arby’s prices vary by location — sometimes by a lot. The prices below are representative U.S. prices from recent menus and match the item pages on this site. Your local restaurant may charge more or less, especially on franchise locations in high-cost cities. If you need exact numbers before you go, check the official Arby’s site or call ahead. Calorie counts come from Arby’s published nutrition information and are consistent nationwide.

Slow-Roasted Beef: The Core of the Arby’s Menu

This is the category Arby’s is famous for, and it’s still where the chain does its best work. Every sandwich starts with beef that’s slow-roasted in the restaurant, then sliced thin to order.

The Classic Roast Beef at $4.99 and 360 calories remains the best value-per-dollar ratio of any signature sandwich in fast food, and the Beef ‘n Cheddar is the chain’s second most iconic build. If you’re feeding a crowd or a very hungry teenager, the Half Pound at $9.30 delivers more beef per dollar than any other single sandwich on the board.

Chicken: Crispy Sandwiches, Tenders & Salads

Arby’s chicken program has become a full second pillar of the menu. The crispy chicken sandwich line and the chicken tenders both come from the same breaded fillet platform, so quality is consistent across formats.

The 5-piece tenders at $7.69 work out to about $1.54 per tender, making them one of the fairer chicken deals in the segment. The Roast Beef Salad at just 250 calories is worth flagging for anyone watching intake — it’s a genuine full-size entree, not a side, and it undercuts the calorie count of nearly every sandwich on the board.

Sliders & Value Picks

Arby’s slider line is the chain’s answer to the value menu, and the pricing is refreshingly simple: every slider is $2.09. No rotating deals, no fine print — just $2.09 each.

Three sliders at $6.27 total make a filling meal for less than most single combo sandwiches, and the calorie math is kind: even three Buffalo Chicken Sliders (720 calories) land below a single Beef ‘n Cheddar combo. The Roast Beef Slider is the purest expression of the format — the same slow-roasted beef as the Classic, in a smaller bun.

Steak Nuggets & Cheesesteaks

Steak nuggets are one of Arby’s newer protein platforms — seared steak bites rather than the usual breaded chicken nugget format — and they’ve earned a permanent spot. The cheesesteak line grew out of the same idea: thinly shaved steak with melted cheese and caramelized onions.

The 10-piece at $12.49 drops the per-piece price to about $1.25, which is the best nugget value on the menu. Steak nuggets also show up in limited-time cheesesteak sandwiches — worth checking the current LTO board when you visit, because the cheesesteak rotation changes a few times a year.

Breakfast Menu

Arby’s serves breakfast at participating locations, generally during morning hours — availability varies, so check your local store (our Arby’s near me page explains how to confirm hours before you go). The breakfast lineup is compact but covers the standard fast-food morning formats: biscuits, a croissant sandwich, and French toast sticks.

At $2.99, the biscuits are priced like the value tier, and the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Croissant at $4.29 is the only breakfast sandwich over three dollars. The French Toast Sticks run 590 calories — the heaviest breakfast item relative to its price, so treat it as an indulgence rather than a daily order.

Sides

Arby’s side game is anchored by the curly fries, and the lineup extends into mozzarella sticks, potato cakes, onion rings, and loaded fries. Portions here are generous enough that a side plus a slider can stand in for a full meal.

Watch the Loaded Curly Fries: at 650 calories they carry more energy than the Classic Roast Beef sandwich itself. The Mozzarella Sticks at $5.59 are the priciest side, but they’re effectively a shareable appetizer rather than a single-person side.

Shakes, Desserts & Drinks

Arby’s handcrafted shakes are made with real ice cream, and the Jamocha — coffee and chocolate — has been the signature flavor for decades. Desserts round out with turnovers and cookies.

The Jamocha Shake is the one item regulars will tell you to try first — it’s the chain’s signature dessert and the flavor most associated with the brand. All three shakes sit within 50 calories of each other, so pick by taste, not by calorie math. The cookie at $1.99 and 350 calories is the cheapest way to add dessert to an order.

Combos: What a Meal Actually Costs

Combo meals pair a sandwich with curly fries (or crinkle fries) and a drink. The premium over the sandwich alone is typically $4–5, which makes combos worth it if you were going to order fries and a drink anyway — and a bad deal if you weren’t.

The Beef ‘n Cheddar Combo at $10.69 is the cheapest full combo on the board. Note the calorie jump: the Half Pound Roast Beef goes from 610 calories as a sandwich to 1,180 as a combo — the fries and drink roughly double the count. Kids meals ($6.99 each, 430–500 calories depending on the choice) follow the same structure with a slider or tenders, a side, and a drink.

Eating Lighter: The Lowest-Calorie Picks on the Arby’s Menu

Arby’s is a meat-heavy menu, but the floor is lower than most people expect. If calories are the concern, these are the numbers that matter:

• Lightest entree: Roast Beef Salad at 250 calories and $6.64.
• Lightest sandwich: Ham Slider at 170 calories and $2.09; the Roast Beef Slider is 180 calories.
• Lightest side: Side Salad at 70 calories and $2.99.
• Lightest drink: Iced tea at 30 calories and $2.59.
• Heaviest single item: the Meat Mountain at 1,270 calories (price varies — ask in store).

A practical low-calorie order: a Ham Slider (170) with a side salad (70) and iced tea (30) totals 270 calories for $7.67 — less than the calorie count of the Classic Roast Beef alone. On the other end, the Meat Mountain stacks every meat on the menu into one sandwich, which is exactly as heavy as it sounds at 1,270 calories.

What’s New on the Arby’s Menu Right Now

Arby’s rotates limited-time items several times a year, and the newest launch is a chicken cheesesteak line that arrived October 12, 2026: three sandwiches — the Chicken Cheesesteak, the Chicken Deluxe Cheesesteak, and the Spicy Chicken Cheesesteak — built on seasoned chicken with melted cheese and caramelized onions. Reported prices run $7.49 to $8.49 depending on the build, with the Deluxe (which adds lettuce and tomato) at the top of the range. Availability varies by location and Arby’s hasn’t announced an end date, so these are get-them-while-they’re-here items.

The cheesesteak line follows the Angus Cheesesteak, which earned a permanent menu spot earlier in 2025 after a successful limited run. If the chicken versions perform the same way, expect at least one of them to stick around. For the latest LTO announcements, the official arbys.com site and the brand’s social channels are the authoritative sources.

Arby’s Menu FAQ

What is the cheapest thing on the Arby’s menu?

The $1.99 cookie is the cheapest single item, but among real food, the $2.09 sliders are the cheapest — every slider (roast beef, ham, chicken, buffalo chicken, ranch chicken, honey mustard chicken) costs $2.09. Three sliders make a full meal for $6.27.

Does Arby’s have a dollar menu?

Not under that name. Arby’s value tier is the slider line at $2.09 each, plus $2.99 items like curly fries, potato cakes, biscuits, and the side salad. There’s no $1 tier on the current menu.

What is the lowest-calorie meal at Arby’s?

A Ham Slider (170 calories), side salad (70), and iced tea (30) total 270 calories. If you want a full-size entree, the Roast Beef Salad at 250 calories is the lightest main dish on the menu.

What is the Meat Mountain?

The Meat Mountain is Arby’s infamous secret-menu-style sandwich that stacks nearly every meat the chain serves — roast beef, brisket, chicken tenders, ham, bacon, and more — into one sandwich. It runs 1,270 calories and pricing is set in store, so ask at the counter.

Does Arby’s serve breakfast all day?

No — breakfast is served during morning hours at participating locations, and not every Arby’s serves breakfast at all. Hours vary by store, so check before you go; our Arby’s near me page covers how to confirm your local store’s hours.

Where can I find official Arby’s nutrition information?

Arby’s publishes full nutrition PDFs and an allergen guide on the official arbys.com website. The calorie counts on this page match Arby’s published figures; for allergen or ingredient-level detail, the official nutrition documents are the source of record.

The Bottom Line

The Arby’s menu in 2026 is broader than its roast-beef reputation suggests, but the value logic is simple. The $2.09 sliders are the cheapest path to a full meal. The Classic Roast Beef at $4.99 remains the signature order and one of the best value-to-calorie ratios in fast food. Combos make sense only if you want the fries and drink — otherwise order à la carte. And if you’re watching calories, the menu has a genuine light end: salads, sliders, and iced tea can put together a sub-300-calorie meal without any special ordering.

Prices move by location and limited-time items rotate, so treat this page as your baseline and confirm the board when you visit. Arby’s history as the roast-beef outlier of fast food — the chain was founded in 1964 on that single idea, as Wikipedia’s Arby’s entry documents — is still visible in every category: even the chicken, the sliders, and the salads orbit the same slow-roasted core. That’s what makes the menu coherent, and it’s why the Classic still outsells everything else on it.
