Subway Menu With Prices (2026 US Guide)

How Subway pricing works (and why your store differs)

Subway does not set retail prices centrally. Around 20,000 US restaurants are owned by independent franchisees, and each one prices the menu against its own rent, labour costs and local competition. That is why a Footlong Italian B.M.T. can be $10.79 at a suburban strip mall in Ohio and $15.49 three states away at an airport terminal.

The figures below are typical national ranges observed across US locations in 2026, not guaranteed prices. Use them to budget, then confirm the real number for your restaurant in the Subway app or on subway.com after selecting your store — that is the only place the exact price for your location is published.

Subway Series: the signature subs

The Subway Series is the numbered lineup Subway introduced to make ordering faster. Each sub arrives pre-designed with a specific meat, cheese, vegetable and sauce combination, grouped into families — Cheesesteaks, Italianos, Chicken, Clubs and the heavier "loaded" builds. You can still change anything; the number just gives the counter a starting point.

Limited-time Series entries appear a few times a year — spicy builds on ghost pepper bread have become a recurring seasonal favourite. Those items are genuinely temporary, so if you see one you like, do not assume it will be there next quarter.

Classic sandwiches

The originals never left. These are the cheapest way into the menu and the most forgiving to customise, because nothing on them is pre-committed.

Wraps, protein bowls and salads

Anything you can put in bread you can put in a wrap, a bowl or on greens. Wraps use a large soft lavash and hold roughly the filling of a Footlong, which is why they usually price closer to the Footlong than the six-inch — typically $10.99 to $14.99.

• Protein bowls ($9.49–$13.99): double protein, no bread, all the standard toppings. The default low-carb order.
• Chopped salads ($8.49–$12.49): the same fillings over lettuce and spinach, chopped and tossed.
• Protein Pockets ($4.99–$6.99): smaller, handheld pita-style pockets aimed at snack pricing.
• 6" Deli Faves ($4.29–$5.99): a stripped-back value tier of simple six-inch subs.

Breads, cheeses and toppings

Bread is where a sub is won or lost. The core US lineup is Artisan Italian, Hearty Multigrain, Italian Herbs & Cheese, Jalapeño Cheese, Flatbread and a rotating limited-time bread. Gluten-free bread is available at some — not all — locations and is prepared in a shared environment, so it is unsuitable for coeliac diners.

Cheese choices normally include American, provolone, Monterey cheddar, pepper jack and shredded mozzarella. Standard vegetables — lettuce, spinach, tomato, cucumber, green pepper, red onion, pickles, olives, jalapeños, banana peppers — are included at no charge, and this is the single biggest lever you have on both value and nutrition.

Extras that do cost more: extra meat (roughly $2.00–$3.50), extra cheese ($0.75–$1.25), bacon ($1.50–$2.50), avocado ($1.75–$2.75) and guacamole. Sauces are free, and there are more than a dozen, from Baja Chipotle and MVP Parmesan Vinaigrette to plain yellow mustard.

Sides, cookies and drinks

Where the real value sits

If you are optimising cost per calorie or cost per gram of protein, four orders consistently win:

1. Sub of the Day at $4.99 — a rotating six-inch classic, the cheapest full sandwich on the menu. See the weekly Sub of the Day schedule.
2. Meal of the Day at $6.99 — the same sub with chips and a drink; the add-ons cost less than buying them separately.
3. BOGO Footlong app offers — periodically buy-one-get-one-free, which is the lowest effective per-inch price Subway ever reaches.
4. A Footlong split into two meals — ask for it cut and wrapped separately; half now, half tomorrow.
