Get Your Kicks this Summer with Schlotzsky’s® Route 66 Promo
The mouth-watering sandwich trio will be available now through August 25
AUSTIN, Texas – Route 66, also known as the Main Street of America, is the inspiration behind Schlotzsky’s® latest menu additions. Running from Chicago to California, the historic stretch of highway winds its way through numerous states, incorporating a variety of different cultures, tastes and flavors. From now until August 25, the home of The Original® round-toasted sandwich will feature these flavors in three signature sandwiches.
After the initial leg in 2010, which was the most successful summer promotion in company history, Schlotzsky’s extended its journey down Route 66 to the fall season. Gearing up for another trip, which combines the flavors of the last two promotions, Schlotzsky’s has brought back the Windy City Pastrami & Swiss, California Chick and Albuquerque Turkey.
“Back in 2010, our guests fell in love with the bold, regional flavors of the Route 66 promotion,” said Kelly Roddy, president of Schlotzsky’s. “We could not be more excited to bring back these crowd-favorite sandwiches and celebrate this historic stretch of highway again this summer.”
The three signature sandwiches include:
- Windy City Pastrami & Swiss
Sliced pastrami and melted Swiss cheese with Dijon mustard and our signature dressing on toasted Dark Rye bread;
- California Chick
Thinly sliced, roasted chicken breast, pepper jack cheese, bacon, guacamole, red onion, tomatoes, lettuce and fat free spicy ranch dressing on toasted Jalapeño Cheese bread;
- Albuquerque Turkey
Smoked turkey breast and crispy bacon with cheddar, mozzarella, and parmesan cheeses layered with fire-roasted vegetables, chipotle mayonnaise, shredded lettuce, tomato and our signature dressing on toasted Jalapeño Cheese bread.
Schlotzsky’s restaurants offer guests more than 15 different sandwiches on its famous, round freshly-baked buns, as well as gourmet pizzas made with Fresh-from-Scratch® crusts, freshly made-to-order tossed salads and a variety of soups and delectable desserts.
