Schlotzsky's Offers Free Food for Guests on Tax Day

Schlotzsky's, home of The Original oven-baked sandwich and famous Fresh-from-Scratch buns, is helping ease the stress of Tax Day by treating guests to a free small The Original sandwich with the purchase of a 32 oz. drink and a bag of chips on April 18 at Schlotzsky's restaurants nationwide.

"We know this time of year can be stressful, so we wanted to make it a bit easier by giving our guests a 'tax break' to enjoy their favorite sandwich for free," said Kelly Roddy, president of Schlotzsky's. "With its mouthwatering combination of premium meats and cheeses and fresh veggies, The Original is the ultimate crowd pleaser and the perfect reward after a long day of tax-filing."

The Original sandwich features 13 fresh, flavorful ingredients served on Schlotzsky's legendary Fresh-from-Scratch oven-baked sourdough buns. The Original is topped with lean smoked ham, genoa and cotto salamis, melted cheddar, mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. It's layered with black olives, red onion, lettuce, tomato, mustard and signature dressing to create a truly one-of-a kind sandwich.

At Schlotzsky's, guests can enjoy the highest quality hot delicious sandwiches on its legendary Fresh-from-Scratch oven-baked sourdough buns, gourmet pizzas, Artisan flatbreads, oven-baked pastas, a variety of savory soups and delectable desserts. Schlotzsky's recently announced the addition of seven new hand-crafted Specialty Sandwiches to its permanent menu, each offering bold flavors and fresh, high quality ingredients such as vine-ripe tomatoes, thinly sliced meats, caramelized onions, roasted red bell peppers and rich, melted cheeses piled high on the brand's signature freshly-baked bread. With seven unique recipes, including one vegetarian option, Schlotzsky's is offering something new to satisfy every craving.
