Subway Breakfast Menu 2026: When It Stops, Every Sandwich & Calories

Subway breakfast is easy to find on a menu list and surprisingly hard to find in real life. Plenty of stores still serve it; plenty don’t. This guide uses Subway’s own U.S. nutrition guide dated October 2026, so the sandwiches and numbers below are what Subway lists today, and it explains how to check whether your store is one of the participating locations.

When Does Subway Stop Serving Breakfast?

Subway doesn’t publish a breakfast end time, because breakfast is set by each restaurant. Franchisees have been allowed to opt out of breakfast since 2018, and the stores that kept it choose their own hours. If a site gives you a single cutoff such as 10:30 or 11:00 AM for every Subway, it isn’t based on anything Subway publishes.

Some Subway locations still serve breakfast; others don’t serve it at all. In 2018, Subway said it expected the majority of U.S. restaurants to keep breakfast, but it hasn’t published a count since. Treat any store as “maybe” until you’ve checked.

The Full Subway Breakfast Menu

Subway’s breakfast menu is four sandwiches built on an egg patty and American cheese. The guide lists each on three breads. A footlong is simply double the 6″ figures.

On 6″ Artisan Italian

On 6″ Artisan Flatbread

On a 12″ Wrap

The wrap is not the light option it looks like. Its cholesterol (505 to 560 mg, against 250 to 290 mg for a 6″) suggests it carries roughly twice the egg of a 6″ sandwich, which fits its 740 to 900 calories.

Which Bread Should You Pick for Breakfast?

The 6″ Artisan Flatbread is the lightest base: it saves 20 to 30 calories and 210 to 220 mg of sodium against the 6″ Artisan Italian with the same filling. The 12″ wrap adds 270 to 350 calories over the Italian.

Footlong Breakfast Math

Subway’s guide says to double the 6″ figures for a footlong. That turns a reasonable breakfast into a very big one, especially on sodium.

Three of the four footlongs pass the 2,300 mg daily sodium value on their own, and the Egg & Cheese comes close at 2,040 mg. If you’re buying a footlong to split across breakfast and lunch, that’s a reasonable plan; eating it in one sitting is a different decision.

Hash Browns and the Egg Patty

Hash browns are 190 calories with 600 mg of sodium, and like breakfast itself they’re available at participating locations. Add them to a 6″ Egg & Cheese on flatbread and the meal comes to 630 calories and 1,410 mg of sodium.

The egg patty on its own is 180 calories, 15 g of fat and 10 g of protein, per Subway’s guide. It’s also listed as an individual protein, which suggests you can add egg to a regular sub where breakfast is served; ask your store.

Best Subway Breakfast Picks by Goal

Honestly, the 6″ Steak, Egg & Cheese is the best all-round breakfast here. It beats the bacon version on both protein and calories, with similar sodium.

Sodium on the Subway Breakfast Menu

Even the lightest 6″ breakfast carries 810 mg of sodium, and every wrap is over 1,400 mg. Black Forest Ham is the saltiest filling on every bread: 1,330 mg on the 6″ Italian and 2,060 mg in a wrap, which is 90% of the 2,300 mg daily value.

Two easy ways to cut it: choose flatbread over Italian (about 200 mg less), and skip the ham. Bacon on flatbread is the lowest-sodium meat option at 980 mg.

What Happened to Subway Breakfast?

Subway rolled out breakfast across more than 25,000 U.S. stores in April 2010, after launching it in Canada a month earlier, according to Mashed. Stores were required to open at 7 AM for it until 2018.

• April 2018: Subway let franchisees opt out of breakfast through an existing hours waiver, Nation’s Restaurant News reported in June 2018. A Subway executive said he expected the majority of U.S. restaurants to keep serving it.
• Why: Mashed, citing Bloomberg, pointed to competition, staffing shortages and weak breakfast sales at some stores. A Field Agent survey cited by Bloomberg found 43% of Subway customers didn’t eat its breakfast and 19% didn’t know it existed.
• 2019: Subway’s then-CEO described breakfast as a “regional success,” per Mashed.
• October 2026: Subway’s current U.S. nutrition guide still lists the four breakfast sandwiches, at participating locations.

So Subway breakfast isn’t gone. It just stopped being something you can count on at every store.

Subway Breakfast Numbers Other Lists Get Wrong

A widely shared Subway breakfast list understates the calories of every sandwich and includes items that aren’t in Subway’s U.S. guide.

The same list mentions Deliveroo and Just Eat for delivery, which suggests it mixes markets outside the U.S. For a U.S. store, rely on Subway’s U.S. guide and your store’s menu in the app.

Tips for Getting Breakfast at Subway

Subway Breakfast vs Other Chains

Subway’s lightest breakfast is heavier than most rivals’ lightest, partly because the smallest bread is still a 6″ sub. For the full lunch menu, see our Subway menu prices guide.

What to Know Before You Look for Subway Breakfast

Subway breakfast still exists, it’s just no longer universal. When you find a store that serves it, the 6″ Steak, Egg & Cheese on flatbread or Italian is the order that makes the most of it.
