Zaxbys Revives Debate With Limited-Time Chicken Philly Sandwich Return

Zaxbys Revives the Chicken Philly Sandwich

Zaxbys™, renowned for its delectable Chicken Fingerz™ and an assortment of 12 signature sauces, is back in the limelight with the much-anticipated return of its Chicken Philly sandwich. Just in time for the new year, this limited-time offer challenges the traditional Philly cheesesteak with a flavorful twist that chicken lovers will find hard to resist.

A Saucy Spin on a Classic

The Chicken Philly sandwich is a delicious reimagining of a beloved classic that embodies everything Zaxbys stands for: bold flavors and Southern hospitality. Packed with either three hand-breaded chopped Chicken Fingerz™ or a sliced marinated grilled filet, this tasty creation is carefully placed on a toasted hoagie roll. It’s generously topped with melted White American cheese, sautéed peppers, and onions, alongside creamy garlic aioli, ensuring every bite is a satisfaction-packed experience.

Zaxbys has secured a special place in the hearts of its fans over the years and aims to solidify that connection with this limited-time offering. The Chicken Philly sandwich costs $8.49 for the sandwich alone, or customers can opt for a meal combo with Crinkle Fries and a Small Drink for just $10.99. Undeniably, it’s a deal too good to pass up.

Celebrating with Philadelphians

In a unique twist, Zaxbys is enhancing the excitement by inviting fans from Philadelphia to partake in a special promotion. Those residing in or near the City of Brotherly Love can snag a free Chicken Philly sandwich on specific dates in January.

On January 12 and January 18, Philadelphia locals in Orlando and Indianapolis will have the opportunity to present their Philadelphia IDs at participating Zaxbys outlets to claim their complimentary Chicken Philly. Each Philadelphian can redeem the offer for themselves and a friend, making this an unforgettable celebration of the sandwich's return.

Zaxbys acknowledges the intense passion Philadelphia has toward its food and aims to celebrate this culinary love by putting its new Chicken Philly to the test against the traditional cheesesteak. As Patrick Schwing, Zaxbys' Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer, aptly puts it, the city is famous for its loyalty to food—and Zaxbys welcomes the challenge.
