Arby's is expanding its popular Meat and 3 Value Box to include a new Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich.
Available from participating locations for a limited time, the new Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich is a spicy offering. The sandwich starts with a generously sized breaded, crispy-fried chicken breast patty, which is then topped with shredded lettuce, spicy Buffalo sauce, and a drizzle of creamy ranch. The whole thing is served on a toasted, buttery brioche bun for the perfect contrast of soft and crunchy.
With the addition of the new Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich, Arby's Meat and 3 Value Box now includes seven mix and match options, including the Crispy Chicken Sandwich, Small Curly Fries, Peach Cobbler Roll, and more.
