A Food-Crave Fan-Fave Industry-Rave Kind of Franchise
Our brand culture is unique and down-to-earth, all inspired by our birthplace in Austin, TX. We create shareable experiences with products and services that satisfy our fans, build wealth for our franchise owners, enrich the lives of our local communities, and support local growth.
“our food is unique. our customers are loyal. we offer something that they can’t get anywhere else. we are fast, convenient, and consistent. our sandwich bread and pizza crust is baked fresh-from-scratch each morning. and with life’s current demands, where else can you get a whole pizza at the drive-thru, in less than 4 minutes?”
Viral Patel, Franchise Owner with 30 Locations

we’ve always been an original.
In 1971, a small sandwich shop on South Congress Avenue in Austin, Texas, opened as the first Schlotzsky’s® with only one product—an 8‑inch muffuletta stuffed with three meats, cheeses, lettuce, tomatoes, olives, and dressing served on hot, freshly made sourdough bread. The Original® sandwich was born.
