The Subway breakfast menu in 2026 covers six customizable egg-based sandwiches and wraps, available at most participating US locations from opening until around 11 AM. The Subway breakfast menu starts at $3.75 for a 6-inch sandwich and $5.50 for a footlong, making it one of the most affordable build-your-own breakfast options in fast food.
Every item on the Subway breakfast menu is made with a fluffy egg patty, American cheese, and your choice of protein on the bread or wrap of your choosing. View Subway’s official breakfast page → Subway was founded in 1965 in Bridgeport, Connecticut by Fred DeLuca and Peter Buck — and breakfast has been part of the menu at participating locations since the 2010s.

The Sunrise Subway Melt is Subway’s most distinct breakfast offering, a combination of bacon, ham, and egg on the bread of your choice, toasted until the American cheese melts over the edges. Unlike the single-protein builds, this is the “loaded” option on Subway’s breakfast menu and the closest equivalent to a diner-style breakfast sandwich in the lineup.
It debuted as part of Subway’s broader breakfast expansion and has remained on the core menu at participating locations. The 6-inch starts at $3.75, same price as all other 6-inch breakfast items, making it the best value for the protein combination it delivers (~26g protein per 6-inch). Order it on flatbread, toasted, with jalapeños and chipotle southwest sauce for the closest thing to a breakfast sandwich upgrade in the fast food space.

Insider tips, not on any competitor page
1
Always get your sandwich toasted — melts the American cheese and adds structure to the flatbread wrap, making it less likely to tear.
2
The footlong breakfast sub is $5.50 vs $7.50 for two 6-inch subs — a 27% saving if you share or split the meal across two sittings.
3
Add spinach, tomatoes, and cucumbers at no charge — boosts micronutrients and makes the sandwich feel diner-substantial without adding sodium.
4
Skip the wrap if you're watching dairy — the Lavash wrap contains milk. The Artisan Italian bread is dairy-free and saves ~90 calories over the wrap.
5
Order the Deconstructed Breakfast Taco (secret): flatbread + steak + egg white + guacamole + spinach + chipotle southwest — not on the menu board, but any location can make it.
6
Stack bacon + ham + egg on any bread (the "Full Breakfast Sub") for a protein-maximized build at no extra charge beyond the Breakfast B.M.T. price.
7
Use the Subway app to preorder during commute — breakfast items vanish from the digital menu after 11 AM, so the app is more reliable than walk-in at borderline hours.
8
Request "the Old Way" cut — a triangular scoop cut instead of a straight sandwich cut. Better for flatbread breakfast wraps as it distributes egg evenly through each bite.
Egg & Cheese, 6-inch, Artisan Italian — $3.75, ~360 cal, 19g protein
Bacon, Egg & Cheese footlong ($5.50) split for two — $2.75 per serving with 24g protein each
Sunrise Subway Melt, 6-inch, toasted, jalapeños + chipotle southwest — $3.75
