New menu items debut at McAlister’s Deli

McAlister’s Deli has added two new menu items to celebrate the fall season.

The fast-casual chain’s new offerings are a garlic herb roast beef sandwich with cheddar cheese and herb mayonnaise, and a salted caramel cookie.

"When the seasons change, so do our guests' palates, and McAlister's is excited to roll out new fall menu items that offer something for everyone," Paul Macaluso, McAlister's Deli president, said in a statement.

Customers can order the sandwich in a half or full portion, while the salted caramel cookie can be ordered individually, or as part of a bundle or cookie tray.

McAlister’s Deli was named one of Technomic’s Top 500 chains in 2017, with an estimated $592.8 million in U.S. sales.
