For many, meat is considered the substance of a sandwich. This perspective makes "eating fresh" as a vegan at Subway seem like a lost cause.
Yet while there are no vegan breakfasts or protein bowls at this sandwich chain, ordering a satisfying plant-based sandwich—complete with vegan toppings, sauces, and seasonings—isn't at all challenging. Here, we walk you through the menu and provide everything vegan at Subway, including some unique creations.
Our Top Picks
Our favorite Subway go-to's are hearty, substantial, and of course, vegan.
Meatless Meatball Marinara
Meatless Meatball Marinara, recently introduced across the United States and Canada as the meatless sibling of the popular Marinara Meatball Sub, is entirely vegan when ordered without cheese. Every six-inch sub packs an impressive 24 grams of plant-based protein. If you want a different flavor and feel from the marinara, try the Beyond Meatballs with buffalo or BBQ sauce.
Black Bean Soup
This rich, flavorful soup has been on the menufor years. When ordered with one of the heartier vegan rolls on the side, this can be a lovely, comforting option for the cooler months. If you like extra zing, request seasonings such as the oregano or the Provencal Herbs mix.
Treehugger Tip
Try one of Subway’sspecialtywraps—including Spinach, Habanero, and Tomato Basil—which are vegan. Pile on the vegetable toppings and finish it off with acompatible sauce.
