What is Arby's Beef & Cheddar Sandwich?

Arby's Beef & Cheddar Sandwich is an American fast-food sandwich made with roast beef, cheddar cheese and cheddar sauce on an onion roll. Its soft bread and tender meat are balanced by a creamy, savoury sauce, making it a rich and filling combination. It is a signature-style option at Arby's, a US sandwich chain.

In the United States, it is commonly eaten as a quick lunch or casual dinner, often with fries; a side salad works well if you want a lighter meal. It provides protein, but the bread and sauce also contribute substantial carbohydrates: there are 29 g per 100 g. Pairing it with vegetables rather than another fried side can make the meal feel less heavy.
