Schlotzsky’s Austin Eatery
We operate quick casual Schlotzsky’s restaurants that serve premium sandwiches with blended flavors on our proprietary breads, along with pizzas, soups, salads, and complementary food and beverages. In some locations, we also offer alcoholic beverages and may include a Cinnabon Express Bakery inside the restaurant, featuring fresh baked cinnamon rolls and related items. Our restaurants are designed for guests looking for a convenient meal with counter service and limited table service in a fast-casual setting. We typically operate in end-cap and freestanding locations with drive-thrus, and we also serve guests in non-traditional sites such as airports, college campuses, and convenience stores. Our system uses standardized recipes, menu items, store design, equipment, training, and operating procedures to deliver a consistent restaurant experience.
