I tried Arby's new Buffalo chicken meal deal. It left me stuffed, and the price surprised me.
A food critic reviews Arby's 'Meat & 3' value meal, noting that the addition of a Buffalo chicken sandwich provides significant portion sizes for a low price. The review contextualizes this offering within the broader fast-food industry's recent push for value-oriented menus.
Why it matters
Reflects current consumer trends regarding inflation and the competitive strategies fast-food chains are using to retain price-sensitive customers.
The Arby's Meat & 3 deal consists of a sandwich, mozzarella sticks, curly fries, a drink, and a peach cobbler. Gabbi Shaw/Business Insider Arby's Meat & 3 deal costs $7.99 to $8.99 for a sandwich, two sides, a drink, and a dessert. The chain announced last week that its Buffalo chicken sandwich had been added to the deal. After trying the latest addition, I couldn't believe how much food I got for the price. If I told you that you could get a three-course meal at Arby's for less than $9, would you believe it? That's exactly what Arby's Meat & 3 deal purports to offer, with an appetizer, entrée, side, dessert, and drink all for $7.99 (or $8.99, depending on where you live).
