Arby’s $7.99 Meat & 3 Box just got a spicy upgrade.
The chain added its new Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich to the Meat & 3 Value Box on August 3, giving guests a third entrée option in the $7.99 complete meal — and one with significantly more personality than the existing Ham & Swiss or Crispy Chicken choices.
What’s in the Meat & 3 Box
For $7.99, the Meat & 3 Value Box now includes:
- Choice of entrée: Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich, Crispy Chicken Sandwich, or Ham & Swiss Sandwich
- Small Curly Fries, Crinkle Fries, or 2 Potato Cakes
- 2-piece Mozzarella Sticks
- Peach Cobbler Roll
- Small fountain drink
That’s five items for $7.99 — a full meal with a side, a snack, a dessert, and a drink included.
The New Sandwich: Buffalo Ranch Chicken
The Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich features a crispy-fried chicken breast tossed in spicy Buffalo sauce and topped with cool, creamy ranch and shredded lettuce on a toasted buttery brioche bun. The Buffalo-and-ranch pairing is a natural one — the heat of the sauce balanced by the cooling creaminess of the ranch, all on a brioche bun that’s noticeably softer and more premium than a standard fast food bun.
One reviewer noted it “hits the sweet spot between spicy, creamy, and crunchy.” At $7.99 bundled into the full Meat & 3 Box, it’s a strong value play for anyone who typically skips Arby’s because they’re not a roast beef person.
One Thing Worth Noting
The Meat & 3 Box has drawn some attention for the fact that Arby’s most iconic products — roast beef and the Beef ‘N Cheddar — aren’t among the entrée options. It’s an interesting omission for a chain whose slogan is “We Have the Meats,” but for chicken fans, the new Buffalo Ranch addition makes the box a genuinely compelling lunch or dinner option at the current price.
How to Order
Available in-restaurant, at the drive-thru, online, and through the Arby’s app at participating locations nationwide. Prices may vary slightly by market.
The Bottom Line
Arby’s Meat & 3 Value Box — now with the Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich as an entrée option — is available for $7.99 at participating locations. Five items, one price, and a new spicy-creamy sandwich worth trying.
