On the other side of their standard menu are 14 one-of-a-kind items made from Arby's everyday ingredients, designed in ways you hadn't guessed possible.

Does Arby's Have an Official Secret Menu?

The answer is both yes and no, depending on where you are located. Arby's Restaurant Group, Inc. has not officially recognized a secret menu across all of its restaurants. However, Arby's franchises owned by DRM, Inc. in Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, and Wisconsin do have their own recognized list of secret menu items, with the Meat Mountain leading the charge as the most famous of them all

 That said, most Arby's should be able to make you anything off the secret menu if you know what you are talking about (this website helps with that). I'm sure if things are slow at 2 am no one would mind throwing some extra stuff in between your buns either! Pricelistnow has come up with 14 items that people across America have been ordering for YEARS now, so it's not really "secret" anymore!

Tips for Ordering Secret Menu Items Successfully

Walking up to the counter and asking for a secret menu item can be intimidating if you've never done it before, but here are some tips to make the whole thing go as smooth as possible and stress free:

• Always be polite and patient. Not every staff member will recognize every item by its  secret name
• Please follow the exact order instructions of each item. Do NOT just say the name and hope for the best.
• Order exactly what you want but using Arby's standard menu ingredients already in the kitchen
• Most places can make it for you if you tell them what’s in the item
• Be polite and don’t freak out on an employee not knowing a “secret” item, just explain how to make the drink to the person
• Keep in mind the fact that staff members are NOT required to know the secret menu, but most of the time they will be happy to help you.

Tips for Getting the Most Out of the Arby's Secret Menu

Be Polite and Patient with Staff

The most important rule to remember when ordering off of Arby's secret menu is to be respectful and patient with the person who is taking your order. Employees are not required or supposed to know what secret items you are talking about, as there are no official Arby's secret menu names or training. Just be nice and explain yourself and we guarantee that you will get exactly what you want. Most employees love when they get a special request because it can be boring making the same food all day.

Use the Free Extras Hack on Every Visit

The Free Extras hack is the single easiest way to improve any Arby's order without spending more money. Whenever you're at the counter, just request some onion tanglers, one of their sauces, or a bread swap. Seriously adding onion tanglers to your roast beef sandwich or changing the bun to honey wheat can make a huge difference. Spread this tip around if you know anyone who digs into Arby's because it could change somebody's world.

Call Ahead for the Meat Mountain

The Meat Mountain is the best item on the Arby's secret menu, but it's not one that you can just drive up and order (at most locations). In fact, it's only available at select Arby's sandwich shops. That means if you show up to your local Arby's and ask for one of these monster sandwiches through an intercom or in a drive-thru, you'll be met with some blank stares.

So before venturing out to get yourself Arby's Meat Mountain, we recommend placing a quick call to your local Arby's restaurant. They'll let you know if they can make it. If they do carry it, they'll also tell you how much it is and if there are any other stipulations for ordering (there usually aren't).

Since the Meat Mountain is packed with so many delicious meats and cheeses, it might not travel so well. You're better off finding a restaurant with indoor seating than ordering through DoorDash.
