QuickChek is launching new menu options and bringing back Free Coffee Friday for QC Rewards members, according to a press release sent to NACS.
The New Jersey-based convenience chain is debuting two all-new Italian recipes, the “Giant Italian” and the traditional-style Italian (available on 6-inch or 12-inch bread) featuring the new QuickChek vinaigrette. The “Giant Italian,” part of the New York Giants Sub lineup, boasts mozzarella, cherry pepper relish and garlic aioli on fresh-baked bread from Teixeira’s Bakery.
QuickChek said that customers wanting bold and diverse flavor combinations on their made-to-order items can “get saucy” with QuickChek’s upgraded lineup. The options include:
- Chipotle mayo
- Garlic aioli
- Green goddess dressing
- QuickChek vinaigrette
- Frank’s RedHot buffalo sauce
The retailer also said that Free Coffee Friday for QC Rewards Members returns just in time for the launch of QuickChek’s latest blend, chocolate macadamia nut. The upcoming April blend of the month will bring back blueberry muffin. Also returning to the made-to-order and grab-and-go menus is the waffle breakfast sandwich.
“Our culinary team is always raising the bar with ways to take our recipes to the next level, and we believe our customers will enjoy their latest creations,” said Blake Segal, SVP and head of QuickChek. “With the addition of fresh mozzarella and more customization options, we continue to identify ways to ensure that every meal is packed with flavor and made with high-quality ingredients that our loyal customers expect.”
Royal Farms also recently unveiled a LTO spring menu. The new crunchy chicken salad with a kick is a “bold twist on a fan-favorite [that] delivers an extra crispy texture and a zesty, flavorful kick. Customers can enjoy it as a classic salad, perfect for scooping and spreading, or served on a flaky croissant for a rich and hearty meal,” according to a press release.
The retailer also introduced loaded baby cake hash browns, hash browns smothered in jalapeño cheese and bacon, and tuna salad croissants.
“Royal Farms is always looking for innovative ways to enhance its menu with bold and delicious flavors,” said Morgan Cannon, director of food service at Royal Farms. “With the introduction of our new weighted options, customers now have the flexibility to meal prep with ease or create a perfectly portioned family meal, making dining more convenient than ever.”
