Subway Protein Bowls Menu With Prices (2026 Guide)

A Subway Protein Bowl—originally introduced as a 'No Bready Bowl'—features the exact same meat and cheese portions as a Footlong sandwich (double the protein of a 6-inch sub), served over a generous bed of fresh greens and vegetables instead of bread. It allows customers to enjoy their favorite Subway recipes while eliminating 70g to 90g of carbohydrates and 360 to 450 calories from bread.

In 2026, individual Subway Protein Bowls generally cost between $9.49 and $13.49 at US franchise locations, matching the price of their Footlong sandwich counterparts. Classic poultry and deli bowls (like Oven-Roasted Turkey or Grilled Chicken) range from $10.49 to $10.99, while premium Series bowls (like #1 The Philly Steak or #30 The Beast) cost $11.99 to $13.49. A Bowl Meal Combo (adding apple slices or chips and a beverage) adds $3.49 to $3.99.

Yes! Subway Protein Bowls are widely recognized as one of the best keto fast-food options available. Most bowls contain only 7g to 11g of Net Carbs (Total Carbohydrates minus Dietary Fiber). Bowls like the Rotisserie-Style Chicken (8g net carbs), Tuna (7g net carbs), Grilled Chicken (7g net carbs), and Spicy Italian (8g net carbs) fit comfortably within standard daily 20g to 30g ketogenic carb limits.

The primary difference is the meat portion. A traditional Subway chopped salad was originally built with the protein portion of a 6-inch sub. A Subway Protein Bowl contains a full Footlong portion of protein—double the meat and cheese of a standard salad—making it much more satiating, packed with 35g to 56g of protein.

The highest protein bowl on the Subway menu is The Beast Protein Bowl (#30) with 56 grams of protein, containing half a pound of meats (pepperoni, salami, turkey, ham, and roast beef) with double provolone. Among single-meat options, The Monster Protein Bowl (#3) provides 54 grams of protein, and the Rotisserie-Style Chicken & Bacon delivers 46 grams of protein.

Yes, completely. When ordering in restaurant or on the Subway app, you can choose your base—such as 100% baby spinach, crisp shredded lettuce, or a 50/50 mix. You can also add unlimited free vegetable toppings including tomatoes, cucumbers, green bell peppers, red onions, black olives, pickles, and jalapeños, plus sliced avocado as a healthy fat upgrade.

For strict keto, stick with Oil & Red Wine Vinegar (0g carbs), Yellow Mustard (0g carbs), Peppercorn Ranch (1g carb), or Baja Chipotle (1g carb). Avoid sweet sauces such as Sweet Onion Teriyaki (18g sugar/carbs) and Honey Mustard (10g carbs), as they contain added sugars that significantly raise your carb count.

Most Subway Protein Bowls do not contain gluten ingredients when prepared with standard meats and vegetables. However, Subway kitchens handle wheat bread extensively, so cross-contact may occur. Additionally, avoid meatballs (which contain wheat breadcrumbs) and teriyaki glaze (which contains soy sauce made with wheat).
