Need breakfast on the way to work? Subway breakfast keeps things simple: egg and cheese with bacon, ham or steak, served on Artisan Italian bread, Artisan Flatbread or as a wrap. A 6-inch breakfast sandwich has 440 to 550 calories, and at the Subway store we checked, prices started at $5.59.

Where these prices and numbers come from
*Prices come from Subway’s online ordering menu for one real store, at 720 US Highway 24 S, Buena Vista, Colorado, checked in November 2026. A dash means that store didn’t list a price for the item. Subway restaurants are independently owned franchises, so prices vary by location, and not every Subway serves breakfast.
Calories, protein and sodium come from Subway’s official US nutrition guide, also on our Subway nutrition page. Read how we check every number in our editorial policy.
Italian bread or flatbread: which is lighter?
Subway serves the same breakfast fillings on two breads. Flatbread wins every time:
| Filling (6-inch) | Artisan Italian | Artisan Flatbread | Flatbread saves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Egg & Cheese | 470 cal · 1,020 mg | 440 cal · 810 mg | 30 cal · 210 mg |
| Bacon, Egg & Cheese | 550 cal · 1,200 mg | 520 cal · 980 mg | 30 cal · 220 mg |
| Black Forest Ham, Egg & Cheese | 510 cal · 1,330 mg | 490 cal · 1,120 mg | 20 cal · 210 mg |
| Steak, Egg & Cheese | 530 cal · 1,250 mg | 500 cal · 1,040 mg | 30 cal · 210 mg |
Flatbread saves 20 to 30 calories and about 210 mg of sodium per 6-inch sandwich. That doesn’t sound like much, but over a week of breakfasts it’s more than 1,400 mg of sodium.
Breakfast wraps at Subway
Breakfast wraps are much bigger than a 6-inch sandwich, with 740 to 900 calories, but also more protein.
| Breakfast wrap | Calories | Protein | Sodium | Price* |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Egg & Cheese Wrap | 740 | 32 g | 1,440 mg | $7.99 |
| Black Forest Ham, Egg & Cheese Wrap | 820 | 44 g | 2,060 mg | — |
| Steak, Egg & Cheese Wrap | 860 | 48 g | 1,890 mg | $8.49 |
| Bacon, Egg & Cheese Wrap | 900 | 42 g | 1,790 mg | $8.49 |
The Steak, Egg & Cheese Wrap has 48 grams of protein for 860 calories and cost $8.49 at the store we checked. That’s a lot of food for one breakfast, so it works best if it’s also replacing a later snack.
Breakfast footlongs
A breakfast footlong is exactly double the 6-inch: 880 to 1,100 calories.
| Breakfast sandwich (footlong) | Calories | Protein | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|
| Egg & Cheese on Artisan Flatbread | 880 | 36 g | 1,620 mg |
| Egg & Cheese on Artisan Italian | 940 | 42 g | 2,040 mg |

| Steak, Egg & Cheese on Artisan Italian | 1,060 | 60 g | 2,500 mg |
| Bacon, Egg & Cheese on Artisan Italian | 1,100 | 52 g | 2,400 mg |
The Bacon, Egg & Cheese footlong on Italian bread has 1,100 calories and 2,400 mg of sodium, more than the full-day sodium guideline of 2,300 mg from the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Unless you’re sharing, stick with the 6-inch.
