About Arby's - Reading, Pennsylvania

Welcome to Arby's at 3210 N 5th Street Highway in Reading, Pennsylvania, where we've been proudly serving our community with an unwavering commitment to quality, flavor, and the kind of hospitality that makes every visit memorable. As your local Arby's franchise, we're not just another fast-food restaurant – we're your neighbors, dedicated to bringing you the exceptional meats and sandwiches that have made Arby's a beloved American institution for over five decades.

Our Story and Heritage

At our Reading location, we carry forward the rich tradition that began in 1964 when the Raffel brothers opened the first Arby's in Boardman, Ohio. Their vision was simple yet revolutionary: create a fast-food restaurant that specialized in something other than hamburgers, focusing instead on slow-roasted roast beef and quality ingredients. Today, we continue that legacy right here in Berks County, bringing you the same dedication to excellence that has defined Arby's for generations.

Our team takes immense pride in being part of the Arby's family, and we understand that every sandwich we serve represents not just a meal, but a promise to our customers. We promise quality ingredients, careful preparation, and the kind of attention to detail that ensures every bite meets the high standards you expect from Arby's.

What Sets Us Apart

At Arby's Reading, we believe that good food starts with good ingredients, and that philosophy drives everything we do. Our signature roast beef is slow-roasted in our restaurant every single day, ensuring that when you bite into one of our classic roast beef sandwiches, you're experiencing meat that's been prepared with care and attention right here in our kitchen. We don't take shortcuts when it comes to quality, and that commitment shows in every product we serve.

Our menu extends far beyond our famous roast beef, though that remains the cornerstone of who we are. We offer an extensive selection of premium meats, including turkey, ham, brisket, and chicken, all prepared with the same attention to quality that has made us famous. Our Market Fresh sandwiches feature fresh vegetables and artisanal breads, while our chicken sandwiches offer options ranging from crispy to grilled, ensuring there's something for every taste preference.
