A midwest thing since 1949
Started by Sally Everett, expanded by her son, and still run by her grandchildren. Our recipes and processes are decades old. Our ingredients are not. We started in Lincoln, Nebraska, then expanded throughout the state and into some neighboring states. To keep it fresh, we choose not to go national.
We say "homemade fresh" sandwiches
We’re up before sunrise preparing the dough, seasoning ground beef with our top-secret blend of spices, and forming it all in to the perfect sandwich you know and love. The Runza® Sandwich features fresh-baked bread stuffed with ground beef, onions, our secret blend of spices, and yes, cabbage.
We love our sides
Crinkle Fries
Our fries are classic crinkle-cut and oh so good.
Onion Rings
Our onion rings are homemade and double dipped.
Frings™
Why choose? Truly the best of both worlds.
And then there are the burgers!
Whoa. Hand-pressed patties. Buns from a local bakery. Fresh toppings. It’s getting hard to look at this delicious…
We really like making fresh, homemade food
If we didn't say that already. Our team members take pride in the food we make. Sometimes our food takes a tiny but longer, but that's because we make it from scratch and with love. How much do we love it?
We love our ranch!
Ask someone about us. Most likely, they'll rave about our Homemade Ranch. Made in our stores each morning from scratch. Everything on our menu goes great with Ranch…well, except ice cream.
Now it's time to introduce Runza® Rex!
This is our mascot, Runza® Rex. He is a dinosaur. We don’t fully know why. But kids love him. Which reminds us, we have Kids Meals. And grown-up meals, which kids are also welcome to eat.
And last but certainly not least!
Every winter we pretty much give away Runza® sandwiches! Tuesdays in Januaryare Temperature Tuesdays®. The temperature at 6 a.m. is the price of a Runza® Sandwich that day. What a deal!
And that's what we're about!
