Today is the day… the start of our Road Trip! 🚗🗺️ To celebrate the growth of The Saxbys Experiential Learning Platform in three new regions (Pittsburgh, Ohio & New Jersey) we created a new Grilled Cheese and Cold Brew based drink pairing inspired by each region’s cultures and traditions!
📍 Our Disco Tot Grilled Cheese celebrates the classic diner dish that tops potato tots with gravy and cheese, YUM! Pair that with a Blueberry Muffin Cold Brew for a taste of New Jersey.
📍 Our Pierogi Grilled Cheese and Pizzelle Cold Brew both celebrate gifts that were first introduced to the US by immigrants starting anew in Pittsburgh!
📍 For a Saxbys twist on some Ohio favs, meet our state fair inspired Ohio Shredded Chicken Grilled Cheese and chocolate-y Buckeye Daily Grind.
