The pizza brand brings its bold new sandwiches to an activation inspired by your favorite deli

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--To debut its new Oven-Toasted Sandwiches, Papa Johns is bringing a one-day “Papa Johns Deli” pop-up to Los Angeles, serving bold, indulgent sandwiches inspired by classic neighborhood delis.

The experience puts the spotlight on the brand’s new Oven-Toasted Sandwiches – Philly Cheesesteak, Chicken Bacon Ranch, and Steak & Mushroom - plus a few unexpected surprises for fans who stop by. Guests can walk in, grab a sandwich, and taste the hype for themselves. No gimmicks. No over-explaining. Just indulgent sandwiches packed with bold flavor, served exactly the way they’re meant to be enjoyed.

“We love our fans, and that means continuing to raise the bar on how we bring Papa Johns flavor to life in ways that feel fresh, fun, and worth showing up for,” said Shivram Vaideeswaran, Senior Vice President of Brand Marketing at Papa Johns. “Our Oven‑Toasted Sandwiches are about taking something familiar and making it feel new again, with the quality and care people expect from us. From our bid for a MICHELIN star and our star-worthy dining experience in New York, to our surprise Sourdough Pizza ‘Father of Jack’ restaurant takeover in London, we’ve been finding creative ways to bring Better Ingredients. Better Pizza. to life — and this is the next step in expanding that experience beyond the pizza box.”
