Subway Drinks Menu UK 2026 – Full List, Prices & Calories

No Subway order feels finished without something to wash it down, and the Subway drinks line-up is bigger than most people realise. Yes, there’s the fridge of Coke and Fanta bottles everyone grabs on autopilot. But there’s also iced tea, juice, water, kids’ drinks and a proper little hot drinks menu hiding at the breakfast end of the counter.

This page lists the full range with prices and calories, matching the drinks table on our main menu. Most bottled drinks sit at £2.79, sharing bottles cost a bit more, and hot drinks start from £1.50. Local prices can wander a little between branches, so use this as your guide before you order.

Subway Drinks at a Glance

The range splits into three groups. Bottled drinks are the fridge staples: colas, Fanta, Sprite Zero, Dr Pepper and friends, mostly in 500ml bottles plus a couple of big sharing sizes. Then you’ve got the lighter shelf, juices, iced tea, Oasis and bottled water. Finally, hot drinks: coffee, tea, lattes, cappuccinos and hot chocolate, made at the counter.

Plenty of stores also run a dispensed drinks machine with free-flowing cups in a couple of sizes. Availability depends on the branch, and the bottled range is the one you’ll find everywhere, so that’s what the price table below focuses on.

Subway Drinks Prices

Here is the bottled range exactly as listed on our menu pages, calories included:

Notice how flat the pricing is. Nearly everything in a 500ml bottle is £2.79, with original Coca-Cola the odd one out at £2.99. That makes choosing easy: pick on flavour and calories, not on price, because there’s barely a penny between most of them.

Fizzy Favourites

Coca-Cola Original is the bestseller and the most calorific bottle in the fridge at 215 calories. Coke Zero and Diet Coke give you the same cola hit for 2 calories, which is why they’ve quietly taken over. The Cherry version of Coke Zero is worth a try if plain cola bores you; it tastes like a treat without the sugar.

Fanta Orange and Dr Pepper split the crowd. Fanta is sweet, bright and made for spicy subs, while Dr Pepper’s famous 23 flavours either delight you or confuse you, no middle ground. Sprite Zero is the crisp one: lemon-lime, zero sugar, and only 6 calories, so it refreshes without filling you up before your footlong arrives.

If two of you are eating, the 1.25L Coke Zero sharing bottle at £3.49 beats two separate 500ml bottles on value, as long as your store stocks it and you’ve got cups sorted.

Juices, Iced Tea and Lighter Options

Tropicana Orange Juice is the breakfast crowd’s drink of choice: 250ml of pure orange juice with no added sugar, at 103 calories. It’s the natural partner for anything on the breakfast menu, and it feels a bit more like food than a fizzy drink does.

Lipton Ice Tea Peach is the sleeper hit of the fridge. Sweet, smooth and not fizzy, so it won’t fight with a heavily sauced sub. Oasis Summer Fruits does a similar job for people who find cola too much at lunchtime.

And then there’s Princes Gate Still Water at £2.59. Zero calories, zero sugar, zero thinking required. If you’re ordering a lighter main like a salad, water keeps the whole meal on track, and honestly, cold water with a spicy sub is an underrated combination.

Hot Drinks at Subway

Plenty of people don’t know Subway does hot drinks until they see someone order one. The counter menu is short and cheap:

A regular tea at £1.50 is one of the cheapest hot drinks on the high street, full stop. The lattes and cappuccinos won’t worry a specialist coffee shop, but at £2.00 they’re fairly priced, hot and quick, which is all most of us want at 8 in the morning. Hot chocolate is the indulgent one, especially the large, and it pairs suspiciously well with a warm cookie from the cookies range if the day calls for it.

Drinks for Kids

Fruit Shoot Apple & Blackcurrant is the kids’ option: a small 200ml bottle, 10 calories, and no fizzy chaos in the car on the way home. It’s priced at £2.29, the cheapest bottle on the menu.

For older kids, the juice and water options stretch further than the small bottle does. If your branch offers a kids’ pack or meal, the drink is usually bundled in, which works out better than buying the Fruit Shoot separately alongside a mini sub.

Which Drink Goes Best with Your Sub?

A few pairings just work. Spicy subs, anything with chipotle or jalapeños, love something sweet and cold: Fanta Orange or Lipton Peach tea take the heat down a notch. Rich, cheesy orders like a B.M.T. or a SubMelt cut through better with something sharp and fizzy, so Coke Zero or Sprite Zero earns its place.

Lighter meals want lighter drinks. A salad with water or iced tea keeps lunch feeling fresh, while a tuna sub with a Diet Coke is a classic for a reason. And breakfast subs with Tropicana or a £2.00 latte is the combination half the morning queue is ordering.

There’s no wrong answer here, but matching a heavy meal with a 215-calorie full-sugar Coke is how a reasonable lunch quietly becomes a feast. The Zero bottles exist precisely so you don’t have to think about that.

Saving Money on Subway Drinks

The single best trick is the meal deal. Adding a drink and a side to your sub as a bundle nearly always costs less than buying that £2.79 bottle separately at the till, and our deals guide shows the maths on the popular combos.

Second trick: share the big bottle. Two 500ml bottles cost £5.58, while the 1.25L sharing bottle is £3.49. It also helps to decide your drink before you reach the till. The fridge sits right where you queue, and that’s no accident; most people grab whatever catches their eye in the last ten seconds. Knowing you’re a Coke Zero person, or that water does the job today, stops the impulse upgrade to the big sharing bottle you’ll never finish. Small habit, but over a month of lunches it adds up.

Third, skip the premium impulse buys. A drink from the Saver-priced parts of the menu mindset applies here too: water or a meal deal drink does the same job for less. And if your store has a dispensed machine with refills while you eat in, that’s the best-value sip in the building.

Subway Drinks on Delivery Apps

Order through a delivery app and the drinks shelf looks familiar, but the prices often aren’t. The same 500ml bottle that’s £2.79 in store tends to be listed higher on Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat, before delivery and service fees land on top. Nobody’s doing anything underhand; the apps take their cut, and the mark-up is how a lot of stores cover it.

The gap tends to show up across the whole menu, so if cost matters, the smart split is this: order your sub for collection in the Subway app, where the prices match the board, and accept that a delivered bottle is a convenience you’re paying for. If you are ordering delivery anyway, the 1.25L sharing bottle is still usually the best-value drink on the order, because one big bottle covers two or three glasses instead of everyone paying for a separate one.

One more delivery quirk: hot drinks travel badly. A latte that sits in a rider’s bag for twenty minutes arrives lukewarm at best, so stick to bottled drinks on delivery and save the coffee for when you’re actually in the shop.

Final Thoughts

Subway drinks don’t need much thought, and that’s the point. Pick a Zero bottle if you’re watching calories, Tropicana or a latte at breakfast, water with a salad, and fold the drink into a meal deal whenever you can. The full list is short, the prices are fair, and now you know exactly what each one costs before you reach the till.
