Great Wraps served its first hot wrapped sandwich in 1974, providing customers with a quick alternative to hamburgers. Today the company offers a menu that includes tortilla and pita wraps, cheesesteaks and smoothies.
Mandler's is the greatest thing to hit the quick-serve restaurant scene -- and franchising! Mandler's offers proprietary recipes for European-style sausages, grilled fresh and served on our own power-baked bread rolls, along with delicious side dishes and refreshing drinks, in a chic and appealing atmosphere.
