The Arby's on Gammon Road is now a deli with a wide-ranging menu that includes bratwurst and gyros.

Longtime Arby's franchisee Kevin Breitfelder closed his Arby's at 601 S. Gammon Road last week and opened Sliced Deli Tuesday.

He painted the outside of the building so it has a new color scheme, and he decided to open before completing interior renovations. "I wanted to get it going and get any kinks worked out of the system," he said.

Breitfelder, 50, had spent 27 years working for Arby's, taking over ownership from the original franchisee in 2003.

"It was time to move on to something that was more me, I guess. More independence, more decision-making," he said.

Breitfelder said he had more control over the business in the earlier days, back in the early 2000s. In recent years the chain became more corporate and there were fewer decisions he could make on his own, he said.

The Sliced signature item is a build-your-own sandwich. Customers choose their favorite meat: roast turkey, roast ham, roast chicken, corned beef, shaved steak, pastrami or salami. They decide if they want their sandwich hot or cold.
