Prices last updated: November 1, 2026
Accurate, honest numbers are the reason this website exists. This page explains where our Wendy’s prices, nutrition, hours and deals come from, what their limits are and how we correct mistakes.
Where our prices come from
Wendy’s restaurants set their own prices. On November 1, 2026 we read the public carryout menus on order.wendys.com of 8 Wendy’s restaurants, one per city, in a normal browser session without signing in. For each city we searched a downtown ZIP code in Wendy’s restaurant finder and used the nearest public restaurant (skipping hospital, airport and campus locations):
- Atlanta, GA: 660 Boulevard N.E. Atlanta, GA 30308 (lunch and dinner menu)
- Chicago, IL: 1623 W. Division St Chicago, IL 60622 (breakfast menu)
- Columbus, OH: 799 S. High Street Columbus, OH 43206 (lunch and dinner menu)
- Dallas, TX: 4018 Lemmon Ave. Dallas, TX 75219 (lunch and dinner menu)
- Denver, CO: 201 E. 6th Ave Denver, CO 80203 (breakfast menu)
- Los Angeles, CA: 800 S Figueroa St, Suite 103 Los Angeles, CA 90017 (breakfast menu)
- Orlando, FL: 1919 S. Orange Orlando, FL 32806 (lunch and dinner menu)
- Philadelphia, PA: 1515 Chestnut Street Philadelphia, PA 19102 (lunch and dinner menu)
We read the menus at about 11 a.m. Eastern time. Restaurants in the Eastern time zone were already serving lunch, so they give our lunch and dinner prices (5 restaurants); restaurants in Chicago, Denver and Los Angeles were still before 10:30 a.m. local time, so they give our breakfast prices (3 restaurants). Drinks, coffee and bakery items appeared on both menus, so they use up to 8 restaurants. For each item we use the middle price (the lower median) and show the lowest and highest prices we found. For items sold in sizes, the category menu shows the smallest and largest size price; we also opened a few items to record every size (fries in Philadelphia, the Frosty in Columbus, combo upsizes in Philadelphia).
Limits you should know about:
- This is a small sample: 5 restaurants for lunch and 3 for breakfast. Prices at your restaurant may be higher or lower.
- Some items were not on every menu that day: the Frosty was listed by 3 of 5 lunch menus and fountain soft drinks by only one, so those prices rest on fewer restaurants.
- Prices are carryout prices before tax. Delivery can cost more; Wendy’s says prices may be higher for delivery.
- App offers and Wendy’s Rewards prices are not in the typical prices, because we do not sign in.
Where our nutrition, allergens and descriptions come from
Calories, fat, carbohydrates, protein and sodium, allergens and item descriptions come from Wendy’s product pages on order.wendys.com. Calories by size come from Wendy’s order menu. Combo nutrition adds a small fry to the sandwich, without the drink, because Wendy’s combos start with a small fry and small drink. Salad nutrition is Wendy’s value for the salad without dressing, and we show the menu’s as-served calories next to it.
Where our hours come from
Breakfast hours are quoted from Wendy’s breakfast FAQ on wendys.com. Closing times come from Wendy’s restaurant finder: for each of our 8 city searches we recorded the closing time shown for every restaurant listed, 192 in total, on the morning of Sunday, November 1, 2026. We never use a visitor’s location.
Deals
We only describe deals listed on Wendy’s own pages (wendys.com/offers-coupons, wendys.com/mealdeals and wendys.com/rewards) or on the restaurant menus we read, with the date we read them. Offers vary by restaurant and can change at any time.
How often we update
We review prices and deals regularly and whenever Wendy’s changes its menu. Each page shows the date prices were last checked.
Corrections
If you find an error, please tell us through our contact page. We review every report and update pages when the evidence supports a change.
Independence
We are not affiliated with Wendy’s or any Wendy’s restaurant, and we do not accept payment to change prices or recommendations.
