Hours and Breakfast
Opening and closing patterns, how much later the drive thru runs, the breakfast changeover and the location types that ignore all of it.
No. Restaurants inside malls, airports, universities, stadiums and travel plazas follow the host site's schedule instead of the standard pattern. A mall location often opens after 10:00 AM and closes when the mall does, which leaves a very short breakfast window. The hours page covers both the standard pattern and these exceptions.
About an hour at most restaurants. A location locking the lobby at midnight normally keeps taking drive thru orders until 1:00 AM, and Friday and Saturday push that to 2:00 AM. The full lunch and dinner menu stays available for the whole of that window.
Not at most restaurants. The grill and fryers run the breakfast line until the changeover, so burgers, French Fries and Frosty only become available once lunch service starts. Seasoned Potatoes at $2.24 are the morning stand in for fries. Exact timing sits on the breakfast hours page.
Breakfast runs on its own equipment: egg rings, a biscuit oven and a separate fryer for Seasoned Potatoes. Keeping both lines going at once would cost kitchen space and slow the lunch rush, so the restaurant breaks the breakfast station down at the cutoff.
Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day, when most restaurants close entirely, plus the four dates that commonly run shortened hours: New Year's Day, Independence Day, Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. Every one of them is dated for this year in the table on the hours page.
A small number, mostly near interstate exits and in dense urban areas where late night demand supports the staffing. It is not the standard build, and the only reliable way to confirm one near you is the official location finder.

Nutrition and Allergens
Which items carry the most calories and the most protein, what a full meal adds up to, and where the allergen answers actually have to come from.
The Nuggs Party Pack at 2,340 calories is the heaviest item on the menu. Among standard single sandwiches, the Big Bacon Classic Triple at 1,140 calories leads.
Dave's Triple at $7.99 leads on protein per dollar, at roughly 9.0 grams for every dollar spent. Chili at $4.26 runs it close and carries 25 grams for only 370 calories, a ratio no sandwich on the menu matches.
Chili at $4.26 is the strongest single choice: 25 grams of protein for 370 calories. The Grilled Chicken Wrap at $5.99 and 420 calories is the lightest full sandwich, and Apple Bites at 35 calories are the lightest side.
A combo has no fixed figure because the side and drink are your choice. Dave's Single at 560 calories with medium fries and a medium Coca-Cola comes to about 1,230. Build your exact order in the nutrition calculator.
Yes. Wendy's publishes calories, protein, carbohydrate, fat, saturated fat, sodium and sugar for every standard item. This site carries those figures for 68 items and calorie counts for 116.
There is no vegetarian burger patty on the United States menu. The vegetarian friendly items are French Fries, Seasoned Potatoes, a plain or cheese baked potato, Apple Bites, the Frosty lineup, cookies and drinks. The Taco Salad and chili both contain beef.
Wendy's publishes allergen data per item on its official site, and most standard items list milk, soy, wheat and egg where they apply. Anyone with a serious allergy should confirm at the restaurant, since shared fryers and prep surfaces create cross contact risk. See the official nutrition and allergen page.
Yes at most restaurants. Fries, nuggets and other fried items share fryer capacity, so fries are not suitable for anyone avoiding contact with chicken or fish products. Baked potatoes are the safer starch side for that reason.

Ordering and Deals
What sits inside a Biggie Bag, how rewards and delivery pricing work, and what this site can and cannot help you with.
It depends on the bundle. A Biggie Bag at $7.32 comes in below the same four items bought on their own, while a standard combo usually lands within a dollar of its parts. The deals page shows the exact math for three bundles side by side.
Bundles are promotional rather than fixed menu lines, so Wendy's shifts the price tier as costs and competition change, and each franchisee chooses which national promotion to run. That is why a bundle advertised at one price nationally can ring up differently at your restaurant. The deals page tracks the current tier.
Wendy's Rewards runs inside the mobile app. Purchases earn points that convert into free menu items, and separate weekly offers appear alongside them. Points apply to app orders and to in restaurant orders when you scan the code at the counter.
Yes, through the Wendy's app and through the major delivery platforms. Delivery menu prices run above the in restaurant board, so pickup through the app is the cheaper route when you can collect the order yourself.
A small independent editorial team compiles the data and writes every page. The site is funded by display advertising and takes no payment from Wendy's or any restaurant company for coverage, positioning or wording. The full sourcing method is on the about page.
Send it through the contact page with the item name and the price you saw. Corrections are the top reason people write in, and they get applied at the next rebuild.
