Best Things to Order at Applebee's
The dishes people keep coming back for, and the little things worth knowing before you order them.
Grilled Cheese Cheeseburger
The most fun burger Applebee’s makes: four slices of American on toasted potato bread, with a cup of tomato basil soup for dipping.
$14.99 · 1,420 calories
Boneless Wings
The most popular starter for a reason: soft inside, crisp outside, and $6.50 at happy hour. Getting them To Go? Ask for the sauce on the side.
$12.99 · 1,080 caloriesQuesadilla Burger
Grilled tortillas instead of a bun, with pico and Mexi-ranch keeping it bright. It’s messy and a little greasy in the best way, so grab extra napkins.
$15.99 · 1,620 calories
Chicken Parmesan Fettuccine
The best pasta on the menu: thick noodles and properly crispy chicken. It reheats better than almost anything else, so it’s the leftovers pick.
$15.99 · 1,480 calories
Mozzarella Sticks
The most consistent appetizer: crisp outside, stretchy inside and rarely greasy. At happy hour they drop to $5.00.
$9.99 · 860 calories
Chicken Quesadilla
The best-value half price app. It’s $6.00 at happy hour, packs 49g of protein, and holds up better in a To Go box than anything fried.
$11.99 · 1,170 calories
Brew Pub Pretzels & Beer Cheese
The best starter for sharing: warm, buttery pretzel sticks with beer cheese and honey Dijon. Order them at happy hour, when the price makes more sense.
$10.99 · 1,160 calories
Whisky Bacon Burger
For sweet and smoky fans. The whisky glaze leans sweet, and the smoked bacon and crispy onions keep it from tasting one-note.
$15.99 · 1,590 calories
Sizzling Caramel Apple Blondie
The dessert to share. A warm blondie with cinnamon apples and vanilla ice cream, with caramel poured over the hot skillet at your table.

Applebee's Happy Hour Times
Happy hour runs 3:00 to 6:00 PM and again from 9:00 PM to close. It's dine-in only. That's when the core appetizers go half price: Mozzarella Sticks drop from $9.99 to $5.00, a Chicken Quesadilla from $11.99 to $6.00, and Boneless Wings from $12.99 to $6.50.
Drink deals are set by each restaurant, and six states ban them outright: Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, North Carolina, Alaska and Utah. Through November 15, 2026, the national drink offer is the $6 Spooky Sips menu instead.
The full happy hour guide covers late night times, which half price app is the best deal, and the Oklahoma rule most lists still get wrong.
Applebee's Drink Menu Prices
Drinks come in three price tiers. Fountain drinks and iced tea cost $2.29 to $2.99. A Dirty Fountain Soda is $3.99. Signature cocktails start at $9.99 for a Mucho Blue Hawaiian and top out at $11.99 for a Top Shelf Long Island Iced Tea.
The exception right now is Halloween. Through November 15, 2026, the Tipsy Zombie and Dracula's Juice are $6, and the Tropical Spell Mocktail is $4. The $1 Dollarita ran in July and isn't back yet. See the cocktail menu or what your bar discounts at happy hour.
Applebee's Menu Calories
Calories on this menu run from 100 for Steamed Broccoli to 2,200 for The Classic Combo, and the heaviest thing you can order is an appetizer, not an entrée. Most entrées land above 1,000.
The side is the easiest number to move. Swap Classic Fries (400 calories) for Steamed Broccoli (100) and you've cut 300 without touching the entrée. Every item's calories, protein and sodium are in the nutrition guide, and the allergen menu filters out milk, wheat, soy and the rest.
How to Order at Applebee's
Where you order decides which deals you get. Half price apps and the new O-M-Cheese-adilla Burger are dine-in only.
Dine-in
The only way to get every promotion on the menu, including happy hour and the 2 for $25 with the O-M-Cheese-adilla Burger.
Carside To Go
Order ahead on the Applebee's app or site, park in a Carside spot, and staff bring the food out. You pay restaurant prices with no delivery fee. Details on takeout.
Delivery
Ordering delivery through Applebee's own app or site gets you the restaurant's menu. DoorDash and Uber Eats set their own item prices and fees on top, so the same order costs more there. Compare them on the delivery page.
Find an Applebee's Near You
Almost every Applebee's is run by a local franchise owner rather than the company itself. That's why the one across town might open later, skip weekend happy hour or charge a little more for the same burger.
So before you head out, look up your restaurant and give it a quick call. It's the easiest way to know tonight's hours and whether the deal you're after is running.
