Applebee’s 2 for $25 official ordering builder has displayed two side salads as an alternative to one appetizer, while premium entrée selections show their additional charge before ordering.

Applebee’s 2 for $25 Menu With Prices

The tables below reflect choices displayed in Applebee’s official online 2 for $25 builder during the current review. Because the ordering system is location-sensitive, this should be treated as a current menu snapshot rather than a guaranteed list for every Applebee’s restaurant.

Price clarification: The dollar amounts shown beside premium entrées are additional charges within the 2 for $25 bundle, not the regular standalone price of each entrée.

2 for $25 Appetizer Choices

The Applebee’s 2 for $25 Menu includes several appetizer choices, from Boneless Wings and Mozzarella Sticks to Spinach & Artichoke Dip.

Starter Choice	Deal Upcharge Shown	Calories Shown
Boneless Wings	None shown	660 Cal
Crunchy Onion Rings	None shown	1,330 Cal
Mozzarella Sticks	None shown	860 Cal
Spinach & Artichoke Dip	None shown	990 Cal
Two Side Salads	None shown	Varies
Bacon Cheeseburger Wonton Tacos	Verify locally	720 Cal

The official builder recently displayed all of these selections. However, Bacon Cheeseburger Wonton Tacos need extra caution: Applebee’s July 13 announcement said their 2 for $25 promotional availability ran through August 16, 2026, even though the item continued to appear on Applebee’s menu and promotional pages around this update.

Is Applebee’s 2 for $25 really $25?

Yes, $25 is the advertised base price for the qualifying bundle. Applebee’s national Offers page currently describes the promotion as one full-size appetizer and two whole entrées for $25.

Your final bill can still exceed $25 because of:

• Premium entrée upcharges
• Drinks
• Extra sides or add-ons
• Item customizations that cost extra
• Tax
• Gratuity
• Local pricing differences

For example, choosing a 6 oz. Top Sirloin with a +$5 upcharge would bring the bundle to $30 before tax, gratuity, or any other extras, based on the builder snapshot.

That does not automatically mean you ordered a separate nationwide “2 for $30” promotion. It can simply mean your $25 bundle includes a premium upgrade.

Why Do Some Applebee’s Menus Show 2 for $30 Instead of 2 for $25?

The current national Applebee’s offer is 2 for $25. Applebee’s main Offers page promotes the $25 deal and describes it as one full-size appetizer plus two entrées.

However, 2 for $30 still appears on some restaurant listings and third-party ordering platforms. For example, DoorDash listings for some Applebee’s restaurants show a dedicated 2 for $30 category or “1 Appetizer + 2 Full Size Entrées (2 for $30),” while noting that the merchant sets menu prices.

This means you should distinguish between:

National promotion: Applebee’s currently advertises 2 for $25.

Local or third-party menu: A restaurant or ordering platform may display $30 or another price.

Premium $25 combination: Selecting an entrée with an upcharge can also bring a $25 bundle to $30 or more.

So if you search for the Applebee’s 2 for $25 & $30 menu, the most useful answer is not that both are identical nationwide offers. The actual price depends on where and how you order.

How Much Money Can You Save With Applebee’s 2 for $25 Deal?

There is no single nationwide savings figure because regular Applebee’s item prices differ by location. Current official menu results show the same à la carte items at different prices depending on the selected restaurant.

A simple way to check the value at your location is:

Regular appetizer price + regular price of Entrée 1 + regular price of Entrée 2 − actual 2 for $25 bundle total = estimated savings

Remember to include any premium upcharges before comparing the deal with separate ordering.

For the most accurate comparison, use the regular menu and deal menu from the same Applebee’s location rather than mixing national or third-party prices.

Where Is Applebee’s 2 for $25 Available Near You?

Applebee’s currently promotes the 2 for $25 deal nationally, and its main Offers page describes it as “here to stay.” Individual restaurant pages also advertise the promotion, but Applebee’s consistently notes that price, participation, and selection may vary.

Is the 2 for $25 Available All Day?

Applebee’s national offer information does not provide one universal nationwide start and end time for every restaurant.

Instead of assuming the deal follows the same lunch or dinner schedule everywhere, check your selected restaurant’s current menu and ordering availability.

Is the 2 for $25 Available at Every Applebee’s?

The promotion is advertised nationally, but that does not mean every restaurant must offer the same items, upcharges, or ordering options.

Applebee’s qualifies the promotion with language that price, participation, and selection may vary.

How to Check Applebee’s 2 for $25 Near You

You can confirm the current deal in four steps:

1. Find your nearest Applebee’s restaurant.
2. Open that location’s current menu or online ordering page.
3. Check the qualifying appetizer, entrée choices, and premium upcharges.
4. Confirm the final price and available ordering method before checkout.

This local check is the easiest way to resolve differences between $25, $30, premium upgrades, promotional menu items, and restaurant-specific availability.

Dine-In, Takeout, and Delivery Availability

The ordering method should also be checked locally.

Applebee’s website supports takeout and delivery, and the July promotional version of the 2 for $25 specifically allowed the deal for dine-in, to-go, and delivery through August 16. Current restaurant and delivery pages, however, make clear that availability and participation can vary by location.

Because offer terms can change with each promotion, the safest rule is:

Select your restaurant first, then confirm whether its current 2 for $25 can be ordered for dine-in, pickup, curbside, or delivery.

This is especially important if a third-party app displays a different bundle price.

Applebee’s 2 for $25 Calories and Nutrition

The total calories in a applebee’s 2-for-$25 order depend heavily on the starter and entrées selected.

In the official builder snapshot, appetizers with listed calories ranged from 660 calories for Boneless Wings to 1,330 calories for Crunchy Onion Rings. Entrées ranged from 510 calories for the California Grilled Chicken Salad to 1,410 calories for several higher-calorie selections.

The important distinction is that the calorie figures in the menu tables are for individual listed items, not for the complete two-person bundle.

For example, a full order could include:

• One shared appetizer
• Entrée for Diner 1
• Entrée for Diner 2
• Drinks or extras

Those components should not be treated as one individual serving.

Applebee’s also notes that a standard 2,000-calorie daily intake is used only for general nutrition advice and individual calorie needs vary.

Example 2 for $25 Meal Combinations

These examples are based on the deal structure and upcharges shown in Applebee’s official builder snapshot. They are examples rather than subjective rankings.

Example No-Upcharge Combination

The two entrées showed no additional deal upcharge in the builder snapshot, keeping the combination at the advertised base price before tax, gratuity, and extras.

Example Lower-Calorie Entrée Combination

The Applebee’s 2 for $25 Menu can also help diners compare entrée choices by calories, price, and meal preference.
Lower-calorie combinations may include grilled chicken or sirloin options, while upgrades can slightly increase the final deal price.

For diners comparing the listed entrée calories:

• California Grilled Chicken Salad — 510 Cal
• 6 oz. Top Sirloin — 560 Cal, +$5

These are two of the lower-calorie entrée choices shown in the builder, although the sirloin raises the bundle price.

Example Premium Combination

• 6 oz. Top Sirloin — +$5
• Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp — +$7

Together, those premium selections add $12 to the $25 base bundle, producing a $37 food subtotal before tax, gratuity, drinks, or other extras based on the displayed upcharges.

These examples show why checking both price and upcharge is more useful than looking only at the Applebee’s “2 for $25” name.
