The offer is available at participating U.S. restaurants, but local prices and participation can vary. Here’s what comes with the meal, how to order it and what to know before you buy.

If you want to compare the burger with other sandwiches, visit our Wendy’s menu with prices and calories. You can also browse our Wendy’s lunch and dinner menu for more meal options. For a head-to-head against McDonald’s flagship, see Dave’s Single vs Big Mac.

One thing to remember: The 560-calorie figure is for Dave’s Single alone, not the complete combo. The meal’s total calories depend on the fries, drink and selected beverage size.

The Small combo is 1,000 calories and the Medium is 1,170 calories (Wendy’s U.S. ordering menu).

When Did the $7.99 Dave’s Single Combo Launch?

Wendy’s announced the deal on October 19, 2026, describing it as a limited-time offer at participating U.S. restaurants. The company’s announcement did not specify a final date for the promotion.

The meal can be ordered through participating restaurants, at the drive-thru, on Wendy’s website or through the Wendy’s app. Availability may differ from one restaurant to another, so check the offer at your chosen location before placing an order.

Wendy’s $7.99 Combo: Rules and Restrictions

The advertised price is not a guarantee that every restaurant will offer the meal under identical conditions. Wendy’s published terms include the following restrictions:

  • Participating restaurants only: Not every U.S. location is guaranteed to take part.
  • Limited-time offer: The launch announcement does not give a confirmed nationwide end date.
  • No substitutions: The published offer does not allow substitutions within the combo.
  • No combining with other offers or discounts: The official terms exclude combining this deal with other offers or discounts.
  • Delivery may cost more: Prices may be higher for delivery orders.
  • Local prices can vary: Confirm the price shown by your selected restaurant before paying.

These are the terms stated in Wendy’s launch announcement. If you are ordering through a third-party delivery service, check the final price and any delivery charges separately.

Looking for other ways to save? See our Wendy’s deals and coupons guide for other promotions and app offers. Each deal has its own eligibility rules, and the $7.99 combo cannot be combined with another offer or discount under its published terms.

Is Wendy’s $7.99 Dave’s Single Combo a Good Deal?

If you were already planning to order a Dave’s Single, fries and a drink, the combo gives you all three items under one advertised price. That makes it a straightforward option for a full lunch or dinner without ordering each component separately.

Whether it saves you money depends on the prices at your local restaurant. Individual menu prices differ by location, and the price displayed on a menu website may not match what you see when ordering.

$7.99

What that covers: Dave’s Single + small Hot & Crispy Fries + small soft drink, at participating locations.

For a fair comparison, check the prices of all three items at the same restaurant. Compare the regular total with the combo price before tax and any applicable delivery charges.

How much could you save?

There is no single savings figure that applies to every Wendy’s restaurant. To work it out, add the local price of Dave’s Single, small fries and a small drink, then subtract $7.99 from that total.

For example, if those three items normally cost $10.00 in total at your restaurant, the advertised combo would be $2.01 less before tax and any applicable fees. This is an example calculation, not a claim about nationwide menu prices.

Before ordering, compare the offer with the regular menu on our Wendy’s menu page. If you’re considering a different meal, our lunch and dinner guide can help you compare other sandwiches and combos.
