$9.49 for the Dave's Combo, and the same $9.49 whichever Dave's burger goes into it.
One combo price covers three burgers. The Wendy's Dave's Single meal price is $9.49, which is the figure the company also puts on the Dave's Double and the Dave's Triple, so the smallest burger in the line buys the least for it. Measured against the $6.79 typically charged for the burger alone, the fries and the drink work out at $2.70. No calorie total is published for the meal.

If something goes wrong
Is the Dave's Combo the same price for the Single and the Double?
- Cause
- Yes. Wendy's lists one Dave's Combo at $9.49 and applies it across the line, so the burger inside it changes and the meal price does not.
- Fix
- Order the largest burger in the line that you will actually finish. The Triple inside the same combo costs nothing extra at the meal level.
How much do the fries and drink add to a Dave's Single?
- Cause
- Against the $6.79 the burger typically cost across published US price lists, the $9.49 combo leaves $2.70 for the sides. Against the company's own $8.13 listing the gap is $1.36.
- Fix
- Use the $2.70 figure for budgeting, since it is measured against what the listings showed. Check the app for the exact pair of numbers at your restaurant.
How many calories are in a Dave's Single meal?
- Cause
- No figure is published for the meal. The company counts the burger at 560 calories and gives no total for combos anywhere in the burger section.
- Fix
- Add the burger to whatever the chosen side and drink carry. The company publishes fries and soft drinks as size ranges rather than single values.
The combo cost more than $9.49
- Cause
- Franchisees run most Wendy's restaurants in the United States and price their own boards, and combo prices move with the burger underneath them.
- Fix
- Treat $9.49 as the national listing and check the app before ordering. Recorded prices for the burger alone ran from $3.79 to $8.13 in the same month.
One combo price, three burgers, and the one that gains least
There is no separate combo for each burger in the Dave's line. A single Dave's Combo at $9.49 covers the line, so the Single, the Double and the Triple all arrive at the counter carrying the same meal figure. That is awkward for anyone ordering the smallest of the three, because the flat rate hands the biggest saving to whoever orders the biggest burger.
What's in it
The burger, a side and a drink. Fries on their own are listed from $1.19 to $3.39 depending on size and soft drinks from $2.29 to $3.29, so the two together run from roughly $3.48 at the smallest sizes to $6.68 at the largest. No calorie figure is published for the meal as a whole, only for the burger inside it, which the company counts at 560.
Is it worth it
Start from what the burger actually costs. Across published US price lists in August 2026 the Single was recorded with a middle of $6.79, and $9.49 minus $6.79 leaves $2.70 for the sides. That is fair at mid-size and poor at the smallest sizes, where the same two items list for less bought separately.
Now compare it against the rest of the line. Dave's Double and Dave's Triple both carry tied middles, so the same $9.49 buys their sides for less again. Ordering the Single inside this combo is the most expensive way to use it, and anyone who was going to eat a bigger burger anyway is being paid to trade up. That is the shape of it. Someone who wants the smallest burger and a full tray of sides is the one customer this pricing does not serve.
One oddity sits behind the burger price on the table above. The company's own listing shows $8.13 for the Single, higher than the figures it shows for the two larger burgers, and the Dave's Single page takes that up in full. Whichever figure applies, the combo price does not move: $9.49 is $9.49, and the sides are the only thing being bought with the difference. Most US restaurants are franchised and set their own boards, so the combo figure is a national listing rather than a quote. Two restaurants a mile apart can charge different money for an identical tray, and neither of them is doing anything unusual by the standards of this chain.

Questions people ask
Is this page an official Wendy's price list?
No. HelpMeLogin is independent and has no connection to Wendy's. The $9.49 was read from the company's own ordering site, checked on 20 August 2026, and the burger figures beside it a day earlier.
Can this site tell me the price at my local Wendy's?
No. Franchised restaurants set their own prices, so a national listing cannot answer for one address. The Wendy's app gives the combo price for a chosen restaurant.
What comes in a Dave's Single meal?
The burger, a side and a drink. Sizes change the total, which is why the company lists fries and soft drinks as ranges rather than fixed prices.
Is the Dave's Combo worth it on a Single?
At $2.70 over the typical burger price it is reasonable at mid-size and weak at the smallest sizes. On a Triple the same combo adds only 50 cents, which is a far better use of it.
Why does the burger show $8.13 on the table above?
That is the figure Wendy's own ordering site displayed on 19 August 2026, above the price it showed for the Double and the Triple. Recorded prices across published US price lists had their middle at $6.79.
