$4.99 on one reading, and a whole sub-line of three Melts that Burger King's own data has never listed.
A Burger King classic melt price of $4.99 came from one reading taken in August 2026. Three Melts sit on this menu and none appears in the company's last published nutrition figures, which are dated November 2022 and predate the entire sub-line. So a burger costing 60 cents to a dollar more than the Bacon Double Cheeseburger has no calorie count of any kind.

If something goes wrong
None of the three Melts has a calorie count
- Cause
- The last nutrition figures published by Burger King are dated November 2022. The Melts reached the menu after it, so no row exists for any of them, and nothing has been issued since that would add one.
- Fix
- Treat the whole sub-line as uncounted. Nearest documented builds are the Double Cheeseburger at 400 calories and the Bacon Double Cheeseburger at 440.
A Melt costs more than a double cheeseburger
- Cause
- $4.99 against $3.99 on typical figures, so this one is a dollar dearer than a Bacon Double Cheeseburger carrying two patties, cheese and bacon.
- Fix
- The difference is bread and format rather than filling. Whether toasted bread is worth a dollar is a judgement no published figure can help with.
Only one price is shown for the Classic Melt
- Cause
- Checking in August 2026 found it once, at $4.99. All three Melts were found once each, at $4.99, $4.99 and $5.99.
- Fix
- Take those three figures as a shape rather than a settled set of prices. Each rests on a single reading and none has been corroborated by a second.
A sub-line the company's own data has never seen
Burger King's most recent US nutrition document is dated November 2022. The Melts arrived after it. That one fact explains the empty calorie cells here, on the Bacon Melt page and on the Philly Melt page, and it is a different sort of gap from the one on the Bacon King, where the burger was already on sale when the document went out and still went unlisted.
Nothing has been published since. So an entire sub-line of three items, sold across the US and priced between $4.99 and $5.99, appears in the company's own data not at all. Eight of the fifteen burgers on the flame-grilled list have no calorie figure for one reason or another, and the Melts are the only group where every member arrived too late to be in the last document and none was ever going to be.
What's in it
Beef patties with cheese and sauce, served on toasted bread rather than a bun. That is the format, and the format is the part worth stating plainly, because the bread is what separates a Melt from a cheeseburger. No build sheet has been published, no macro panel exists, and this page will not specify a patty count it cannot verify.
Is it worth it
On price, $4.99 sits a dollar above the Bacon Double Cheeseburger, which was recorded at a typical $3.99 with 440 calories, 27 grams of protein and a full company panel behind it. Whatever the extra dollar buys, documentation is not part of it.
The comparison is imperfect, since bread and format change the eating rather than the arithmetic. Still, the shape of the trade is worth seeing. Below $4.00 this section is well described: five rows with company macro panels, several of them read four or five separate times in a single month. At $4.99 the description stops dead. Every burger at that figure or above, the three Melts and both Kings, carries either a single-source price or a very wide one, and not one of the five has a calorie count of any age.
The three Melt prices imply one more thing. Classic and Bacon were both recorded at $4.99 and the Philly at $5.99, which makes bacon free on this rung and whatever distinguishes the Philly worth a dollar. Each figure rests on one reading, so that shape is suggestive and nothing stronger.

Questions people ask
How much is a Classic Melt at Burger King?
$4.99, on the only reading found in August 2026. The Bacon Melt was recorded at the same figure and the Philly Melt at $5.99, each on one reading as well.
How many calories are in a Classic Melt?
Nothing has been published. The last US nutrition document from Burger King is dated November 2022 and the Melts reached the menu after it, so no first-party row exists for any of the three.
What is the difference between a Melt and a cheeseburger here?
Toasted bread instead of a bun, plus a sauce. No build sheet has been published, so a fuller answer would be guesswork rather than description.
Is this page an official Burger King price list?
No. HelpMeLogin is independent of Burger King and publishes nothing for the company. No US price list is issued by the brand, so the figure above was recorded on 19 August 2026.
Can this site tell me the price at my local Burger King?
No. Most US restaurants are franchised and price their own boards. With one reading behind this burger, the app is the only sensible place to check.
