$5.19 is the cheapest breakfast tray Wendy's lists, built on a $2.99 sandwich.
The Wendy's Egg and Cheese Biscuit Meal price is $5.19, which makes it the cheapest breakfast tray on the list. The sandwich alone is $2.99, so the side and the drink add $2.20, printed as its own row in the table above. That step is nearly three quarters of the sandwich price, the steepest proportional upgrade in the section. Wendy's publishes 370 calories for the biscuit.

If something goes wrong
The upgrade feels expensive on this one
- Cause
- It is, proportionally. $2.20 on a $2.99 sandwich is 74% of the item price again, where the same $2.20 on the $4.49 Breakfast Baconator is 49%.
- Fix
- Buy the sandwich alone if the drink is coming from elsewhere. Against bought-in parts the tray still wins, because a side and a coffee start at $2.98 together.
Which Wendy's breakfast meal is cheapest?
- Cause
- This one at $5.19. The next steps up are $5.89 for either of the two filled biscuit trays and $5.99 for the chicken biscuit.
- Fix
- Add 70 cents to reach a meat build. That takes the sandwich from 370 calories to 420 with bacon or 590 with sausage.
No calorie figure for the tray
- Cause
- A count of 370 is published for the biscuit and nothing for the meal, since the side and the drink are chosen at the point of order.
- Fix
- Add the two extras to 370 by hand. A regular hot coffee is listed at 5 calories, which leaves the side as the only real unknown.
The cheapest tray, and the steepest upgrade on it
$5.19 is the smallest meal price on the Wendy's breakfast list, and the sandwich under it is the cheapest filled build in the section at $2.99. Both facts follow from the same decision: no meat.
What's in it
An Egg & Cheese Biscuit, a side and a drink. The sandwich is a split biscuit with egg and a slice of cheese, rated at 370 calories, which is the lightest filled build on the menu. Nothing is published for the assembled tray. Fat, sodium and protein could not be read for the biscuit either, because that panel is written into the item page by script after the page arrives and returned a placeholder on every read.
Is it worth it
Two answers, depending on which comparison is being made, and they point in opposite directions.
Against the parts, the tray wins as usual. Wendy's prices its breakfast side, Seasoned Potatoes, at $1.59 to $2.39, and a regular hot coffee at $1.39 to $1.89, so the cheapest pair anyone can buy individually is $2.98 against the meal's $2.20. Substitute a cold brew at $2.29 to $3.49 and the gap grows further still.
Against the sandwich, this is the least flattering upgrade on the whole breakfast menu. $2.20 added to a $2.99 item is 74% of the item price over again, where the same step on the $4.49 Breakfast Baconator is 49% and on the $4.39 burritos 50%. The flat step penalises the cheap end. Anyone buying the cheapest sandwich in the section is, by definition, the person least likely to want a $2.20 extension of it.
One reading was taken for the sandwich across published US price lists in August 2026 and it matched the $2.99 listing, so its range cell is empty. Franchisees price their own boards, and the tray price will follow the sandwich wherever it goes.
Eleven trays, and this is the floor of them. $5.19 to $6.69 is the entire range, so the dearest breakfast meal on the list is $1.50 above the cheapest, and the flat upgrade means that whole gap belongs to the sandwiches.
Availability is the last thing to check and no price column can carry it. No finishing time is printed beside any of these figures, breakfast has its own categories on the ordering site, and the changeover to the all-day menu is a local decision. Driving to a restaurant for the cheapest tray in the section is worth a look at the app first.

Questions people ask
Is this page an official Wendy's price list?

Can this site tell me the price at my local Wendy's?
No. No independent site can price a franchised restaurant's menu for it. Pick the location in the Wendy's app and read what it returns for that address.
