What Comes with Dave’s Combo?
A standard Dave’s Combo includes:
- Dave’s Single burger (patty count can be upgraded to Double or Triple)
- A side item — typically medium natural-cut fries, though other sides may be swappable depending on location
- A drink of your choice — fountain soda, iced tea, lemonade, or similar
Ingredients
The Dave’s Single combines a seasoned beef patty, a slice of American cheese, crisp lettuce, tomato, pickle, sliced onion, ketchup, mustard, and mayo on a potato bun. Wendy’s full official ingredient statement, including sub-ingredients for each component, is available through its nutrition and allergen tool rather than reprinted here.
What Is Wendy’s Dave’s Combo?
Dave’s Combo pairs the Dave’s Single burger with a side of fries and a drink, giving you a complete meal in one order instead of building it piece by piece. It’s part of Wendy’s standard national combo lineup, not a limited-time offer, so it’s available at participating U.S. locations year-round.
Dave’s Single Ingredients and Toppings
According to Wendy’s official product page, the Dave’s Single is built with a quarter-pound (weighed before cooking) of fresh, never-frozen beef, American cheese, crisp lettuce, tomato, pickle, ketchup, mustard, mayo, and onion, all served on a potato bun.
Side and Drink Options Available
Standard combo sides come with natural-cut fries but some locations may exchange for things like chili or a side salad for an additional price. Drinks include Coca-Cola products, lemonade, iced tea and bottled water, but offerings will vary each establishment.
Customization Options
Dave’s Combo can be modified through the app, website, or in-restaurant: toppings can be added or removed, the patty can be upgraded to Double or Triple, and the side or drink can often be swapped for other menu options, sometimes at an additional cost.
Ordering Instructions
You can find Dave’s Combo in-restaurant, drive-thru, on the Wendy’s app, on wendys.com or on third party delivery platforms. The best approach to view real-time pricing and availability for your location is normally to order via the official app or website.
Current Offers or Deals Rewards
Wendy’s Rewards members can earn points on purchases and the app often includes rotating specials on combinations and individual items. These bargains can vary often and are not fixed so rather than rely on some static campaign, look at the “Offers” page on the app to see what the current offers are in your area.

Dave’s Combo vs. Dave’s Single
Ordering just the Dave’s Single gets you the burger alone, while Dave’s Combo bundles it with fries and a drink — typically at a small savings compared to buying all three items separately, though this depends on your location’s pricing.
Dave’s Combo vs. Baconator Combo
The Baconator Combo centers on a heavier, bacon-forward burger with two patties, cheese, and six bacon strips, generally landing higher in calories than the Dave’s Single-based combo. Dave’s Combo leans toward classic, fresher toppings like lettuce and tomato rather than an all-out indulgent build.
Dave’s Combo vs. Dave’s Double Combo
The Dave’s Double Combo swaps in a two-patty, two-cheese-slice burger with the same toppings as the Single, roughly doubling the beef and cheese content and increasing both calories and price accordingly.
Dave’s Combo – Is It Worth It?
If you want a simple, no-frills fast-food meal with fresh (never frozen) beef, the Dave’s Combo is a decent, dependable choice—not the most luxurious thing on the menu, but a full meal without the extras.
