Combo meals draw heavy traffic from young adults and families. Without much effort, you can take the same items on your menu, bundle them together in a way that appeals to indecisive customers and yields you more profit.
Get Started
Select your top selling lunch items and pair them with a popular side dish and beverage. Limit the combo selections to keep it simple. You will notice that most of the national chain quick-serve restaurants keep it less than 10 per meal. Keep your combo meals consistent week in, week out.
If you normally sell:
- Sandwich for $5.95
- Fries for $1.95
- Medium Soda $1.50
This would cost $9.40 – you can offer the combo meal for $8.95. Another very popular combo is ½ and ½:
- Get a small salad with ½ a sandwich
- Get a cup of soup with ½ a sandwich or a small salad
- Again add a soda for a combo price
If you normally sell:
- Full size sandwich for $5.95 (1/2 for $3.00)
- Salad for $2.95
- Soup Cup $2.95
- Medium Soda $1.50
The ½ and ½ plus soda at normal price would be $7.45 – offer the combo for $7.50 or even $7.95 and make more money. They will order this for the convenience of having a variety.
