Culver’s Kids’ Meals Menu With Prices (2026)
Culver’s kids’ meals are built on a simple idea: smaller portions of the same fresh food the adults are eating, not a separate frozen kids’ menu. Every meal comes with an entrée, a side, a drink, and — the part kids actually remember — a scoop of frozen custard. It’s one of the better kids’ deals in fast food.
Prices are approximate 2026 averages and vary by location.

What’s in the Box
The format is consistent: pick the entrée, get a side (usually fries or applesauce), a kid-size drink, and a scoop of vanilla or chocolate custard for dessert. The portions are genuinely kid-sized — not a shrunken afterthought, but scaled so a typical kid finishes it. The tenders meal and the cheeseburger meal are the two that basically never get sent back.
Why Parents Rate It
Two things set it apart: the food is the same fresh stuff from the main menu, just smaller — no mystery nuggets — and the included custard scoop means you’re not buying dessert separately. At around $6.30 all-in, it’s priced with the value-menu crowd while eating like the adult menu. The applesauce side option is there for parents who want to dodge the fries battle, and it works.
Ordering Tips
The custard scoop comes in vanilla or chocolate — ask, because some kids have strong opinions and the default varies. If you’ve got two kids, the tenders meal splits surprisingly well with an extra side. And for the drive-thru crowd: kids’ meals travel fine, but eat the custard first. It waits for no one.
For Picky Eaters
The grilled cheese kids’ meal is the universal safe choice — no surprises, familiar flavors, and the custard seals the deal. The corn dog meal is the fun pick for kids who want something different. And here’s a parent trick: the tenders meal with applesauce instead of fries covers protein, a side you’ll feel good about, and dessert, all in one box. Most locations will happily swap the side; just ask when ordering.
