10 Pieces Cauliflower Tender Bites with Fries | Price, Calories & Full Details
$10.49 – 840 Calories
Cauliflower bites served with a slice of bread and side of Dave’s sauce
The 10 Pieces Cauliflower Tender Bites with Fries is the most unique format in the Dave’s Not Chicken lineup. At $10.49 and 840 calories, it gives you ten bite-sized cauliflower pieces plus a full portion of seasoned fries, all at the most affordable price point in the cauli combos. The bite format is fundamentally different from the slider and full tender format. Each piece is small enough to eat in one or two bites, which changes how you experience the spice coating because each bite delivers a full dose of seasoning without a bun or bread to slow it down.
This combo is also the best value in the Dave’s Not Chicken menu on a per dollar basis. At $10.49 for ten pieces and fries, it undercuts the 1 Cauli Slider with Fries at $12.49 by $2.00 while giving you significantly more pieces, more fiber, and a sharing format that none of the other cauli combos provide. For groups or anyone who wants to sample the spice experience across multiple small pieces rather than committing to a single slider or tender, the bite format makes the most sense.

Ten individual bite-sized pieces mean the spice coating is applied across a larger total surface area than a single slider or tender. This makes the heat delivery more consistent across the whole portion, but it also means higher heat levels feel more intense when you eat several pieces in a row.
Allergen Information
The 10 Pieces Cauliflower Tender Bites with Fries contains wheat and gluten in the cauliflower batter. Eggs are present in the batter coating. Soy is in the frying oil used for both the cauliflower bites and the fries. Unlike the slider combos, there is no bun in this item, so dairy is not a direct ingredient in the cauliflower bites themselves.
This item is not egg-free or suitable for anyone with a wheat allergy. Dave’s Hot Chicken uses shared fryers and shared kitchen surfaces for all menu items, meaning cross-contamination with dairy, sesame, tree nuts, peanuts, fish, shellfish, and all other major allergens is a genuine risk. For a complete allergen guide, visit the view allergen details page.
Ingredient List
Cauliflower Tender Bites (x10):
- Cauliflower florets (bite-sized pieces)
- Seasoned batter (enriched wheat flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, egg)
- Soybean or canola frying oil
Fries:
- Russet potatoes (skin-on cut)
- Soybean or canola frying oil
- Post-fry seasoning (salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper)
Spice Coating (applied above No Spice):
- Cayenne pepper, brown sugar, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper
- Ghost pepper extract (Extra Hot)
- Carolina Reaper pepper extract (Reaper)
There is no bun, sauce, or pickles included in this item. The batter does contain egg, making it unsuitable for egg-sensitive customers despite being meatless. Ingredient lists may vary slightly by location and supplier.
Spice Levels Available
All ten cauliflower bites in this combo are prepared at the same spice level. Because there is no bun to buffer the heat, the spice experience on each bite is direct and concentrated. Eating ten small pieces in a row at higher spice levels creates a cumulative heat build that is different from eating a single larger piece.
- No Spice — Ten bites of cauliflower with crispy batter and zero chili heat. Good for kids or anyone who wants to sample the cauli format without any spice.
- Lite Mild — A trace of warmth on each piece. Easy to manage across ten bites.
- Mild — Light heat that builds slightly as you work through the ten pieces. Still comfortable for most people.
- Medium — Steady heat that becomes noticeably cumulative by the fifth or sixth piece. The fries help pace the eating at this level.
- Hot — Each bite delivers a full dose of cayenne seasoning with no bun to slow it down. Ten pieces at Hot is a real spice experience for the whole meal.
- Extra Hot — The cumulative effect of ten pieces at Extra Hot is significantly more intense than a single slider at the same level. Use the fries deliberately as a break between bites.
- Reaper — Ten pieces at Reaper is one of the most demanding spice experiences on the Dave’s menu in terms of total spice consumed across a meal. Not recommended for anyone who has not already handled Extra Hot comfortably.
What Makes 10 Pieces Cauliflower Tender Bites with Fries Worth Ordering
At $10.49, the 10 Pieces Cauliflower Tender Bites with Fries is the best value in the Dave’s Not Chicken lineup. It gives you more individual pieces than any other cauli combo, a full portion of fries, and the lowest calorie count of any cauli combo at 840 calories. The bite format also makes it the most shareable cauli option on the menu. Five pieces each for two people alongside the fries is a workable light meal, which none of the slider combos can split as cleanly.
Adding a Large Dave’s Sauce for $2.99 gives you dipping sauce coverage across all ten bites and the fries without running short, since the bites do not come with Dave’s sauce pre-applied the way sliders do. A Side of Cheese Sauce for $0.50 adds a dairy-based heat buffer in dipping form that works particularly well when eating at Hot or above across ten individual pieces.
For comparison with the chicken bites format, see the 10 Pieces Dave’s Bites with Fries which is the chicken equivalent at a different price point. For customers new to the cauli lineup, starting with the Single Cauli Tender or Single Cauli Slider before committing to a ten piece order is a smart approach.
