Box of Fries | Price, Calories & Full Details

When you are feeding a group at Dave’s Hot Chicken and a single portion of fries just will not cut it, the Box of Fries is the answer. Priced at $12 and delivering 880 calories in a single shareable box, it is the Feed A Crowd version of the standard fries side, the same seasoned skin-on russet potatoes, just in a dramatically larger quantity designed for multiple people. Think of it as roughly double the portion of a single fries side, built specifically for group ordering situations where everyone at the table wants fries without each person adding a standalone side to their own order.

The Box of Fries occupies a unique spot on the Dave’s menu because it is the only item in the Feed A Crowd section that contains no chicken at all. Every other group item is built around a protein. This one is purely a shareable carbohydrate side, which gives it a specific use case: you are at a table with a Hot Box order, everyone has their tenders or sliders, and you need enough fries to go around without buying individual sides for each person. At $12 for 880 calories across a group of three or four, it works out to a far lower per-person cost than ordering Dave’s Fries separately at $3.99 each.

Box of Fries Price

The Box of Fries is priced at $12 at most Dave’s Hot Chicken locations. That is three times the cost of a single Fries side at $3.99, but you get roughly double the volume, making it a more economical choice once you are ordering for three or more people. Prices may vary slightly depending on location. You can confirm pricing and find your nearest Dave’s Hot Chicken on the Dave’s restaurant locations page.

Box of Fries Calories & Nutrition

At 880 calories for the full box, the Box of Fries contains twice the total calories of a single fries portion at 440 calories. The macros scale proportionally: 12g of protein, 40g of total fat, and 2,400mg of sodium for the entire box. When split across three or four people, the per-person contribution drops to a reasonable level, which is the context this item is designed to be eaten in.

Calorie Comparison — Per Person by Group Size

The per-person calorie contribution drops significantly the larger the group. A single Box of Fries shared across four people adds only 220 calories per person to the meal.

Allergen Information

The Box of Fries does not contain gluten, dairy, or eggs as direct ingredients. The base item is potato, frying oil, and post-fry seasoning only. Soy is present in the frying oil. This makes the fries one of the more accessible items on the Dave’s menu from a direct allergen standpoint.

However, Dave’s Hot Chicken operates shared kitchen environments where all items including heavily breaded and cheese-based products share fryers and prep surfaces. Cross-contamination with gluten, dairy, eggs, sesame, tree nuts, peanuts, fish, shellfish, and all other major allergens is a genuine risk for the Box of Fries despite its clean ingredient list. Customers managing serious food allergies should check the gluten and allergen guide before ordering.

Ingredient List

Box of Fries:

• Russet potatoes (skin-on cut, large format portion)
• Soybean or canola frying oil

Post-Fry Seasoning Blend:

• Salt
• Garlic powder
• Onion powder
• Paprika
• Black pepper

No chili, no dairy, no eggs, no gluten as direct ingredients. The seasoning does not include any heat component, making this item neutral regardless of what spice levels the rest of the table has ordered. Ingredient lists may vary slightly by location and supplier.

What Makes Box of Fries Worth Ordering

The value case for the Box of Fries is straightforward arithmetic. A single Fries side costs $3.99. Three people ordering separate fries sides costs $11.97. The Box of Fries costs $12 and gives the table more total volume than three individual portions would. Once your group hits three people or more and everyone wants fries, ordering the box is the better financial decision. It also reduces the number of containers on the table and makes the fries available in a central portion that people can take from as needed rather than guarding their own individual side.

It pairs naturally with any of the Hot Box options. Whether the table is sharing a Hot Box Tenders order at $50 or a Hot Box Sliders at $70, a Box of Fries on the side rounds out the group meal without requiring everyone to add individual sides to their personal order. If the group wants cheese sauce across the fries, a Large Dave’s Sauce or a few cups of Side of Cheese Sauce at $0.50 each gives the whole box a cheese upgrade at minimal additional cost.
