Kids meal vs Ranger meal
The standard kids list includes mini cheeseburgers, chicken tenders, grilled chicken, steak bites, macaroni and cheese and an all-beef hot dog. Ranger meals are positioned as larger child-focused portions and currently include a Chicken Critters basket, Andy’s Steak and a rib basket. Compare the protein, included sides and drink rather than choosing only by the headline item.
For allergy or nutrition questions, verify the exact current item and its components. Breaded chicken, buns, sauces, cheese, fries, cooking surfaces and shared preparation can matter. Use the allergen guide and official-linked nutrition resource for the final decision.
How to build a complete child meal

| Side | Included side choices and any upgrade charge. |
| Drink | Whether a drink is included and what sizes/refills apply. |
| Sauce / topping | Added cheese, chili, dipping sauce or other modifier. |
| Allergen / nutrition | Current restaurant ingredient and nutrition information. |
Kids menu FAQ
What Kids & Ranger items are currently listed?
The global menu lists six standard kids choices and three Ranger meals. See the complete table above.
Is a Ranger meal the same size as a standard kids meal?
Ranger meals are positioned as larger child-focused options; verify exact portion and inclusions on the local menu.
Do kids meal prices vary?
Yes. This guide uses an independent planning range; the selected restaurant controls the current price.
Where can I check allergen information?
Use the official-linked Nutrition & Allergens portal and tell the restaurant about an allergy before ordering.
Compare kids choices by preparation
Preparation matters as much as the name of the protein. Grilled Chicken and Lil’ Dillo Steak Bites are different from breaded Jr. Chicken Tenders or the Chicken Critters Ranger basket. Mini-Cheeseburgers and the All-Beef Hot Dog introduce bun and topping choices, while Macaroni and Cheese is a different meal style again. If you are comparing nutrition, allergens or how well an item travels for takeout, keep those preparation differences in the comparison.
A useful ordering approach is to choose the entrée first, then review the side and drink shown by the local menu. Avoid assuming that every kids item has identical inclusions just because it appears in the same menu section. If a child has an allergy, verify the entrée, bun or breading, side, dipping sauce and any shared-preparation concern separately.
