Kids meal prices
The kids menu is short: four King Jr. Meals. The hamburger and cheeseburger meals cost almost the same, so the cheeseburger is the better pick unless your child avoids cheese. The 6 piece nuggets meal is the most filling and the dearest.

What is in each King Jr. Meal
Every kids meal is built the same way: a small main, a kids side and a kids drink. The table shows the main on its own, so you can see how much of the meal it makes up.

Healthiest kids meal
For the lightest King Jr. Meal, choose the 4 Pc. Chicken Nuggets King Jr. Meal as the main, applesauce as the side and apple juice or milk as the drink. That meal comes to about 85 calories with apple juice. Fries and a soda add considerably more; the numbers for every option are on our low calorie Burger King page.
Kids meal or separate items?
A Hamburger and an apple juice drink cost $5.38 together on delivery menus, more than the whole Hamburger King Jr. Meal ($4.79), which also includes a side. For small appetites the kids meal is the cheaper way to order; for a hungrier child, a 4 pc. nuggets ($2.49) plus a side may be enough.
Prices vary a lot between restaurants
Kids meals had some of the widest price ranges on the menu: the Cheeseburger King Jr. Meal went from $3.99 to $10.98. The top of that range comes from restaurants that list kids meals at a much higher delivery price, so it pays to compare and to order through the BK app for pickup.
For older kids: beyond the kids menu
When a kids meal is no longer enough, these regular menu items are the next step up — small portions at moderate prices.
