Halloween is right on top of us, but most chains have already rolled out what they’re going to roll out for that holiday. An exception is Andy’s Frozen Custard, which has special treats for the weekend.
Freddy’s has some new Hershey-oriented items, but they’re available through early next year.
Meanwhile, some chains are jumping ahead to Christmas, notably Scooter’s Coffee and Sonic Drive-In.
New York City-based Just Salad is focused on a different season, basketball, with a salad developed in collaboration with Knicks superstar Jalen Brunson. It has a lot of protein.
Another New York-based chain, 7th Street Burger, has a new garlicky item.
On the beverage front, McDonald’s has some indulgent new drinks, The Great Greek has a new lemonade-based “refresher,” and Islands has a seasonal variation on its Mai Tai.
There are new seasonal lineups at Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar, Margaritas Mexican Restaurant, Farmer Boys, Logan’s Roadhouse, and Taco Cabana.
Chipotle is bringing back its brisket, Jollibee has new honey-garlic options, Mountain Mike’s Pizza has pepperoni pizza with hot honey, and Via 313 has combined four pizzas into one.
Pollo Campero has new sauces (and has made its original one available on whatever you want), and Velvet Taco’s Weekly Taco Feature is inspired by Korean fried chicken.
