Applebee’s Menu Prices for Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner
Applebee’s opened in 1980 in Atlanta, Georgia, founded by Bill and T.J. Palmer to serve great food at friendly prices. The idea caught on fast, turning Applebee’s into a neighborhood favorite nationwide. Over time, the menu expanded—from sizzling entrees to lighter fare—while keeping prices affordable.
Breakfast-style options (served at select locations) start around $7, lunch combos hover near $10, and hearty dinner plates often range from $12 to $18. Behind the scenes, a secret menu keeps things exciting, with fan-favorite hacks like a Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese or custom-stacked burgers.
Whether it’s $1 Drink Month, Half-Price Appetizers after 9, or a neighborhood celebration, Applebee’s always finds a reason to turn an ordinary day into something special.
