What Are The Jack in the Box Menu Prices?

Updated on September 6, 2026 | Written by Alec Pow
This article was researched using 10 sources. See our methodology and corrections policy.

Jack in the Box menu prices in 2026 generally run from about $1.79-$3.29 for the cheapest tacos, breakfast, and value items, $4.99-$8.49 for most full-size burgers, $5.49-$7.99 for chicken sandwiches and bowls, and roughly $9-$13+ for many combo meals. Prices vary by restaurant, franchisee, city, and whether you order in-store, through the Jack app, or through a delivery platform.

Current examples include a Jumbo Jack around $4.99-$5.29, Sourdough Jack around $6.99-$7.49, Ultimate Cheeseburger around $6.99-$7.79, Breakfast Jack around $3.29, and two tacos around $1.79-$1.99. A premium burger combo can now reach roughly $11-$15+.

The biggest change from older Jack in the Box menus is not just inflation. The chain now leans much more heavily on bundled value offers, app deals, Munchie Meals, wraps, bowls, and rotating limited-time items, so comparing individual menu prices alone can miss the cheapest way to order.

What You’re Actually Ordering

Jack in the Box has a broader menu than a traditional burger-only fast-food chain. Burgers remain the core business, but the chain also sells tacos, egg rolls, chicken strips, breakfast sandwiches, croissants, burritos, protein bowls, curly fries, shakes, wraps, and rotating Munchie Meals.

Jack in the Box also serves its full menu throughout the day, including breakfast. The company’s current corporate description says many restaurants operate between 18 and 24 hours, rather than every location being open around the clock. This menu breadth makes price comparison more complicated because a customer can build a meal from several inexpensive value items, order a traditional burger combo, or buy a packaged deal containing several different products.

Current Burger Prices

Burger 2026 planning price
Jr. Jumbo Jack About $2.79-$3.29
Jumbo Jack About $4.99-$5.29
Jumbo Jack with Cheese About $5.49-$5.79
Sourdough Jack About $6.99-$7.49
Smashed Jack About $7.29-$7.49
Ultimate Cheeseburger About $6.99-$7.79
Bacon Ultimate Cheeseburger About $7.49-$8.49
Double Jack About $6.99-$7.99

There is meaningful variation even among recent menu sources. One current menu tracker lists the Ultimate Cheeseburger at $7.79, while another recently verified example puts it at $6.99. That is an $0.80 difference on a single sandwich, or about 11%.

The difference becomes larger once the order turns into a combo because fry size, drink size, location pricing, and upgrades can all change the final bill.

Old Menu Prices

The previous menu listed an Ultimate Cheeseburger at $4.89. A current planning price of $7.79 is $2.90 higher, an increase of about 59%.

The old Sourdough Jack was $4.89. At a current $7.29, it costs $2.40 more, or about 49% higher.

The Breakfast Jack has moved from the old $1.79 figure to roughly $3.29. That is an increase of $1.50, or about 84%.

The old table also showed two tacos for $0.99. A current price around $1.79 represents an $0.80 increase, or roughly 81%.

Those changes explain why an older full-menu price table can look believable while being far outside the range a customer actually sees at the register.

Chicken, Breakfast, Sides and Drinks

Current Jack in the Box chicken prices put 10 chicken nuggets around $5.49, the Cluck Sandwich around $6.49, Spicy Cluck Sandwich around $6.79, four chicken strips at $7.49, and a Chicken Teriyaki Bowl around $7.99.

Breakfast remains one of Jack’s lower-cost sections. Current all-day breakfast pricing puts Hash Brown Sticks around $2.29, the Breakfast Jack at $3.29, Sausage Croissant at $5.29, Supreme Croissant at $5.79, and Loaded Breakfast Sandwich at $6.29.

Sides currently range from about $2.29 for small/value fries to roughly $5.99 for three egg rolls. Medium curly fries are around $3.49, large curly fries about $4.29, and onion rings about $3.79.

Current drink pricing puts coffee around $2.19, a medium fountain drink around $2.69, iced coffee around $3.29, a classic shake around $4.99, and an Oreo shake around $5.49.

Jack in the Box combo meal

What $5, $10, $15 and $25 Buy

With $5: one of the easiest options is two tacos at about $1.79 plus a Jr. Jumbo Jack around $2.79. The combined total is approximately $4.58 before tax.

Another budget combination is a Breakfast Jack for $3.29 plus two tacos for $1.79, totaling about $5.08. That misses a strict $5 budget slightly but shows why mixing breakfast and value items can be cheaper than buying a traditional combo.

With $10 (about 20 minutes at $30 per hour): a Jumbo Jack around $4.99 plus medium curly fries at $3.49 and two tacos at $1.79 totals about $10.27. Drop the tacos and the burger-and-fries order is roughly $8.48 before tax.

With $15: an Ultimate Cheeseburger at $7.79, medium curly fries at $3.49, and a medium fountain drink at $2.69 total about $13.97. Add local sales tax and the order will be close to or above $15 in many areas.

With $25: two Jumbo Jacks at $4.99 each, two medium curly fries at $3.49 each, and two medium fountain drinks at $2.69 each total $22.34 before tax. That is a reasonable two-person meal without relying on a promotional bundle.

The Value Menu Has Changed

The old idea of a Jack in the Box value menu built around several $1 products is outdated. The chain still has inexpensive tacos and smaller sandwiches, but its current value strategy relies heavily on bundles and app offers.

Jack in the Box officially launched Munch Better Deals starting at $7. The lineup included complete meals aimed at breakfast, lunch, and late-night customers rather than a traditional list of dollar-menu items.

The Brunchie Meal included a Breakfast Jack, hash brown, three French Toast Sticks, syrup, and small coffee. The Lunchie Meal included a Double Jr. Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger or Really Big Chicken Sandwich, 10 Tiny Tacos, seasoned curly fries, and a drink.

In January 2026, Jack added another current value play with two Jack Wraps for $6. Customers can mix grilled or crispy versions.

At $3 per wrap, the two-for-six promotion competes directly with smaller sandwiches rather than premium burgers costing $7-$8+ each.

Are Munchie Meals Cheaper?

Current menu tracking puts a standard Munchie Meal around $12.49. The exact item mix changes because Jack frequently rotates the featured entrée and limited-time collaborations.

The bundle can make sense when you actually want everything included. During Jack’s 2026 Hot Ones collaboration, the Munchie Meal included an entrée, two tacos, regular curly fries, and a drink. The company also added themed loaded fries and lower-priced Munch Better Deals.

Jack’s 2026 Hot Ones Munchie Meal shows why a static menu table becomes obsolete quickly. That promotion ran only from June 1 through July 22, 2026.

For a rough comparison, a $7.49 burger, $3.49 curly fries, $1.79 tacos, and $2.69 drink total $15.46 separately. A similarly structured bundle at $12.49 would save about $2.97, or roughly 19%. The actual savings depend on which entrée and sizes are included.

Delivery Can Cost More

A restaurant’s app or counter price should not automatically be assumed to match third-party delivery pricing. Delivery platforms can show higher menu prices, plus delivery fees, service fees, small-order charges, and driver tips.

If an in-store meal costs $12 and third-party menu markup and fees add a hypothetical $5 before tip, the same food becomes $17, a 42% increase. This is why customers looking specifically for the cheapest Jack in the Box price should compare the restaurant’s own ordering channel before using delivery.

The exact difference varies by restaurant and platform, so there is no reliable national delivery surcharge to add to every menu item.

Jack in the Box Today

Robert Oscar Peterson opened the first Jack in the Box in San Diego in 1951. The company’s current corporate history still identifies the chain with its early drive-thru innovation, wide menu, and all-day breakfast.

Jack in the Box is not currently owned by Ralston Purina. It is operated and franchised by publicly traded Jack in the Box Inc., which trades on Nasdaq under the ticker JACK.

As of the third quarter ended July 5, 2026, Jack in the Box reported 2,115 restaurants. Of those, 149 were company-owned and 1,966 were franchised. The chain said it operated across 25 states, Mexico, and Guam.

The company previously owned Del Taco but completed the $119 million sale of Del Taco to Yadav Enterprises in December 2025.

When Jack’s Pricing Makes Sense

Makes sense if:

  • You mix smaller value items instead of automatically buying a premium combo.
  • A current Munch Better Deal, wrap promotion, or Jack Pack app offer matches what you want.
  • You want breakfast outside traditional breakfast hours.
  • You compare the local restaurant price instead of relying on a nationwide menu list.

Costs rise quickly if:

  • You turn every premium sandwich into a large combo.
  • You add a $5+ shake instead of a fountain drink.
  • You order several sides individually instead of checking current bundles.
  • You use third-party delivery without comparing the restaurant’s direct price.
