About Cheddar’s
Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen is an American casual restaurant chain. It is known for food made from scratch and generous portions. Some apps still list it as Cheddar’s Casual Cafe, but it is the same restaurant.
The menu is built around comfort food. Think chicken tenders, smoked baby back ribs, steaks, chicken pot pie and warm honey butter croissants. Most main dishes come with two sides, which makes the price feel fair for the amount you get.
Common sides include mashed potatoes, corn, rice, fries, green beans, coleslaw and steamed broccoli.
How to Read These Prices
A few simple points will help you understand the numbers in the tables.
• These are delivery-app prices. Restaurants often charge less when you eat inside, so your in-restaurant bill may be lower.
• A plus sign on the app means your choices, like a sauce or an extra, can change the final price.
• Prices differ by location. A restaurant in Texas may charge a different amount than one in Colorado.
• Tax, tip and delivery fees are not included.
• Calories are shown as listed on the app. Two numbers (for example 705/820) mean two versions of the dish, such as chicken or salmon.
