Pub-Inspired QSR Fries

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Wendy's Bacon Pub Fries are Here for a Limited Time

— September 2, 2020 — Lifestyle
The Wendy's Bacon Pub Fries are a new offering from the QSR brand that will provide patrons with a pub-inspired side to enjoy on its own or with their choice of sandwich. The fries start off with the brand's signature natural cut fries that have been seasoned with sea salt before being topped with shredded cheddar cheese, applewood smoked bacon and a warm beer cheese sauce. These ingredients work together to create an indulgent side dish that is perfect for those seeking out a more substantial side to enjoy with a burger or as a snack.

The Wendy's Bacon Pub Fries are priced at $2.89 and are available now for purchase at participating locations nationwide, but only for a limited time.
