Buffalo Wild Wings Sides Menu with Prices & Calories 2026
Everyone goes to Buffalo Wild Wings for the wings but the sides are what actually complete the meal. Whether you’re building a game-day spread, rounding out a combo, or just want something to snack on while the game runs, B-Dubs has a solid lineup of sides worth knowing about. This is a complete breakdown of every item on the Buffalo Wild Wings sides menu with current prices, calorie counts, and which ones are actually worth ordering.
Every Side on the Buffalo Wild Wings Menu
French Fries ~$5.99 | ~300 cal
French Fries are the default, go-to side at Buffalo Wild Wings and for good reason. They’re thin-cut, consistently crispy, and perfectly seasoned exactly what you want when you’re pulling apart saucy wings. At around 300 calories for a regular order, they sit in the reasonable range for a fried side. They’re also one of the few sides at B-Dubs that is gluten-friendly (no breading), making them a safer option for anyone avoiding wheat.
The fries are cooked in beef tallow at most locations, which gives them a richer, slightly more savory flavor than typical vegetable oil fries. Vegetarians and vegans should note this before ordering.
Beer-Battered Onion Rings ~$5.99 | ~440 cal
The Beer-Battered Onion Rings are a serious upgrade from standard onion rings. The beer batter creates a thicker, crispier coating with a subtle malt flavor that plain flour batter just can’t replicate. Each ring has a satisfying crunch on the outside and a tender, sweet onion center. They come served with B-Dubs Dip the house signature sauce that’s tangy, creamy, and addictive enough to order extra.
At around 440 calories, they’re more indulgent than the fries, but the flavor payoff is genuinely worth it. They’re one of the most underrated sides on the entire BWW menu.
Mac & Cheese ~$5.99 | ~390 cal
Buffalo Wild Wings Mac & Cheese is the comfort side on the menu creamy, cheesy, and satisfying. It’s not a basic boxed mac situation; B-Dubs serves a properly sauced, full-portion mac that works as a side but is filling enough to stand alone as a lighter meal. At approximately 390 calories, it sits in the moderate range for the calorie count.
It’s a particularly popular order for the kids menu, but plenty of adults order it too especially alongside spicy wings, where the creaminess cuts through the heat nicely
Mozzarella Sticks ~$7.99 | ~560 cal
Mozzarella Sticks at Buffalo Wild Wings are the bar-food classic done right crispy golden exterior, gooey melted mozzarella inside, served with a side of marinara for dipping. At around $7.99 they’re priced slightly higher than the other sides, which reflects the fact that they’re more of a shareable appetizer-style portion than a simple side.
The key is ordering them fresh mozzarella sticks that have been sitting get rubbery fast. Ask for them to come out right away and eat them hot.
Potato Wedges ~$5.99 | ~380 cal
Potato Wedges are the thicker, heartier alternative to French Fries for anyone who wants more substance with their meal. They’re seasoned with a savory spice blend and have a satisfying bite crispy outside with a fluffy potato interior. At ~380 calories they’re comparable to the onion rings on the calorie front, but they’re a more filling side thanks to the potato density.
They’re available at most B-Dubs locations but worth confirming locally as availability can vary.
Carrots & Celery with Ranch ~$2.99 | ~80 cal
The Carrots & Celery side is the lowest-calorie option on the Buffalo Wild Wings sides menu by a significant margin around 80 calories total, which barely registers compared to any of the fried options. They come with a side of ranch or bleu cheese dressing for dipping. It’s a smart order for anyone watching their intake who still wants something to snack on between wings.
This side is also one of the few items on the BWW menu that is both gluten-free and vegan-friendly (if you skip the dressing, which contains dairy and egg).
Side Salad (Garden) ~$4.99 | ~120 cal
The Garden Side Salad is exactly what it sounds like mixed greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions with your choice of dressing. It’s not a showstopper, but it’s a genuinely useful option for anyone who wants something fresh alongside a heavy wing order. Order it without croutons if you’re avoiding gluten or watching carbs.
At around $4.99 it’s the most affordable standalone green option on the menu, and it’s a reasonable choice for anyone who wants to balance out a higher-calorie main.
What Comes with BWW Combo Meals?
Most Buffalo Wild Wings combo meals including the 6-piece, 10-piece, and 15-piece wing combos come with French Fries as the standard included side. At select locations you can substitute for Onion Rings or another side for an upcharge, though availability varies. Always ask your server which substitutions are available before ordering.
