One thing to be clear about up front: this page prints calories, because calories are the figures we have verified for all 77 items. Protein, sodium, fat, and other nutrients are published by Burger King in the Nutrition Explorer, and this page does not reproduce per-item figures for them, because they are not in the verified data behind this page. If you need the sodium in a Whopper or the protein in a chicken sandwich, the Nutrition Explorer is the source — and this page tells you exactly where to look.
Calories across the menu
Calories are the most useful single number on a fast-food menu, and the spread at Burger King is wide. The lightest item on the menu is BK Café Coffee at 5 calories. The heaviest is the Bacon King at 1,260 calories. Between those two points, the menu breaks down by category like this:
| Category | Items | Lowest calories | Highest calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Burgers | 18 | 260 (Hamburger) | 1,260 (Bacon King®) |
| Chicken & Fish | 14 | 110 (Chicken Fries, 4 pc) | 780 (Fiery Royal Crispy Chicken) |
| Breakfast | 16 | 270 (Quaker® Oatmeal) | 800 (Egg-Normous Burrito®) |
| Fries & Sides | 8 | 45 (Dips & Sauces) | 510 (Hash Browns, Medium) |
| Drinks & Coffee | 7 | 5 (BK Café Coffee) | 290 (Soft Drink, Medium) |
| Desserts & Shakes | 8 | 200 (Soft Serve Cone) | 610 (OREO® Shake) |
| Value bundles & kids meals | 6 | 590 (King Jr. Nuggets Meal) | 1,050 ($7 Trio) |
The burger category has the widest range — 1,000 calories between the Hamburger and the Bacon King. Breakfast is the most consistent category: everything sits between 270 and 800 calories, and most items cluster between 350 and 620. Drinks are the category where the choice matters most for the least money: a medium soft drink is 290 calories, while a medium BK Café Coffee is 5 and a medium tea is 120, all for $2.49 or less.
The full per-item calorie table is on the Calories page. The homepage has the same items with prices attached.
The heaviest and lightest choices
If you want the lightest meal on the menu, the numbers point in one direction. A Hamburger (260 calories), a Side Salad (190 calories), and a BK Café Coffee (5 calories) come to 455 calories for $2.49 + $3.49 + $1.99. A Cheeseburger (300 calories) with a Side Salad (190 calories) and a medium tea (120 calories) comes to 610 calories.
At the other end, the heaviest single items are the Bacon King (1,260 calories), the Triple Whopper (1,250 calories), and the Texas Double Whopper (1,120 calories). The heaviest bundle is the $7 Trio at 1,050 calories. A Whopper with Cheese (790 calories) with medium fries (370 calories) comes to 1,160 calories before a drink — and a medium soft drink adds another 290, taking the combination to 1,450. These are computed totals from the verified per-item figures, not estimates.
The single most misleading item on the menu is the medium Hash Browns. At $2.49 and 510 calories, it has more calories than the Sausage Biscuit (440), the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Croissan'wich (360), and the Royal Crispy Wrap (310). It looks like a side dish and eats like a sandwich.
Protein, sodium, fat, and allergens
This is where this page stops printing numbers and starts pointing at the source. Burger King publishes protein, sodium, total fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars, and allergen information for every item in its Nutrition Explorer. The verified data behind this page covers calories for all 77 items; it does not include per-item protein or sodium figures, so this page does not print them. Printing them from memory or from an unverified source would be worse than not printing them.
The most-asked question in this group is "how much sodium in a Whopper." The honest answer is that the sodium figure is published in Burger King's Nutrition Explorer, and it is not in the calorie data this page is built from. If sodium is the number you need — for blood pressure, for a diet plan, for any medical reason — check the Nutrition Explorer for the current figure rather than trusting a number copied onto a third-party page.
The same applies to allergens. Burger King lists allergens — including milk, egg, wheat, soy, and others — per item in the Nutrition Explorer. Allergen information changes when recipes change, and it is not safe to copy a static allergen list from a third-party site. If you have an allergy, check the Nutrition Explorer for the item you are about to order, and tell the restaurant when you order. This page does not list allergens per item, deliberately.
How to use the Nutrition Calculator
The Nutrition Calculator page is the tool version of this page. It lets you pick items from the menu and adds up the calories as you go, using the same verified figures as the tables here. It is the fastest way to answer the practical question — what does this meal actually come to — because it does the addition for you. A Whopper (710) plus medium fries (370) plus a medium soft drink (290) is 1,370 calories. A Whopper Jr. (340) plus a Side Salad (190) plus a medium tea (120) is 650. The calculator runs the same arithmetic on any combination you build.
Frequently asked questions
How much sodium in a Whopper?
The sodium figure is published in Burger King's official Nutrition Explorer. It is not printed here because the verified data behind this page covers calories for all 77 items, not per-item sodium. Check the Nutrition Explorer for the current figure.
Where can I find Burger King nutrition facts?
Burger King's official Nutrition Explorer publishes full nutrition facts — calories, protein, sodium, fat, carbohydrates, and allergens — for every item. The calorie figures on this site are checked against that source and against the Nutritionix branded Burger King menu, both checked in November 2026.
What is the healthiest thing at Burger King?
By calories alone, the lightest items are BK Café Coffee (5 calories), dips and sauces (45 calories), medium tea (120 calories), and the Side Salad (190 calories). The lightest sandwich is the Hamburger at 260 calories, and the lightest breakfast item is Quaker Oatmeal at 270 calories. "Healthiest" depends on more than calories — protein, sodium, and allergens all matter, and those figures are in the Nutrition Explorer.
Does Burger King publish allergen information?
Yes, in the official Nutrition Explorer, per item. Check it for the item you are ordering, and tell the restaurant about your allergy when you order.
